What GRRREAT pictures and what a wonderful way to spend the day with family:cowboy::cowboy:

The picture of the two little ones asleep on the pipe rail is photo contest material and should be an 8 X 10 on their parents' walls:)

I'm sure everyone is wore out, but what a great feeling at the end of the day!

The only thing that might have made that more fun if time would've allowed, would be to let the little ones engage in some team sorting with the mama cows and their calves:cowboy:

I really enjoyed the pictures - thanks for sharing:)

[Gypsy Rose]

Looks like lots of fun- but I bet it was hard work, too! Thanks for sharing the pics!

[Equine_Woman]

Are those all family? What a wonderful gathering!!! So glad someone brought the camera!! ;) Beautiful shots!!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing! I've never worked cows. I have worked mares and foals in a herd setting but not cows!!

[livaward]

Yup.....that is all family.....we usually have some others that come out and help and I was really surprised that no one else showed up! When we wormed, tagged, and castrated there was about 20 family and about 7 others.....that was too many people but hey we got the job done LOL.....
