We pull all the meat off the bones so there's nothing but bones left. Then the bones go into the chicken yard for them to pick off the bits we left.

Newyorkrita said:So do you know when your preferred short and solid type of cows go up for sale or is it just luck to find them? I thought short and solid was a description of body type till I read your explanation.


Short and solid is referring to their teeth. The animals are so old that their teeth are worn down flat. That's how you tell a cow's age.

Every week people bring S&S cows to sell at the barn. You just sit there and wait til they bring them out and then bid on the ones that the cowboys are ignoring. Big Grin
