*Ahem* (Slightly overdue post)

     As is mentioned in the post title, I am afraid I'm a few days late. Oops. For those of you put off the blog entirely by this, don't worry, there isn't much to post now anyway. There will be, however, in a few weeks when calving starts! (You might want to forget your anger by then so you can see the pictures of... (drum roll) baby calves!!!! (No, the hype was not unnecessary even if I had already mentioned calving season.) Seeing as it's wonderfulness is approaching us, I thought I would talk a little about that.

     Calving season may start early this year due to our bulls getting out. (See this and this) It could start in early February rather than March. Currently all we have to do for the cattle is feed them in the morning and the evening and be certain they have water, but our duties will directly increase to early morning and late night checks to see if anyone has calved. This is mainly for the younger cows -especially first timers- because they are more likely to have problems in birth. For me and my many siblings, it also includes guessing which cows will calve first. =D Ones I noticed this morning were Miss Combobulated and Abigail. I'll tell you if my notions go anywhere.
     That pretty much sums up my last week, thusly drawing this post to a close. Thank you for reading! *deep bow*
