Did you miss the 16" of snow in January that was followed by 5-6 days straight of negative high temps? Food is covered deep and body heat loss was rapid. That was rough on the herd and widespread

Little brother to yours. If I rotate it, there is a little icicle effect that might develop into a drop time in future years

Would like to see him next year, presumably a 1.5 year old
