That’s Annabelle, who was an orphan last year and spent months inside the three acres surrounding the historic Butler-Cape House with the Butlers.

Owner Larry Butler gives Annabelle the treasured 74 brand. During our roundups, ranch cattle are wormed, vaccinated, castrated and branded as needed. It’s a unique opportunity for cowboys to practice their 1880’s skills and guests to see them in action and understand why they have become so important to cowboys and ranch operations for more than 100 years
