Monday evening on the Stiles Farm, I helped AnMarie set out dove traps. We waited for about an hour before we went and checked them, but sadly, we didn’t have any luck trapping anything.
Tuesday afternoon, Ryan and I went to check on the bull that we separated from the herd. When we went to fill up his water tub, we noticed an opossum had fallen in and couldn’t get out. Ryan, who’s much braver than I, reached in and grabbed the opossum out of the water to ensure he didn’t drown.
Wednesday morning, Ryan, Jimmy, and I moved some of the heifers from the headquarters’ herd into the northwestern pasture. We moved them because they needed to be introduced to a bull, while the one’s we left at headquarters either had a calf or they were close to parturition. Taylor Burrell
