Last week was rather busy on the farm. The main herd of cattle was sorted, pulling off calves ready for weaning, some cull cows, and the bulls. Other than some heifers selected as replacements, all were shipped to the local auction to sell. They were picked up at the hatchery in the middle of the week and are doing well thus far. There are a dozen of assorted breeds that will be layers when they are grown, all heavy breed brown egg layers. There are also ten Cornish Rocks (meat birds).
The chicks have arrived!
