She makes a shitty job both more fun & tiresome 😆
You'd swear she was bucket fed but nope, just loves people.

@bromfieldjulie1 Tried that, it spooked them 🤣

Down the other side of the hill this morning & managed to spot them without having to walk the whole way. Pheasant & cat traipsed behind me to my house where the best machine in the world lives.....the fancy dancy coffee maker 😍

@AndrewS32704070 I'd say he was hand reared.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

Soon be able to pet him 🤪

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@LynneGr Not yet 💥🚗

@GarethDay6 Oats and calf nuts are his favourite here.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics Inclined to agree with you there, was impressed by two calves here when about a month old but they didn't mature on as well as others. Bit lanky in themselves.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@flo2545 Cheating with this lad, he must have been reared for a shoot & escaped.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics We've not started breeding yet as there's 4 to calve over the winter & a few replacements to keep to we'll have a full shed by January, never mind other calves arriving! Will keep him in mind for next year as everyone seems to nd using Sterling on heifers these days.

@DesiFlurane 😂😂

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics Had Drumline S twins but no Rufus yet, happy with the former though!

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

The boys are back in town 🎵
December bull calves for both Amber & Poppy.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics What's your bull for heifers this year? I've a scan lad coming in a bit for the next three. Pb limos & one will be only 22 months at calving.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@RakiaAndSausage Now to figure out flights for 20 cattle 🤣

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

Three limos are in for scanning, straight to the brush for Tiffy 😂😂
Trees don't spin & scratch the itches quite as well.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics Never did our cow muscle genes here, eyeball only 😅

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics What's she by Shane? Some power to her.

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@DONALHICKEY1 No, shared one with my grandparents for years

[Karen McCabe @LadyHaywire]

@kinse91 @doveagenetics I'm just glad one of the cows had twins & not myself!! I'm si gle handed at it so can only imagine the chaos 😂😂
That red lady with the white star is some animal. Length of her!
Three beauties for sure.

@kinse91 @doveagenetics Had a great plan to halter train Nova's calf this year, surprisingly a newborn makes life a little tricky with spare time 🫣😂
