Bull Update!
As you know Charles sold BO! … He’s probably hamburgers by now! :( Crude but true!
...Unless I can convince myself that BO was bought at the auction to be head bull of a herd again! YEAH!! I like that! :)
‘Midnight’, the good looking, young, Black Angus bull that Charles had made the deal on…well it didn’t work out! The guy went back on his agreement!
(Not too cool, guy!)
SOOO- that leaves Charles with just Bubba to be THE BULL on this little farm-with a herd of about 20 cows! Needless to say-there’s bound to be a lull in our new calves…nine months from now.
(Hopefully, Bo has left us a few babies in the making to remember him by)
Bubba has been turned into the pasture with all the cows but he seems a little overwhelmed with the task at hand! He’s still young-just about 1 year old-and seems intimidated by those cows. Most are much bigger than he - and then there are those mean looking horns on Janet, Frances and Whoopi!
We hope, Bubba will grow into his responsibilities.
Right now he’s just not 'up to it!’ :)
This is Bubba and Carmel. He is very small compared to the cows!
The cow with the BIG horns is Janet!

This is a joke I got in an Email today from a niece! It fits well in this farm story...
A blonde Texan city girl, marries a Texas rancher.
One morning, on his way out to check on the cows the rancher says to Amy: "The artificial insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today. I drove a nail into the two-by-four just above the cow's stall in the barn. You show him where the cow is when he gets here, okay?"?? So the rancher leaves for the fields.
After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door. Amy takes him down the barn. They walk along a long row of cows and when she sees the nail, she tells him: "This is the one..... right here."
Terribly impressed by what he seemed to think just might be another ditzy blonde, the man asks, "Tell me little lady, how did you know this is the cow to be bred?"
"That's simple. By the nail over its stall," Amy explains very confidently.
Then the man asks, "What's the nail for?"
She turns to walk away, and with complete confidence, says: "I guess it's to hang your pants on....."

ReplyDeleteJanet is really not mean-unless you're another cow and you happen to be standing between her and the bit of hay she has her eye on!

Hi June ~ I loved the photos in the previous post. Joke was funny and that
ReplyDeletebull looks like he has an uphill job with being so young and smaller than
the cows. Thanks for your comments. I liked My Road too. Take care, Love, Merle.
Hey June -- you know i can't resist the cows -- I've been getting beanie cows from ebay (again). Tipsy arrived from Boston last week and was VERY upset about the hamburger buns on the counter. I told her we eat turkey burgers. I am not telling her about your Bo! I guess maybe these aren't pets -- so its okay if they leave home?
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie,
ReplyDeleteWe can't know Bo's fate for sure. Let's think good thoughts and assume he found a new home with his own herd of ladies again! ;)

I remember you liked cows-and frogs...
LOL-I hope not lizards...as I had some Horror stories of lizards on this blog site!! hahaha

Hi Merle,
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming.
Hopefully, Bubba will work out -in time. Meanwhile, tho, we are not getting any calves being started! :)
I sometimes wish Charles would give all this up- It's a lot of work for him!
