[QUOTE="vclavin, post: 936141, member: 13613"] My totally Blind Registered Angus cow had her bull calf on 7-2-2012.... not from bull she was with.. had to be from a 6 month weaned bull calf. I will get DNA matches when I get the calves blood sample. Anyway, she is a really good momma. She quickly learned how to be easy when nosing calf so she wouldn't knock him rolling - lol. She then made sure he was always in front of her before she laid down. She now keeps him in a corner by her hay when she is eating or against the wall in a corner close to the door when she is laying down in the breeze. He knows to call her when hungry and she calls him when looking for him. It's really neat to watch how she has adapted to being blind. We leave the light on in the barn at night so "he" can see, I'm sure she doesn't know he is NOT blind. Valerie [/QUOTE]
