Good to see some good farming news.

Fair play to the cows to calf by herself and that's a fine calf too.

I say she has a bit of compensatory growth in her. If she has enough feed she do 10kgs+/week until after Christmas. I wonder if her calving date will slip next year by much.

This explains the expression milking off her back.

She had been reported as missing, presumed dead. It takes a vet to sign them off as alive anyway. Greysides may be the one to ask!
