Twins


I promise this is the last blog about baby calves, but I couldn't resist sharing these two little cuties. Born a week ago, they are the littlest calves I've ever seen. Of course, my hubby, who tries to raise cattle for profit, isn't as impressed with them as I am, especially since they and their momma have to be penned up separate from the rest of the herd. That means a little extra work feeding & watering, and they won't grow as fast as the others so that will add time and money to get them raised, but I still enjoy watching them and marvel at how strong they are for their size. They race around and chase my dog out of their pen like they are really tough. Of course, the dog is bigger than they are, and she knows she isn't allowed to chase back, so they think they are all that!!
