Granny's gone and done it again

On fb everyone thinks they’re big enough to be weaned.

I honestly thought that when I seen them. They look about the same size as mine, maybe a tad bigger. Keep them hydrated. The doe may be fine now but could quickly progress.

How old are they?

No clue and no way to tell. They’re 13lbs, that’s the best info I have.

I did find out that the calf is a angus/Hereford like alley guessed, and he was a twin but the mama wouldn’t take him. He finally took his bottle without any wrestling, and it was magical. :

I told the staff his name is Sir Loin.

I was thinking hid proportions looked more like a meat cow. We had Herefords. They would let us sit on them when they were eating. One of them got preggy when the range cows up behind our place mashed down a wimpy fence. Those were Herefords too, so the baby looked just like Mama. Named him Oscar (as in Meyer weiner). Calves are so cute.

He has a thick, muscular neck. I love him.

We want regular status reports. I need to empty out the bator and set turkey eggs. Among other eggs...

My grandpa had several of those crosses. Prone to pink eye but beautiful cows.
They are sweet but he will start throwing his weight around pretty soon. The twin thing happened here, momma kept the heifer (Stimpy) which was smaller and cleaned the bull calf but run him off. So I had Ren (bull) that I bottle fed. He got pretty pushy with the bottle so I finally bucket trained him.

Sir Loin is going to be a happy little calf! The campers will eat him up
He’ll forget he’s a cow and think he’s a kid or dog lol

I like the males with the shorter faces too.

Granny, a cow would make a good lawn mower for you. Maybe an Amish neighbor could stake one out on your place. Free pasture for them, mowing for you.
