Cute calf, neat color. How old is the cow to grow her horns that long?

Horn Length does not always translate like that. we have cows with longer horns who are only 6 yo. and cows that are just as old with shorter horns.

Super cute!! If you are unsure about the sex lift the tail and if you see two holes it's a girl and just one it's a boy. Nice and simple. Haha. S/he has beautiful coloring!
