This came through on FB and it is worth a look and a share.  Kudos to these men for doing it and for the message it conveys.  Let's see if it can get as many shares as the negative ones that the activists share to shock people.  This is so much better...

70 year old woman with a sick husband and she should have charges filed on her for animal neglect over a sick newborn?  99% would let it die and not think twice.  Its called infant mortality.  She was guilty of being too soft hearted.  You cant save them all no matter how hard you try.  If it...

Really sounds like dummy calf.  Colostrum is key and monitoring is pretty much all you can do.  The fact that the calf was pretty much left to it's own devices for the first few days does not bode well for recovery.  Keep it warm and make sure it is getting enough nutrients.  That is about all...

Just proving truth is stranger than fiction...had to check this out! In the Hindu religion, a house blessing is conducted before the people move in. With a new house, this is after construction is finished, but in a purchased house it will be done after purchase but before moving in. The...

I don't know her but have been following the SD blizzard disaster.  I have read the other posts from first to last post on SP.  This young woman gets a pat on her back as do all who have stepped up to help these ranchers in their time of need.  Yes we have government intervention on some...

Hello and welcome to show cattle!  We too were horse people and still are and I know the vacuum you have and the power of it.  I don't believe it has the same power as a cattle blower.  You should be able to find a used blower if you don't want to buy new but we have has our blower we bought new...

They only show by age.  All breeds show together.  State Fair breaks them down by both breed and age.  Depending on where your stalls are make sure you allow enough time to get to the pen and if you can put someone at the arena.  Kids missed the classes last year because they didn't call them...

Sent you a PM :)

IF you have a heifer you feel is a good match then do it.  We started our child at 8 with a heifer that was average but she loved her boy and gave him the confidence to not be afraid.  One word of caution.  While she was very gentle sending a little one into a pen where not all the calves may be...

Just wanted to share that there IS integrity in business.  Midan Marketing based out of Chicago is owned by a North Dakota cattle loving man and a Kansas farm girl.  They market meat.  They posted this on their facebook page and I am very proud and not surprised by their standing up for...

Clever and very sly marketing at it's best.  The other poster said they didn't see any poking fun at the ag industry??? really?? Hmmm  Here is what I see Crow pecking a scarecrow.  Crows are often a symbol we associate with death.  Pumping a chicken with a large hypodermic needle to a...

Will you please post an address to make it easier to send some things please.  Sorry about your loss but there will be people to lend a had.  Livestock people are good ones.  So glad your stock is ok! 

hmmmm.  I've slept a lot since then but I am thinking we did one for our cousin about 6 years ago and I believe we paid about 400.00  or 500.00back then.  Again not cheap but the hides are beautiful and I have seen lesser quality ones sold at Denver and Fort Worth for 800.00+.  I buy leather as...

Moyle Tannery.  They did a buffalo hide for us that we shipped to them.  It takes a while but they do an excellent job.  http://www.moytown.com/

Teardrop would be our preference.  Not too big.  If you want the white "white", Stainbuster from Sullivans is our 1st choice but if I can't get that quickly then I take a bottle of Ivory Dishwashing liquid and add in 1/4 cup of blueing.  Mix well and with any of those whitening products the...

Consider the Exiss.  We have one.    We purchased the Exiss because the welds were better and the hardware was heavier and because it was not the 4Star name it was a bit cheaper.  Also the Warranty is 10 years and transferable.  Check them out.  Ask them who started the company.

Read the thread.  I agree that the judge should have declined due to a conflict of interest with his customers being in what appears to be a very small show.  That said, I think you have one of two choices here.  One is to be all about the politics of the situation.  Politics are in every facet...

Good idea.  I too have been going through the pics since I have a graduating Senior and getting them around for his party and came across these.  Lots of fun and years with livestock :) The cow with her tongue out is a granddaughter of the one he is sleeping on.  Miss Daisy photobombed him good!

Great that he is up!  He is just sore.  Be patient.  We had a reverse 120+ pull last year and it took her almost 3 days to even get up.  She is fine now.  May have to supplement with a bottle for a few days if need  be  and yes those big ones always seem a bit dumb.  But he is prolly really sore. 

It's in every industry.  Just read on a horse forum about a person asking about Ralgro for use in halter horses to increase the topline.  Just have to decide what line you walk.  Just because there are unethical people doesn't mean you have to be one.  Not how daddy raised me.
