Calving

    Been really busy here. We are in full swing of calving. We split the heifers into 2 pastures. I got one pasture to check and take care of, my boss took the other pasture. I ride either Roller or G in the morning through the heifers checking calves. I'll pair out calves into another pasture. I pulled a calf Monday I think it was the 3rd calf I've pulled. My boss was there to give some advice but I did the work. Today I pullled a calf by myself. Boy those heifers were on the fight! Glad we have solid fence's and pen's.
  We got calves running and jumping all over the place. They sure make you feel good watching them run and play. Until next time take care

Hope calving goes well for your outfit. Did you get your gear fixed? Hope that was a one time deal with G.

We'll have our first heifer to calve out next year...I'm nervous about that, but we got good neighbors that will come help.

I enjoy calving best when they do it themselves. We need to pair out a bunch...sure wish you lived closer;)
