Okay, the revised version looks like this:

BackYardCows - News, Information & Feedback

Calf 101
This forum is for discussing all calf concerns, beef and hand raised.

Feed, Forages and Pastures/Rangeland
This forum is for discussing feeding issues as well as growing forages and pasture/Rangeland.

Fencing, Housing, Manure Management

Emergencies/ Diseases/ Injuries and Cures

Predators and Pests

Milking

Wheres the Beef?
"This forum is dedicated to the discussion of all things beef cattle and may include graphic processing descriptions."

Cow Behaviors & Handling Techniques

Equipment & Supplies

Everything Else Cow

As you can see Cow Behaviors has been changed to Cow Behaviors & handling Techniques. Left it as Cow due to the name of the forum but, it will include all ages.

As to the Health & Nutrition suggestion, Nutrition is part of Feeding and that is the ctegory those concerns tend to show up in. Heath Issues are already covered in the Emergencies, etc.

Any questions or concerns?

Looks pretty good, Kitty! I still think that nutrition is part of health, and yet nutrition is part of feeding too.....funny how things are all integrated!

Anywho, I must say I do like the new categories. (You forgot to include "Emergencies/Health Issues" or a title to that effect!)

Where did that go? I'll go put it in. Somehow I lost it, thank you!

There it's fixed. It was there just not in bold and right under the Fencing, etc. so it looked more like an explaination. It's just one of those days!

I like the idea of Health & Nutrition...what about adding an Emergencies one, too? There's another board I frequent that has that for emergencies only, which makes it easy for folks to see if someone has a cattle 911. It's listed at the very top of the board list on that other board. I've used it a few times and have learned a lot from others' emergencies, too. (On that one, once the emergency has passed, the thread is moved into the appropriate other category, in our case, probably Health & Nutrition or whatever).

 

[Farmer Kitty]

We have an Emergencies!

I've already explained the Health & Nutrition one.

 

[GrassFarmerGalloway]

I like it.
