Welcome from Deep East Texas. There is Northeast Texas, Southeast Texas, the place in the middle is referred to as Deep East Texas. Lots of forest land, logging is a big industry here, mostly cattle, but small livestock is catching on. I raise Katahdin hair sheep on 25 acres and have 2 Anatolian Shepherds to guard them. Winters are generally mild, summers are preparation if you have been bad in life and expect to go to He//.

Fine, I'll put Enzed next to it.
Or will that be even more confusing?
That makes 2 places I've never heard of and have no clue. :lol: There's a community near me called Possum Trot, maybe I should put that on my avatar....... the opportunities for location are endless.

Enzed = NZ

They don’t say Zee like we do.

Took me a while to not be confused.

We have beef cattle, Angus mostly and one Speckled Park.
I love Speckle Parks I don't have one but my neighbor has one that escaped and got onto the road and it was really friendly.
I just like colored cattle better then the solid color cattle. I have 2 Line backs they are sisters and I have a bald faced heifer and every year I try to pick a bottle calf that has different colors instead of just plain brown or black. The solid colored cows sell better but I still like the colored cattle better.

The speckled parks were always geting into troubl, nearly all of them had autumn bornsbefore we sold all 16 of them:hit. I love angus! Couloured cattle are fun but haven't brought in much income for me.

So you say En Zee? Instead of En Zed? Add that to the faucet=tap favorite=favourite neighbor=neighbour mom=mum.

And boot=trunk (car storage area) ... or do NZ'ers have another name for that?

I'm in ENC (Eastern North Carolina), USA. I have bantams, gardens, outside cats, and just added a dog.

Welcome!
