Precious on her birthday!

Happy Birthday to this little girl!! Oh, she’s so precious! She was born on September 6th, 2022. Her momma is a Holstein (Gloria), and her daddy is an Angus. If all goes well (praying it does) she will be staying here on the farm forever! I’m so in love with her already. Happy Birthday to you Precious!❤️

This is Angel and her babies. Angel is a rescue Jersey… we saved her from slaughter two years ago. (I’ll post photos of her in the condition we bought her in… it was really sad). But she’s doing well now, and raising several babies… one is her own, and the other two she adopted. Angel has been such a blessing to me. She is such a loving young lady! She loves attention, and loves to show her affection. She is my heart ❤️

Gloria is a Holstein that I bought from an individual last year. She was malnourished and not doing very well. Her previous owners had just weaned her calf off of her, so she was depressed. When we got her home we began looking for her a baby to call her own. We found a little black heifer calf that we named Tilly; Gloria took to Tilly immediately and claimed her as her own. Tilly is still here on the farm and doing well! Gloria just recently had her own baby on September 6; having a little girl that I’ve named Precious (since she’s so adorable). Gloria was producing too much milk for just one baby calf… so I went on the hunt for an orphaned baby. We found this little black and white faced little boy calf yesterday at the salebarn. So I’m now getting him and Gloria to adapt to each other. She lets him nurse, but hasn’t quite accepted him just yet. So I keep him and Precious in their shed and turn momma in with them when it’s time to eat. As soon as I get the lot outside of the shed fixed so that the new baby won’t be able to get out, I plan to let them all bond together in that lot during the day. Now I just need to figure out a good name for this little guy… any suggestions?
