"So, what you going to do today?" askes the black heifer of the red steer...... While this is not an overly GREAT photo..haha... it does show a family heirloom... the feed trough was made by my Uncle Mervil Moffat who dairyed at El Reno. He made this when we moved to Yukon, and he made it in his shop on his farm, which was always very neat and orderly, and always had the latest neat tools in it, and Grandpa Moffat and I were watching him weld and cut and make it. It is an old hot water heater that was cut in two and legs welded to it. It was the latest NEAT idea in troughs for farmers who didn't have a lot of money to buy the store bought ones. We also have a square bale hay feeder at mom's that he built. He as a great man, and an awesome welder and could fix about anything. The two calves are going to be hamburger some day... and are on full feed!
