FF Freedom’s Artist – dob 1/25/2012
In the middle of all the chaos and excitement going on while preparing for our two Cow/Calf pairs to arrive – Our intended Herd Sire – FF Freedom’s Artist – woke up this morning to yet – one more surprise full of confusion that he – unknowingly – will figure out with time.
We had a pretty good storm last night – enough to clear the air quite well.
I headed out to get photos of the two boys eating hay this morning – as they seem to have picked up on consuming much more over the past week.
We have a prevailing south wind that flows over our property from side to side. There was just a really nice – calm – cool breeze that passed over on occasion.
” What is that over yonder? “
And it caught Artist’s attention this morning – like none other since mid April of this year – when he arrived here.
I began shaking my head and grinning. ( Mom gets to catch another ‘first’! )
” Heyyyyyyyyyy!! “
And I got lucky!
He’s too young to even know they’re all the ‘Strictly Tall Dairy’ kind!
He was hollering back – every time he heard one of these girls – from all the way over there.
And he didn’t shut up for almost 2 hours!
Looks like we’re gonna have to adjust the Honey-Do list.
Neighbors says the fence is over 20 years old.
The fence dividing our place from our neighbor is gonna need to be replaced with the woven wire before I can feel safe enough about putting Artist over in that paddock again.
