Trailing the yearlings to fresh pasture. There was nothing wrong with where they were at but I do need to save some grass there for later in the year so it was time to move them. taken 6/24/2008.( Sarpy Sam)

I was a little behind schedule feeding this day and the yearlings were coming looking for their feed. Once they saw me, they came on a dead run like they were starving to death. Taken 2/26/2008.( Sarpy Sam)

I tell My Darling Wife I'm out seeing a good looking red head every day. I thought I should share a picture of her. Damn fine looking, isn't she. Taken 2/14/2008.( Sarpy Sam)

Some of the two year old heifers crowded around me looking for their cake. I have started caking everything since the tubs I am using are running a little lean and the cake is a lot cheaper source of protein than the tubs. You can see some calves stalking the fence in the background looking for their handout too. Taken 12/18/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

The coming two year olds out grazing on a cold, crisp morning. I was hoping to get the sparkle in the grass better but you can still see it some. Taken 12/9/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

One of the yearling replacement heifers. A little bit of green grass is coming in this Crested Wheat Grass and they really enjoy chasing it. They are forced to get some old grass with it on every bite so it really makes good feed. Taken 10/21/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

These yearlings were really curious at what we were up to at the fire scene. They kept wandering around getting in the way. The Hired Hand said they were wondering why they weren't invited to the barbeque. Taken 8/6/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

Some yearling replacement heifers trying to figure out what I am doing. I swear i have never had a more curious bunch of cattle before. They rarely ever spook from a person. They are more curious about what you are doing than anything. I've been trying to breed them calmer and quieter and I guess it's working. Taken 7/2/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

Gathered the yearlings and moved them to a different pasture yesterday. I had two bulls with foot rot with them in the past few days so I decided it was time to pull the bulls, normally I do it the first of July so I am only a few days early, and move them so I could look them all over for foot rot. I ended up taking 6 critters home and doctoring them for foot rot. Hopefully the problem will be over now. Taken 6/26/2007.( Sarpy Sam)

I'll never figure my critters out. With all kinds of good feed out on the flats, they decide they need to act like mountain goats and cling to the steep hill sides grazing. Go figure. Taken 5/26/2007.( Sarpy Sam)
