Stolen Kent

Post by black1jack »

Please share, our 3 black long legged dexters comprising of cow with steer calf at foot and her yearling heifer were stolen from our smallholding in Fawkham Kent. On 28th night to early 29th/10 , the theives drove across a field of sheep to a barn the cows were housed in. They put their halters on and loaded them into a waiting vehicle.

So sorry to hear about this, you must be so upset.
I have seen pics of these on facebook, it might be an idea to put their pics on here as well.
Good luck, I hope they are found soon!

Thank you. We have only had them a few months, but already have become very attached to them.

Ask local pubs if they have been offered any beef recently my husband saw signs of a sheep being gutted and skinned but no carcass .

I think you're right, sadly, but on the off chance that I'm wrong, could you give us the eartag numbers to look out for please?

So very sorry to hear about this - it must be devastating especially when the animals are so trusting. I hope you have a happy ending
