I would like to invite both of them to any branding this weekend in Montana and tell them to stay six feet apart or shut it down because there are over 10 people there.
I've often been asked if I need any help during branding. I turn down almost all of it. Branding can be dangerous and you just can't take the chance of getting someone hurt. The cows are on edge and the calves are cute but strong and powerful too...
I get requests every year from people who want to help brand. My branding is different from the brandings you may have heard about. Ours is all about the work. Do we all eat afterwards? Yes. Then we have time to visit and feel good about another successful calf crop...
