Dorothy presented us with a beautiful little heifer in the wee hours of the night. She is beautiful and mother and daughter are doing well.
Dorothy woke me at 2am mooing - I knew something was up - she never moos. I woke Brad up and we went out to find a beautiful little heifer. Brad had last checked her about midnight, so she was born sometime between midnight and 2am - a memorial day baby. We gave Dorothy a bucket of molasses water and a tube of CMPK Gel. We helped the calf nurse, we dipped her navel and put a goat blanket on her, she finally got the hang of it and nursed some, not as much as we would have liked, but she was standing.
Now we need to come up with a name. And while we are at it, we need to come up with a farm name too.
