2024: Calf 6 - Little Beulah's

This morning when I took out a small hay bale to the cattle in the middle pasture I discovered that Little Beulah had a calf a little earlier in the morning. A boy calf.  Another big calf.

Late this afternoon Donna, Michael and Kari came over to help me band and ear tag the calf.  Donna let Kari do the banding as Michael and I held on to the calf.  Donna supervised as Kari never banded a calf before.  The calf's scrotum was on the small side.  But his testicles were down which was good.  Kari had to make a few attempts as the calf's testicles would slip up before the band was released.  But she got it done.

A beautiful calf.  I wish it was a heifer as I would keep the calf as a replacement heifer.
