Lazy SP Ranch

Everyone knows I share both the good…and the bad. Unfortunately, today was the bad. Some of you may have met Quinn. She was our little Charlois heifer calf that we’d been working with for almost a month now. She came to us with a cough, desperately in need of a good source of food, and lots of love. We started her on antibiotics, probios, vitamin b, wormed her, and started giving her milk, grass hay, calf starter, and unlimited water. She improved and was putting weight on and her cough started going away. However, in the last 24 hours, she took a turn for the worst and we just couldn’t bring her back.

We had to let her go 💔

There’s a saying that when you have livestock, you have dead-stock. But sometimes, you have to realize when to turn the livestock into dead-stock.

This is the hardest part of my job, when you know you just can’t save them all.

I’m so sorry Quinn, I wish I could’ve done more for you 🥺
