    Large Animal Vets are gone

    There are three or four large animal vets here in Riverton. Although the one north of me should be retirement age, so he might have retired. I work with two out of the three others, and they are all probably 20 minutes or so away. The one vet does the sale barns preg testing. Fremont County...

    Apple cider vinegar

    I tried it last year, but it didn't seem to make that much of a difference. They still fought some, broke a couple post in the coral. No matter what they still have to establish a new pecking order. It might keep them from ganging up on the new bulls so much. Maybe I didn't used enough.

    Sizing up the bull

    I would just use some CDX plywood. When it delaminates just replace it. Should last a long time. I lined my budbox with some OSB and plywood I had lying around, been up there for around seven years so far and still looks in good shape.

    Sizing up the bull

    You could also look into using EPDM rubber roofing. I used some I had left over from a roofing job to put on a couple of my gates.

    Snotty nosed calves

    Mine have been wean for about six weeks, and I don't know about the mycoplasma.

    Snotty nosed calves

    OK, then maybe I don't have to do anything. I noticed it in the morning when I'm feeding them grain. I have not seen any with clear thin snot at least not yet. I guess I will keep an eye out for them. Yes I already gave them a nasal respiratory vaccine. I vaccinate at branding and I also...

    Ferappease

    We fence line wean as well, but I have not noticed the calves bawl all that much; the cows seem to bawl more than the calves. I tried the Sweetpro tubs with the stress relief one year and didn't notice that much difference.

    I was wondering if it would be worth it to put some on the calves just before taking them to the sale barn. I wonder if it would add any value, the stuff is pretty pricey.

    When I was in forth grade my class walked over to the old Breeze school for the art fair. It started raining, and would not let up. The teacher let all us kids run back to Sunset Elementary, I think it was about 5 or 6 blocks. I happened to have my jean jacket on, and did not get all that...
