The calves are growing, getting bigger everyday!  They are still that really odd color.  I had wondered if they would change to something darker, but they haven’t.

We traded out Big Boy for Loud.  Big Boy was having a hay-day, he kept going through all the fences to get to the neighbors cows and becoming very combative when we tried to run him back over.  At one ton, if you want something, you get it.

So Big Boy went to the bull pen, where he is safe, the neighboring cows are safe, and Terry and I are safe.  And Loud came back with us to experience the rest of the summer on pasture (instead of the bull pen).

Loud is named Loud because he TALKS all the time.  It is kind of scary if you don’t understand that he is just really social and likes to communicate.  He will be here until sometime after Labor Day, when he and the calves will be removed so the moms can concentrate on themselves.
