Cow Rustling

I can now officially say Rob and I have rustled cows! A friend of ours has two Highlands she needed help moving from one pasture to another and we took on the challenge. We're not very good at it, but we got it done. Next time, as the saying goes, it won't be our first rodeo. 

We're keeping busy as we do. Rob unfortunately had to work all weekend, but we still made the most of the time we had. 

So, some not so good news. Either it's because it's summer or because of this breed, we've lost three of our ten Jersey Giants already. They're being trampled on it looks like and considering they're safely in the greenhouse, it appears they're doing it to their coop mates. I'm hoping that as they mature, they'll settle down and behave. 

That's the only dark spot on the farm right now. I'm really thinking Maesie is bred and about to give us a calf. Either that, or she's letting her midsection go way too early in life. 

Proof dogs and cats can get along
