Chore Time!!

[ChickQueen77]

At the end of each 4-H year I have to fill out a paper that says my time for chores/spending time with my animals and what I did each month

The new 4-H year started on October 1st and I have been keeping track of my time for chores since then instead of guessing hours like I have been doing for all the years I have been in 4-H. Last year I started keeping track of time but by the first 3 weeks I quit.

I have a notebook that I write down my chore times and I started a spreadsheet for time
here is a link to that spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1t_airu6vnEYRoXuuAp8dWTePiWk61l2TPiiY30D45ZQ/edit?usp=sharing

we had 5 bottle calves this year that we are going to sell soon.
on my chore chart it says try to get calf unstuck that was the bottle calf it got its head stuck between 2 wooden fence poles and I had to try to get its head unstuck.

my sister had a steer that she isn't going to show so he is in with the bottle calves to be sold. the steers name is Kirby
