It's that time of the year again.....CALVING SEASON

It has begun....calving season!
 
We had our first calf yesterday....along with #2 and #3 too!
Of course they all came on the day we get a blizzard! 
Not fun but goes along with the business.
 
 
 Baby #1
Born before the blizzard began.
 
 

Baby #3 born right in the middle of the blizzard.
He was in rough shape when we found him so he had to spend the night in the heated shed.
He is doing good now, back with his mama!
 
We normally have black babies but I bought a few bred cows at the sale barn this year
that were bred Charolais.  I thought we would still have black calves since the cows are black
 but they are proving me wrong.   
 
It's going to be a busy month here on the farm! 
Praying for some much needed sun and warmer temps.

That is awesome but seems like a lot of work. The babies are so cute. :-)
