| Where's Little Darlin? There she is, hiding behind a tree in the front yard! |
 |
| After milking one morning this week, Darlin refused to follow K7 to the corral, but instead she browsed the yard. |
 |
| I helped him get her back with her baby Forsella. |
 |
| And Heidi's baby girl. We currently keep both Mom's and babies in the corral to make it easier for milking. Darlin spends the night in the chicken paddock and is milked in the morning. After returning her to the corral, we move Heidi into the chicken paddock where she remains until K8 milks her by hand in late afternoon. I am paying K8 to train Heidi as a dairy cow. We hope to start using the milk machine on her in a week or two. |
 |
| It also helps both Moms to have their daughters in the corral which is next to the chicken paddock. We need to handle these little girls and get them used to humans. |
 |
| They are very curious animals and explored their new loafing shed. |
 |
| "Forsella" is a beautiful calf. She is 3/4 Dexter and the rest Jersey with a tiny fraction of Milking Short Horn. She will make a great family dairy cow for someone. |
Forsella is a pretty calf. I love the red coat she has. The front yard makes good milk, mmmmm!
ReplyDeleteI love those ducks! So, the color red seems to be a choice favorite on the Wanch. Could it have anything to do with a college football team? Red roof, red cedar siding, red barn, red laofing shed, red cows.
