    Problems at NAILE?

    Someone is really setting a good example for the kids involved. But I guess in their little world they can justify it.

    Calf Breaking Question???????

    check under her chin. If she's got a big knot (sore) or an open wound (really sore) it would be smart to stop. We had one the same way and the knot under her chin was really tender. We stopped for a couple weeks and then started again with better results.

    Heard a New Gripe About Obama Last Night

    My 17 y.o. senior boy's lunch is at 10:30. He starts school at 7:00 in an "early bird" program and gets out at 2:15. It's a wonder someone doesn't get bit before he gets home to get a snack.

    When Should I start Winning Fill?

    We use the product all the time with good results. Most calves will eat it how ever you feed it. We usually start giving them a little of it when we tie them in the barn to blow them out or anything we do. Some will just pick at it so we mix a little sweet feed or something they really like to...

    THIS IS WHAT DROUGHT LOOKS LIKE ( not really cattle related)

    We can cuss and discuss these subjects till we're all standing in the welfare line. The point is that we're doing exactly what the politicians want us to- standing divided and arguing amongst ourselves. They know we will never unite under one cause again ( as we did in the late 1700's and...

    Alphatoxin and the midwest corn crop

    Saw a few loads rejected at a local river terminal last week. Funny thing is the corn went 2 miles down the road to another river terminal and it passed the test. Something smells awful fishy to me about the methods. I believe you can still feed it to fat cattle though, just not pregnant cows.
