Weather: More above average heat today and into next week.
Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in WG-10. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Supplement P+M+S: 4 + 2 + 2 No moves. Doctored one more calf-when does this end? How do we address this lingering herd immunity issue? Dana counted 34 Huns at the headquarters pond. I think the stockpiled cover on the ranch as we enter fall is the least amount I have observed for as long as I can remember.

Weather: Warming again.
Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in WG-10. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Supplement (P+M+S): 4 + 2 + 2 Broke into next split in WG-10 in the afternoon. Opened all of 10 for a possible 4-day split to allow folks time off for a long Labor Day weekend. Weather: Much cooler with westerly winds
Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in WG-9-10. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Bulls (22) LS-1 (15 acres) Supplement (P+M+S): 4 + 2 + 2 Broke into WG-10 down on the creek and we fenced off 68 acres and opened tank to the west. We decided to ship Charter cattle early next week due to short feed. Weather: Cold front moves in.
Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in WG-9. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Bulls (22) LS-1 (15 acres) Supplement (P+M+S): 7 + 2 + 1 Two splits for the cows. Surprised how quickly the feed is being used. I am leaning to moving Charter cows sooner off the ranch. Weather: Continued mild and warm yet prediction of change coming.

Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in WG-10-9. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Bulls (22) LS-1 (15 acres) Supplement (P+M+S): 7 + 2 + 2 Late afternoon I opened first strip in WG-9 (96). BLM P Dog town has probably doubled in size in last two years not unlike other dog towns on ranch-some serious management action required, but what? One plus is a burrowing owl sighting. BJ starts next and maybe last pipeline phase. Weather: Continued warm with evening thunder and lightning north of the ranch.
Where: Cows (215 + 130 2’S + 66= 415) in LS-14-WG-10. 415 X 1.6= 664 AD daily demand. Bulls (22) LS-1 (15 acres) Supplement (P+M+S): 7 + 2 + 2 We pushed all the cows into WL-10. Some of the custom grazed cattle want to return to water in LS-12 as they are not familiar with location of the tank in WG-10. Doctored one more calf-getting old and frustrating. Weather: Broke into the 90’s.

Bulls (22) LS-1 (15 acres) Supplement (P+M+S): 8 + 2 + 2 Cows move into LS-12 (county road) on way to WG-10, With hoppers and growing PD town the ground feels very tough. Snively peaches from Colorado are perfection to see, feel, and most of all to taste. We averaged 21 ADS/acre in the Big Wall Unit. Weather: More heat without the thunder.

Three new calves doctored with some roping help from Wade in the morning. Meadowlarks are beginning their late season singing as we get closer to the Fall Solstice. Appears to be more native cover moving into improved pasture dominated by intermediate wheatgrass and crested wheat. |
