Sooo kruser wants to know what we have been up to, well here we go!
With everybody in pasture we spend quite a bit of time checking on everybody. Seems like these girls found a nice spot on a hot day.
We have taken four steers to the Farmington Locker plant. They were good size as one calf had a hanging weight over 1000 lbs.
We lost this little guys mom on tuesday morning. She was maybe our oldest cow and she had been going downhill since a year ago but after he was born no matter what we tried she lost ground. She went down and we were unable to get her up and going again. Now we are trying to get a two month old calf started on a bottle. He has several names at this point depending on his level of cooperation!
Nick has been busy mowing and spraying pasture recently while Travis and myself were busy doing the much needed job of hauling manure. I think we must have ran 4 tanks of fuel in the 4230 just hauling manure. When we got that done we moved home our first cutting of hay from the fields to the Higgs farm.
This morning one of the crew froms Thompson grain bins showed up and started forming up the new grain bin.
They will be back in the morning and get ready to pour the floor then they are heading down the road a couple of miles to do a bin for a neighbor. Everyday here is the same but everyday is different. We are keeping busy and enjoying every minute! Hope everyone else is enjoying the summer as well. bill
