Preconditioning calves, September 11, 2012

Sunflower's shirt proclaims "Smokey," but it should have read, "Dusty."

Preconditioning calves born to first-calf heifers this spring.

Our new alley works pretty well.

That is my own sweat on these gloves. :wink:

Chugging a can of Arizona Sweet Tea. Mission accomplished in 20 seconds, according to Sunflower's
stop watch on her cell phone. I actually did it in 18 seconds, but being a good conservative Republican,
managed to kill a couple seconds making sure to get the last couple of drops of the precious liquid. :wink:

Looks dusty for sure. It's plenty dry here now but the heifers are getting moved onto the hay meadows this week. Had some excitement today. Seams some unsavory fellas are growing wild weed in the DNR management area the long arm of the law were searching all afternoon and when I headed home there were plenty of squad cars and a helicopter in on the search.The grass I have is'nt as risky as I was hauling load after load today and never once got pulled over.

It's just that good honest look upon your face.

Nice. That formost chute looks pretty good. We have been very happy with our formost cradle. Your crew is spoiled working with a new alley.
