@gonads16 @4FAngusBoy We are sure good at beating up on each other in the cattle business. Imagine if there was more than one way to be right.

@4FAngusBoy Wait I thought you were suppose to leave it let die and get the feed value as low as you can then graze it in the spring and question in the fall why you got 20% of your cows open?!! #stirthepot

Made the feed across the road, stacked it in the corner, now rolling it out on grass 50 yards away Some efficient nutrient transfer

@garrett_wolf3 Freestanding is nice. We built a permanent working corral last year. Well worth it.

Equipment to acre ratio intrigues me. I think equipment expense can be a higher cost than it needs to be if not careful. I know geographic areas need different amounts of equipment, it’s when farmer A has 4-6X higher ratio than neighboring farmer B that make me go “huh”. 🤔

@Jason_hildo @BaldurBarons @RoncerayDan @RonKrahn @millatime99 Scales, auto calibration, more cart side features, opener lifting, in cab depth adjustment, in cab downforce adjustment, relative flow blockage systems, turn compensation to name a few from across different brands. Up to you if you see value in that technology.

When you get the news you get to demo something you’ve been wanting to demo for ages! I hope that excitement never goes away!

Tales from the Feedyard (Uncensored)
@bl_ag_inc Generations. Not the kind where great grandpa bought it and everyone after milks the cow for free. The kind where every generation adds to it.

@jwilgenburg1 Agreed. Helps to work in pairs. You can get mirror extensions. Last winter we hauled a lot of 4 lane. If we had to do more I would put a camera on the back.

I've hauled a bit of oversize but so far nothing is worse than round bales. Can't see anything behind you...

So we are at the phase in the cattle cycle where experts say we will expand the cow herd What if we don’t?

@NerbasBrosAngus Besides an increase in imports, what would happen if the cow herd just didn’t expand when it’s supposed to?

Recently built this alley to accommodate new chute. May not look like much to the big timers but it sure beats doctoring beef cows with a gate and a scoop shovel handle like years prior
