From the day they were born right up to this point, everything we've done has been to get the calves ready in preparation for this day. And all the work culminates on one day in the fall - weaning day.
Along with all our usual shenanigans, we pick up steak rub, start a generator, move cows (again), make a trip to town, drink some coffee, unload the feed we picked up in town, and cake the cows.
