In the providence of the creator the weather is cooling down and the earth's focus is shifting from upward growth to downward growth. It is time for those gestation cycles of our early spring breedings to bear fruit (282 days.) So it is depicted here; in this short clip of the birth of a fine, lusting for life, pure bred miniature Hereford bull calf. As I mentioned in a previous posting, the design of this farm is to have a one man operation, and; that includes a birthing area that is convenient for observation. To the South of my study is the orchard. 6 days ago Nancy observed the signs of this miniature mama cow's forthcoming delivery: swelling of the area across the tail head, the flesh looking flaccid, and then the udder starting to "bag up." So, due to the fact that she is a special cow I moved her in from the rest of the herd (of about 80 head) for pre-natal observation.
KNF LILLY FAYE is special because she is the 1st cow to be purchased and placed into the Falster Farm Mini Cow/Calf Investment Program. Mr. Matt Spenser of Southern California is the proud owner of this young mama cow, and this is his long awaited first calf. We await Matt's pleasure in the naming of this youngster and hopefully he will develop as his ½ brother KNF SIR TRISTAN has: Miniature Polled Hereford docile and steady with excellent top line conformation – low line.
If you are looking to add the POLLED GENE to your mini cattle herd, you should give this young bull a close looking over. He is for Sale as a mini herd sire prospect for $5,500, guaranteed to breed. Follow the links above to get a better view and full description of the relations.
Congratulations to Mr. Matt Spenser.
