Calving season is coming to a close, now it's time to brand and get the cows out on grass.
All the calves are sorted, the momma's are lined up looking for their babies.
Can you see the red cow calling for her baby? "Now Jr, come on let's get out of here. I don't like crowds! Jr! Jr! Come on!" That is the translation of "Moooo, Moooooo, Moooooo!"
Jr is in there chillin', for the moment.
Oh man, am I ever glad these guys showed up. I was having to wrestle a few calves and I have to admit that I was feeling my age.
Just a shot of what was going on. Everyone has a job and everyone is needed. I'm grateful for family, friends and neighbors. And I'm so glad that we had a pleasant evening, not too hot, not too cold, just right!!
Thus ends another branding session.We branded 30 calves for me, and another 55 for Dad and Rod. Yup you got it 85 calves branded tonight in about 2 hours. The rest of the herd (200+) will be branded later this week.
