Bale Wrapper
The boys decided to try their new bale wrapper today.
The wanted to make sure it works
before summer and the demand for it starts.
It needs a few minor adjustments,
but worked great overall!

Three More Calves
Easter Sunday morning
Ben looked out and saw a new calf out front.
She was loaded in the Viking
and taken over to the shed.
Her mama and two others who were close
were also walked over to the shed.
One of the others had her calf shortly after getting there.
The problem is that the mama's aren't sure whose calf is whose.
And the babies aren't sure whose mama is whose.
Life can be so confusing!
So the dark faced one is Eagle Point
and our best guess is that Cheyenne is her mom.
And we think Betsy is the mom of Bogus Basin.
The calves are not by their supposed moms in this picture!
There is no question that Phoenix is the mom of Powderhorn
who was born today!

Planting
When Ben got home from work Friday
he brought the planter home
and we all got busy.
After getting it all vacuumed and cleaned out
and the settings set
the seed went in and we went to the field.
Everyone helped in some way or another...
vacuuming, seed mixing, seed delivery, planting, packing, cleaning up, etc.
Before we headed in at 9:45
we stopped by the shed to say good-night.
And now we await the promised rain.
Keystone
Keystone!
Isn't he adorable!
And he is soooo soft!
He was born early Friday morning.
Scarlet and Keystone were moved over to the shed in the afternoon.
Quiet please.
Sleeping babies.

Tahoe
The last barn check of the evening gave us another calf.
Zelda had Tahoe.
He's a little guy
but very full of spunk.
Hershey stuck her head in the pen too.
Mammoth went over to inspect her right away.
Hershey wasn't sure what to think of this at all.
She was even more confused and nervous
when Snowbird came to join in the inspection!
