New Calf

rusty6 · Mar 17, 2020

New calf on the hobby farm here. Born early last Thursday morning. Not super cold but in the teens with a cold Northwester blowing out in the open so I was glad it happened in the cattle shelter. My back is still recovering from wrestling enough corral panels in place to confine the cow and calf for a few days while they get to know each other without the rest of the herd bothering them. Interesting coloured calf from a red bull and a black cow.

Heifer looks more Guernsey than Angus laying in the bedding at the end of video.

Nice looking pair, she'll have no trouble picking out her young'un from the herd!

Shes a heifer. I let both cow and calf out to freedom this morning as it was a quiet morning with temps in the teens. There was quite a bit of running around and they have disappeared into the trees with the rest so hopefully all is well.

I saw nuts but after all the heifer comments I looked
again and it was just a shadow . Seems like a
peaceful cow to
