A shame you've had such tough luck when starting off Havinago. You can be sure when we all give our cattle away and throw in the towel it will pour with rain....Murphy's law!! There's some good storms down S of Longreach tonight. We're a No Go zone for any moisture it seems. If you approach our property from the N S E or W you will come through green almost right to our boundary.
Son has kindly "unlocked the gates" and is letting us put another 6 decks of cows and calves on our northern place. We've got them in the yard, ready to go at daylight before he changes his mind! Such a hot day here today, 40 degs and a big hit of humidity, just awful, a few calves had their tongues out. The cows we're trucking look good. Don't let anyone tell you charolais aren't tough - they're as tough as anything else.
You're a very handy fellow Ken, putting the kitchen in for Pam etc. I saw that soybean silage you got advertised in the QCL.
Hope you all you folk get some good rain soon - it will help us out too!
Ken, my lame pony mare improved but now is worse than ever. No heat or swelling, her hoof is fine to prod and poke and is neat and clean. I think its in her shoulder. Dug out her papers and she's 17, maybe its arthritis. I'd like to float her in to be assessed but hubby says no way, a big bill and we still won't have a clue what's wrong. She's eating well and hasnt lost condition.
