Breaking It Down
Once we got the animals home it took us about a week to break everything down into freezable portions. The hard part was getting everything into one fridge. I never though two lambs and a calf would fit in a standard fridge but it did. For the lambs we first took off the back legs, the head and the shoulders and then deboned the whole mid (breast) section. We then cut the rib sections (tenderloin removed) and made double tomahawk chops. We took the tenderloin and scraps and rolled them up in the deboned breast. It turned out perfect.
Cow + Tractor = Farm
We attended a cousin's engagement party this afternoon (congratulations again Amanda & Pieter!). The family owns a semi-rural property, giving me a chance to grab a shot or two of one of their cows and the fabulous tractor.
Enjoy,

Taste of the Liverpool Plains
To celebrate and exhibit the unique productivity of Australia's premier food bowl, and to support the local farmers in their landmark battle with BHP and other companies interested in subsidence longwall mining in the Liverpool Plains area, locals and supporters held the inaugural Taste of the Liverpool Plains event at Caroona.
Cupcake decorations included a number of items representing the local agriculture: cows, pigs, chickens, cotton, corn, sunflowers, and the ever-present No Mines sign.
Calf fitted with prosthetic hind legs
A calf with only two legs would normally be sent straight to the slaughterhouse, but veterinarians in the United States have given a new lease on life to an unfortunate yearling.Meadow, an 11-month-old Black Angus has been fitted with a pair of prosthetic limbs after losing her back hooves to severe frostbite.
A 15-member team of doctors and students from Colorado State University carried out the surgery and rehabilitation to give Meadow a chance to walk again.
The prosthetic limbs have allowed Meadow to stand on her own two hooves again.Treated like a pet, the Dickinson family were happy to pay thousands for the procedure.Luke Burton pats Meadow as she adjusts to the new limbs.Tasmanian cow Theresa was fitted with one leg in 2007.Maulee, a border collie was fitted with a prosthetic paw after losing his leg.A prosthetic flipper helped this shy amputee tortoise to come out of his shell.
I wish I was working in a field that helped animals. I'd fail the subjects required to get the right qualifications, though. Sciences and stuff, yuck.
