Friday morning... The sun is coming over the tree line... we were supposed to have some spotty showers and got a sprinkle yesterday that barely got the road wet. Thursday; Got up at 3 a.m. picked up DS and went to test the 500+ cow herd... it went okay but there are over 550 cows now... had...

I would be just be "paying his bills" over and above what the disability payments cover... can't stop me from putting money in his account , or paying his bills..... and he is only helping me on the farm... no compensation and neither of us take a salary/paycheck from any of the farm work... his...

Also, no I am not going to have to pay his bills... but I may forego my half of cows that we own joint, when we sell any, to put towards him paying one of the guys that comes and helps him... We don't own too many joint anymore... but it might help him a little since he is going to have to pay...

There was talk of an early "buyout" for people close to retirement... he is watching that closely... hoping that it would come about... so he could go off the disability, get his "full retirement", and then do whatever he wants after that. That will not affect the workman's comp situation as...

Yes, once he is eligible for his full retirement, he will go off the disability... in any case, it will end in 5 years... so once off the disability, he can collect full retirement... go to work somewhere else... whatever... For some people, they would go from a work disability to SS disability...

10;30... home from the farm. It is still a very slight mist.... Yes, @Ridgetop , she will get preg checked whenever we have the vet since we have to take the 2 hol heifers down to get dehorned and bangs vacc... she will get on the trailer to go to doug's barn also. Will decide what to do...

Went to the farm this morning, set up meters. Did the cow, she was waiting near the barn... she came just inside the gate... jersey calf went to her and she backed right out and then went around the barn out loose with the calf... I was NOT happy. Then she came back and in the gate into the...

Yeah... "front engine".....NAH.....

Most dairies don't have any problem with the "fall back"... the cows are still working on DST, so are eager to get in the barn for milking. I haven't heard any farmers overly concerned over a difference in milk. Spring is the tougher time, because the cows are not ready to get going and the...

Welcome :welcome from Va...Cattle, chickens, sheep, garden, whatever else comes along....:gig So explain the avatar "Lilac the cow" ????? Please put your general location in so we have an idea of where you do your "farming"...

Too late to take a pic of the cow... maybe tomorrow when I go up and get her in for grain and such...

Did it all the time as a kid.... My grandparents had some property and there was their house, then the gas station, then the diner, then a small row of stores.... little "corner grocery" , barbershop/beauty parlor, and something else. All backed up to their "pond".... that years prior was dug...

She moved this kitten in the truck... feeling it was "safe" from the predators... Leave the window open for her and let her go in and feed it over the nightime hours... Don't know if you have a "safer spot" to put it in the box for her to go to it during the day time. She will feed it if you...

Monday night. Gee, it gets dark early :hide ..... Went up to rake the grass/hay. The front tire on the tractor looked a little low, so went back to the barn, got the air tank, put air in it, and went back and put some air in the tire... Then raked it. But will have to get DS to look it...

She might be a pretty cow, and she is not mean... but this is not her calf. She has been used as a nurse cow and probably came in to the calves to feed them... she came to the barn when she saw my car come in. Finally got there and came around to the right gate... went in, right back out with...

Regardless of who's name it is in, the trailer is still illegal so it if gets removed, she will not have a place to live...and if the kids get fined, then it might just get them to "wake up"....
