The girls meet their bull.

As we had success getting the cows in yesterday, Janette thought we should try to get them up to the top paddock with the promise of some hay.
When the cows are hungry, they'll go to any length to get some hay. There's so much grass at the moment, they're not hungry. I sometimes think that they follow the tractor because a memory tells them that's what they do.
So, I did the usual hay roll on the tractor forks and drove up the road a little so I was just above where they were. I threw a bit of hay over the fence. A couple seemed a little bit interested but there wasn't much movement. Then Janette got behind them and gave them a nudge, they moved up the fence-line next to the road and we hoped they would keep going.
Janette drove ahead and threw lucerne hay over the fence to keep enticing them.
Once over the top, we knew we weren't going to lose them. I took them down to the bull paddock where Janette already had the gate open.
He really kicked up his heels when he came out!
Janette prepped the cottage this afternoon as we have a hunter coming in tomorrow - Glenn from Wodonga. We think his wife will be with him this time. We'll have them over for dinner one night.Leer más
