Yesterday My Cowboy moved our personal herd of 1st-calf heifers to the corrals. We have a small herd of 1st-timers, so it didn’t take him too long to get them moved. It was a sunny. bright day, but windy and cold.
Here they come.
He rode up the hill a bit, so they wouldn’t try to go where they didn’t belong.
They went easily into the gate…
Cold weather gear includes a wool Scotch cap, down vest, Carhartt coat, leather leggings, and silk wild rag. (neck scarf) Riding in the cold wind calls for lots of warm layers.
All done…
Happy calving season! 😉
Trust they all calve without any complications. When are they to start calving? As always I love the pics.
They are due to start any day, Eunice. The ranch’s heifers are nearly finished, thankfully. 🙂
You take beautiful pictures! Thanks for sharing a slice of your lives on the ranch.
Thank you, Nicole! 🙂 I’m enjoying your blog as well.
Thanks for sharing this experience! Looks like it was a very cold day,but still beautiful.
