New Heifer on the place! Born around 2:00 a.m. I missed it by 15 minutes, a little late getting my old azz out of bed to do my checks. Mama had no troubles and baby is up and sucking. The vigor on these Sonne bull calves is amazing. Cole Sonne

We’ve always owned cheapo metal twist bits. I do have a few good step bits which are awesome, but not always the best for every application. Could anyone share a good quality brand of twist drill bits that don’t get dull drilling in harder materials?

Our Biggest Day Yet: Packing 400+ Orders

Seems like the cows tried to fight off whatever ate this calf. We fed here yesterday and things were fine. Seems like the predator ate through some of the ribcage. I hope it’s just a big coyote and not something else

Last day of planting and rolling

Where do I send the bill to when I spread thousands of dollars of urea ahead of a 70% chance of 8/10 or more of rain, only for it to completely disappear from the forecast 24 hours before it was supposed to come

Getting a little ready for harvest looking at where and when to grease a new to us S680. Most zerks call for grease after 50, 200, and 400 hours. We usually grease everything every other day which is way less than 50 hours. How often do you grease your combine in season?

Annual reminder to never ever walk under swing auger when it’s in the air. First touch of hydraulics this year and it came crashing down from full height when cable broke. Had a neighbour killed years ago from this, so is always on my mind. AGI

High moisture corn. Great cattle feed, allows us to harvest some acres early. About 32% moisture today

Is 17.2% moisture corn going to be okay to put in a bin? Is 70 degrees. Have a good fan on the bin.

I was anxious going to bed last night to see what cattle markets were doing today. Glad to see some green in the fats!

I had Arby’s new steak bites and man were they horrible. If the beef check off wanted to do some good for the American rancher, they would make Arby’s discontinue. Hopefully it is not anyone’s first impression of steak, because they will not be buying again.

I just farm for fun anyways

A history of E15. Seeing a lot on here about E15 and wanted to clear a few things up where I could. Lets look at where we are and how we got here. (a thread) 1/19

If you aren’t using AI to farm or watering your cows 40 gallon at a time with a tote, you may as well go get a town job right now

I was fully expecting feeders to be limit down today after trumps post on Friday. It’s only noon yet, so we have plenty of time for surprises
