Here's our new heifer we will be picking up next Sunday. She was the one I originally enquired about (she's a quarter Jersey, three quarters Highland) but she'd never been handled so the lady wasn't sure if she would tame down enough to be milked. So she thought another, who had been a pet before she bought her, would be better.
She put both in her yards and worked with them and she let us look at both yesterday. She felt the one that had been a pet might be a bit pushy, but this girl was progressing really well and showing potential. She's sure she's in calf too. She'll work with her more this week for us and then we'll keep her in our yards and work with getting her used to us.
She's in calf to a mini white Highland bull who we also met yesterday. The calves are adorable.
