I was out "bull-cookin' around" on the place many years ago, and noticed a new calf in the neighbor's field. It was raining, the calf looked cold, just standing there. It was a roan Shorthorn, and I raised Shorthorns, so I looked at mine to see if a calf had got through the fence. Counted noses, and everybody had a calf.
