Well had one short shift on Friday and didn't come in last night because I was hauling my cattle home all day yesterday - I start calving in a couple weeks.
Came in tonight and it's been busy last couple days. 16 calves 2 days straight. Brings us over 100. 2 lost - one premature doa off a heifer and one was deformed and euthanized. 3 sets of twins so +1 calf.
It's approaching -30 tonight then the weather is supposed to stay close to freezing which will be a relief. The barn is beyond full for the night. Have a couple calves stacked in one stall and cows kicked out for the night. Had 3 calves in 45mins a little earlier but it's been quiet for a bit now.
