The Baby Calf


This baby calf's mother died a few days after it was born. We think lighting might have struck her. Neal has had that happen to several of his cows in the past. The calf made it good for a while. I think he was actually stealing milk from another momma cow. This week we have started bottle feeding it. The calf was not very interested in this bottle or the milk. I think he is doing a little better now, though.

Blaine took the last two pictures from the 4-wheeler. He's getting pretty good with the camera! As you can see, Judd was watching very closely! Most of the time he was petting the calf and trying to ride it! Gotta love living on a farm!
