Here's a few pictures of our new cattle. Yesterday we purchased a minature hereford bull, two minature hereford cows, two Zebu (minature brahman) that are pregnant, 1 minature longhorn with a 2 week old calf at side and an F1 steer (his parents are the zebu and hereford bull). We didn't get a picture of the bull when we were out there. I think we were awestruck at him. He weighs about 1000 pounds. He is beautiful. He was kicking dirt up on himself, so he looked like he was going to charge. The guy is going to start delivering a few at a time probably starting next week when he gets back into town. We are going to let the zebu's deliver first and wait a few weeks before we transport them and their calves. We have a lady coming out today to look at our pasture. We are hoping to have it sprayed with compost tea. Trying to live without chemicals.....
Had never heard of the mini hef, had to 'google' it :)
