Easter Baby!

Woohoo, this morning beckoned with lots of sunshine, frost on the ground, hungry critters and a new heifer calf this morning. We just missed the actual birth but were able to observe the newcomer getting up and nursing. Sandy, the mom, allowed hubby to pick up the calf and we were able to tell it was a heifer. Mom and Bunny (what else could we name her?) are both doing great! Looking forward to seeing Bunny up and running around.

Larriette, another cow is also very close to calving so maybe we will have two of close age to watch play.

A cow birthing an Easter Bunny!!! That is a miracle for sure.

Cadence and I had such a fabulous time meeting you and the cows and visiting your wonderful farm. Thank you. We will try to make our big decisions tonight and give you a call.

Oh --here's our farm blog--featuring a couple photos of your Dexters.:
