    Can you feed Explode (pig feed) to a steer?

    The Sunglo version of optiflex is called explosion...maybe they got the names mixed up!!  We have used explosion on steers and it works great

    Show Goats

    We also are getting into the Goat business, well at least for 4-h.  This will be our first time with even a goat on the farm.  Is there anything special about bathing them?  I am sure it is not as necessary as a steer or heifer, but would like to keep them white?  Any thoughts?  Also anything...

    Wow, Taylor Swift n/c

    HUGE George Strait fan, to me she is good, but not in the catagory of any of her opponets for entertainer of the year or female vocolist.  On a good note, if you are going to talk about songwriting, you will have to mention Jamey Johnson... he looks like a rough critter, but he sure can write...
