Progress report on calving

St
We have 21 cows due to calve this year - with only one maiden heifer (2008 produced 8 boys and a girl).

As of half an hour ago ... we had 10 calves - with no problems and no losses.  Here is the latest arrival to a cow called Haviva.

Yesterday Grumpy-bum, otherwise known as Sarah, calved and wanted me to leave the paddock forthwith.

A day earlier she had upset the Chairman (woman) by trying to chase her out of the paddock when we were just trying to move them to the best paddock on the place.

I gave her a quick tap on the nose with the nearest thing to hand (an electric fence Tread-in) - then felt guilty about it.
