Wow! I can't believe that had happened! And what I did! Update post 28

Thanks everyone.

I did not work this morning, and I had to call my boss to see if I had to work tonight, he said, no, I do not have to work until Friday morning. I asked him how is the calf doing, he said its doing very good.

He sounded surprised to hear that it was born breached, and I helped it out. My dad wants to raise some steers, and he wants 2 calves, so we might buy that calf that I helped.

But it will be sad when it is old enough to be put in the freezer.

But that is not for 23 months, so I don't have think about that until the time comes.

I love dairy cows, always wanted a milk cow, so I feel that helping deliver the calf, might convince my parents that we can get a cow, but shoot, cows are not cheap to buy!

I can start with a heifer calf, but my boss will not sell any for they are his future milkers, plus they take 3 years before they give birth their first calf.

Glad the baby is healthy

Well done Daron !! Take a bow, you deserve it !!

Keeping your cool and getting it done is what its all about. It looks like it is a big calf !

I wish that a few million more young people got to experience this. It sounds like your boss has a very good business there and is doing things right. Good place to bee.

Nothing like watching the miracle of birth.

We got the bull calf home!

Here he is a week old in my new chicken coop-

I just cannot get over how big he is, no wonder why he was so hard to pull out.

Aw! He is adorable! So you got to keep him! That is awesome!

AWWWWWWWWWWW

the chickens are like "that is the UGLIEST goat we have ever seen!...wait, what's a goat?"

P.S yes I know it's not a goat lol

but shoot, cows are not cheap to buy! I can start with a heifer calf, but my boss will not sell any for they are his future milkers, plus they take 3 years before they give birth their first calf.

if you really wanna look into getting heifers, look at your local C.L, you'd be surprised, mostly you'll find bull calves for cheap, but you can always ask if you can make a deal on a heifer calf

or if you have livestock auctions in your area you'd be surprised

I go to the ones around me all the time, and once someone got TWO calves for 50$!!!
