Smile Our new girl!
Here's our new girl Her name is Trillium, and she is the calmest, sweetest thing! She is currently dry, but bred. Need to worm, trim her hooves, and groom to spiff her up ~ but other than that, I couldn't be happier!

She's gorgeous! How old is she?

My Ginger's due with her fifth calf inside of two weeks now. She's starting to bag up and I've seen the little darlin' -- a heifer, if you please -- kicking like crazy just above where my right shoulder would be when milking on her right side. Saw a small bit of mucous at her "privates." She's very, VERY uncomfortable and HUGE! She even went off her feed for more than half a day.

Hoping we won't need the vet this time!
