Weekly randomness

We had a quick stretch of nice weather so we took care of banding the new bull calf and doing minor maintenance around the farm. We keep having rounds of everyone getting sick and generally feeling crappy. I am ready for winter to be over.

There has got to be a better way to do this, but I don’t know what it is. Maybe we will invest in a squeeze chute some day, but for now we kidnap the calf, I tackle him, and Karmin does the dirty work. Ellie Mae and this unnamed calf were champs. Calmest and easiest pair so far. The rest of the herd wasn’t even concerned at all. Usually we have a pissed off audience.

We let Eunice sit on some eggs and this is what happened. By ‘We’ I of course do not mean ‘we.’ One of us made a unilateral decision and here ‘we’ are.
