Dairy Q&A

                                                                       Question:

                           How long does a baby calf live in a pen with that little white building?


      Answer:

Our  newborn calves are  placed in an  individual hutch (little white building) 
within the first twelve hours after birth. We are able to monitor each calf
 closely for any feeding or  health issues and provide a more protected environment.
 In eight weeks, the calves will be removed from the hutch and taken to a small
 pasture with a group of calves of similar age and size.

Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Last weekend I was the keeper of Margaret and Cody's  chickens,dogs and goats while they were away for the weekend. It was very entertaining, especially when Mother goat managed to get out of the pen and decided it was more fun to be on the side of the grain sack! 


                                                                                     
                                          I'm thankful  for  the smiles Bonnie and Clyde provide
                                         to me and others just because they are sweet and cute!
