I worked a cattle farm for a guy for 7 years started when I was 17 years old and quti when I was 24. The man called me this afternoon and asked if I could take care of his cattle this winter. He is an older man and not getting around good in the cold snow.

I started this evening for him, he is running 70 feeder heifer cattle running on 236 acres. I started this eveing by placeing 500# of ground corn on the back of the flat and drove the cattle into the feedlot and poured the corn into the feedtubs. Dana and I then drove around and running the straglers into the feedlot and getting a head count. I got to put roll hay out with a Kubota, its not green and yellow but will have to do. All in all take me about an hour, then I got to come into my place and feed mine.

I will get some good pics of his herd, he is running mostly black and black/white face cattle. Will post this weekend.
