I went and looked at Robyn's calves today, and she dropped two off to me. I had intended to pick up the little red jersey bull calf, but there was also a brown and white fresian x jersey heifer. Calves do better in pairs, so two it is.
The red bull calf, he is one week old.
The little brown heifer, she is 48 hours old.
They had been fed their breakfast, so I did their night feed as my first feed. They came right over to the peach-teat feeders and were no trouble at all to latch on. Once they reliably come for feeding I will open the gate of their hutch and they can mingle with Annie, Flora and Little Moo. Little Moo loves babies, and Annie seems to be keeping close by.
