The first calf of 2014 was born yesterday. "Miss Piggy" gave birth to a little girl (heifer). Mom is very protective of her calf and only allowed photos when I was on the other side of the fence. Once I got closer we were able to see the little one trot along right behind Mom as she walked to the other side of the herd.
Both the calf and Miss Piggy are healthy and doing well. We are hopeful that this will be the first of several more calves this year.
when we see new cow-letts we call them "cow pies" because thats what they look like from a distance! thanks for coming by my place and may i say that your icon pic of you holding the pumpkin is the HAPPIEST pic i've seen in a while!? what a great smile! and hang in there - this winter is about to break.

Congratulations on the birth of this year's first calf! Darling. Don't let her get too familiar with Clyde. No more escaping needed!
