Monday February 19th, hope everybody had a great weekend. Happy President’s Day. We may not always agree with our leaders but the one thing we can agree on is that they need our prayers Well that is enough of a political slant for me today. I may write another blog post on my political views but not today.
Surprise, Surprise, I have not ordered my boots yet. I plan to order the boots today. I looked at my work gloves and boots this morning and finally realized that I am really hard on my clothes. As I donned my grocery bags to keep the mud off my socks, I knew today is the day. The boots are getting ordered!
Update on our milk cow breeding situation, we chose to put Daisy and Poppy with the beef herd so they get the benefits of rotational grazing. We moved them down on Thursday and let them have all day Friday to adjust. It seemed to go well. They are still working out the pecking order but overall Daisy and Poppy seem very happy. Friday evening I started bringing Daisy up to the paddock by the house that way I can milk in the morning. It seems to be going well so far. I hope Daisy gets bred. I have seen Oreo, our bull, sniffing around but he hasn’t been caught in the action yet.
The piglets are getting big. We are a little concerned about the runt. She seems to be stalled on her growth.
Well, till next time. Get in the Dirt & Get Growing!!!
