These are my cows! Or at least my cow, my seven heifers, and my two bulls. I don't know the cows exact age, but I think she's about five. All the rest are younger then two years old.
This is BIG MOMMA. aka Nusrse cow.She watches over the rest, keeps them in line, and adopts my orphaned calves.
This is Hectic, she's about one and a half years old and she's exspecting a calf in about a month.
This is Jasmine, She was born Valentines day 07, she is also exspecting her first calf about the same time as Hectic.
This is Bull. She is a girl. Matthew figured she was a boy by looking at her nose. Thankfully Jason double checked her gender before they actually got her to auction. She was born 1 mon, 12 days after Jasmine. I'm not sure if she's pregnant.
This (I think) is Suzanne she was born last april a week before Buckeye was. I can't tell them apart because they were kept in the same pen before we tagged them (Tagging being the main way to tell them apart) so I just have to guess which is which. She is pregnant also. I think I may have trouble with her because she is very small, she wasn't supposed to be bred until december.
This is Buckeye, she is also a year old this month, I don't think she's pregnant.
This is Nora! She will be a year old on June 28. When she was born she maybe weighed fifty pounds, she was so small and so beautiful. Now she big and has only one and a half horns. We found her in the pasture the day after her mother (a first calf heifer) left to go another farm.
This is VIVE, which means "life". Big Momma adopted her quite easily.She was born the day after thenksgiving. I was't exspcting her for another month. She is Big Momma's real daughter, while Nora was her adopted daughter.
Now here is Hamburger to be!
First Jo-Jo!
Now Horton!
We bought them from Landis'. They (the bulls) don't know that they are going to be hamburger. Jo-Jo wasn't doing so good the first few days he was here so I got Big Momma to adopt him seeing how VIVE doesn't NEED to nurse. They took to each other fine solving one problem, keeping him alive. Now I have the problem of Horton being not excepted to the herd. He spends most of his time a hundred feet away from them, or on the other side of the pasture. They are oth about two months old. Jo-Jo is a maniac, liking to run and fight with Moe, my dog. Horton is quite, too quite. I often have to go and get him and bring him out of the sun, or get him to join the rest wherever they are. But I like them all, I wouldn't trade or sell them for anything, Even though I will have to part from them sometime.
