And what you have all been waiting for the Curly Sue show, she got breaky while there

we didn't have the bottle the first trip down BUT Curly was sure that Rod really did have the bottle and was searching him for it. LOL

Curly was this years last calf beginning of Aug.

Twist, these are the best pictures you have taken of the herd. Very nice and healthy looking. I knew it wouldnt take you long to make the new girls look better and you have. 19 looks 9 again compared to what she looked like before

Well THAT is reasonable isn't it?? You are the older and therefore more responsible one. DD2 didn't talk for a long time. Didn't have to, DD1 told us what DD2 wanted. She's still telling us what DD2 is thinking, even when she is wrong, wrong, wrong, at 25 and 23 years old. Can't let go of the ruler role she carved for herself.

I'm the middle kid. Took Mom some long time to figure out my younger sister was goading me until I hit her. I got in trouble for that a lot.


I don't know yaks, but are his nails in need of a trim?


Are they pushy to get their spot in the "pecking order" or actually aggressive?


Attach a torsion bar to it and crank it upwards

they mainly just get to the pushy thing , showing of horns and attitude usually determins head COW. BUT can be aggressive if they are "in a mood" or there are calves around and even more so if the calf is theirs.

Porter tossed Tibbit's when he was about a day old. AND the 5 cows I had at the time all ganged up and Porter and put him in "time out for a couple days" Tibbit's was the first calf born on the farm

Bull's fully grown 1500 to 1900 pounds.

That's a whole lot of animal behind some long pointy horns. I hope they don't aim them at you!

Nugget, Tibbit's and the Choice (mother of Nugget) and my 2 golden trims

nugget and tibbit's are the same years calves difference is mainly the sex.

And yes a few of them could use a pedicure. There is a man around here somewhere who has a squeeze chute that then flips on it's side so he can trim hooves. FIRST thing I plan on doing as soon as I actually sell an animal
