Recently I learned something that is worth repeating on here, though because of my job I'm not at liberty to post about the situation I learned about and was involved in. Instead, I will just share some information on cattle health and pasture management related to this case that you may find...

Apparently I lost the Golden Herd Member status (I'm guessing because the time I was able to had it for free ran out...), and now I'm getting this message that my inbox is full. Either I'm impatient or something, but after I deleted all my old PMs it's still showing up. Any idea why, and am I...

As it pretty much sums up what having cows is all about. :D "Cows Around" by Corb Lund and the Hurtin' Albertans (listen to the tune here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nk8-MqnHlw) Well everything is better with some cows around, Livin' in town sometimes brings me down. Let me bestow this...

I'm trying to look for a post that was on here some time back with a bunch of pictures people had posted for others who were working on the breed page project. Does anyone know where it is, or even if it's still around? I can't seem to find it for some reason. :/ Even if one doesn't exist, I...

Still kicking myself for not posting this sooner. Oh well. Anyhow, I went on a tour to a custom grazing ranching operation a ways out from where I live several weeks ago. I got a personal tour since I was one of a couple potential employees to help out on this operation. Didn't get the job of...

It's really interesting to learn about the various influences or infusions that were put into the Angus breed over the time it was first founded in around the mid 18th century. To say that the Angus breed is pure is undoubtedly saying that that person is quite ignorant and unknowledgeable...

I had always thought that rate of maturity is correlated with age of puberty and/or length of gestation. It turns out this is not the case! Rate of maturity, which is the time when an animal starts to deposit fat instead of muscle, has nothing to do with nor has any affect on when a heifer or...

Or during the time I've been on here? Just wondering, since I seem to get the feeling that I've worn out my welcome here. Then again, maybe it's just me. A rainy, windy day can make a person feel a little more crappier than they should...especially when they're bored outta their...

There's some folks out there who say it's the bee's knees and is better to work cattle in than a crowd tub. See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aniUeugrm8Y and Here too. I don't know the difference as I've never really worked with either, but admittedly I have worked in a similar...

1. What state/province/country are you in and what is your climate like? I live in the "Texas state" of Canada, which is Alberta, also known as the Sunshine Province, or Wild Rose Country as is put on the license plates. The province well-known for being home to cowboys, cowgirls and oil. I...

Alrighty folks, I have a couple of pictures of steers who are of unknown breeding (well, at least one is). Lets see who can get it right, or who's closer. :) #1: #2: Here he is again: And again: #3: He's a little darker in this picture (same steer on the far-left): Him again in the...

I was reading somewhere that a particular rancher who has done mob grazing for quite some time believes that harrowing your pastures is actually detrimental, not helpful. He claims that doing this increases losses "due to volatization and run-off...A well-placed dung pat that is undisturbed is...

And a Happy New Years! Hope Santa is good to all of you. ;)
