Thanks for the talk through . I am so pleased that you use a cattle crush and don't do that barbaric roping and dragging of calves. Times have moved on and we are kinder to our livestock now.Your cows and calves look in fantastic condition and a credit to the family.

We appreciate the support! Believe it or not, the traditional wrastling is actually proven to be less stressful on the calves. Several agricultural studies from reputable universities have shown it to be better roping and wrastling from a rodear than using chutes and calf tables.

We do a form of branding, but not. We tattoo. Our registered cattle are also show animals and thus tattooing keeps the coat clean.

That makes sense. Assuming it takes significantly longer?
