Wearing the Rope, Tip's Path to Becoming Halter-Broke

Our Charolais/Black Angus bull calf, Tip, will be wearing his halter for the next week or so. In doing so, he'll halter-break himself.

Tip has already learned to avoid stepping on the lead rope and, by early next week, we should be able to lead Tip, Daisy, and Tad back down to the lower pastures. There, they'll reunite with the Black Angus heifers, Libbey and Tove.

You may recall that Libbey had sprouted a case of bovine warts a few months ago. With the help of Banks Veterinary Service, we've been able to give those warts the boot. YAHOO!
