Thankful- Tales from an exciting calving season!

November 27, 2019 / Lauren Langley / Leave a comment

With Thanksgiving coming up tomorrow, I cannot help but feel very thankful.  We have had a busy fall on the farm with new calves, good grass, rain, and a new hay shed (we lost ours to a bad storm this summer).  As I reflect on the past couple of months, I thought I would share … Continue reading Thankful- Tales from an exciting calving season!

This photo shows a caring and watchful bovine mom nursing her young calf.  I took this particular photo in October of 2011.  This cow and calf will always have a special place in my heart because this bull calf was born on my wedding day, 9.17.11.  The cow pictured was one of our first heifers … Continue reading In Honor of Mother’s Day

Can anyone else relate? I am so over hay feeding and winter already! Give me warmer temps and green grass already!! ☀️ 🌱 At least it’s Friday!!
I am convinced that the best days are those spent with family and cattle. Throw in some sunshine and decent temperatures on top of that and we are all smiles doing farm chores!
In the winter our cows receive all the hay they can eat, fresh water, minerals, and protein/energy supplements. This year we are feeding them two types of hay: fescue and peanut. North Carolina grows thousands of acres of peanuts each year which leaves a by-product of vines and leaves that can be made into dry hay. Peanut hay is a good source of fiber and protein making it a great choice. Quality can fluctuate year to year with weather and you have to watch out for too much soil being baled with the hay. Always buy from a reputable source and have the hay tested. We like feeding peanut hay because of the protein content and the cows really seem to enjoy it!
Happy New Year! 🎊

There is just something special about a good farm dog. Dory wasn’t even supposed to happen but 3-ish years ago she found us through a friend and she has been an amazing companion for my dad on the farm. Dad lost his original farm dog, Tipper this year which was tough on all of us. Thankfully, sweet Dory has been there when we needed her the most. She is the happiest dog ever and is always by your side ready to go!
