I decided that this was the weekend I had to get everyone adjusted for kidding. I put my gate across the front of the barn with the whole herd on the back side so I could do my adjustments.
The herd stuck on the other side when they came back up from pasture.

I now have the two bucks up north.
Xerxes
They are getting along. Xerxes is a pretty nice guy when he’s not in rut. Frodo is still properly petrified respectful.

I also put the fence through the middle of the barnyard. I left Antigone on that side even though she isn’t due until April. I didn’t want her to have to fight her way back into the herd when she’s that far along in her pregnancy.
Antigone is due next month.
I also added Penelope who had been up with Frodo. She is due next week.

Victoria came over by the cattle tank, so I opened that and let her in. I’ll let both her and Dolly on this side so I can keep giving them extra feed.

I let Caroline out. She was not eating well in the garage, and I hoped that getting out would give her a mood boost. She will stay on the side with the moms so I can still give her extra care.
Caroline will stay on this side so I can give her extra care.
Because I opened the door for Caroline to go out, it also means that Tux is out.
Tux came out; I put him in; we’ll keep bouncing back and forth for a while.
He might be underfoot outside.
That was a pretty good morning’s work, and all I had left to do was move the first of the spring break moms and Dolly over there.
