hello everyone! the MAR/APR/MAY transport trip has been completed - I am preparing the equipment for the next trip which will be mid JUN/JUL/early AUG - I already have a number of reservations so I expect space to be limited during this next trip - one of the transport services has gone out of business so I expect many of their regular customers to contact me - that means that I am likely to be near full capacity at all times - last minute reservations face a strong possibility of my not having room to add your animals so please contact me as soon as you can if you contemplate needing transport - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I highly recommend that you join my TravelWithRonK Yahoo group below - that is where I post updates in a timely manner - if you want the latest info on what I am doing then get it from the Travel group! as always I need name, address, phones, email, local directions, and a description of the animals for the pick up and name, address, phones, email, and local directions for the drop off to be able to do planning during the last trip I was stopped for a random ag inspection by the Cokeville WY *CITY POLICE* - the USDA is putting lots of pressure on the states to fill in the gaps on NAIS so it is IMPERATIVE that all animals be legal for transport - go to the web site below for info and then have your vet contact the destination state early so that the animals can be legal - I WILL NOT transport animals that are not totally legal - I have been stopped SIX times in the past year for random inspections so this is not a trivial request! -- questions? Ron and Corgi co-pilot Jeremy private email at [EMAIL PROTECTED] - PLEASE NOTE! THREE IMPORTANT MESSAGES BELOW!! 1 - ALL livestock crossing a state line REQUIRES a minimum vet inspection certificate - it may be as simple as a certificate and rabies tag for dogs or as complex as several blood tests for other species - I WILL NOT TRANSPORT animals that do not meet the minimum requirements - go to the IMPORT web site below to find out what is required for the destination state of your animals - then have your vet double check with the destination state state vet office far enough in advance to have time to complete blood test requirements - ANIMAL IMPORT info at http://www.aphis.usda.gov/vs/sregs 2 - when I am on the road I DO NOT access my home email - email sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or @MidAmericaBreedingTech.com addresses will NOT be viewed until I return home - if I do not answer your email within 24 hours assume I am on the road - in that case contact me through the Travel group below - the same applies to my telephone voice recorder at 512.259.5098 3 - if you anticipate using my transport service you need to join the TravelWithRonK group below immediately! by joining Yahoo at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TravelWithRonK or by email only (not required to join Yahoo) Post message: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Travel with Confidence with TravelWithRonK! see pictures of my rig at http://TravelWithRonK.com and http://www.raresoaysheep.com/TravelByTruck.html ron keener near Austin, Texas http://TravelWithRonK.com http://MidAmericaBreedingTech.com thanks - please see below for some useful web sites --- TRAVEL MAPS at http://www.MapQuest.com DISTANCE CALCULATIONS at http://www.indo.com/distance/ ANIMAL IMPORT info at http://www.aphis.usda.gov/vs/sregs TRAVEL WITH ME at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TravelWithRonK NATIONAL GASOLINE AVERAGE PRICE INFO at http://www.eia.doe.gov/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/wrgp/mogas_home_page.html public ID endorsements at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IDherdtesting alternate and international ID order site at http://www.khimairafarm.com ************************************************************** * MidAmerica Breeding Technology * Using Technology to Enhance Your Breeding Program * * ID natural colostrum based immune system stimulant * for animals available as liquid or powder * info at http://www.colostrum.com * * Percoba natural colostrum supplements for human use * available as liquid or lactose free lozenge * info at http://www.thecolostrumstore.com * * Little Big Man Exotics * miniature Tennessee Myotonic (fainting) goats * and Great Pyrenees guardian dogs * * home of Ziegy - AnheuserBusch ZiegenBock beer mascot goat * * Amateur radio station WA0REE * * proud owner of classic 1978 Birchaven and * 1977 Royale GMC motorhomes ************************************************************** _______________________________________________ This message is from the blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's homepage at %http://www.blackbellysheep.info
