Calling All Bulls
Less than 10 yards away, but across the lawn and 2 5-wire fences, stands a group of young heifers. These guys stand and talk to them several times a day.

Winter Feeding
Get out of the pickup, cut the netting and roll it into a ball. Allow the dog to "guard" her position. Pitchfork off the hay and check the herd health. Another bale, another pasture, another group. |

Red Angus ArrivalsOur 40 new Red Angus heifers started calving the last part of January, just in time for an ice storm. The babies are hardy and we are anxious to get everything acclimated into the herd. |

June in Bulgaria. Haying season was in full swing. And by swing, I am referring to swing the scythe and swing the pitchfork. |

July in Colorado. It was cool and green. Traditions live in harmony with progress.
