Sold

Sent a cow and two heifers to the auction yesterday. Usually there is sadness when animals have to go. However, this time the cow was a really mean one. When she was young, she jumped on Liz's head and knocked her out cold.

The other day she attacked our finished beef steer and nearly broke his neck. It was gratuitous. He was in his stall just minding his own business and she ran up in with him and beat the heck out of him.

She wasn't giving much milk. We have some bills to pay. So....

Then this morning we were missing a heifer. She has gotten out with another Holstein heifer a couple of time before so we weren't real, real, worried until we realized that she was out alone. 

Cows rarely stray without a buddy. 

Deer season starts Saturday and she is red and black. 

We hear guns going off all day every day all around, including on our land.

Becky was all set to put on an orange vest and take her phone and go looking, when Liz saw her up behind the barn.

I really wish the deer would stop tearing down the electric fence in that field!
