Okay, I know I complained about the hot weather, but tonight we are under a frost warning. (really??) This is Georgia and our weather is a little fickle. The saying is if you don't like the weather just wait thirty minutes and it will change. Tuesday we were working in shorts and T shirts, Wednesday we needed a jacket, today we needed a fire.
I had three new calves in the calf pen, they looked so cold and lonely I turned them out with the herd. When we opened the gate to let them out my lead cow and several of the older girls came running into the calf pen. They tested the water, licked the salt block, ate the hay, and even checked the food trough just in case some food had been left. It was like a Chinese fire drill, we were trying to get calves out and cows were coming in. After thirty minutes of chasing animals in the cold we finally succeeded in getting everyone out...
Things everyone (or every cow) wants to know:
1) what do others eat
2) what do they have to drink
3) what does their house look like
