 Notice that this cow has 2 calves, they aren't twins but this cow nurses them both. The smaller one that is nursing in the pic was orphaned this summer when mother came down with anaplasmosis. Just one of natures wonders. |

| BIL had about 3 Holsteins that would accept any calf. He bought 4 baby calves when one would come fresh, she'd feed all 4, then 2 more when the first bunch was weaned. Cheap way to raise calves. But the guy who furnished both the cows and the calves quit dairying, so that was the end of that. |

| The most valuable cow in my family's dairy herd way back when was a scruffy-looking mixed-breed nurse cow that would take any calf you put on her. |

| Lucky is right! Mine usually go the other way. They don"t take their own calf. |

| | A cow like that gets to stay in my herd until I bury her. Well, I've actually only had one like that, but I still miss her. All the time I've spent on stupid cows over the years getting them to adopt THEIR OWN DARN CALF and that kind of attitude does not go unappreciated. |
