Any news yet? Are you managing to get any sleep? We rent our cottage from a farmer and when she is calving she doesn't seem to sleep for weeks.

Are your cows good at escaping - Jill's are! Shocked

Yep just came back off hols, and theres a stunnnig little bull calf. Its chocolate colour, yum! Its so cute! That means theres 3 bull calves here and 4 cows, no heffers though sadly.

The cows are escaping all the time into the back of the garden where the chickens sometimes go. Calves and chooks have made freidns, and the chickens sumtimes sit on the cows backs lol
