If you are planning on bringing stock let us know so we can advertise it on the web page as coming and maybe we can get some extra buyers for your livestock ...but we post everything on the web page by noon Fri. so get that info to us by then.  Help yourself by letting us advertise what you are bringing. Pictures are posted on Facebook after livestock is received Fri night or Sat morning.

Also remember in wet weather the parasites are more problems.  Stay on top of it.  Do not feed on the ground and rotate pastures if you can. Goats can look  fine one day, be droopy the next, and dead the next if you don’t get them treated. Or they can gradually lose weight and have scours.  If they hang their head and tail check them out or if they are  coughing a lot.   Don’t let parasites rob you of profits. See issues pages

Ticks are already bad.  See issues pages if ticks are infesting your animals.

I had a lady drop off goats and some equipment Sat July 13th and said were we getting hay.  I said I don’t think so as the ones we get it from do not have any right now. So she said “well then I’m going on home,  mail me the check.  If you were getting hay I’d stay.” This was about 9 that morning.  About 2 I got a load of 88 bale of grass hay.  As I say if you are bringing something let us know.  This girl would have stayed and the seller would have had another bidder if I’d have known.

We are starting to get question about the sale this weekend.  Come out and join us.  It’s cool inside and comfortable seating and handicap accessible.

Our chicken, poultry, rabbit, misc, hay sale is outside- sorry- that is air conditioned by Mother Nature,  We start it at 3:30.   Hay is in short supply so grab it early if you can.  We have heard that places on the Ark river have lost 60% of their alfalfa crops.  It may be tough finding hay and it could be expensive since there is a shortage due to all the rains and flooding. WE got some last sale that we din’t know as coming.  Haven’t heard if any is coming this sale.  Watch facebook for latest checkin on sale day.

Have 3 ewes and 4 rams coming that have been raised for their wool.  Lady spins the yarn. If your are interested in doing this she might be a good person to talk to.   Sheared in Apr and could be sheared again.

We are getting lots of new people every sale and we do appreciate everyone.  We thank you for spreading the word about our sale.  Thank you for marketing you animals with us and for buying  some of your replacement animals at our sale.

We get extra  Goat and Sheep magazine and Ranch and Rural Living magazines and you are welcome to pick up either one or both. They have some really good articles.  We lay these out on the tables and you can take one if you like.

 B’s restaurant and Econo Lodge are closed due to a fire.   If you want fine dining we suggest heading to Davenport 6 miles E on Rt 66 and dine at Dan’s BBQ, Tammy’s Route 66 or Scotty B’s.  We highly recommend all 3 of those restaurant.  Also we have Lincoln Motel in Chandler for lodging.
