Still no photos...
The really big news here is we've gotten some rain!!!! In the last two days, we've had about three inches of the wonderful stuff. We also received about an inch a week or so ago. So the grass is starting to green up again, the tank has filled up about eight inches, and the temperatures have moderated to 85-95 degrees. The dust has settled and mud is every where. BUT we'll take it!!!
We will start feeding the mamas in the evenings again in anticipation of birthing babies which may begin in early October. This change in feeding times will no doubt cause some confusion. They'll catch on and there will be NO no shows at feeding time.
The second set of twins has been moved into the pasture by the house to start their weening process. Both Fred and Ethel have been very vocal about being separated from their mom, Brownie. Brownie has been front and center reassuring them along the fence line. I have to say her mothering skills have been fantastic raising these two calves.
