Cattle to Victor

On June 3rd, we took half our herd to Victor, Idaho for the summer.

The Cranes hauled the cows and we took a load of calves. It was a painless trip considering what we went through last year. (Unloading in the dark at about 1:00 am). After the cows and calves paired up we headed to town for one of the best burgers I had eaten in a long time.





What better way to deworm than as they are coming off the truck!






We feel very fortunate to have this option for our herd.  When Dirk's parents sold their place in Victor they retained this prime peice of property. The pasture consists of two 80 acre parcels, which are cross fenced, making it easy to rotate through-out the summer.

It also gives us a good excuse to get out of town to check the cows!
