[QUOTE="CPL, post: 626097, member: 6346"] Well its almost that time again, mine are due in about a month. As some of you know, my cow and heifer are at my grandma and grandpa's house about 5 hours away. They're very healthy for their age, but its because of that age that I try to make them do as little as possible. Most times I am there atleast twice a month during the weekends and spend the summer there as well. I'm always there for vaccinations, weaning,etc. but one thing that I really can't be there is when they calve. So I'm always looking for ways to make that less amount of work on them. I was talking with them tonight about the whole calving situation and the weighing part came up as it usually does and so I went about surfing the web for better ways to handle it and came across this: [url=http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=e10cb012-c676-4a3c-b887-66ed6d0c78df]http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html ... ed6d0c78df[/url] . I like the part that its digital and there's not too much heavy lifting to be done. Moneys not really an issue.
