[QUOTE="Buck Randall, post: 1671716, member: 38590"] Emergency work doesn't pay. I can't charge enough for a calving at midnight to really make it worth my while. Yet, I do it because it keeps clients happy, which keeps me in business for the more profitable work. Anyone who makes a living on cattle and only uses a veterinarian for emergencies is missing out on opportunity. I would encourage everyone to find time to sit down with their vet at least once a year to discuss ways to make their operation more profitable. A good vet will make you more money in that time than they ever will pulling a calf at midnight. You can farm without a vet. You can also farm without feeding any mineral, or only buying bulls for slaughter price. If you're in the business of making money, I don't recommend any of those three practices. [/QUOTE]
