Hope its ok to post here? Calving got off to an abrupt start yesterday morning. One of them calved in the mud, so calf was covered, wasn't supposed to be for another week (or so the calendar said anyway) Calf was washed down promptly and was very strong, in fact we walked both out the field very well. Little baby is doing well now, is still suckling mum for 3 days to drink all the colostrum, then she will be bottle reared A strapping young heifer she is too, out of an unproven milking bull, supposed to be excellent. Pictures to come a bit later. We have some more due in the next few days, so beady eyes all round!
