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
