Baby is 10 days old and thriving! To say that Steph is in love is an understatement (surprise, surprise 😄)
Drum Roll Please: Baby Girls name is Ash ❤️
Blue is the best momma. She may be stubborn and rather grumpy at times, but she has completely checked every box of a perfect mom.
Tomorrow they leave the shop and head out to their spot in the barn/pasture. Since someone (Steph) had to have these blue roans whom were already bred and due to calve in winter, it was a given we'd have a baby during the coldest stretch of winter. Carl's shop turned into a calving pen. However, it's warming up, Ash and Blue are healthy and doing great and now it's time to join the herd.
Blue is attached to our other blue roan so she will be happy to be placed back in birthing pen (stall and pasture) with her friend.
Our next calf (our other blue roan) is due March 10th. Followed by a beautiful shorthorn heifer who is due in April.

Side note: Momma technically didn't get a new name .... so we call her Blue (she's a blue roan so it works)

Last fall we bought 2 blue roan bred shorthorn plus heifers.Due dates of March 1st and March 15th.Thank goodness for dai...

Last fall we bought 2 blue roan bred shorthorn plus heifers.
Due dates of March 1st and March 15th.
Thank goodness for daily check, because things seemed to be progressing fast for one of them.
With a snowstorm and extremely cold weather forecasted Carl gave up his shop to put up a temporary pen.
Midnight everyone was happy chewing cud. 5am, -10 below zero and the camera showed our heifer in labor.
1st time momma, small in stature and bad weather we wanted to be at the farm and ready. It's a good thing because she definitely was not going to have her calf by herself.
Our cattle hero, Joe agreed it was time to pull. After momma chased Carl around alittle (man, that guy can scale a wall and fence fast) we pulled a beautiful blue roan heifer calf.
The pen in the shop was instantly filled with a healthy momma and baby!
Our 1st calf of the year!
