Well we're either really big suckers or fate has stepped in...we now have TWO calves!!!
This is Duncan.
Duncan was in stall #11 when we went and picked Elmer up last week. Sadly, Duncan was headed for departure from the farm via "the meat truck" the following morning. As we pulled away with Elmer, we stopped the car 4 times considering going back for him, but ultimately decided one cow was plenty enough.
Fast forward to last night and we had a phone call from the farm. Duncan was still there! They had a few other heifers still due, so they decided to hold off on the meat truck, so they could send all the bulls together. Apparently, all the heifers birthed girls this week! They hated to call the meat truck for one bull calf and asked if we'd take him. How could we say no!
Again, fate or suckers?...we're still not sure!!!
Welcome Duncan to Silver Hill Farm!
