    First branding done

    I agree. When my uncle had his cows he always dragged them to the fire. I helped out on several occasions. My profile pic is from one of those brandings. One of the riders was not watching out for those of us on the ground and pulled a calf right into me as I was holding another one. It...

    First branding done

    A buddy talked me into dragging mine to the fire a couple years ago, that turned out to be cluster ****, and took longer than it should have. I won't make that mistake again.

    It's the fumes that explode.

    No doubt they are part of the problem.

    Daily Chuckle

    I know of a woman who lit a cigarette while having a can of gas in her trunk while parked in a closed garage. It didn't end well for her at all.

    That is the problem, no competition. I think it all started with medical insurance and it has been snowballing ever since.

    Mornign chore

    I think our water cost us a little over $3000 per year for about 70 acres. We have all gated pipe; it sometimes is a pain because I need help to pick it up in fall and put it out in the spring. Then there is the struggle of leaves clogging up the holes. I'm planning on putting in a bubbler...

    Mornign chore

    There are times I think it sure would be nice to have a pivot, but then I think of the cost to have it put in. I'm not sure that it would be worth it.

    Hello from Deep East Texas

    You guys are getting all the rain and up here we can't even buy a decent rain. I'm thankful for the 2/10ths we got last week, and maybe 1/2 inch from the storm before that. I finally got water running on the fields monday.

    Close to $2.00 killer bulls

    You must have yours trained to drop before getting in the trailer🤣 . Mine usually drop in the trailer.

    Cattle vaccines

    At branding my calves get Vision 7, Once PMH IN, and Vista 5 Pre-wean: Vision 7, Once PMH IN, and Vista 5. I also deworm at that time with Safeguard.

    Feeding calves for weaning/ holding

    That must take forever. Here it is not uncommon to sell them in cuts of 60 or whatever would make a pot load. Sometimes they may say take 10 or more. I strive to get most of my calves near the same size as they seem to sell better in larger groups. I think the sale last January when I sold...

    Feeding calves for weaning/ holding

    Let me get this straight, they sell everything as singles? How many head do they normally do? that just seems like it would take forever.

    ATV

    I have seen a few of those listed, and from what I understand they are Chinese junk. There is a dealer in Lander that used to sell and service them, but he had problems getting parts. He will no longer work on them. There are stories on the net about some that blew the motor with very few hours.

    ATV

    That is why I bought a ATV, just didn't want to spend that much. I would have liked to have a side by side, it would make it easier for dad to go out with me. Maybe one day. There was a Polaris Ranger single cab with hard doors, and probably had heat and A/C that had the price in the window...

    I think the insurance racket has a lot to do with the hospital cost. If I had insurance they would have been billed $2700, and I would have never even questioned it. Obama care made things even worse. Of course every time government tries to fix something they usually end up making it much...

    They are going to build a new hospital here that is not affiliated with the current hospital. I think they just broke ground, unless the new building is for something else, but I am pretty sure it is for the new hospital. I'm not so sure that the community can support two hospitals.

    ATV

    Well I don't it now. I went and bought a brand new 2024 Polaris Sportsman 450. I had found a used 2018 Arctic Cat Altera 500 with only 354 miles on it for $6600 before taxes, and I was going to buy it. I then went into the Polaris dealer and they had a brand new Polaris on sale for $6500...
