Today we had five new baby calves, four of which are bulls. They’re adorable but this little bugger has taken my heart:
He’s got droopy little ears like a baby pig!! The other four are adorable too but this one is my favorite. He’s got polka dots on the front of his shins!!
I'm a country girl from the western part of Virginia in a small community of New Castle/Craig County. I've lived in Craig all my life-eighteen years with my parents and siblings and forty + years with my wonderful husband.
We have two children, a boy and a girl, and two grandchildren, all of which we love very much. We live on a 500 acre+ farm that has been in my husbands family for over 200 years. We are raising beef cattle, chickens, rabbits and a couple dogs.. We grow pretty much all we eat or harvest from the farm and I can't imagine living anywhere else.
I love to create, craft, quilt, read, write, decorate, crochet, candlewick, bake, bow hunt, cook, garden, farm animals and walking/hunting in the woods. I love sharing our home with family and friends.
I hope you enjoy the posts that I enter on my blog and hopefully will be helpful and/or fun to all that read it.

What I like and do.
A little mix of DIY, fashion, & motherhood.
This site is about my life as a farmgirl, wife, mother and grandmother and the things I love to do. I've been married to the same man that I love for 40+ years. We have two beautiful adult children and one granddaughter. We pretty much live off of our farm by raising our food or hunting for it. My blog is a day to day walk-through of our life.

He’s the first one we’ve ever had that had droopy ears and they remind me of a baby pigs ears! 🙂

What a strange colouration? Pity the calf is a bull, unless you may keep him as a herd bull???
I wonder if you do, what colouration of calves he would throw / produce with the cows.??
Would be an interesting scenario.

His mother is Angus and his father is black white face. He’s a small bull but throwing some beautiful babies. We had hoped to have some heifers (girls) to raise from him but so far he’s throwing bulls. They of course bring more money at the market so we don’t complain too much.
