Baby Hereford

[accesser]

A young Baby Hereford born today around 6:30 am

I woke to the news from Dad that one of our four older cattle had just given birth and sure enough we now have a young one.

We have had cattle for some time but this is our first born on our land we have previously just purchased from the cattle sales.

Yes it should be great, We have had young ones before but never like this

Newborn is now sleeping with the rest of our herd just discovering the new member

How bigger herd do you have?
Got a bull or just cows and call in a ranga?

We recently got the four old girls all pregnant
& we also have some younger ones 5 I think we also have another 2 over the road on a neighbors place no bull however

PS. Did the video Embedded ok ?
I set the video as private on YT but I think it should still work if I use my link

Worked fine for me.
Thats cool. My parents run 110 head of Hereford with a couple of bulls. Gets a bit busy round calving time ;). Especially fun when you have to round em up through the paddocks to solve the young bull issue ;)

She's a very good mum she spent most of the morning licking him
She also sticks close probably a good thing as we get dingos now and then
