Or you can simplify things, like I do, if ya like her, keep her, if'in ya don't, then sell the ol' screw, kinda makes things more simple huh? :idea:
I have a cow I raised from a bottle some time ago, I think way back when Adolf Hitler was still in leiderhosen, anyways, the old biddy gives me very good calves every year, but also gets milk fever at least once to boot, has a bag as big as a volkswagon,with teats that almost scrape the ground, and has has grown spoiled as all get out, and to make things even worse, is a hog at the feed trough, and has gotten a right bitchy atitude this past year, (might have something to do with having at least 4 calves attached to her almost 24/7 for several months.) She no doubt is a lot of work for a couple of months just after her calf is born.
BUT, I like her, she pays for herself and then some,and I will likely keep her until she gets much worse, OR I can about count the days she has left. She should have been culled this year, or last, or even the one before that, but it just aint hapnening , ya see, cus....I like her. Kinda like a wife, she grows on ya. :cboy:
