Did you know Black Rat Snakes are actually great for the ecosystem and incredible climbers? 🌲🐍

That being said... I still vastly prefer cows. Cows stay on the ground. Cows don't climb trees. 🐄

Check out this impressive (and slightly terrifying) vertical climb! Would this make you run, or would you stay to watch? 👀

"Well, that’s one way to get the freshest bite! 🐮

This little bull calf decided the outer slants of the hay feeder were merely a suggestion and squeezed his way right into the feed. Who needs a front door when you can just move in?

Talk about taking 'all-you-can-eat' to a whole new level! 😄🌾

Baby cows are experts at hide and seek. 🐮🏻🏼

At barely 36 hours old, this little one decided the best hiding spot in the world was completely on the wrong side of the fence line! Mom was hanging out inside the pasture, completely unbothered, while her new sidekick was out exploring the perimeter.
Watch the video to see how the game of hide and seek turned out—and how fast they get tracked down! 🤦‍♂️😅

Cows generally don’t mind the cold especially if they have an energy source like the hay seen here being eaten.

Here is our current calf crew with their mommas. I'm always intrigued by the genetics, since they all share the same dad, a full Red Angus.

We had a great week with three calves birthed this week! One of them from a first time momma. 2 boys and 1 girl

Meet Miles: named for the “milestones” of firsts that he represents on our farm.

Unfortunately his mother rejected him and wouldn’t take care of him so that is now up to us. Thankfully he has the best human mom he could ever get.
