Life on a small farm in Missouri raising gaited trail horses and black angus cattle. Contact us at: Crow's Nest Stables, 6901 County Road 3390, Peace Valley, MO 65788, phone: 417-277-5577 or 417-274-6197. We enjoy talking to horse lovers, so give us a "Caw" sometime! Our beef is hormone and anti-biotic free & grass fed so it has less fat content. Also, we usually have a good horse for sale, and if we don't have what you want, we'll try to help you find it!

#6's calf will hopefully solve the problem...
Top picture is of the long awaited calf belonging to poor #6. The calf arrived around 1 pm on Sunday & these pictures were taken around 6 pm. It's hard to see from this angle (bottom pic), but the calf seems to have solved the problem for all teats except the front left. I'm hoping it will take care of that one today!!! According to the feed store manager, this is not an uncommon thing, and calving usually solves it. I'm hoping he's right but plan to keep a close eye on her just in case.

More new calves!
#187 (bottom photo) calved Sunday morning followed by #213 (top photo) that afternoon. Both had calves on the small side, so thankfully no problems with delivery. I feel very blessed that there have been absolutely no calving problems so far this year & that all the calves are healthy & growing well.
