    Remember This Bull?

    Have had guys tell us that we are crazy to not keep the flighty ones because they will keep a predator away. Well guess they never realized they were also on this cows predator list. Have seen cows that are just sniffing us as we tag their calves, chase coyotes completely out of the pasture. I...

    Remember This Bull?

    Just got home from some EMS training. Yes George that was the bulls sire. This bull always acted different then our other bulls. He would literally be running the fat off himself going from one end of the herd of cows to the other. He also wanted to fight both of our other bulls. Our other 2...

    Rained/Snowed Out Shipping

    Hope we get a good price for the calves at tomorrows sale. Had a buyer call us this summer but he was not too interested when he found out they were Herefords. Our repeat customers who buy beef from us sure love them! Some pictures did not upload but some did. Ran out of bunk space. I sure hate...

    Rained/Snowed Out Shipping

    Was crazy on Thursday rushing to get the pairs in and calves cut off. Vet came out and preg tested the cows and ran the calves through for shots. All set to go today but 1.90" of rain and snow over the weekend took care of that plan! Looks like they will be leaving next Monday for the sale ring...

    Remember This Bull?

    Went through my files and all the calves born from him are gone except those 2. That cow from him scared our daughter so bad she refused to go to the barn to take care of her 4-H Jersey cow. Tried to take hubby on his 4-wheeler too.

    Remember This Bull?

    This was our Churchill bull that decided he didn't like me and came after me. Well 2 of his daughters are hitting the road this fall. Same temperment. One has a horn on her head that the paste missed and something about her just puts us on edge. The second one tried to take our daughter through...

    Branding Done

    Like OT said 12 years is pretty old for a cow up here. Lots of cattle were heading for the sale ring yesterday. These older cows were looking pretty "shelly" as hubby put it. One had a calf that is a major dink. Was talking to him about just keeping that calf and putting it on my milk cow when...

    Holy Grafting!

    Checked them last night and all was going well. Told hubby we should leave them in the pen for at least a week so they bond really well and that way there is no confusion when they go out to pasture.

    Holy Grafting!

    Had a cow lose her calf around 5 days ago. Had another cow have twins. The day after the twins were born hubby ran the cow with no calf into the barn. I tried to get the cow to take a twin. She was not settling down so figured it was not going to work. So just left them all together in the barn...
