Hauling Cows

With three pairs branded and strong, we decided to haul them to pasture. No better place for cattle to flourish than with green grass and fresh water. 

Before we hauled them up, though, we had one more shot to give them. Devlin and Clint went in to make the catch. 

Eventually we reverted to the rope to finish the job. 

Good catch by both. 

Then we jumped everything in the stock trailer. Cows first, then calves.

And took them up to the spring pasture and turned them loose. Bad scenario to deal with. We let the calves out first and they hit the ground running. We had to chase the moms to catch up. If not... non-mothered up calves are not fun to chase around the country. 

Thanks be to God, all got settled.

Looks good. Should be a good pasture for them to roam. And a good pasture for us to saddle up and check on. Win win. Hopefully, we'll get some rain and keep the green growing. Regardless, this spring pasture will keep these pairs in good shape until summer rolls around. Let's ranch.
