[QUOTE="CowboyBlue, post: 849715, member: 16878"] Thank you! Actually, I am a native Texan. I studied English Literature in college and I teach English at the local high school. I have always freely admitted that I studied English as a second language ... I speak Texan first! :lol2: Well, the little cow is putting on some weight and her coat is shiny again, thanks to the minerals. She doesn't seem to be limping quite as badly, but she is still dragging her feet. I don't want to take her off, but some culling of the herd is going to occur, whether I like it or not. I would like to keep her, for all the reasons already listed, and because in caring for the animal I suppose I have grown attached to it. And, I have an affection for Herefords. Those are the cattle I grew up with on Daddy's place, and though the Angus-Brangus-black baldies have taken over in the pastures around here, I still NEED to see some red cows with white faces. But like I said, I may not have a choice. :( [/QUOTE]
