Have a 2016 model 1000 poundish heifer, pulled a dead calf this spring, and it was a very hard pull. She has been with the bull since. Have seen her cycling and serviced the last couple months, and have decided she isn't going to be able to take. I'm trying to figure out what to do with her...

I used 1x6x16 rough cut oak boards, spaced 5" apart. Used RR ties as posts. Concreted in the ground. Built 6'4" tall. Put upright 1x6 between the 8 feet post spacing. Alleyway going to chute has post spacing of 4'. Used upright 1x6 in alley between posts also. Sides of alley are pretty dang...

If there is any chance you'll have more cattle in the future, make it larger. You could always put a large trap before the pen starts. Slowly feed you pen from the larger trap. Keeps the pressure off your panels. When I built ours last Fall, I asked every person around us for advice. Looked...

Beautiful soil.

We have a Kubota 7040. Also rides rough. Have played with different pressures. Fluid filled rears. Do many of y'all run fluid in fronts w a loader

Sounds like a good friend you have.

Thin pants. Thin vented shirts. GOOD SOCKS. Breathable boots. Brimmed hat. Have a drawer full of shorts, but haven't worn any in years. I'm hard on my shins. Need all the protection i can get.

The joys of using older equipment. I do hope the season gets better for you all. Looks like we may get a chance to cut this weekend. Get to use our new to us disc mower. The long and slow days using the 501 sickle mower are over…knock on wood.

Just want to thank y'all for walking me through this. You have all be a wealth of knowledge since i joined the site.

Kenny Thomas - Y'all had any weather for haying yet? Saw a few cut thin stuff on Wednesday here. Other than that everyone is chomping at the bit, myself included. I've learned something already... I let them on it at the right time i'm pretty sure. Then thought too much, and gave the grasses...

I like the sound of that Jeanne. Fertility is so so, but is improving over time. We have about 30 acres in hay, and 25-30 in pasture. Running 20 pairs and 8 yearlings. Hoping this tighter rotation will convince me to graze hay ground in the future, and do as Jeanne suggested and hay what...

Appreciate it fellers.

Cut pastures up pretty good over the last two months. Left the option of cutting them in half again w temp fence if the grass will agree. Hoping i can get a move every 2-3 days as it is fenced right now. Made one pass through, then pulled the cattle cause it kept getting cold and grass wasn't...

Have locust posts that my Papaw put in in the 1950's and 1960's. In poor drainage areas they've rotted out, but the rest are in tact. The nails and staples have rotted before those posts. Lord help the man who needs to put anything in 50+ year old locust posts. Better have a good drill bit.

Got 55 cents and 65 cents Saturday.

Do you have a picture you could share with us? I know anything is possible. But that does seem highly unlikely. Would a buzzard know to go for the eyes first? Are they that highly aggressive? I'd say that could be effective against a grown cow… I've never dealt with them. But have...

What are y'alls thoughts on something like this? Good or bad or could go either way?

I love the feeder.

Lime supply nearby went for $6/ton I believe, last year. I see semi truck trailer in and out of the place all day long. They have a successful business plan, that's for sure.

Bush hog will work. Just leaves a line of thick grass that smothers out anything underneath, potentially.
