Well, after many nights staying up, checking on my heifer, she finally calved!! On 11/12/11 at 11:15 am, I got a healthy red Lim-Flex heifer calf!!
There is a long story behind this little girl.. My heifer, Snooki, was 2 weeks over due. We were very anxious waiting for her to have this calf. I decided to go up to a friend's ranch on Saturday morning, thinking she wouldn't calve. Hmmm... I thought wrong! After being up in Bryan, TX for 2 hours, I got the call that she was calving. So drove back an hour and a half to my house and just missed the birth by 25 minutes. I was bummed.
But to make it all better, I got to see her stand up for the second time and helped her nurse for the first time! My little show heifer did a great job with this calf! So then after the excitement was over, we decided to start thinking of names. All of a sudden, a torrential wind comes through and I felt like I had been transported into The Wizard of Oz! Then, it came to me! Dorothy was her name ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
