Time to Clean
I am back from jury duty and the chores never stop! Today I focused a lot of cleaning the stalls and spreading fresh bedding into the large group pens that we have in the calf barn. These large group pens act as a transition area for our girls to get used to eating silage and solid foods before we bring them across town. Every Friday I make a post about hauling dry cows and this is the same location where we keep our growing heifers after they are weaned. There are several large barns with outdoor areas for the girls to play in and they get especially excited when they get clean bedding.
