This calf was born outside tonight, it is very small and we had to take it into the house to give it warmth, it had a good sook on a bottle, and is now fast asleep. Wonder whos going to get the early shift. LOL

That is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cute! if i weren't at work in the morning i'd offer to do the early shift :D
Aaaaw Highlander - how cute - good luck with your new addition!
We had a premature calf born 7 weeks early 8 years ago and had to hand rear her. As I am sure you know it is hard work. The calf is now a very health cow and had lots of calves herself. Good luck
The things you folk have in your kitchens!
Good to hear that the calf is ok highlander, hope both it and mum make it through.
As for doing the easyly shift well there's only one person I can think of!
What a lovely calf Highlander, your kitchen is starting to look like mine. [lol]
As for the early shift, just ask him who's coos they are?

Looks like someone out of a Disney movie ;-) Very cute!
