Moving Cows!

What a week!

David has moved all of our cattle to our home place. Here, they will be rotated on thirty acres for three weeks so that they can receive two series of vaccinations. We couldn't have got it all done without help from Mr. Smith and his son, Jacob. They have been with David for the last four days loading and helping with the shots.

One bull, a tan mixed we call Czech Mark, because of the sign on his forhead, will be pulled from the meat program. He was looking very run down and David gave him a shot of penicillin. We treat animals if they are run down or sick, but they are not sold as meat from our farm. He will go to sale in two weeks.

Everyone else looks gorgeous! It's so nice to have everyone in our back yard - it's time for a bigger back yard!
