Branding

Well Dustin came home with some cows yesterday, so we branded them today.  Ran them through the squeeze chute and then drove them up through the rock pit field to the pasture closer to our house.  We branded all 22 of them.  Got them all through the chute without anyone getting run over or hurt, or any of them getting hurt.  These cows were funny though, not the typical range cow that wants to run from you.  Very friendly.  This was great when we were working them in the corrals, but not when we were trying to drive them.  I don't know if they had ever been driven.  They only climbed over one fence.  Fortunately into another pasture we own and not the neighbors corn field!  We had some good friends help us and we all had fun.
