Look at these innocent cuties

Well, I've moved my arse into town.. Got myself a well winterized camper trailer, full hookups on a farm thats about 1 minute away from my work... Yup, I got a real job turning wrenches on logging equipment.. My friend who's a contractor "hired" me, though he has no official say in the hiring...

Welp, last of the cows will be gone tomorrow, going to be up before daybreak for a dang long trip... Definitely going to be an empty nest around here. Poppy, Robin and their calves went to my neighbor's place yesterday.. Poppy is going to be a sucker for attention from him It'll be quite a...

Who wanted @jltrent 's 7.3 Ford? Found one with not quite so low miles (180k ish) that looks like a twin from my memory

One of my best, old cows calved yesterday.. saw her thinking about it at noon, some contractions and the water broke at 3, didn't see feet so decided to grab the chains and go see what's up.. Big calf, a bit of manual pulling got her out in a timely fashion, Very cooperative cow, got right up...

There's been posting of a stray dog sighting around town the last few weeks, we're 16 miles out.. and I guess he thought our place was a good place to call home..

We had a break in the hot weather, was down into the 70's and rainy, so I called up a friend and we put "steerfry" and my freemartin heifer in the meat locker That was a BIG boy.. probably close to 13-14 ft fully stretched out... I'll get the hanging weight from the butcher here soon, I figure...

Got allergies?? Thankfully I don't get affected by it much This is what toxic masculinity looks like

Well, Zima was in heat today, 6 months old, so she's going to need to get a shot here, What timing and cocktail works reliably? 2cc estrumate and dex in 3 weeks if she doesn't come back into heat?

Once again, people can vote on an issue and it means nothing... The VP of the Farm Bureau that sounded supportive of RTR leaves to go where? The equipment dealer's association... the polar opposite

So this old girl followed me home.. Needs a little TLC, body is a bit dented up, worst part is on the ridge of the box that got good and smashed down about 1".. I was hesitant when I saw the ad for it with the flaky paint.. One of my friends sent me the ad (he's been looking for one of these...

I just learned that Wanda (Hillsdown) lost her battle with cancer yesterday. I know she'll be greatly missed, but her positive influence on Gelbvieh cattle, and on women and youth in agriculture will be lasting.

Friend of mine has a cow that's got a serious nose bleed, been going on about 12 hours, his vet has no clue what it is about an hour's worth, apparently only from one nostril
