Loaded up 5 heifers, and "Old Ugly" more commonly known now as "The Rug" She got dropped off at the processin plant. Mostly will be ground meat. But we are gonna have her hide tanned and she'll be a rug for my livin room floor. (She walked off and didn't take care of her calf this year.....she's done)

On to the vets, to get the five heifers bangs vaccinated. Lil Lilly had planned on raisin a pen of three Commercial heifers for the fair next year. But our local salebarn owner asked her if she'd rather sell them in December at his replacement sale. So that's what she's gonna do.
Sure does have a nice set up.
