Well, our new heifers are here and in the barn getting accustomed to us. They are progressing nicely. This weekend we will be processing 45 more chickens with only one batch left for November. Wednesday we moved the cattle to a new pasture, and they are eating away. I will be moving them again on Sunday to the back pastures one more time before they come up here for winter. Our grass is holding up nicely and we should be right on schedule for our winter feeds. We will begin our breeding program in November--most likely around Thanksgiving as I will be taking a course in AI so we will be able to breed on our own- without the use of an outside breeder. I am very optimistic about the direction we are going with our cattle. They have been finishing nicely for us, and they slight change in breeds should optimize our resources to be turned into forage. Our hogs are still outside rooting around and the layers are coming along nicely.
