Yesterday was the day to get up the yearling replacement heifers for their pre breeding work.
23 head to run through the chute, vaccinate and deworm. (plus a couple of extra cows with calves that were with the group)
But we had some good help. E is still home on Covid19 leave from her job so we are trying to take advantage of the extra help.
She is a pro at the headgate.
J's job was pushing them up the chute.
I kept the shots drawn up.
Everything went smooth as silk. But it is amazing how much dust there is considering all the rain we have been getting. E improvised a dust mask when we turned the heifers back out.
Another group down, several more to go.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the beef market this year.
You make it all seem so smooth. (I hope all goes well with the beef market)
