Sloshy Slop!

Sexy legs hey? You only get legs like these when you’re sloshing through ankle deep muddy cattle yards like Anthony and I have been this week!

Mud-encrusted legs feel really weird when it’s dry, although I have heard that mud is good for the complexion … I wonder if that includes cattle poo and wee all mixed in?

Anyway, we were tagging our stud calves. As a registered Angus Stud we need to be able to identify the dam (mum) and sire (dad) of each calf.

Those yellow tags help with that as every animal has its own number that is recorded on a computer program.

I’ve written about this process in Red Dust so hopefully now you’ll be able to visualise it when you read about it!
