So, does anybody have any idea about the democratic process involved in electing a new boss cow? Old boss was a senior citizen. She came off pasture a bit thin this fall. Made it through the preg check but the last cold snap we had was just a bit too tough on her. I think she had Wooden Tongue and within a matter of a few days she went from thin to skeletal and got that look in the eyes that says you should fetch your gun. So, I told her that she'd been a good cow and served me well and shot her in the head. I haven't had to move the herd yet and so I don't know if a new leader has been chosen or who it is. So, how does the new boss cow get elected? Any ideas?
