Processing Day

The truck is coming at 3 PM. You have 180 head in the yard, but this shift is a 40-head sprint. Vaccinate, tag, preg-check, treat, sort, and stay smooth enough that the whole crew does not watch you unravel.

What matters

Vaccinate and tag every head before you open a gate.
Preg-checking costs three seconds, but selling bred cows costs more.
Health problems belong in the hospital pen or the sell lane, not back on feed.
Complications will break your rhythm: a kick, a dry syringe, a rank calf, a twins surprise.
