I won't tell if you don't and don't get spoiled with all that high livin. other thing you have to stay on top of bottle calves year round and look as far away as you can travel to get them. diary farmers will bred and want cows freshening year round . it's not a bred them all at one time thing . I heard their knocking them in the head up north again . also heard you can get truck loads up their cheap or even free

But if you want to bottle feed calves you should be able to find them year round .

I dunno where "up north" is for you but around here they are listed for $150-175 for dairy calves. Sure there are probably some that would get knocked in the head but there are brokers who hit the farms and take them to auction or Facebook or Craigslist for a nice profit.

Heck if I know, lol... I believe it can be carried in blues... but there's 2 types of chocolate... true chocolate is sex linked... there is dun as well, which is just the color and no sex linkage...

Hmmm...interesting. I've seen one Choc Orp in person and was beautiful.

What did you use for support? The toothpicks will not go in

I used toothpicks, you might try soaking it over night to soften it.

Don't plant them! They wont yield any good Avocado! When you use a plant that is germinated from an Avocado seed you will loose the parents features! The fertilization mix up the genetic features ! Buy a pure bread plant! They produced by vegetative reproduction that don't use gene mixing

Thats exactly why I find growing trees from seed soo attractive, you never know what you'll get. I have a peach I started like 14 years ago, produces delicious fruit.

We used to do that all the time when the girls were young. It is a lot of fun to see a tree sprout out of a big seed.

Amaryllis around Christmas time is fun, too - seeing a big red flower come up out of a bulb.

Around here people plant amaryllises here, they're just starting to bloom.

Anywhere north of Me is north but Ohio is what I heard . We had four farms we got ours from . around here . the profit margin is small milk replacer has gotten more expensive over the years and volume is the only way to make a good profit . We watched them go for as little as hundred dollars a head four weeks ago at the sale barn. I was told then they came from Ohio. I don't think they will drop lower than that. But cattle prices have dropped across the board and are getting to be more in line with they should be. this is a good time to sell but spring prices are always higher. Feed lots don't care about pasture so feeder cattle will stay close to the same price year round . They will however be higher in the spring. There are so many things that can affect the cattle market including imports that you never really know what's coming next . I don't think anyone expected the price to hit the high that the industry just went through . Now we watch and see where it goes from here. I would be knowing what # 1 feeder calves are selling for before I paid $175 for a dairy calf that will sell as a cutter. You remember how land prices got high some years back and people lost money during the crash unable to sell the land for what they paid for it and a lot of people lost everything .I see this happing with cattle in the near future . Not to that extent but money will be lost . And here I am rambling again .
