[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1829516, member: 39373"] Pretty sure I was dropped on my head as a child [USER=14161]@gcreekrch[/USER] 🙃 I married into the property. We were letting a fella cut hay off the place. Then one year, instead of cash we asked for a heifer for payment. When he brought us the heifer (I didn't even have a trailer, and all I had was a hotwire and 2 donkeys) his wife say.... Are you ready for a Rocket?? I didn't have a clue! Calf sure enough shot outta the trailer like a Rocket. Ran all over like an idiot and finally went a laid in the shade. I thought great! She will be fine. All good. Until she went looking for her mama that was NOT here. I chased that lil sh!t 5 miles in my ol vw bug before she tired out enough we could get a rope on her. Across the corn fields. Thru the wheat pasture. THRU idk how many fences along the way. Thru the pond down the road after she got out the second time. Now known as the "rocket pond" Finally got her caught again and weaned her at my lovely neighbors place. Shes coming with her 9th calf this spring.... And yes. Her names Rocket [/QUOTE]
