No offense taken. Have had two winters when I fed a group of horses and then a group of horses and small herd of cows on only straw for roughage. Up the grain and protein and all came out both times slick and fat.

We currently have the best all around dog we think we have ever had. She is a total package and will not leave my wife's side while she is outside. Bear is half Golden Retriever, half Dottie and looks like a large black lab. Most vocal dog we have ever had. She will bark, whine and carry on...

1st, 2nd, 3rd, all better than snowballs. No mold, if you are looking for hay cause you're out, it is better than nothing. Had a couple of years we fed straw, just upped our grain ration to offset loss of protein. They came through nice and slick.

Female donkeys = Jennies Intact male donkeys = Jacks Castrated male donkeys = Johns

Congratulations!! Completed projects and high placings, life is good!!

Saw a few of those in 4H goats. Can't say for sure, but thought it was when they were fed the generic "all stock" feed. Thinking it was the molasses or copper. Basically if I remember correctly, it is more common when hay is reduced and majority of feed comes from concentrates/bags/feed mill...

My 1902 2 row horse drawn corn planter with the optional "automatic marker arms".

Today's mentality, don't do anything about a problem, just relocate it and make it someone else's problem.

Stonewall, I am not aware of your experience, those on here that have similar equipment but way different results,, might discuss ground speed (gear) and rpm's. Maybe you are running it to fast and it is beating itself up? I do not know, but that might give more insight and help with keeping...

Congratulations. Nothing like baby critters.

Very interesting. Had no idea how it happened and glad both are not living.

Yes you can here in Indiana. BUT, you have to show in the beef class. That will put you at the bottom of the class quickly. My daughters showed some shorthorn/jersey cross heifers. Did good in the bucket calf class. Got butts kicked in beef class second year. Kicked butt in cow/calf class...

As one of my past students father in law told him, if it is a turd, you polish it, you only end up with a polished turd. They tore down the old farmhouse and built new. They are more than satisfied as they also saw more problems while tearing down that they wouldn't have known about.

It is a smell you never forget, can't explain to city folk, and will recognize as soon as you smell it!!!

If you know how to use a hot iron dehorner, get a piece of pipe, copper, thin wall metal, whatever the fits over the nub. Fashion a handle out of wood and heat with a propane torch and burn.

I partnered with an old guy that couldn't keep up his herd of shorthorns. I took the herd of 15 cows and a few heifers home and the first year bred them with what I had, a jersey bull. From those crosses we built a herd of cows that did well in the 4H ring for my girls as bucket calves and...

Mix meat tenderizer into a paste using water and put on it. It will draw out the stinger and or poison. Almost as good as scrap tobacco wad.

Congratulations GB. Looks like a beautiful home. Is it wheelchair/motorized chair accessible? Is it going to get noisy when school lets out? You get a wood shop built and you will find your heaven on earth on that property. When you get the hankering, go to the local sale barn, ride with a...

As a kid helped at the county fairgrounds pull post (most were old telephone poles cut down) 2 weeks before fair. They fenced in a lot of the grounds and grazed it, we are a free fair so all posts and fence removed for fair week then put back up. I was the chain kid, old timer using a...

I thought the same thing when I saw the pictures!
