Merry Christmas

Have a Very Bunny Christmas

Hope you are on the nice list.  Santa's on his way.

C just gave Bunny a new suit for Christmas.

Decorations

A few more Christmas decorations that I have been enjoying this season. 

 The egg tree.  All the eggs are creations of sister C.

 E's second tier Barbie collection.

 These are the first tier.

I like to have ornaments other places than just the tree.

More Trees

A few more of my Christmas trees. 

 The pink tree,

 the blue tree,

 the angel tree,

and the fish tree.

Second Round of Weaning

Last month we weaned just the heavier end of the steers.  We were able to send those with some we bought to the feedlot in Nebraska on Saturday. 

 Yesterday, we got the cattle up again to wean the rest of the calves.  The theory was that the cows would follow the tractor with the hay.

 But there are always the stragglers and the one that just stands on top of the hill to watch.

 Then  there are the ones that missed the gate hole and have to be driven back to it.

We finally got everyone headed in the right direction.

 J had to check his list to make sure he had cut out all of the cows he was planning to cull.  The Herefords he had such high hopes of the girls showing never panned out all that well.  A couple of them never raised very good calves.  He is still keeping a few.

 E came out to help some.  She was suppose to be counting but was easily distracted.

 J dewormed the cows we are keeping along with the calves we weaned.

Then back out to the field to get the promised hay.

Mistletoe

We have this cool tree along our driveway. 

 I'm not sure what kind of tree it is.

 But since we have owned this farm it has always had mistletoe in it.

 J shot some down for me one year to use in my Christmas decorating.

Now I just leave in in the tree and enjoy seeing it there.

Goat Treat

I thew the last of the fall decorations over the fence today. 

 A couple of pumpkins can really excite a goat.

 Once it breaks open then they can get at the good part.

 Big bites now.

 Uh oh, must protect the treat.

"Back I say, stay back."
