Howdy Folks,
Wow, where did all our grass go so fast?
It’s hard to believe in one year how things can
change from flood to drought. In our country the
crops were really great without much moisture.
The hay, we won’t talk about it. I just thank God I
had a lot of carry over, especially corn silage.
Anyhow, the boys have been fed the same
as always: corn silage, a Hubbard heavy weight
pellet mixed with some shelled corn and all the
long mixed hay they wanted. The bulls look great.
They sure had good weather; kind of up and down
but did stay healthy through it all. It’s still nice to
have a vet in the family, even if I don’t need her
vet assistance much. But don’t get me wrong, I
still need her help. She did have off for a little
while in early fall to give me another grandson,
though. Marci & I sure enjoy those grandkids.
Disposition is a high priority for me. But
somehow this year I am a little disappointed on
the Odin-sired calves. Radio going and all the
hand feeding sure does help.
We hope to see you at the sale. And wish
you the best with your purchases. Stay healthy and
hope to see ya down the trail. May God bless you
all.
