OUR WORLD - New Arrivals

A little while ago my granddaughter purchased two

little 3 day old Jersey heifer calves

destined to be our milk supply in years to come.

Jersey mik has a higher fat content than other milkers

so, should I live so long, in three years time

we will be enjoying our own milk, cream, 

sour cream, butter and a variety of cheeses

BLISS

being so long legged, like giraffes, 

they were still a bit wobbly on their pins

not sure whether she was playing 'hide and seek'

or feeling safer with support on both sides

whichever, she soon backed out again and joined her sister

a lot of bottle feeding at this stage but,

when they come into mild, we will have 

enough milk to feed any number of orphaned lambs and calves

as well as supply the extended family.
