Jim and Rhonda,
We just wanted to tell you how much fun the kids have watching and
petting the baby cows. They really are a joy and so gentle we had no idea
they would be this unique. Hope you come and see the babies when they have
grown up a little. (My husband has spoiled them so much I think they have
gained 100 pounds sense we got them). Thanks again for enlightening us
about Dexters.

Honey Creek Dexters,
We picked up our beef in the little town you sent us to last weekend. We
didnt think there were any real Mom and Pop butcher shops any more. That
place was amazing. We just tonight had our first steaks, T-Bones done
medium well WOW, where have you been hiding this stuff. I told my wife I
want it again tomorrow. Please keep us another « for about 6 months from
now. It is without a doubt the best steak I have ever had.

Hey Jim,
Just a short note to let you know that bull is doing fine. We put him in
a paddock for 3 days after the trailer ride and fed him hay let him get
nose to nose with the girls through the fence he was settled down in about
an hour or so, he didnt even seem to care about 5 hours in traffic hes a
very calm animal for a bull.
Well we turned him out on Wednesday and he went right to work. I think a
few cows are cycling now and the rest should come on this month. Ill let
you know how the calves turn out.

Jim,
I thought Id let you know you were right I put that bull on my heifers
and didnt have to pull a single calf. That is the first time in 14 years I
didnt have to pull at least 2 or 3. Birth weights were about 70 lbs. Most
calved without me even knowing. He covered 19 out of 20 heifers and thats
a better rate than I got last year with that high dollar angus and I didnt
lose any cows in the process. I lost 2 last year. Im going to keep him he
sure dont eat as much as one of my bulls and I dont have to worry about
going to the hospital every time I have to do the vet work.

Dear Honey Creek Dexters,
We wanted you kind folks to know that we just took our first steer in to
be packaged. We took our time and the cow and bull did all of the work. We
milked a gallon a day from the cow and she still gave us a nice steer, do
you think you will have another cow for sale this year? How long will this
bull be OK? If you have another cow for sale we would sure like to have
her.
