Calf has nursed. Sire is a highland. I don't know the weight.

Charlotte's calves were 12 months 3 days apart.

He's doing really great. Charlotte is being a better mother then I thought she would.

But I will say this...Charlotte is our tamest cow and doesn't try to run away from us...she follows us around and she likes to be rubbed...her baby has not ran away not one time...I really like that. Charlotte doesn't care how close we get to the baby...but she does watch us.

Thanks for asking!
