It's her "FEED ME!" face.

I swear this cow (Christine) likes to get her picture taken ... whenever I whip out the camera, she leaps into action!

Would be more realistic if she had goobers hanging from her nose.

Large as a barge!

I have two old cows, so I tend to be generous with the feed as it's actually hard to keep weight on them. So Christine and her daughter, Lillian, who are my young girls (relatively speaking ... Christine is 9!) get the benefit of the extra chow, too.

Between the 4 of them, they split a 50 lb. sack of 12% sweet feed and 3 bales of hay per day. In the wintertime, they get a protein lick tub and an extra bale.

They all enjoy their "noms"!

These are my old girls, Twister and Bitey. Twist is 14 and Bitey is around 12.
