Looks like those white bulls are going to make you some money.

The hay is all off the fields. The cows are barely starting to trickle out of the hills. I guess there is still water and grass in the hills. I had one bull show up over a month ago. He was here for a couple weeks until the cowboys had time to haul him off. He was dropped off back in the hills about 15 miles as the crow flies from here. Lots of rough country between here and there. About a week later he was back again like a homing pigeon. Neighbor B says he has a home for bulls who wont stay out with the cows.

Perhaps theres something bringing him home ya just cant see...
For us, that is a fair indication that most of the work is done.
The vet had troubles making us fit in so the old fat guy tested 130 heifers today. Bulls were with them for 30 days and pulled 60 days ago. 21 open. Likely won't be bothering the vet for our heifers again. Cows are a different story. I can't stage them and we want no lates.

The last day of deer season is this coming Wednesday. Neighbor B said the cows will be coming out of the hills between then and the first of November (elk season). Got to have your priorities. That is 3,4, or 5 of them riding everyday. I think that neighbor L has them down. He spent the last two weeks riding dawn to dark moving them down. I know they sold their calves for a early November delivery with 45 day wean. So they have to have been weaned. The cows and calves are probably over at grandma's or dad's which is around the corner a couple of miles from me so I don't see them. Neighbor J gathered and weaned last week.
