    Poisonious Spiders

    I guess this a question for the Texas or better yet Central Texas folks. Three days ago I got bit/stung by something while I was picking pecans from our tree. Wasn't a snake, I know that because I was holding down a branch so I could get the pecans. At first I thought it was a wasp but that got...

    email scam or legit?

    Ya know, this is a scam. It sounds like some people need a good firewall and e-mail protection. I don't know if I should reccomend this on the boards but I use EZ Firewal and E-Mail protection. On the E-Mail side of this program, you can designate who you can RECEIVE e-mail from. The rest goes...

    Farm Gate Values

    Iluv ya iluvabeef but who wrote this, some ecnomist or someone? I think it's just a way to sell something like scales,feed and some kind of new formula that the economist or theroist can come up with. I'm sorry , but I sell my calves at the market price. If it's good, great, if not , I still...

    Vac 34

    I was watching Supeorior, (how the sam hill do you spell that) Auction and they had a lot of steers that were 'All natural and Vac 34' . I maybe dumb but I have no idea what Vac34 means. Please tell me. I think they come up with these new terms just to confuse people like me. Of course, it...

    I hate wild cattle.

    Sorry for the luck. I've done that very same thing and it gets me to thinking, 'Golf, why don't you just bail out of this and play golf everyday'. It passes though. On the plus side, you could be doing that in 96 degree heat with about 89% humidity. I know that's not much comfort. Good Luck Dick

    Angus/brangus

    Jim, are you looking for a registered bull or just a good bull? Are EPD's a concern for you? How about Red Brangus, you looking for that? There is a sign for Brangus bulls out on FM609 between the Muldoon turnoff and La Grange. That's about all I know for black brangus around here. I've never...

    Questions to ask when buying a farm....

    Lammie Wrote: I don't know of any Texan that would give up mineral rights. Not me anyway. Also, I don't know about any other state but Texas, but, if you have a pipeline (gas,oil, or whatever) you can't build within about 100' of the pipeline. Learned that when we built our house. It was...

    Developing an Eye for Cattle and a ear for BS

    CB, like you have taught me, a good Hereford (polled) bull and a moderate fraimed BRANGUS cow and you will ring the bell at the salebarn. I am working towards that and will be more than happy to take what I get at the barn. A grass farmer first and a cattleman or woman last. Dick

    Cow Laying Down

    I guess I didn't give enough info. She did have labored breathing and when the vet came out yesterday morning, he checked her temp,100 degrees, and gave her a shot of LA. Wormed her and the rest of the cows after he left. Checked on her in the PM and she was up and bellering at me for some cubes...
