Oie, what a day

Story down here is that those long Canadian winters and all that winter feeding is the reason the Canucks cut corners on expense and fed so much MBM product/processed feed back to their cattle and created the Mad Cow epidemic that has now engulfed the country...

So if what your saying is true about your bad winter circumstances than the story might just be right...

Willowcreek,


What a crock of b/s that story of yours is. You guys in the US have fed jsut as much of that waste as we have up here. And the thing is all of that stuff is NOT going to be allowed in anything after July 12,2007. Is this happening in the US?

You keep working on your stories Oldtimer cause that's all you got. When we start shipping Celtic Beef into your high end stores, the hillbillies that believe your Rcalf jargon will already be wondering where the hell Rcalf went. How's the final countdown to destruction going Old Boy? By the way, our main focus is going to be the E.U. but my personal mission is to have a shop in Billings selling my beef. Used to go down to Billings on a regular basis and found it to be a wonderful town. Folks that I met just loved to take our canucklebucks. I look forward to taking some of them back.

"After a couple of tries - I just left her alone and let nature take care of the situation. Came back in an hour or so and everyone had everything sorted out."

I probably should have left the first pair alone to fight it out, but I was concerned about the amount of leg showing on the second cow. Besides, the kids were due home soon, and all that was left in the fridge for our dinner was their left over pizza from the night before. The neighbor and I were starving, and we wanted to beat the kids to the fridge

And besides, you have better luck than me. The first time I left two mommas to work things out, the first calf ended up with a pair of mothers, and the second calf was left abandoned in the trees (hmmmmm, come to think of it, it was in May :P)

DiamondSCattleCo: I would do the same as you and got that second calf out of the cow. Sometimes the placenta can get detached if the calf is left too long, as well as swollen faces and weaker calves. We are set up to assist the cows so it is no big deal. 95% of our cows gentle natured and are really easy to handle.

Now once spring field work starts it is a different story. The cows get to do it themselves quite a lot more.

Hey Kaiser-- How long since you been to Billings..Cops shot (and killed) another guy yesterday...

Town has turned into the meth capital of the western US-- some of the old guys I worked with say there are shootings nightly-- some nights you hear gunshots all over town...

I used to enjoy going to Billings- but not anymore- getting too big and getting all the city problems...

Anyway kaiser-- if you go there keep your butt down- a head wound won't bother you...

You know my thoughts on that old skank...
