Weaning the Calves

I can't get this thing to act right so we get blue writing and it is underlined. Yesterday we separated the calves from the cows. Here is how we do it.  Sadie and Riika have to go in the trailer otherwise they chase the cows.
                We build a chute out of vehicles and run the cows through.
                           People are placed at the gaps armed with pitchforks, shovels etc.


Then we run them through. Here are some videos.

    Haha, looks like Stuffy had fun driving all those things! I was almost angry realizing that the best animal on the farm hadn't made an appearance on your blog but I quickly recovered since I knew you're just saving best for last. And there she is!!! :D Cute pic of the nosy dogs!

    P.S. I still think Sadie Anne-Marie Clarabel Pooch deserves her own special post.
