Yes, Secret's new buddy will be a male. Please notice that I said we will make him a steer. That means he will be neutered. And we really will turn him into hamburger, meat loaf, and other good stuff at some time after Secret has a baby. Secret won't mind at that point. She'll have her baby for company.
No, we won't have a problem eating an animal we've raised. We've done it many times.
Just call me Hard-hearted Mosie.

I remember the pigs you guys had (for dinner...lol). Any more new piglets on the horizon?! Ryan always liked seeing them...

So you won't make him a steer until Secret has her baby? Is that right? Or will you get her together with another male somewhere?

I'm used to this with my other country bumpkin friend, Celeste, down in Georgia so, you ain't tellin' me what I don't already know. :p! LOL!
ReplyDeleteYum! Meatloaf! (tongue out, drooling commencing)
Not hard-hearted, just practical! Linda
ReplyDeleteI know that your country life seems strange to many be even this city slicker knew what a steer was. Being on a farm is a wonderful life and I do thank you for sharing with us ! 'On Ya' - ma
ReplyDeleteOkay.. so, you aren't going to neuter him until after Secret get's pregnant, right?? Well, like most sperm donors.. he has served his purpose.. so, I say.. fire up the BBQ!! hee
ReplyDeleteOh.. just call me a hard hearted City Girl!!

Oh yeah - and since it's been a while since I commented under this nick, it's me, Melanie. :)
ReplyDeleteMosie, I figured that was the case as soon as you told us his name... :D
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, fresh good beef is fresh good beef.
One of the 1st commissions I got when I started selling real estate was a cow in lieu of a cash commission. She went on to have 3 bull calves (turned into steers, then freezer meat) before she had a heifer. Best commission I ever got! ( I also took a 1 yr old above ground pool in lieu of commission, 2nd best commission !)
ReplyDeletehard-headed Mosie, hahaha
ReplyDeleteIve raised a steer before and they are YUMMY!
I am not partial to bovines.......but I like to eat 'em
That would be awesome to have fresh hamburger and a friend for Secret.

Your Meatloaf sounds like my Juicy! The kids named him Juicy, but I thought it was appropriate since his entire purpose in life was to grow up, get fat, and become a nice juicy steak for me! lol
