Pics of new wagon and milk

Hello all! I thought I would be writing more in my blog but..there is only so much to say about milking a cow, I think. There is a lot of fluctuation in Abbey's production, I guess I thought it would be more predictable. One morning 2 gallons and that evening a couple of ounces! I am perplexed. Last night I got everything ready and went to the barn but after feeling her quarters decided not to milk because I just knew it would be another couple ouncer, that has happened twice. This morning I got a little over a gallon..hmmm. I will go out this evening and see how full she is.

Here are some pics of my milk, my new wagon and some scenery! God Bless!

Adam invited an orphan over for dinner AND breakfast before I caught on!

Tag is an orphaned calf that Al and I bottle raised and he has been hanging out with Abbey and Adam...UNTIL...Adam invited him to come to his "house"(or udder I should say!) to eat..lol! I took care of that real quick. I feel sad for Tag though..he is in with a bunch of cows that he just doesn't "fit in" with..he just stands by himself and bawls...awww. I just couldn't have him taking all my milk though..he is a PIG! I only got a couple of oz. the evening that he must have drained her dry. I was in shock! I am going to try to move Tag in with another group that he may fit in with better as there are a bunch of calves in that group. I am getting approximately 1 1/2 gallons of milk a day now, give or take. Some days Abbey is really good and others not so good..I wouldn't say wild by any means or really bad but just a little more fidgety than others.
Went to town yesterday for my first check-in/drug test at ASAP yesterday. All went well...I will say again, I am VERY thankful and grateful for this opportunity to work on getting my license! And very grateful to God for my amazing husband!

I have a lot to get to today so...ta ta and God bless!!
