Called the manure spreading good for now and got 472 loads out total. That was all the easy stuff to get and there’s still a bunch of piles in the bush and sloughs which will have to wait for next time. Must be in the second cycle of calving as they slowed up which is nice so we can get in the field.



This guy wins the cute award so far and just fell out today. The cleft palate calf we had did great but quit eating this morning and I’ll put him down tonight. There’s a spare calf from a heifer that refused to take her own so I’ll skin him out and play matchmaker tonight. Not the funnest job around.

Hope the sun sticks around for a while to get some ground ready 🍀

Momma is sure "heads up".

I seem to remember blacks as being good protective mothers. Usually "neat" udders and vigorous calves.

Kinda low maintenance, unlike the Bourgault drill!!!

Tell me about it😎
We got a 4710 (not a typo) drill in front of the shop that is getting rebuilt currently with all new sc****rs, disks, and hoses. We like the job it does though and with how much old hay-land and rocks it sees a shank machine isn’t an option.

Our cows are pretty low maintenance considering how much muskeg and bush they deal with. Only come home for two weeks at weaning and six weeks at calving. The rest of the year I only want to look at them and not touch them out in the field.


Pairs looking happy 3 miles from home last fall where we got a silage pit to burn up that’s been “aging “ for three years.

Good luck with your seeding........ I know we usually need it to get things done out here.

I asked him if he's living off tube steaks, bologna sandwiches or a few rings of garlic sausage and a couple loaves of bread....and liquor. He called it the food of Champions.

A bag of sliced bread, a jar of peanut butter and a knife. Good for the day...
