[QUOTE="jilleroo, post: 1151830, member: 8192"] Ken, calves are always harder to pull backwards arent they, going against the hair I think. Havent pulled a calf for a long time - almot forgotten how! Our new molasses tanks are in place and the TruGraze stuff comes on Tues. We still have one M8U overhead 5000gal tank but the other one is collapsing in. We've got 1000 round and big square bales on hand and a heap of rhodes grass coming from up north near Townsville when its cut. So that's about as prepared as we can be. We've begun feeding hay here, our northern cattle are ok yet but our 400 agistment cows will be in trouble very soon. Still working out how we'll tackle that problem, our agistment seeking attempts having yielded nothing. Got rid of a horse today, a big very snorty chestnut gelding who was only eating feed. He can really scat and would be unbeatable in adult gymkhana events, if he didnt buck you off, so gave him to a young bloke doing horsebreaking. He's broken in but I had to drop a rope on him to catch him - I'm getting a bit old for that sort of stuff. [/QUOTE]
