We’ve calved 21…

…more than two-thirds of the way though. And for those keeping score, it’s 14 bull calves and 7 heifers. Two of the cows here are with their first calves.

THF 18 (top photo) is one of those births. The dam by a Thistle Hill cow and the sire King David, who is English. Birth weight 75 pounds.

THF 19 (middle photo) is a 70-pound bull calf out of our very first English cow, TDA 7. Sire is Essington…so this is a pure, traditional English Devon.

THF 20 (bottom photo) is another calf born to an American Devon heifer. The weight 60 pounds and the sire King David.
