As this is our first calf born here, we will probably just sell him when he gets grown....
BTW - We had a few steaks on the grill last night from 'ol T-bone....
He sure was a fine fellow...
No offense...

I always wanted a pig so I could name it Kosher, that way no one eats Kosher.

Looks like the cow has a bit of Milking Shorthorn in her. I admire your quiet neighborhood.
