Vet Check

First we took 10 calf pictures for registration purpose 

The we did our vet check, this cow is tall

So she was backed up for easy reaching 

Check a calf with a bulge, it seems to start draining so that’s good

 Last time out to the farm before mat leave

Farm tour

Yesterday was the Wellington farm tour, we we went to 2 farms

Lots of snow around the Bonds’ farm

We’ve been in their barn when they just arrived 

About 10 years ago, it looks a lot different now

 Clean and roomy

The next barn was from Koster

Close to Moorefield 

Lots of parts

I assume they had this open to show how it worked

They have tunnel ventilation, air quality was excellent 

The couple that lives here met in the DR on the beach

Winter puzzle

Made some puzzles , this one had letters on the back

Sure made it easier 

 

Lambs

This was a surprise 

This sheep was open when we used

CDIR’s but apparently was bred shortly after they came out

 It’s a white and a black lamb, both females 

Back on the trail

We parked the car at Guelph line

Walked no 1 side road

And Walkers Line, lots of road!!

Back entrance to mount Nemo

Climbing

A few steps 

Beautiful view 

We appreciate the facilities  

Gilling road and Blind line

 Glad to see the car

There was more snow then I anticipated, but this part of the trail was a good choice for the weather

Plow

 Yesterday snowing and blowing 

Today starts with sunshine 

Yes we still have snow

View in the basement 

Lots of old snow outside in layers

So it will take a while for it to disappear 

 

Hooftrimmer

 Thursday and Friday were hoof trim days 

Power outage

We had a branch on the wires

 It shorted out the fuse 

Freezing rain

The sound of ice in the trees

Looks pretty 

 

But it’s hard on the trees

Lots of ice
