Have no idea but it is very lively for being so little so thinking it might have. DS said the cow that had the last/newest calf is probably the mother... the calf with her is very small also... but he said she seems to be very upset/high strung up there in the field, and would not let him...

How's the pond and fish situation? Did water finally go down to manageable levels? Glad to hear your DH is doing a little better... hoping for continued improvement

@Chic Rustler ; Been another week... how are they doing?

Wind wasn't bad here earlier either, and sunny day... but it has picked up now to be just chilly again... Sorted cows and worked calves... was going to the sale with a couple but it didn't work out that way.... next week I hope... but they are moved down to the barn lot so will be closer to...

@CrealCritter , they have a TON of stuff.... interesting....

Good price and sounds like they might be good to deal with... but I personally do not want seeded grapes for eating... the old Concords that we used to pick from wild as a kid had seeds and had great flavor for jelly... but not wanting seeded for table eating... I am going to look up their...

All service dogs are raised in a family setting as pups... give it some time, give him all the love you can, and wait to see what develops down the road... What is meant to be will happen with him....

Not saying that they aren't going to make more profits.... BUT.... minimum wage has gone up again.... and that results in the cost of their products having to go up... so rather than raise the price, people are used to paying xx dollars... so they get a little less and don't "feel" it so much...

Corn has to be planted every year. The seed grows the stalk, the corn stalk makes the ear, the corn kernels in the ear are allowed to mature to hard/dry kernels and that is what grows a new corn stalk. If they make silage the whole plant is cut off above the ground and chopped up and stored...

@CrealCritter did something similar with cleaning out the barn/chicken area to use in the kiddie pools he started the asparagus seeds in ...

That's what I said.... HUH ??????

Chicken flavored ham?????

Also, to get it drier, use a cheap utility type heater (milk house heaters we called them) ... stand the brooder on one end, face the inside and let the heater blow into it to dry it more... and I would do one more spray down with bleach water.... to get it a little damp but not really wet...

The only other suggestion I would have is to paint the whole inside of the brooder with a good enamel paint to seal it .... but obviously you cannot do it with having just washed it and needing it to use again. Agree something came in with the other chicks... I also would go with the medicated...

@tortoise ... some cows will take a calf grafted on them pretty well, some do not. I have pretty good luck with getting them to take them normally... but this cow had very little in the way of an udder... Unfortunately, she came in the barn the next day all swelled up in the vulva area, gave...

Our co-op has asparagus root crowns and they are pretty decent looking... $25 for 25 in a bunch... so I think that is reasonable... I might go on and get one bunch... Have to see what kind they are... would get a year ahead... and still do some seeds.

@R2elk.... we have also gotten frost here on Memorial day... I do not get in too big a rush to get garden in.... Easier for me to do most all of it at one time... try to do some of the "cool weather crops" earlier... but mostly do the major part of it all at once, then do some succession...

We have another 6 weeks before our last "frost date".... May 10th.... Thinking about maybe seed starting in another week or so....

Welcome from the western side of Va ... Yep, garden then chickens... then keep adding... :lol::gig:thumbsup:thumbsup
