What's Up on the Farm

Cattle can be like children.  They like to play with things they are not suppose to touch.  When the temperatures where above freezing we still had the automatic shut off on the water tanks.  Some cattle can find ways to disconnect the hose and then we have a water mess to clean up.  This happened twice in the last month.

Now it is cold enough that the tank heaters have been put in to keep the water tanks from freezing.  Now some of the cattle are finding a way to pull them out.  Lucky it is not cold enough to freeze completely but they did have a nice layer of ice on top.
