Very sorry to show signs of anger on this site, but I am extremely unhappy to be asked to comment on a picture which is then removed and another put in its place. I take a lot of time and effort to try to reply honestly and as correctly as I can to posts on this site. I will not bother doing so if anyone switches the information be it word or picture which I and others are responding to.

Duncan
I don't suppose Dominic deliberately chose to annoy you; I think therefore only one angry face was warranted.

I'm also sorry to see your anger Duncan , but I put 2 totally different pictures on the forum last night , of 2 different calves.
It was your comment of

that made me decide to remove the second picture and leave the first picture.Seeing as these are two different calves I didn't see the problem.I didn't like to think that you thought there might be something wrong with my calf's mouth and yet weren't going to tell me, thus I removed the second picture.
The picture that is still on was the first one that I put up so I have NOT removed a picture and put another in it's place I have simply removed the picture of the calf that you think has a strange mouth.
No information has been switched.
Duncan ,your knowledge and experience is highly regarded I'm sure and for what it's worth I think it would be a shame if, you didn't bother anymore.
As for me though , I'll just leave you all to it.
Life's too short for all this anger , as I'm sure my aunt will agree.Her husband suddenly died yesterday just four days after she buried her mother.

That would be a bit too much to bear. She will need a lot of loving support.
Nevertheless, the calf is still black, and the fact that the eyes look a bit pale is probably due to the angle of the photo. The calf is too brown, and not enough gold, to end up as a dun.
The cow has a lot of colour in her coat. Is she moulting?
