    Well hubby found out the hard way that she's pretty darned protective. Roped the calf when Aubrey was loose and she went after him. Luckily she's older and not too fast. Well, not as fast as hubby was at that moment. I guess next time he'll listen to me when I tell him not to mess with the baby...

    You know I thought they guy that sold the dairy boys to us said Gurnsey, but I'm not 100% on that. I guess he's probably holstein, doesn't matter either way to us. Will it matter at the market? Other than to keep the guys at the salebarn from laughing at me for trying to pass him off as a...

    Ewock calf

    Actually for highlands, your calf would be considered dun. These are my two heifer calves right after they arrived at about two weeks old.

    Winning the lottery

    A woman gets home, screeches her car into the driveway, runs into the house, slams the door and shouts at the top of her lungs, "John, pack your bags. I won the lottery!" The husband says, "Oh my God! What should I pack, beach stuff or mountain stuff?" "Doesn't matter," she says. "Just get the...

    Thanks! Once the grass comes in we will be cutting off the grain completely. Well maybe just a handfull or two to get them to come up to the barn. The two dairy boys will still be getting grain, but we are trying to fatten them up to sell in May. Now if we could get a little more rain, I'd be set!

    Three blondes.....

    Well maybe I shouldn't have put "normal". Maybe I should have put "those that celebrate Easter." and I was really only reffering to the last part of the joke, which is obviously reffering to "Groundhog Day". So maybe I should say, I don't know anyone that celebrates Easter, that also celebrates...

    Thanks! We got a steal when we bought our property. We got 22 acres for 56k 2 years ago. I'd say now it's about $3,000 to $5,000 per acre. We lease the front pasture for $200 a year, it's around 6 acres. We have to clear about 10 more acres sometime. I'd like to have more pasture. But I don't...

    I just thought I'd post some newer pictures of our kind of new highlands and a couple of the "dairy boys" that we've had for a while. This is all the cows except the babies. (Yes we only have 6 bovine total) These are the two babies at 1.5 months This is Ribeye our gurnesy cross at 8 months...

    Belgian Blues

    I did a search on this breed and this is what I came up with. Kind of funny what they claim, when real worlders know different. The bull on their frontpage looks like he can barely move. http://www.belgianblue.co.uk/ British Breeders have selectively bred the ‘British Type’ of Belgian Blue...

    Highland question

    I got my highland about a month ago. They didn't have alot of contact with people, but they learned quickly we were where the food came from and settled right in. We kept them seperate in a smaller pasture and just kind of hung around with them. (Not in the pasture, just outside so they could...

    Baby's First Doctor Visit

    I guess the old saying "Dirty old men need love too" also applies to dirty old women. ;-) :D

    Three blondes.....

    I thought it was great! No NORMAL human being could think this is anything other than a joke. If this is someones understanding of Easter, then they're doing it wrong. :roll: (edited to say the last part isn't normal, the rest is perfect. :oops: )

    Challenge your Brain

    I thought it was easy too until I realized I was reading the words not saying the color. I read Green but the word was written in black. So I should have said black.

    What kind of feed do you use?

    I made one myself. It's a 5 gallon bucket with a lid that has a 4 in PVC pipe attached to the bottom, about 2 1/2 ft long with the end tapered slightly. I pour the minerals in the top and put a feed pan underneath. It's easy(and inexpensive!) to make and the cows don't have a problem with thier...

    Getting old??

    OLD" IS WHEN... Your sweetie says, "Let's go upstairs and make love," and you answer, "Pick one, I can't do both!" "OLD" IS WHEN.. Your friends compliment you on your new alligator shoes and you're barefoot. "OLD" IS WHEN..... A sexy babe catches your eye and your pacemaker opens the garage...
