Its a little warmer, but its Still freezing. I hope it will warm up soon, because I have a group of heat sychronized heifers to breed. We keep our heifers at another farm, and there we have lock -ups to catch the them. These are okay, but they're outside in the open, so it could be pretty cold.

My cousin Jenny has been staying with us this week. Shes going to college for nursing. She helped me feed calves. Then I told her we had to pregnancy check some cows. She hasn't been around the farm a whole lot, so I had her beleiving the cows peed on a stick. She was curious to see this. We went out to the barn and I found the first cow. I pulled a sleeve out of my pocket and pulled it up to my shoulder. Jenny was kinda starting to wonder now. I went up behind the cow and dove in. You should of saw the look on her face as I went in up to my shoulder. Out of 17 cows I checked, 15 were with calf. I told jenny she better be watching, because it was her turn tomorrow.
