Bulls 
Pulled the baby yearling bulls off of the replacement heifers yesterday.  Forty five days of breeding is enough.  If they didn't catch by now I don't need them around.  Taken 6/16/2008.

Four new bulls that I bought a couple of weeks ago.  Angus bulls from some little breeders in the area.  They were really nice bulls that were not overfed or gussied up.  A lot of the big guys over feed their bulls knowing that fat can hide a lot of problems.  Not a problem with these.  Taken 3/30/2008.

I knew there was still two bulls missing back in the Williams place.  I've looked and looked for them but the weather was too hot and they were holed up.  I made a stab at finding them yesterday and there they were.  No problem.  It's nice to finally get everything gathered up.  Taken 10/3/2007.

I had my youngest daughter out riding with me yesterday.  I sent her down to get some bulls while I fixed the gates.  She got behind them and was bringing them up the fence like a champ.  I've had to bring her along a lot slower than the oldest with horseback riding and working cattle but it has been worth it.  She likes it better and is doing as good if not a better job than the older now.  Taken 9/21/2007.

I managed to finally get the bulls out.  I was a few days later than normal due to all the moisture we have been having recently.  It isn't quitting wither.  The are predicting one to three inches of rain in the next 36 hours and have issued flood warnings for the area due to the all ready saturated ground.  Can you say watter logged?  You can see my two helpers, my daughters, chasing the bulls in the picture.  The hired hand hasn't started yet and I needed help getting the bulls out so they were drafted.  The oldest is a hell of a hand but hates every minute of it.  The younger one has the better instincts and really enjoys it, but is a lot more tentative and needs a lot more seasoning to really make a hand.  Taken 6/5/2007.

A bull enjoying the early morning sun.  All the black critters really enjoy the sun on these cold mornings.  It freezes them in place while they soak it up.  Taken 12/01/2006.

Trailing the bulls out to be with the ladies.  They were getting awfully hot and tired by this point but once they saw the ladies they forgot all about that problem.  Typical males.  Taken 6/2/2006.

Three of the lucky five bulls that got to go out with the young ladies and have some fun.  They didn't seem very interested when we arrived at their destination but I am sure that will change.  Taken 5/3/2006.

The four Gelbvieh bulls I bought from Midland Bull Test arrived yesterday.  It was nice to get them but it sure blew a hole in my day of seeding.  Nice looking bulls if I do say so myself.  Taken 4/30/2006.
