A far bigger problem this past winter was the bulls. Vast shortage of bulls with reproduction capability. Maybe they want to invent something for that........................

When my parents had a ranch in Colorado if it turned real cold in early Spring when calves were small he would build a bonfire. The cows would bring their babies in by the fire. Not sure what the learning curve was for that, I was too little.

Did not know that! No wonder it is hard to find. Plus not too many grow oats here, mostly wheat.

The new open space while their moms are munching i
On new grass we baled two weeks ago. I told the neighbor to let em play until morning before the tractors start up again.

Sure would like to buy that place and clean it up good.
