I believe I mentioned on here that the neighbor had 10 heifers get out and they were wilder than stampeding buffalo. Well they got all of them except two and one of those showed up in the pasture with our heifers. She had that crazy eye look so we just left her alone for a week and she acted like she was starting to calm down. Anywho, today the neighbor decided it was time to get her back home. Jeff parked enough trucks and machinery between the pasture gate and the barn door to pretty much make an ally into the barn. The minute he walked out into the pasture that fool gets that crazy eyed look again and it required some VERY careful handling of the heifers to get her to simply walk into the barn with our heifers. It was very touch and go. After she was in the barn and sealed off from the outside. She was still very difficult to do anything with. She finally crowed in between the cows and she got a small dose of Rompom (sp?) to calm her down before she hurt someone or smashed something. That calmed her down enough to get a halter on her and get her safely into the cattle trailer without hurting herself or one of us. Obviously these heifers get very little personal attention. I have heard that vets absolutely hate working with cows in these big automated operations because it is like working with wild animals. There is a hoof trimmer working in this area that has Jeff help him with a local hoof trimming job because the cows are very difficult to handle in exchange for doing Jeff's herd. So I can believe the vets having problems with some herds.
And the neighbor still has one heifer running around that they haven't caught yet. Haven't seen it for a week or so, for that matter.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
