Got up at 3:30 and it was white outside with a fair breeze blowing, so I got dressed and went out and checked cows. Every thing seemed fine, but quite a little snow was coming in horizontal.

Got a calf on Saturday, two yesterday and looks like a new one out there today. all out of the older black cows Chance bought. When I’ve went to notch the calves ears, the mama’s have all been very good mama’s! Seems they don’t approve. Got all huffy and every thing! Oh well, I haveContinue reading “It’s started……”
