The forgotten post

I can't believe I forgot to post these on Thursday . . .
Thursday was Ben and Jerry's moving up day.  They progressed from being my little baby bulls to being little steers and learning to be in a real pasture with other livestock! 
They went through, got their shots, castration and horns done and we dropped them in the feild with Hildy and the sheeps for a couple days before they were moved in with the weithers, Dwayne the ram(was it Dwayne?) and Speedy. 
They were a little shocked at this sight:
But after we let the boys loose, we loaded Hildy up and brought her in for her horns and shots.  Hildy was none too impressed with this idea.


But once the de-horning heals up, she'll have a gorgeous smooth head!  She'll be mucho prettier without them horns. 

The horses were happy to get their barn back


Which they promptly lost the next morning because Bahloo thought it would be fun to start rough-housing inside and kicking the wall(or horse) and I was in feeding the rabbits.  So I locked them back out of the barn for a few more days.  It won't kill them, just makes them upset.  I can't have them kicking through the wall into the rabbits.  But they had the barn for one day.  Once I re-fix a few things I'll open it back up again, but until then they can stand under the trees for their shade-cooler that way anyway.
