The perfect outcome for my friend Maggie Gordon a few days before the Riggit Galloway Cattle Society Summer Jamboree in Scotland

"So, saw this old lady (16) starting to calve last thing at night, 1 hour later, this wee man is up and about! Last calf of 2017 season a well marked black riggit Galloway off Two Mills bull. Bit of confusion about the parents in the morning but tucked up in the shed to make sure he got all the feeding he needed, last pic taken in the field... looking forward to Riggit AGM on Sunday... more so since we've bred our very first one!"

First marked bull calf by TwoMills Reiver's Boy, sold to Maggie as a weaned calf

To say I'm delighted for her is an understatement

Second photo is the sire a month or so before he left Suffolk
