Did she try on the men jeans they had in the store you went to? And what @farmerjan says. Goodwill, next to new, whatever fits. New jeans are way too pricey to get down and dirty in.

That's all great what you are saying and yes courtesy on anything first and foremost is my personal motto......... But if I may ask a question, or make a statement, there is no way you can control a bull to stay put if he wants to go from a pasture. At least with regular fence and not 6 foot...

Did you end up marrying her? =D Oh come on, just yanking your chain. You are right though, play with big animals and you'll pay the price, even if they didn't mean to harm you.

Question: You didn't say how many cows and if you take 2-3 bales a day. We feed 2-3 bales a day. Depended for years on a hill to unroll the bales, which was fine, but it does build up over the years if you always feed in the same spot. Or, if you have a fence on the bottom of a hill where you...

He might have been demoted to being the 2nd and the other bull took over the position of herd boss. I've found many older bulls who get kicked off the main position withdraw and go off by themselves. That could be one, but if he is sick or injured he would do the same. If it were my place I...

That's many more chances then I would give. For us it's 'if you cross the river/creek you are owner of a one way ticket come fall'. But who are we kidding, if not ourselves. If a bull wants to go he is gonna go, not much fence is going to hold him from doing so.

I agree with the others, introduce them out in a field with lots of space and no cows in sight. There is not much you can do if they pick a fight, they better have that 'argument' before you put them with the cows.

I don't know about @Silver but for us it got too hot too fast after the snow melted, with too hot I mean stretches of high 20 Celsius to 30 Celsius. Not enough rain in the fall, no rain worth mentioning after the melt and now very warm unusual temperatures combined with strong wind. We are in...

What do you mean they quit issuing fire permits? We are in the forest protection zone, november to end of feb you can burn without permit, like brushpiles and stuff. May to October you have to get permits. Right now all burning is prohibited because of the situations, but during regular...

....or be accused of trying to steal the calf. Ugh It's always a dicey situation when cattle end up where they are not suppose to be.

How do you keep the heifers from bouncing up and down and back and forth while you are putting the brand on?

Nope, Nada, don't want them!!!!! We've got enough predators already. Note to write to the government........ close airspace over Canada for black vultures!!!!!! That'll teach 'em.

It's funny you say that about coyotes attacking pets and threaten kids and all that. When stuff like that happens in the suburb it makes the big news, oh my god a coyote attacked and injured and killed a pet. Have you ever seen a story about a coyote injuring or killing a lamb or calf or what...

Here I am reading the post and thought, "I should ask somebody to post a picture of them because I'm not sure what exactly they mean with black buzzard" And boom, my question was answered before I could even post it. =D

Ok, thanks.

Link to the video?

Try not to keep any from first calf heifers. We wean replacement calves quite some time after we ship the regular crowd. Don't want the strain on first calf heifers to feed a calf going into winter, if that makes sense?! But exceptions happen, for all kind of reasons. Planned and un-planned. =D

Good looking babies!!

I wouldn't worry too much about it. You said she is just a month old, so all of the handling is really not that long ago. You are not feeding her anymore, right? I would just kick or push, like a cow would if a calf gets too rambunctious. Like MurraysMutts said, kick on the nose, or a whack on...

They don't have a crying emoji on here, because that would be my reply. Our winters are just a tad bit too long.
