Thistle Hill alumni club….
….includes this truly international calf.
The scene is Woolen, Ontario, Canada….the farm of Connie and John Moelker. The proud mom in the back is all American from Thistle Hill…from the old Lakota 48 line…one of the most noteworthy of the Devon breed. And the sire is from England…Traditional Devon’s Highwayman.
Which brings us to this little guy….calved just two days ago. His mom was one of a shipment of heifers we made to Canada earlier this summer. Not the end of the story by any means. The Moelkers plan to enlarge their Devon herd and offer Devon seedstock in Canada.
