This Week’s Story: Winter Cold, Winter Quiet

Dear Friends

This morning, I went up to the corrals to break water for the two weanling fillies I picked up from a neighbor last week. The frost was still opaque on the windshield as I made my way up the driveway, and I peered through the small area above the windshield where the defroster…

Ranch News

The wind was blowing a bit this morning, so Rose and Jed fed the cattle in a tight spiral. This way, the cattle are closer together and shield each other from the brisk breeze, while generating heat together in close quarters. Photo credit Melanie Elzinga.

They have been tearing out the old fence and replacing it with a new jack-and-rail fence. They will then add hog panels along one side to make sure no calves can slip under the rails. Photo credit Justice Mitchell.

This week Rose and Josh worked on installing a new pole from which to hang a dust bag full of diatomaceous earth. Photo credit Josh Whitling.

They anchored it to an already existing tripod (pictured on the left). These jack and rail tripods are scattered all over the ranch, and they keep the cattle from rubbing on, stomping on, and damaging things like irrigation risers and the like. Photo credit Rose Morris.

The diatomaceous earth in the bag dusts the cattle as they stand next to and walk under it. This helps combat any lice or other bugs that affect our cattle. These bugs, untreated, can lead to the cows rubbing off patches of their hair as they seek to alleviate their itchiness. In the winter these bald patches can cause frost damage to their skin.
