New Years Baby

[iowahawkeyes]

We had a New Years Baby last night. My daughter's show heifer (black crossbred by Bold Statement) had a nice black baldy bull calf. She wasn't due till the 8th but our good ol' Mac (polled Herf) bull has a short gestation and they are usually a week early.

My daughter is a big Harry Potter fan. Thus this bull is named James, as in James Potter. If it had been a heifer it would have been Lily Potter.
