    Moving cattle Ohio style

    Gathering, starting to follow the bucket, moving to fresh stock-piled grass. Some of the calves investigating the empty bucket, the cows got all the corn.

    The Slacker and the Stacker

    The Slacker, me. Beautiful morning so I decided to take Hank for a ride. I think he heard me click the picture. Nice view of southeastern Ohio. Life always looks better between the ears of a good horse. The Stacker. I was riding in the smae field my husband was stacking hay in.

    Heifer herd moooving to fresh grass

    It's unusually green here for the first of October. Last year this time we were hauling water. It has made it tough putting up hay (we have second cutting getting wet right now) but the pastures have done great. We moved our heifer herd this morning to fresh grass. Though it was chilly and...

    Reclaimed stripmine land

    My ride for today. This hay ground is all reclaimed strip mine land, purchased by folks who have a small horse farm. We used to run cattle here years ago, but the landowners at that time were offered payments if they allowed trees to be planted and not used for anything else. The trees are...

    Hank, you're hired

    Between haying, bush-hogging and checking cattle, lawn care has slipped to a non priority. Didn't want to run the weedeater, so put my horse Hank to work on the trimming. He works cheap and loves his job. :lol: Yesterday we had a 3 day old calf stuck in a gulley - her Mom was bawling for...

    Lazy morning

    After spraying this bunch for flies they decided to lay down and relax with us for a while before we had to get to haying. We used UltraBoss this morning so hopefully we'll have better lasting power with it. Cattle stand real well to be sprayed with the help of a small amount of corn. Treated...

    Short dog, tall grass?

    Tall grass, Short dog! Our neighbor who we lease some pasture from had a crop of wheat and new seeding alfalfa that he wasn't happy with. He said he'd sell it to us if we wanted to bale it for our cattle. We think our cows will like it just fine - better than fescue.

    Off to the sale barn

    Took a load of 6 yearlings and 1 cull cow to the sale barn last night. The cow is one who lost her calf this year. Her first calf, 3 years ago required assistance with calving. As we were bringing her into the barn she layed down in the pond, head out, rest of her in. We finally got her out and...

    Fly control

    Had a few cases of pinkeye :( so we bought this mineral feeder for our heifer herd. They're not sure they want to stick their heads in there. we vaccinated them about 2 months ago but some still got pinkeye. We used Alpha 7 mb1 and had quite a few injection site reactions. We treated the ones...

    Nothing runs like a Deere

    Thanks for the warm welcome and I'm glad Shiloh asked how to post pictures. I may have got it! We had good luck in baling our hay yesterday and today, and it didn't get rained on once. Cows should like this hay. :D

    Sunny Days

    Just posted on bull session and I see I should have used ranch talk. Oops. I am not very computer literate, but I'll eventually get it figured out. My husband and I enjoy reading about the cattle and people on this site. Thanks again for letting us join. Tomorrow we hope to bale some hay that...
