Oooh my heart! ๐ฅบ๐ the first picture and the third picture, really just sold me! They are so precious! Do you have names for any of them?
Aug 25Reply

@irena_andrey They are so sweet! The third picture is my bottle boy, he had a rough start to life but currently the plan is to raise him for a possible herd bull replacement. We do name them lol, occasionally they end up named just by their tag numbers but for the most part they are all named. The newest ones aren't named yet but will get named as we get to know them and my bottle boy is Lucky but I call him Sweet Potato ๐

@lboyd623 Sweet potato! That is so cute! Hahah I love it. What happened with his birth? Was he born earlier this year in the spring?
Aug 26Reply

lboyd623
@irena_andrey Actually he was born in July from a momma that we had just recently purchased, her genetics and who she was bred with were important to add to our herd but since she was raised on our farm we didn't ensure she was supplied with all her proper minerals and it seems like she had a vitamin A deficiency so he was born almost blind among some other disabilities! We attempted to get the momma to take him for several weeks but eventually he just needed to be raised without her.

lboyd623
@irena_andrey He has recovered almost 100% and momma has joined the rest of our herd and should have no additional problems in the future with calves.
Aug 26Reply

lboyd623
@irena_andrey That should have said she wasn't born or raised on our farm! Our cows are given multiple minerals year round so she wouldn't have likely had a vitamin a deficiency had she been raised here ๐ We had 2 more calves born overnight so I'm a bit tired ๐ด

@lboyd623 Wow thatโs so crazy and amazing. I had no idea that there was so much that goes into that kind of work! I mean of course it should, but when you donโt think about it, it doesnโt really occur to you. How long have you been ranching for? And congratulations on the two more ๐๐ค

lboyd623
@irena_andrey Thanks, we had 1 more born late this morning ๐ It's been a busy few days around here! I did run your boots to the post office this morning though! I was raised in the cattle industry but left home almost 20 years ago (๐ณ)and went to college, started a family and then about 8 years ago my husband decided he wanted cows and here we are ๐
Totally worth it though! I truly love farming and my cows!
Aug 26Reply

irena_andrey
@lboyd623 Oh thank you for that! I canโt wait to get them ๐คช
Ye ahaha I can tell, sounds like a blessing! Thatโs so amazing!
Aug 26Reply

lboyd623
@irena_andrey I truly hope you love them and can make them work! I sent them in one of my Lucchese boot boxes. I don't typically keep boxes but held on to one so I figured I'd pass it along to you so even though it's not an Old Gringo box they fit perfectly and should arrive safely!
Aug 26Reply

irena_andrey
@lboyd623 I am confident that I can make it work! Theyโre too beautiful not to work ๐ even if it means inserts and thick socks, thatโs whatโs gonna have to happen ๐ perfect! Thank you! I really appreciate that, Iโm really excited to inbox them and try them on

lboyd623
@irena_andrey I am so thrilled you like them!! Hope you get to wear them soon! I was so on the fence selling these but I am so happy they went to someone who will enjoy them!

Hi there!! ๐โโ๏ธ
How are you and the boots getting along??
I'm taking pictures and am about to post some leopard print items and of course, thought of you!!
Aug 31Reply

vampirella_1
I have a vest that looks Great with the boots! I meant to put it in the box with the boots as a surprise for you, but couldn't find it! Let me know if you'd like it! ๐
Aug 31Reply

lboyd623
@vampirella_1 ๐ Ohhh more leopard!! I'll be checking them out!! I am in love with the boots, seriously they are awesome! Turns out the trim on your boots is identical to my Creations by Lama ponyhair pair so they are best buddies in my closet ๐ I've done so good cleaning out my closet so my favorites can truly shine, still have more to go but I'm enjoying being able to see my favorites at all times ๐

lboyd623
@vampirella_1 You are so sweet! I would love it but please don't go out of your way, you've been so kind already!
Aug 31Reply

vampirella_1
@lboyd623 Thats wonderful!! I knew the only way I could part with my babies was if I felt that their new owner would love them as much as I did!! And, They have you!!! ๐ฅฐ๐๐
obviously I didn't save your address, so if you'd like the vest I told you about, I'd love for you to have it!!!
Aug 31Reply

lboyd623
@vampirella_1 They are well loved and appreciated!! Truly couldn't find a pair of boots that are more "me" ๐ I'll message you on a bundle so my address isn't public ๐
Aug 31Reply

vampirella_1
@lboyd623 oh yeah!!!! Do not want that!!!
Aug 31Reply

irena_andrey
@lboyd623 Yes! Oh I love them so much. I almost wore them the very next morning, but I had to stop myself cause I had a meeting at work and I had to be in heels ๐ but I just absolutely love them theyโre safely tucked away on my boot shelf with all the rest of my cowboy boots. I canโt imagine my self ever wanted to get rid of them, but if I ever decide to Iโll give them right back to you ๐๐

