Wouldn't it be a rotten world if we did!!! We should enjoy each day as if it were our last. Keep smiling, be happy.

I sent my calves there too. My calves came home with more pounds than the ones I have at home, I was quite impressed. The only thing is my first year there, I lost a cow and a calf so that took away a bit of profit.

I'll bet that everyone of us has lost a cow or calf right at home at one time or another. Anyone that has livestock will eventually have dead stock.

I find it quite interesting the different cost of pasturing cows I did not have any water on the pasture last yr but if I did I was asking $1 per day for cowcalf pairs and the neibours all hollered that at that rate there was nothing left for them but I feel itis realy to cheep. But when you compare what grazing lease holders in Alta pays I guess it seem high . The rates are 2.79 in southern alta 1.39 in northern (thats per mo per cow calf) and along with that they are intitled to resource revenue At present in excess of 40 Million $ per yr devided between app 3600 lease holders. And our politicions want to go fight the yankeys over unfair trade practices I think they should level the playing field right here at home . Do any one know what the rates are in other provinces.
