Title: Go, wee Storm
Post by: Rosemary on October 25, 2013, 04:52:37 pm

Our two cows and our heifer are all in calf! And it looks like Storm caught them all very soon after he was turned out on 12th August.

Our vet uses an ultrasound so we saw the skulls, spines, legs and the hearts beating.

We are SO delighted. So even though Storm's a bit of a short ar$e, he's got it where it counts. Unlike Charlie, who had his balls off today. And Bonny and Charlie had bloods taken for their BVD test.

But three more Shetland calves due mid - late May. So  :excited:

And to think you thought he might be too short to reach - where's there's a will there's a way  ;) :roflanim:

Hope Charlie's not too shell shocked  :fc:
