Keeping the Oxen in line

IMG 20241029 WA0015

All our readers know our passion at Sandstone for our Oxen and we have been breeding more of these Afrikaner cattle over the last months. In spanning them for haulage duties is not always that easy and  recently we had to bring together the six head that have proved very troublesome and disobedient when in spanned.

They were in spanned to one of our farm wagons and spent the day moving around picking up various loads.  These six head are now a much quieter and less troublesome bunch after some intensive training by our Livestock Manager, Bianca Van Rooyen. Enjoy the gallery and the short video and the magnificent Sandstone scenery.
