Winter Cattle Working

On the farm, we work our cattle three times a year; winter, spring, and summer.  "Working the cattle" involves giving vaccinations to the cows and calves, worming the cows and bigger calves, branding any new cows and bigger calves, putting ear tags in the ears of new cows and all calves (bull calves get blue tags, heifers get pink tags). We have a great group of friends who always help out and, although it's a half day of hard work, it's also a lot of fun!
This year we ordered custom made ear tags so we switched out the ear tag for every single cow in our herd (except our longhorns since we are planning on selling most of them). https://www.angusonline.org/Store/RFID/RFIDMain.aspx
And, for the first time, my sweet husband set up a propane heater for me to stay warm while I was working on the record keeping and filling up the syringes with the cattle vaccinations!
