This is exactly what I was trying to point out. Andy put it more succinctly
than I.  I appreciate your contributions Holly, to a point.  Andy is right,
a lot of misinformation floats around and I too usually ignore it.  But
we're dealing with live animals, people's money and thier livlihood.  Best
for the people who have been there, done that to give experienced advice to
newbies, and to realize farming is a humbling experience and there are
always ten right answers to a question and as always it varies as to your
conditions (or in this case, state).
Respectfully
