New Heifer, well sort of (pics)

For those who are interested, this is "Mea". She is a Jersey/Holstein cross, and 15 months old. The reason that she's sort of new is because I bottle fed her to weaning age, then sold her to a great friend of mine. Recently I was lucky enough to re-aquire her and unite her with her old stomping grounds. Long story short, she's the newest full-time member at Topside 1. She's been AI'ed since her return and I'm looking forward to the results. Thought I'd share a before, in between and after photos of this Jersey cross....Enjoy them while their young, they grow up so quick...LOL
