1st Timer Here

I am new here, and am introducing myself as PeteZahalia. I am a dairy farmer in the U.S.A. I have my own farm rather than it being a mega-corporate-dairy. I, along with my Pop and adult children, have continued this family farm since my Grandfather started it in 1928. I am busy most all of the time, but do like discussing topics of interest, when I am not busy with the farm and the herd. Thanks for allowing me to become a part of this community.

Welcome Pete! And good of you to take time from your
extra busy day in agriculture to stop by. The herd lets
you sleep occasionally-- but if you've got enough time to
do us as well they must be pretty well-trained. Cheers!

Welcome from a Georgia country boy....
Lived about 40 years in Georgia dairy land.

Welcome aboard the crazy train.
Have your ticket and tin-foil hat ready as we're about to get under way.

I think Butcherguy may be a "special" farmer as he knows how to milk cattle from their heads?!?!?!?
