1/2 🧵 Bitter | Sweet. (That’s if I may call it that).
This kid here was taking a plunge to cool off with friends when he was snatched by a Crocodile. Here he is pinned to the edge while asking the nearby elders to help him but their experience with crocs would come in very
There is a lot happening in the Agricultural sector in Botswana. With all this attention to detail and facilitation of farmer events and sector activities, we can only hope the results to be born of these efforts are soon to be realized and will be long term. Well done..!
My kind of jingles.! Grabbed a stool, went and sat there right in the middle of their yard and just absorbed their gentleness while one of my guys spray dipped the sheep and goats. Yep, the tick season is in full swing now and we have to be on top of it
Poor nanny being accosted by her twins just as she arrives home from the pastures. Stood there being head butted for more milk and they wouldn’t let her go until they were well fed first. 🫣😂😅😂🤣😘 Goats make great mothers only after their first.
I have had sheep and kept sheep for a few years now and I need to be upfront and honest on this one 👆🏾here. What type of patchwork is it..? First time I see this combo..!? My guys say it’s color blocking..! 🤣🫣🧐👊🏾
I currently have two bull being prepped together in an enclosure. Dominance is a sight to see live. When they at rest & the dominant one fixes to rise, the subservient one rises quicker to get out of the way. I guess hierarchy has been established & there is no argument here.
The legend is laid to rest. Rre. Basimanyana Peter Masire is one of if not the biggest contributor to Botswana’s cattle industry spanning back decades including being the pioneer of Embryo Transfer in Botswana & introduced some of the best Brahman genetics to Batswana.
Rre. Masire is the one who introduced the @JDH Brahmans jdhudgins.com/ to Botswana some 50 or so years ago (if my memory serves me right). My wife & once spent a lovely afternoon with his family & he brought out all the recipes. Talked AI, ET, genetics till late evening
How they grow so quick. One minute you are welcoming them out the oven & the next minute he is such a big boy with a full blood sibling well on the way. He is KKA Renegade 7801/26. His docility at 10/10, seriously off the charts. Very confident youngster showing great potential.!
One would think I am having a lazy day watching this auction online but for me it’s not just productive but therapeutic.
This is the breeders promo video. Shear encapsulation of beauty and perfection embodied in these animals..!

A LIFE WELL LIVED, A LEGACY FOREVER.
He was a great Man, humorous, humble, & forever wanting to share & impart real knowledge. He knew how to also listen & never to appear as the one who knew it all. A Father worthy of RESPECT. He is “Bonya Mabogo”. May His Soul Rest Eternally.

Today Botswana lost a true son of this soil we call home, a Master Farmer of note & an inspiration to all of us up & coming pedigree / commercial farmers. We have lost a true Legend & Father to us all. Today we bid fare-thee-well to a very knowledgeable & humble cattleman.!
This is Setswana language at its best and am loving it. The cultural video is just icing on the cake. Serurubele o a boka neh..!
