Been busy calving over this last week, kept facebook up to date but not got around to the new dexter board.
we have lots of calves coming 3 a day for the last 4 days, the bulls must have been busy!
Just to prove i am too soft, the pics are of my little beauty. a wee dexter heifer to one of my oldest cows. she is only slowly getting going. she uses a lamb bottle and i had to tube her at first with a lamb tube!
she kept moving out of the heat so she was dressed to keep her warm where ever she laid.

hope everyone else has lots of healthy calves

Hi Dom,

She is soooo cute in her little hat. :)

Just because she's small doesn't mean she won't catch up that's for sure, my little premmie Fatima is the biggest now! And the most spoilt. :wink:

Good luck with her.

Vicki
