Moving Cows
Posted on 13. Oct, 2009 by Kate in Farm & Family
Nate and Lisle saddle the horses to go find the cows.
We moved some cows from one pasture to another on Saturday. Apparently, our cows were feeling a bit social and broke through the fence to mingle with the neighbor’s cows. Once all the cows were rounded up, there was a bit of sorting to do before loading the trailer. I forgot my camera, but made use of my husband’s cell phone so you can see the separating process accomplished by my husband, brother in-law (Matt), and father in-law. No rodeos this time around. Everything went pretty smoothly.
At the end of the video Nate and Matt start moving panels in to create a chute to load the cattle into the trailer.
Matt, Nate, and the boys watch Grandpa drive away with a load of cows.

I am the mother of five learning to live in the country surrounded by in-laws. I've been married to the amazing Nate Palmer for 15 years; he is teaching me how to be a farm girl in between chasing children, cooking dinner, and doing laundry. In my spare time (okay--time I try really hard to set aside), I like to write.

Oh the great cattle drive for the fall. My kids loved it in the summer. They are in bed I will have to show them the pics. Good fun work. What all kids should have.
