The fall calving Waygu cows that have been here since spring left today. Well most of them. We hauled 42 head of cows in 5 loads. They went to greener pastures. Literally, from dry rangeland to flat irrigated pasture over by Baker. Three guys horseback with 5 dogs brought them down. There were a few other odds and ends that came in with them. One pair and a cow that is about to calf got hauled off seperate. Two pairs that belong to the neighbor got kicked back out. The count shows that they were still 8 head short so in a few days the hills will get searched again. In the mean time I will scout the water holes during the heat of the day to see if I can locate some of them.
I hauled one load. I told them I sure could tell I wasn't hauling calves. These old cows really packed on the pounds eating dry grass and walking a mile or more on steep ground to water.
