We had a birth on the farm today! Dust, one of our Irish Dexter cows, delivered a dun heifer. We've decided to call her Bunny. Dust Bunny. *grin*
She wasn't too hip to the idea of a bath so soon after entering the world.
Her mother had other ideas.
Sweet Potato and Leia were very curious! Soon enough, Bunny will be bouncing around the farm, giving these two a new playmate.
Welcome to the farm, little one!
That is SOOOOO sweet! Mommy is working her over, and she's not too excited about it. Her name is adorable!

It seems sometimes that You live on the Mc Clintock spread. An endless parade of cattle births, I've lost track of names and quanity. I'm sure she will look devine (no pun intended Gabi) in a day or two, but at the moment she looks as if she was dipped in an egg wash and rolled in cocoa powder. Clever name as usual. No need to tell people we used to name our animals after people we knew..... oops that slipped, at times it proved awkward. Give my best to the new mother, and you may have to hit Willy up for a little pasture space. Herd expansion being what it is. Your next bull calf you'll have to name "Prime" or possibly "Porterhouse"....Love, Dad

Oh how I adore your posts about life on the farm. I'd give anything to have a farm of my own but I'll just have to settle for my little flock of chickens in my backyard. So far the neighbors haven't complained so I'm a happy camper.
