New LGD Added to the Barnyard

This past week, on Tuesday, March 13 we got a new LGD (Livestock Guard Dog).  His name is Caution and he is six weeks old (he was born January 28, 2018).  We are getting him used to the animals and the farm.  Caution is part Great Pyrenees and part Akbash.  In the picture it looks like Danger doesn't know what to think about him, but he really loves him.  Danger watches out for him like he does the sheep and lambs.  Hopefully Danger can train him to be as good a guard dog as Danger is.

Here Caution is with Mr. T (one of the bottle lambs).  Caution is learning the ropes.

I'm anxious to see if he grows up to be as big as Danger is.  Right now he has more energy than Danger did as a puppy.  I hope he settles down some (the sheep don't like high energy).

This is Danger at 3+ months (he was born in February 2017 - not exactly sure when).  We got him in April of 2017.  This picture was taken May 2017.

New Edition To Our Farm

Captain's first day in the Buckler Barnyard.  We are so excited to add this beautiful Red Hereford bull to our farm.  In a month or so (we're giving him time to get used to our farm) he will be introduced to our Angus cows and about a year from then we should have some very sweet Black Baldie baby calves running around.

Some of our calves born not long ago (they are from a Blonde bull).  We sold the sire to these calves not too long ago and that's the reason we purchased Captain.
