Bonnie had a Boy

Monday, March 25, 2024
Hello friends,
              March madness is upon us!  The first week of the tournament is a little crazy, and then it settles down.  I don’t fill out the whole bracket, but I keep track of the teams as they advance.  No local teams are left so we just enjoy basketball for the sport of it. 
              A little madness around here when two of the dairy cows found a way to get out of their pasture and attack the grass in a forbidden area.  Literally, they acted like they were high on grass.  They were kicking up their heels, running wildly in the wrong direction from the milking parlor.  The other cows were concerned for them, thinking they were stuck behind the electric fence, and they were mooing at them.  Then when it was time to milk, they acted like they didn’t know where to go.  It looked all new.  Strange.  Everyone is now back where they belong.
              Bonnie had her calf last Tuesday and it was a boy of course!  Argh!  God must know what he is doing, but all the bull calves are just not necessary.  Bonnie has a pile of milk, but she has still not cleaned out after calving so she is not contributing to the milk supply yet.  The next birth should be in about a month.  Blossom is a heifer, so we’ll have to train her first…
