Another soapweedy day, April 28, 2008

[Soapweed]

Gathering a bunch to brand calves

Peach adding some more to the collection

Brady hiding behind Saddletramp

Ever onward

Not much green in the hills yet

Pushing them forward

Having a snack before we start

Peach getting stuff ready

She knows her stuff

The first group of calves ready to be roped

Ladies in waiting

The bases are loaded and I'm up to bat.

From my angle

Counting in another bunch

Saddletramp's turn to rope

A good crew. We did 122 calves today.

Back out from whence they came

The horses are glad they are done for the day.

The grand finale to my day

A little bitty deer let me down.

 

[Faster horses]

OHHHHHHHHHHHH and things were looking so good til the end!!

Your calves look really healthy and top notch, Soapweed. Thanks for sharing.

Hey Soap, what's your vaccine bill per year? Just curious and i also wondered where ya buy your vet supplies? Some folks go through thier vet and others go through supply places. We buy from Walco animal health out here in Utah. Great pictures and a new way to find "shed horns"? If i could find big mule deer horns or elk horns that way I'd be driving the tractor everywhere! :wink: That way of finding horns is almost as slick as your branding contraption!!!! :lol:
