Gobble Holler Ranch

Gobble Holler Ranch Cow/Calf operation in the Red River valley. Charolais mainly but we have Angus crosses too.

We ranch, we grow tomatoes and other veggies in our garden in the spring and summer.

Rocky and I were able to pull my F250 out of the icy area and I was able to get it home. All of the cows and calves were there cheering us on. I'm going to try and get to the post office today but I am first waiting for Ian to get back on his Mule. he went across yesterday and gave the cows some cubes so we're going to do it again today. It's supposed to get to 43 by noon so it's slowly getting better.

Finally got across the road and took a bale of hay across for them. They are ok but haven't got much water since the ponds are all frozen., Our neighbor Rocky Gates pulled my Toyota truck out of the snow and we got it back home but I had to leave the feed truck in place since I couldn't get the hay to come off.

Our main breed from 3 years ago is Red Angus. We'll be down to two white Charolais cows later this year. The Red Angus are easier to work with. and quite a few of the Charolais cows are getting old and will probably produce one or two more calves. The two that I'm keeping are 4 and 5 years old. If they live long enough i could get at least 8 more calves from them.

I'm hoping to get the cows and calves across the road to the west pasture tomorrow. I won't know if it will happen until a few minutes before it happens. Such is cows.

Just finished working cows and calves. Vaccines and worming for the calves as well as fly treatment, and s*x changes for the male calves. Had a Veterinarian help us this time and got the cows wormed and Vaxxed for lepto. I'm now on track to change pastures next week and get them back on our side of the road where the house is and where they will have a better selection of grass.
Next time I do this kind of thing I hope it's in a cooler month than June. 88 may not seem hot but when you are messing with critters that weigh a half ton it can get pretty sweaty,

Lots of Gobble Holler calves right now. 20 if my count is correct. I do need to wean a few of them but I'm going to hold onto them for awhile and sell them when the grass gets brown again. At present they are putting on weight without my having to feed them but once a week.

Managed to get a bale into the west pasture without getting stuck. Got to take some hay to the yearlings in the barn pen. Feeding when you've had a bunch of rain in a three day period can be a bit tricky and a big pain in the butt.

11 grass puppies that seem to have a desire to always have a full belly.
I'll be keeping a couple of these for the replacements of two older cows that I'll be selling soon.
