That's a good solid pole barn really!
It's just a pickup bed trailer. I HAD square bales in it. Those ran out real fast this year!

Good question.
I see em occasionally on Craigslist.
That one has been here since time began.
still works. The hand dug well is underneath it. We don't use it because it supply the old farm house with water. Has an electric pump now

Crazy thing is, I really haven't done anything special with her. She gets cubes and hay with everyone else.
She got a pour on of ivermectin when I got her.
That's about it!

Somehow or nuther he managed to breed an 8 month old heifer last year or year before I can't remember. Well I say that. I'm pretty sure it was Richard that did that come to think of it
I still ain't decided...

Do you get Belties for any particular reason other than they usually sell cheap?

No reason at all!
She sold for nothing and I'm taking a chance on her. I've considered selling her now that she is in good shape. But ya know......
She was letting an orphan nurse.
That's the reason she is still here. If THAT lil cow will raise 2 babies, she will be here for quite some time. She still had milk when I got her. She had just weaned a calf. And her bag did not look bad at all, especially for a tiny cow in the last part of her lactation.

I'd have 20 here if I could buy them for a PENNY a lb like he did..... or $.10 or whatever it was... like 50-60 bucks...

It was $56 or something like that.
And I'm with you, @farmerjan, as my grandfather used to say "hell I'd take a train carload of them just to sell"

Had our Belted Galloway cow preg checked a couple days ago. She is 3 months bred.
We got a 3 in 1 deal there, bred cow and a weaning age heifer calf. Didn't buy her as cheap as Murray did though.
