We don't seem to really get a spring, it's winter, in between, and summer. I'm not a big fan of in between.
Snowblower don't do much good on ice. The good part of a sloped lot is snow melt off runs down hill. The bad part is unless your'e on the apex of the hill, the neighbors runoff turns your driveway into a skating rink.
Is that winter or summer?

Had to pull the first calf of the year last night, leg back but luckily the calf is/was fine. Always worried when you find one like that.
It was a straight up blizzard yesterday afternoon(about 2 hours after I took the vid...). Not much a guy can do, mess around too much and the paranoid old cows will wander off to have a calf. Chopped straw and left.
Yes, getting it to the ground will be next, but not a bad next
i ran drag radials on my charger, they are DOT approved but more of a slick.

Jim, Daniel boy is quite the character when he wants to be.........grin
Neighbor's bull?
But at the same time it's almost April so you gotta expect an early one.
Wicked wind blowing here and it's cold(for calving).
Right off the bat this morning I found a day old calf hung up in a box elder tree. Still in the hot box(60F), worried about it's feet.......
Later on in another bunch noticed a little heifer calf mooching off of whoever was standing still. Assuming a twin that nursed once and then was rejected.
Around 60-70 calves so far.
And at this rate it'll be another month before there's much green grass.
It was down in the teens last night, woke up to some fresh snow this morning in the flathead. It might be a rough spring on calves, good luck. On the bright side, in another month you should be able to get a full nights sleep :-)

Heifers are 2/3rds done, all good. Should clarify that every morning the calves stay in the pens while the heifers go out to eat. Thus the note cards so I know who goes back into what pen....
Pretty sure I have the shakey thing down! (and is it just me or is that cow givin' the stink eye?!)
