It sure is making more work around here. The wet weather and the quick switch to real cold is hard on cattle. They really are not conditioned for this type of weather this winter. We are checking them every hour or so. They all have some type of wind shelter they can get behind to block the worst of the winds. We blocked one end on a yard yesterday with corn stalk bales just to makes sure that those cattle would be out of the direct wind. We have a pen of southern feeders that have only been here two weeks so We really are watching them. we also are going through bedding at a higher rate than the weather would normally dictate. We wanted everything to have a good bedding pack for this cold spell.
I would not want to milk like Bruce does but on days like this I really like his tie stall barn. A lot of work inside where it is warm. The flip side is a lot of work in the summer when it is hot too. LOL So I guess I will stay with what I got.
So be safe and extra careful in this cold weather. It would take just minutes to be in trouble if you fell and had to lay there.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
