Attaching a bucket/loader to my Kubota tractor

I am trying to find out what the easiest and best way is to attach and detach a bucket to my Kubota tractor.
The thing is so heavy, and there must be a way to just detach it in such a way, you actually do not have to lift it off, and when you want it back on, you should be able to drive up to it and just connect it.
I had so much trouble getting it off the first time ... :)

Do you tick treat pigs?

I just lost a piglet to a paralysis tick.  I never knew they were susceptible to them!  So what do people generally do for ticks on pigs?  Or is it just leave it to fate?

Buying a small farm to run cattle

G'day, I am looking into buying a small farm in the Omeo Valley region to run cattle. What size land would be required to run a farm that can provide a stable income? I was thinking of running smaller cattle as I hear they are easier to work with. I am looking anywhere between 200-500+ acres. My aim is to live comfortably, not to make copious amounts of money. Any ideas?

Thanks, Mary.
