January, February and March were extremely dry months at Boogalgopal and relief rain wasn’t received until the end of March when we were lucky enough to receive 70 mms of rain that went some way in lifting the pressure and work involved with very dry times.
Calves continued to look impressive however and the cows continued to look after their offspring as Brahman mothers can.
E.U. steers were mustered ,drafted and consigned to the Meatworks on a regular basis.
Early morning loading
Cows enjoyed their calves as weaning drew closer!
…and egrets made themselves at home with these breeders
as did this emu !!
Weaning muster was started in late April
It was hot and dusty in the red soil at the Top Yards.
Weaners were yarded for a week or so. This is a time we love to get closer to the calves and enjoy seeing the year’s progeny in one spot !
Philip and Zoe watch as another mob is taken back to the paddock
Commercial weaners are taken up to their respective new paddocks over the next few days.
…Young stud cattle enjoy a little longer at the home yards before heading to the weaner bull paddocks. A few misty mornings at this time of the year.
Young Prue enjoys a ride with Tex as they bring stud weaners over to the home yards.
Taking stud Charbray and Brahman bulls to their paddock to grow out.
Final Destination….and the bulls look happy…. !
and meanwhile, the sunsets were still putting on a glorious display !
