Snow or shine, our team is always out there, helping animals in need. This abandoned pup will finally be warm and safe! Our hearts ache for the countless animals left out in the cold, and we plead with everyone—please make space for them in your home. No animal should have to freeze to death.

FIRST ALERT WEATHER: Confidence continues to increase for a very heavy snow event next Tuesday, with the coldest air of the winter to follow. Most models continue to show the possibility of *greater than 6" of snow* for much of our region. This can still change...stay tuned!

My buddy George making sure I get the hay unstacked and that I set out extra for next week.
Wednesday’s weather forecast is now a low of -5 degrees Fahrenheit. Windchills will be -13 to -19.
I know some of you are already colder than that.

Vitamin A is very important for your cattle.
It is the most expensive vitamin additive for prepared grain mixtures.
Most of the “cheaper” creep feeds or grower feeds will not have it so that costs are kept lower.
It pays to read the ingredient labels and decide what to buy.

Cattle maintained in confinement cannot get enough without supplementation.

Well ….. I did not plan this out very well. There is no getting out that gate by myself.
Trying to “shoo” them away was just a version of ring-around-the-rosie (tractor).
After their strategic blockade, reinforcements arrived.
You would think this was my first day on the farm. LoL

Tonight when it was Pebble’s potty time, I was not paying attention to her until I heard her getting excited. Our 12 year old barn cat Smokey had seen me on the back patio and decided to visit. I am glad that he is tolerant of her. Pebbjes is about 7lbs and he is over 13lbs. (Today was weaning day for the calves. You can hear the momma cows calling them)

Update: Tinney’s Jasmine and calf Tinney’s Major

This morning when I came out to check on Jasmine and her calf Major, Major was zooming around mama and just having the best time. You may recall a post that I did a couple of days ago about Jasmine (who was a first time heifer) not letting her calf nurse. But this morning all is good in the neighborhood
