A black baldy cow we can see across the river has new twin black baldies. I hope one of them is not a free martin.

Lost the second baldie heifer calf that I posted a pic of . Found her off to herself and could tell she didn't feel good . Gave her a couple rounds of antibiotics but didn't seem to get better . Was afraid she was dehydrated so I got electrolytes down her and saw improvement and next thing I knew she was dying. Hurts to lose one anytime but especially an almost 2 month old calf . No discharge from her nose , no coughing, a little runny poo but no blood . No other calves sick so far . So I don't know ? This is second calf her mom has lost . Last years I found dead when she calved , so I wondering if it's her ?

Wonder if it would be worth it to have your vet do ( whatever you call an autopsy on an animal) on it? How far from Auburn are you?

I could have carried her to the diagnostic lab in Boaz Al but my wife was having issues with her BP so I've been to the er at 3:30 am one day and 8 pm the next day so we buried her . Probably me being the cause

Your wife or the calf ?

Buried the calf , I'm probably the cause of the high blood pressure for my wife .

Here is a Nov 27th heifer calf.

We don't often get a baldy! But today a blue roan commercial (2nd calver) delivered this little sweetie. 92 lbs. of pretty cute Last year's calf was a blue roan so this was a bit of a surprise!

Kind of a surprise, momma half Hereford, half angus, bred back to an angus bull . All the other calves have been solid black . 2 more heifers calved on the same day .

Not a baldie but our gurula heifer , mom looks Hereford but not purebred and out of our black angus bull . First calf heifer. It's a heifer calf , sort of a chocolate .

Here's another of the baldie heifers , calf more what I expected.
