Here you go Ralph he is far from good quality. He needs a spike at the end of that comb which doesn't have but he would be a good starter!!

It is normal to be over worried I was too!! He will start drinking water once he realizes milk is a thing of the past.

OK. Thanks Holm!! Now to be brave enough to do it.

Oh and more exciting news on the Herefords!! One of the girls' front part of her udder is getting bigger!! The back half is still high but I am happy to see the front filling out some!! We are getting closer!! Can't wait!!

Whew finally caught up! you guys have been chattering away!

We have had a busy day today and ive only had a moment to pop in here and there. We deep cleaned the house which is nice. We decide that we are tired of it being so messy all the time so we have resolved to keep our house clean enough that we would be willing to have a guest come to our house on short notice and not be embarrassed at all times. We invited an old friend over to test our job and we are happy with the results thus far. He is an older farmer from church who was a big mentor to both my wife and I in our youth years. I really enjoy chatting with old farmers as they love telling me about the past and how things used to be. He loves keeping up with us and what we are doing on the farm and is happy to see younger people interested in getting back to simple life and such. He has all kinds of contacts in the local community, farming and otherwise and has been a great help in getting us info about all kinds of stuff.

I've got wheat bread kneading in the mixer and need to go pull it out. when I get it set to rise i will come back and share some other fun stuff with you guys
