Cal, if we can just hang on until tomorrow, it sounds like the weather will moderate a bit. We probably have about eight inches of new snow, and the moisture is definitely welcome. We are sure enjoying having a night man, though Peach Blossom and I just got in from feeding bucket calves. We have five at the moment, and she thinks they should be fed three times a day. Twice would be enough for me, but she is more kind-hearted. :wink:
We are over the half-way point on calving, so things have slowed down a little bit, but still the barns are about full. We have one old snakey cow that I was not going to bring in with the heavies, but the last time we sorted, I brought her along knowing the weather was going to take a turn for the worse. She is calving now, and the night man and I just put her in a corral where there is some protection. Hate to put her in the barn, as she would probably pulverize the place.
We haven't joined the four-wheeler set, yet, but I did get a used Polaris Ranger six-wheeler. Thought it might be useful for fencing in the spring, and it has been handy around the calving lot. It's kind of a noisy contraption, and it sure doesn't have a radio or a heater

, but at least it has a roof and a windshield.
Keep on having fun. Spring is just around the corner.
