Hello
I'm writing a story where its world is set on a ranch in Northeastern Texas, during late spring and summer months.
Do cows give birth during these months?
Being from the city, I don't have a clue about ranch life, so I'm wondering for those who do could be so kind to inform me.
I'm interested in what the duties/chores would be. I suspect to check the fencing, irrigation ditches for leaks, etc.
I'm also interested in the procedure to immunize the cattle, giving shots and medicine.
Besides the main house for living, what type of housing is on the ranch and it's purpose, such as a barn?
Do ranches typically supplement their income by having farming or fruit orchards along with cattle?
What time does the work day begin and end? Is the work week 5 days or 6 days a week?
Any help on ranch life would be appreciated, thank you.
