Yep, further than I thought. I couldn't remember right off what was just West of Red River County. So he's around 100 miles from me here, give or take.

40 mile which way? I am 22 miles West of Texarkana. If I remeber correctly, sprigging will make a better stand quicker. Seeding is a long term type thing. Keeping a good coastal stand can be...

We normally wait until our bulls are nearly 2 years old before turning them out. Also, we like for our heifers to be at least 18 months old if not close to the 2 year mark themselves. You run the...

Mine is 8 years old, blonde headed and getting expensive to feed.
Oh, wait, you were talking about MECHANICAL gate openers. /forums/images/icons/grin.gif

After what I just paid for fertilizer, and knowing what fuel costs right now (it costs me ~$25 to run the 4320 for an hour) I am scared to ask our hay baler what he is charging this year. I shredded...

My '86 Bronco II 4x4 fills this need most of the time. Sometimes I miss the bed on my 1 ton diesel, but its not a big deal to hook up a small utility trailer or the welding trailer to the BII. Like...

I remember a book I read in my Architecture courses in college dealing w/ "space design" and its impact on society. Some scientist (don't remember the name or his associations) took a barn and...

are you feeding the cats? If so, I bet they would rather chase kitty vittles than mice/rats.
Of course, I have seen some rats that looked like they could give a cat a fair fight. You don't reckon it...

I have been involved in renting/leasing bulls before and it is kind of a hassle. You might want to look seroiusly at A.I. breeding. I know of some guys around here who will sell semen from their...

Not to sound smart, but if you want production then one cow is enough to justify a bull.
I have one bull on about 45 Mama cows and we have close to 100% calf crop every year in our little cow/calf...

Don't know about the filter, but the "bump" is apparently common. Mom has a 2002 'burb that does that and we have a 2000 shop truck at work that does it. On both vehicles if I get under it and have...

Surely there is a local feed/seed co-op or farm supply near by. How much are you needing? And spread over how many acres?

have you tried a search on Ebay? I saw some old Texas Cattleman's Assoc signs on there a while back. From what I have seen, you really can buy anything on Ebay.

That is pretty interesting. Around here, I know several breeders who would NOT have had that in the paper. They wouldn't want what could be deemed negative press concerning the genetics in their herd.

I prefer an aluminum wheel (reduction of unsprung weight and so forth) but... I bought a new set once for an old 3/4 ton and went a little long between initial installation and 1st retorqueing. It...

I strongly dislike crazy cattle. I have begun a policy of selling a crazy cow and her calf. No sense letting those genes get loose in the herd. However, a longtime friend and cattleman informed me...

barn is gone. pushed in w/ a trackhoe and buried. I saved just enough wood to make a frame for the large jigsaw puzzle that my Dad and my son finished together in the last few weeks before Dad passed...

Its kinda like the wiper controller issue they had. Supposedly only certain VIN trucks were affected. My truck had the problem, but not the right VIN. Took some stern words to get that $95 dollar...

Interesting. I know my sister had the work done at Coleman Chevrolet here in town and they supplied the insert. Her truck is a '99 w/ one of the last 350s but I wouldn't think something like that...

I don't know where you might get it. The situation w/ my sister's truck was the only time I had heard there was even a factory solution.

I assume you are talking about the pedal sticking in the idle position? You have to really mash it and then when it unsticks you end up slinging gravel everywhere? I have had this problem on every...

We usually try to feed out to around 1000 pounds, like Egon said. I like to keep them separated from other animals and on feed for 6 weeks prior to butchering. Seems that puts them just a touch past...

Most of the ones I have seen have been solitary as well. The problem w/ actually using them is that they rarely grow straight enough to make anything useful. I think they are very slow growing as...

I helped build a similar fence at a local Cowboy Action Shooting range. We used old bois d'arc posts that were donated from various fencing "upgrade operations". We didn't even bother drilling the...

Ok, here's a riddle. I recently bought a 97 K3500 Chevy crew cab dually. There are two dome light assy's, (a large center bulb w/ a "map light" on each side) one over the front seats and one over the...
