There has been a lot of cattle moving around this week.
First, we moved 2 loads of bred heifers to J's dad's house. This involved getting them up, deworming, loading on the trailer,then unloading.
Now they should be set until winter.
Then there was another cow that had twins. J tried to get them together to go to the barnlot, but this little one took off in the opposite direction. J finally got fed up with trying to herd him and just picked him up.
I got the halter out of the truck and we about had him halter broke by the time we got to the lot. Farmercising, picking up and pulling.
The J gave me the job of rotating the cattle here today. They don't really come when I call but they know the sound of the 4-wheeler and they were ready for new pasture.
A pretty easy move, just open the gate and get out of the way.
some great pictures - I liked the cow jumping out of the trailer, the trio of cows facing you and the sun reflecting off the water shot.
ReplyDeleteMore serious farmercizing or J
but wait a minute - you were moving the cows on the 4 wheeler? Not a horse?
opps - should have been farmercizing for J
