Words to go by...

I was out this AM doing some herd health visits with a bovine vet from the clinic; preg checks, vaccines, ketone monitoring, drug drop off, etc. We pulled up to a Jersey farm and I introduced myself to the farmer and asked permission to palpate. The vet noticed a large truck pulling in behind and said, "is that feed or deadstock?" (the truck was a little different looking so it was hard to tell) and the farmer said, "I was told at a young age, if you have livestock, you also have deadstock". Then he looked at me and winked.


Good times.
