    Pneumatic Tee Post Driver

    Pneumatic drivers are nice if you have the right setup. Some friends of ours own a road construction company so they have a sign truck. Of its many features it has a pneumatic driver mounted to the side of it on a flatbed. You can build some fence with that thing. They can easily turn in to more...

    Lies lies lies or honest mistake?

    I would give them a call and explain to them what happened, and that the tests confirmed it. I don't see any reputable breeder not trying to make this right.

    need help with THICK HEADED steer

    I had a heifer like that once, and we fixed it with a hot shot. I got on the halter and dad was behind her with a hot shot. You could pop her and she would take a step but then want to stop again. Every time she even thought about locking up she got popped. We did this for about 30 minutes for...

    Illegal Practices

    Airing-Literally pumping air under the skin to create fill(I've also heard of people using oil instead of air). Pumping-Shoving a tube down the calf's throat and filling it with some kind of fluid(Sprite, water, electrolytes, etc...) Twinning-Most shows outlaw this, but it still happens from...

    How much melatonin?

    What size tablets are you feeding? I've seen them anywhere from 3mg to 10mg. You need to feed about 100mg/day to see any difference. I would recommend the implants though. There's no comparison between the two. Their gonna be a little more expensive than feeding tablets, but it's worth it.

    Favorite Breeds?

    I'm also partial to Simmental for the reasons listed above and because that's what I started out showing. Two of the most well known bulls in our breed would be Meyer 734 and Dream On.

    Good Momma

    Get a milk cow and throw out there with them. She'll let anything suck on her, and you don't have to worry about her getting drained.

    Getting "The Hair" look

    Down here in our Texas "winter" we still rinse and blow dry every day. Just because it's cold and they'll grow hair isn't an excuse not to work it. If you don't it will get caked in mud like you said, it won't have an quality, and you won't be able to work with it. Granted it's not as big of a...

    Getting "The Hair" look

    Below is a link to the Hair Growth 101 thread in the Hall of Fame section. I would suggest reading it first. Contrary to popular belief you don't need a cooler to grow hair. I don't like double dip conditioner personally. A lot of people, myself included use Kleen Sheen. After I rinsing I spray...
