About a month ago, we brought all of the Mama heifers/cows home. The event took place on a Sunday, so I was a lucky farm girl and got to help!! We had a cattle pot and a stock trailer hooked up to bring everything home. My job was to stand towards the back of the cattle pot and keep the cattle moving if they decided to stop. I had to give them a little hit on the butt and say "C'mon girls, Let's go." My job was pretty important and there was no way they could have got the cattle home without me!
All in all it was a good day and it is always nice to have cattle back around the farm!
Farm Girl Tip #109: If you help bring cattle back home, make sure you request the job of "keeping the cattle moving when you bring them home." It is the best job of all!
