    Cow and calf happy and healthy after giving us a fright. I couldn't give a hoot if I'd been in my bikini when he arrived!

    He wouldn't miss another calving if he got the bikini treatment

    I remember my Uncle driving through up O'Connel Street in Dublin in a big diesel Volvo whose damaged exhaust was louder than a jet aircraft. Thankfully the car was so big I could hide in the back from such a mortifying experience.

    Yip, doesn't need to work until the end of May though. Hopefully he'll be alright now, having a bad run the last fortnight. Meeting the vet in a half hour to get shots for him.

    Sounds like it'll have to join the que.

    What would cause him to do that?

    Antibiotics don't affect a ram, it's the increase in his temperature caused by an infection that can render him temporarily infertile AFAIK.
