He was delivered today. The first calf of the 2012 season. He is a Jersey calf. He is light brown with some very nice white spots on his side.
The photo really does not do him justice. It’s hard to get a good photo in the dark barn when the calf won’t be still.
They say that the Holsteins bring more money at sale time, but I really like the look of the Jersey better.
No bottle for him tonight, that’s already been taken care of, but the work begins tomorrow… early… Welcome to warm bottles, and cold 5am mornings.

Nice looking calf, we will be thinking of you when we are up for morning feedings with Luke.
Thanks Tim. I have to admit that I didn’t go out at 5am this morning… I was a bit slow
Looks good stan hope he does well with these cool nights keep him warm and dry that is a big plus with a bottle baby he from a local farm
He is from a farm right up the road
Do they have any more to sale my mother wants one a Jersey heifer
I don’t think he sells any heifers, but I’ll check
