Well, here are some pictures that I promised of the new heiffer calf. Our oldest daughter named her Stormy because she was born on a very stormy night. You know, that is when these things semm to happen, isn't it?
This is the only close up I could get. She is a cute little bugger, isn't she? She is 100% Dexter and of the long leg variety. She is the spittin' image of her momma. You can check around our blog and find pictures of the Sire, if you're interested.
She is now, officially, one week old and doing fine. She is nursing and getting feisty. She likes to jump around like she was a goat or something. She is about that size :-)
Stormy is looking for her first taste of hay, in this picture. I don't know, really, I just thought it was a cute picture.
Yes folks, she will be for sale. Our goal is to produce small cattle for small homesteads, like ours. We also want to provide animals that are affordable because we know what it is like to be on a budget, desire to raise your own food, and not have the money to get started. So, we have gone the route of purebred Dexters without the pedigree's, thus we are able to sell them without the inflated pedigree price. If you're interested in her, drop us a line. You can email us at sppowers@iglide.net, or, leave a comment here and I will contact you.
I'm sorry it took so long to post these, but, my middle name seems to be "procrastination". Really, I've read other farm blogs and I tip my hat to all of them that can post daily. I can't seem to find the time. I hope you enjoy these.
