    Grants mini herd

    They can. It’s two of the smartest breeds of dogs out there. They can be trained to do about anything. My Pyredoodle is every bit of the guard dog any Pyrenees would be. But no shedding. This is Murphy with my Aussie.

    It’s confirmed. I’ll have my 1st 2 litters of puppies in June. Bordoodles from my 2 Border Collies. Just excited to share. I won’t try to sell here.

    I’m glad to have bulls. No need to worry about a bull around a steer. My plan is to feed them all out to 2 years. Heifers become more of an issue.

    Tell me about your farm workhorses...ATVs, 4 wheelers, tractors, side by sides, etc.

    I’ve got a golf cart that I use all the time. Saves 100s of steps. I put a set of rear tires that look like tractor tires on for traction and it goes about anywhere I need it too. I’ve also got a 2004 BRANSON 2910 TRACTOR THAT DOES THE HEAVY LIFTING.

    Homemade Colostrum for animals: 3 Cups milk (preferably raw and whole. In a pinch you can use storebought, but results may vary.) 1 egg; lightly whipped 1 Tablespoon sugar, honey, or corn syrup. Whichever one you've got. 1 teaspoon cod liver oil.

    Our barn burned down and we need to build a new one

    I’ll just say this…whatever size you think you need…it’s not big enough.

    Newborn calf!!

    All dried off that’s a real looker. Last years calf will probably continue unless you separate them.

    We are good now, but had snow last week. That’s late for us, but we’ll be in the 80s tomorrow. Typical MO weather. On separate news we should have a litter of puppies or 2 in June. Our 1st litters of Bordoodles.

    Little Sterling is GROWING. Fast. Eating at meal time and I see him picking out in the pasture. Momma Hallie has done wonderful and it looks like Aunt Honeyneut should be delivering any day now.

    When to send to slaughter

    Use a California binder and castrate the bulls then finish them out. Get date for the butcher like farmerjan said at about 24-27 months. But get appts now! Sell 3, keep 1, enjoy. The California banner will run about $50 with bands. But do it soon.

    Yeah, it’s a big deal. I take mine in between 24-26 months typically, so it’s not as much of an issue. Honestly, my butcher didn’t ask. 🤭🤫

    Had 1st steaks tonight. KC strips. Well marbled very tender with good flavor. We scored! The fat layer has a bit of a taste, but just the outer layer. It may be due to the hanging time. It’s easy to cook on then trim that though. With the minis I won’t separate strips and filets again...
