Gathered from the Double Crossing pasture, our cows, calves and heifers fit nicely into our new corral. While it’s not in its final form, the corral handled everything adequately, and we have a couple of ideas to add to it.
Sorting into heifers, cows with calves, cows whose calves have been weaned already… it helped everyone get their steps in for the day! Then it was time to move things around…
In between rain showers, we sent the heifers out to the highway and Vernon and Brandon would trail them to my house. Daniel and I returned to the corral and we grabbed the cows with no calves.
Bravo and Indy had a wonderful time moving them through the fields, up the hill and down…
Then back to the corral… and within a few minutes, cows and calves were happily munching away in the field. I headed for home and ran into Vernon and Brandon still trailing heifers. Bravo was happy to help.
Whew! The new corral definitely helped speed up the process and it handled all six of us workers. Yippee for improvements!
