We have just bought a dexter cow in calf and a 4 month old heifer,not her calf.
They are not very well handled so are not very tame. we plan to make a holding yard and hand feed them for a time.As we have only had experience with steers, this is all new to us.They are being delivered next week, what size yard will they need ?,can we keep them in the yard untill they settle down, or do they need to only come in to feed? and any other good advice will be gladly received.
