Awwww...how sweet!!! Thought we'd see her drink but glad to see her up and about!!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYay!!! Another heifer!! More replacements for your herd! If you have an excessive number of heifers born, do you also sell those like you do the bulls/steers? Do they sell for the same money? You can tell, we've only had a couple of steers at the farm since I moved there and they were destined for the freezer. My hubby's grandfather ran cattle many years ago, but he died when my husband was still in school.
ReplyDeleteWe choose the best heifers to keep as replacement cows. The rest of the herd is shipped out in late July. Sometimes we keep a few of them, sometimes we keep a lot of them.

Calves! Other than everything else you post (haha), I love seeing the new calves the most. Born in the rain.. sigh... We still have 4 feet of snow in the Yukon until May. I want to run around your grassy meadows. lol
