Find an old section of hog flooring and use a cutting wheel on a grinder to cut it to size. Sometimes the guys that build these buildings have left over pieces they will give you.

A Carney passed out in the tie out stalls laying between the bedded down heifers.  He still had his pants on so I don't think the heifers got violated. Lucky he didn't get crushed.

You may want to take a look at Strep Suis as the cause.  http://www.thepigsite.com/articles/4385/streptococcus-suis-disease-in-pigs/ Also, go ahead and vaccinate both of them with a booster dose.

The one thing that I have noticed this year is that some of the bigger players that have had an online sale in the past are going back to a phone bid off.  They post the photos and videos at an online site for viewing only.  I am trying to figure out the cost and benefit rationalization for...

Cunia- In amps. I don't even think I have a scribe anymore.

As far as the tail head issues, I think that is another calf in the background. Her actual hip and tail head look pretty good to me.

There is a pumpkin patch about 2 miles outside of a small town in Nebraska that gets a ton of traffic.  It is on a gravel road and produced a dangerous amount of dust.  Last year the county covered it with a "no dust" gravel and it really worked.  I don't know what they call it but it is red in...

There was no way to make an informed decision if you were trying to by online- site unseen. I thought the first day prices were a little high- over $4000 average. On the second day if you did your homework and had a game plan you could get some buys. I would give Alan a call and see what...

I stood by the chute while a vet palpated about 1000 bred cows for a sale at a large commercial outfit.  Anything that was short bred or open (and reproductively sound) I sorted off for recips.  Many of the open cows he called a "one hole'er". The result of a vaginal wall tear during calving. ...

Buy an insurance policy that lists you as the "loss payee".

Virgin heifers do not clip the udder.  Cow calf pair clip the udder to clean up any long hairs and stragglers, then oil the udder real good to make it shine. Have fun.

Ildeno was moderate in frame.  Tim Ohlde owned him then.  We had some Ildeno x Angus cows we loved and bred them to Cunia.  Those calves were killer and would definitely work today. 

The method of action for Lute is regression of the Corpus Leteum.  You have to have a developed CL for it to work.  When implantation occurs the CL will develop to produce progesterone and maintain the pregnancy.  After fertilization you have to give the CL a chance to develop so that you have a...

Free choice creep feed if you want.  Most of the time we don't offer them anything while they are tied up. They will almost suck the cow inside out when you put them back together.

I just got my Weaver Leather Catalog.  I didn't know they had that much stuff. Do they have dealers or do you need to buy direct from them?

What are we talk'in about? A dispersal like: "We are done" or "Our herd is so screwed up we need to clean house and start over". The latter would not be very shocking for most.

Based on semen price it looks like W/C Loaded Up is the hottest bull today.

Just top 5 bulls and top heifers as well as averages.  I didn't get to see the cattle this year so I don't have a favorite.
