Cattle

Rivera

Our cow #195, Bali, had her calf. Rivera weighed 75 lbs. at birth near the back corner of the property behind the spring.

Bali is a mild mannered cow and had no issue with me coming in just minutes after birth of her baby and assisting the little one to stand and walk along the hillside toward the nursery field.  She knew that she would be fed once she walked her calf to the field and she led the way across three muddy ditches and through the open gate.
