More Cattle Work

It was the fall calves turn today.

Just running through the chute to deworm everyone and vaccinate a few.

Mike came over to help.  I always love help because that makes less for me to do.

Joe pushed them all through the chute.

There were two to dehorn.  We used a horned Hereford bull last year.   We haven’t had any with horns for a few years.  It is not something I look forward to.  But I do everything I can to make it less painful.  I do a lidocaine nerve block and a pain medication injection.  At least it was just two.

 We were done in quick order and everyone got turned back out to graze.
