We tallied up the votes and Wanda came out on top! 🥹 Thank you to everyone who voted and helped us name our sweet new girl. We think it suits her pretty well!

And since apparently we’re on a roll with baby cows… we need YOUR help again! 😂

Our newest little trouble making bull calf (pictured right) is officially looking for a name too! 🫣 So drop your favorite name suggestion for him below!! I’m excited to see what kind of names you guys come up with this time too🤭🤪

It’s a 💙!

This little guy is already proving he has quite the personality! 😂 He is somewhat of an escape artist and has already decided that staying where he’s supposed to is merely a suggestion 🤦🏼‍♀️ So far he’s been frolicking in the backyard and sleeping behind the haybine in the shed 🥴

His name is about to be Trouble 😂

It’s been an exciting Saturday morning around here 🤪🥳

We knew Winnie was close and being a first time heifer we wanted to watch her closely with her labor so we decided to put her in the corral for a few days and left Maple in with her to keep her company. She was getting up and down quite a bit yesterday evening so we took Maple out of the corral with her. When we woke up this morning, we found a little surprise waiting for us… a brand new calf standing beside her, with momma busy licking her little one 🥹
At first, I was convinced it was the other mama’s calf that somehow made its way into the corral. 😂 But sure enough, it was her sweet babe! She is already doing such an amazing job as a first time mom 🥲 We couldn’t have asked for a better first calving experience for her, I’m so proud!!!!

Now we just need to figure out one very important detail…

Do you think it’s a BOY or a GIRL?! 💙💗

Drop your guesses in the comments below!!!👇 I’m guessing 💙

The wait is finally over for this mama and we finally have a new little set of hooves in the pasture 🎉

Mama and baby are doing well so far. Getting to experience calving is truly one of the most amazing parts of raising cattle. Watching a new life come into the world and seeing that first moment between mama and baby is something pretty special 🥹🤎

Welcome to the herd, sweet girl. We’re so glad you’re here!!! 🤭🎀

Drop your best name suggestion in the comments! ✨⬇️
We’d love to hear them all!!

Things are drying up over here and the girls spent a bit of the afternoon on this pretty day in the salon! 😂 Caught them after their “blowout” 💁‍♀️ with a few treats in them… even though they’ll be back to mud mode in about 10 minutes 🤦‍♀️
