Neighbor's Cow Jumped The Fence To Come See Us In South Texas!

3" of rain today. First rain in months. My cousin (and neighbor) took this picture of a rattlesnake climbing out of a mesquite tree hollow. Not your everyday experience. 11/29/20

Beautiful milk cow in South Texas! Actually she is a nurse cow for any 'orphan' calves. Angus cattle have twins. Often! Mastitis sometimes, but rarely, will take the milk of a mama so her calf goes to Elsie, shown above. She is a pill but we love her.

Believe it.

A new nurse! The sweet heart is half Holstein and half Jersey and 6 years old. It took her a day or two but she accept her first charge. These Angus have twins with some regularity so a nurse cow is a good thing! Two nurse cows with 3 'kicked off' calves so far. 012919

This is not mine. But I love the saying.

Too true!

Doc, I enjoy your blog!

Your blog is useless and lame, as are the ppl who follow you. Just delete it.

I might delete it one day. Today’s not the day.

A410 chillin' in the brush! He's serviced all the girls and needs to relax. 1 of 6 bulls on the home place breeding 120 cows. 7/2019 in south Texas.

A Butcherbird aka Loggerhead Shrike captured and stored this moth on a barb for the future!

Setting a new blind out. This blind isnt going any where when your bro works for a metal business.