@elliekeeter Thank you, they are so much fun to have around, being as cute as they are doesn't hurt either ๐ especially since they are all very ornery ๐คช

elliekeeter
@lboyd623 I really want a farm when I can when Iโm old enough. But Iโm allergic to animals, and their dander, and dogs that arenโt hypo allergenic. :P I wish I was not
Sep 29Reply

lboyd623
@elliekeeter We don't, we actually raise beef cattle
Sep 29Reply

elliekeeter
@lboyd623 so does that mean they are not females?
Sep 29Reply

lboyd623
@elliekeeter We have about 30 momma cows who give us babies every year. We keep 2 bulls that we put with our herd 2x a year so we have fall and spring calves. We raise them and usually sell our females to other farms as replacement heifers, some we keep for our own herd. The bulls are either raised as bulls and sold when they are older or they are castrated and raised as steers for eventual slaughter.
Sep 29Reply

lboyd623
@elliekeeter Farming is a wonderful thing! It's a very large commitment and harder work than most realize but incredibly rewarding as well! Maybe you wouldn't be allergic to farm animals ๐ค I'm honestly not sure if they produce the same type of dander like a dog or cats does

@lboyd623 Iโm allergic to horses, and feathers in pillows. I have very severe sensitivity

They are so adorable! And it's so heartwarming to see them getting to spend time with their mamas. How many cows do you have?
Feb 08Reply

lboyd623
@meekasmom Hi ๐ We have almost 60 total! It's a bit more than we usually keep but last year threw everything for a loop so we have held some for longer than normal! Once spring gets here we should drop back down to about 45, which is where I like to be! Too many becomes a lot more work than I can comfortably keep up with ๐

They look so well cared for. We have a lot of 'oreo' cows out in Maine.

@meekasmom oh I absolutely love the belted Galloways! We used to have a neighbor with a few but he sold them and I have always wanted to have 1 just to have ๐

@lboyd623 I had Longhorns in what I call my other life. Ex husband had roping steers and I made the heifer my own . She had 3 calves before we divorced. I was totally in love with those babies . ๐

@lboyd623 would love to see new pics :)
I put the boots in a bundle for you in case youโre interested ๐๐ฅฐ you have some beautiful things in your closet .

lboyd623
@porta962 oh I can't imagine not having my cows anymore! longhorns are absolutely beautiful, we have a neighbor who raises them and I love seeing all the colors of the new calves! he has a charlois bull which makes some beautiful babies!
Jun 26Reply

porta962
@lboyd623 well , I didnโt have a choice . They would have frowned on me having cows in the condo I moved into . Lol! There are many ranches out here with Longhorns. I get to see the babies when I go into town . And I can sit on โ Redneckโ:once a month if I want to . Heโs a huge steer that belongs to a man in Bandera. Iโll try to post a pic on my closet profile so you can see me on him :) heโs just beautiful.

lboyd623
@porta962 haha yeah I'm guessing most condo owners don't consider cows as pets ๐
๐คฃ I'd probably try it anyways lol just kidding but I can't imagine how hard it was having to give them up! And that's such a great picture, what a beauty!! One of my girls would probably let me ride her like a horse any time I wanted but I've never actually tried it!

@lboyd623 nos owner Wes rides him in the parades . I think he has another one too . He just brings Redneck to town .

Omgosh, โค๏ธ ur babies - those big glossy orbs for eyes, thick long lashes and licks for daysโฆ Iโd b the worst rancher bc theyโd all have names and become pets - not sure I could part with a single one! Haha, how does that work?
Sep 23Reply

lboyd623
@rclarke27 Seriously it is not easy! They all have names and they are spoiled rotten and treated as pets lol It is extremely important to me that they are raised knowing nothing but love and I remind myself that they live wonderful lives and have 1 bad day at the end! I can't always control where they go once we sell when we have too but honestly I do my best to ensure they are treated well and loved for what they provide!
Sep 23Reply

lboyd623
@rclarke27 We luckily sell registered cows so most buyers have a similar mindset. Maybe not quite as crazy as me ๐คช but it's a better way for me to try and make sure I know how they are raised after they leave here

hi, just saw you liked the farmhouse painted dish. I really cant discount it any further, its actually a very nice piece and artist is well known in CT area. look through my Closet though, you may find something to bundle with it to save. fyi we have a herd of 15 whiteface herferds. I love your herd! very nice looking.
Oct 19Reply

lboyd623
@brendavblue oh my goodness Herefords are my absolute favorite cows ever! I am down to one beloved red/white Hereford and 1 black/white face Hereford but I miss having a full pasture of those pretty white faces! A majority of our herd has moved to Murray Greys since my husband fell in love with the breed but I will always be a Hereford gal at heart โค I collect Hereford stuff since I can't ever get enough ๐
