The Visitors

We have some visitors out here on the plains.

a7Their mommy and daddy are at Disney World with the other kids, so we get to babysit.  Sawyer named this calf Cinderella way back when she was purchased…and it stuck.  I LOVE big, fuzzy-eared cattle.  She’s my fave.

a9She had a calf this past year which is named Gus Gus.  Rightfully so.

a8This little momma’s name is Daisy.  We raised her as a bottle calf when we lived in Denver.  Wrex’s boss’ family showed her some and then sold her to her new home.  She’s as sweet as pie.  (Elise – this is the one you fed when you lived with us.  You called her Precious, but regardless…)

a10They’re all gentle ladies.  Sawyer likes to treat them (aka entice them to come her way) with a little nibble of corn.

a4Ozark the pony has been sharing his space with such grace.  They’re constantly checking him out.  They don’t have much to worry about out, though. He can’t steal their feed as he has no real teeth left.  He gets a special senior horse feed which takes a special line in our budget.  He’s totally worth it though.  More on him some other time.  He’s a dandy.

a1It’s been fun to have a few new projects around.  One of the heifers is due to calve any day now and we can’t hardly wait.  Hoping I can catch that one on camera.  Wish me luck!
