We raise commercial beef cattle. The holstein bottle calf was purchased @ the dairy the day he was born as a bottle mate for our orphan calf. I will help out trailering the bales to the barns for storage. I drive the trailer through the field and the cowboys loads it up with bales. I also open and close all of the gates in and out of the fields on our way back and forth to the barns to unload the hay. There's always something I can do to help out....makes me feel useful.<br /><br />Many thanks for your comments,<br />LuAnn<br />LuAnn Kessihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452504557094310816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713159193159889633.post-76986348243742622462017-07-11T00:35:49.518-07:002017-07-11T00:35:49.518-07:00Great videos!

Love watching your bottle calves...makes me laugh to see how excited they get and how quickly they can finish their bottles! Where do you get the milk for them? Am I remembering correctly that you have dairy cattle as well as beef cattle? Hubby sells Heston balers - fun to watch a round baler in action since our bales are all rectangles. More time for you in the Thread Shed now that baling is finished or do you get to help with the storing of the bales as well? Your turkey vultures are amazing...haven't seen any of those on our farm. Stay cool!!!Farm Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670652033638218941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713159193159889633.post-2260398472120751272017-07-10T20:16:23.543-07:002017-07-10T20:16:23.543-07:00Many thanks to all of you for your very sweet comm...Many thanks to all of you for your very sweet comments and your concern for the bottle calves. The goats are boer goats. The cowboy baled the last hay field today.....aaaaahhhh. The next phase of hay season is gathering up all the hay on big, long trailers and hauling it to 5 different barns for winter storage. That will probably take the rest of July to finish up. We get the month of August off, then begin feeding cattle in September when all of our pastures have dried up and there isn't any feed.<br /><br />My Best To You,<br />LuAnn<br />LuAnn Kessihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452504557094310816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713159193159889633.post-22353728832972486212017-07-10T18:19:09.936-07:002017-07-10T18:19:09.936-07:00Lovely calves grow thanks to your care !!
