OOPS!... I DID IT AGAIN! Britney Spears

As you may well know in early December I tried my hand at a Bottle fed Charolais and it did not end well.  Jen and I had decided a couple of things; 1) Wait until Spring 2) Buy in pairs.  Well this week she was on Craigslist and found me some Holstein calves.   Well we did half of our plan; I bought a pair.  Let’s just hope I can keep these healthy.

Wow! What a difference between these two and the charolais calf. These two look a ton healthier. Best of luck to you. My sister just had 15 Holstein bucket calves brought to her place. She's going to be busy for a while...lol!
