Was doing chores and decided to take some pics. Everything is looking good right now. These first four steers I bought over a year ago and are going in to be butchered next month. I'm keeping one half and the rest are sold direct.
The larger one in this pen is going in in July and is all sold as well. The other two haven't been scheduled yet, but I'm thinking next February or March when money frees up after the holidays.
I almost lost the black one with white face in this pen to acidosis, I had never seen or heard of that before and she got pretty bad before I figured it out. She is doing well now tho. I think these will go mid summer next year.
The pigs are looking good too, first ones go in next month too. Still have four of 21 left to sell yet, but have a month to go in one and the last three don't go in til the end of April.
I lost a couple pigs to worms because the first two wormers I bought didn't work. Not sure why, never used the first one but it mixed with water. The second one I used mixed in with the feed. I had had good luck with it in the past, so for a bit I didn't put the problem down to worms. Then in desperation I bought some injectable wormer and that took care of the problem. Then the dog decided he liked the taste of pork too and he got a couple. So I did buy some replacements. But lessons learned, so I guess it will all work out.
I will buy more pigs as these sell and I will keep my eye open for another steer or two that need topping off to sell this fall if I can find some. Been fun having them around, and with the mild winter has been easy to deal with.

Today's Featured Article - The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's). I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches. As most restorers, I have a number of war stories I can relate on a range of topics that may help other like minded and interested people. Perhaps my first p
