The calf in the bathtub story reminds me of something I did in 1998.
I came across a deal on day old Holsteins. $5 each. So I bought all 5. Got them home a put up in the barn. The next day they got scours. I was giving them medication for scours. That night a cold front came in and the temperature was to get down into the single digits. I worried about the calves being weak and freezing to death so I brought them in a put them in my bathroom and shut the door.
The next morning I got up to shower and go to work. I opened the bathroom door and there before me were 5 deadcalves laing on the floor in about 1 or 2 inches of diarrhea. I just shut the door and went to work.
My son was around 14 at the time. I had to be at work at 6 a.m. so I was always gone before he even got up to go to school. That evening, when I got back home from work, I asked him what he thought when he opened the bathroom door earlier that morning. He replied that he had taken a shower that morning. I asked him how he avoided stepping in the floor covered with diarrhea? His reply..."I just stepped on each calf to get to the shower!". Kinda like stepping stones. LOL

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
