Thanks for the very nice pics Ranchwife. It'll be another month or so before we starting foaling. Hope's pretty dang cute, as are the other babies.

We're trying to green up, but it's slow.

Have a wonderful week, and thanks again for sharing.

Cheers---

Great baby pics! Hope is adorable, and Anne's calf makes me think so much of Al's Tillie, when she was a baby...........

No babies here for us yet, but some of the neighbors are gettin a few. And the filerie has been blooming the last couple of weeks, so we're gettin in good shape! Cold as a witch's heart here this morning, first time we've had a fire in a week or longer.....and it feels good! :lol:

Thanks for the kind words, Ranchwife asked me to answer you so here goes. I'm cutting the wheat back to about 130 acres and planting all my flood irrigated ground to grass-alfalfa mix and planting another 130 acres under the pivot to straight alfalfa. I haven't had very good luck raising grain(I'm a pretty lousy farmer) besides with alot of ground being taken out of hay and planted back to grain maybe the hay prices will come up to where a feller can make a living. It will also give me a little more grass in the fall.

Sure nice to get started on the farming early like this. Last year the frost didn't even come out of the ground until April.
