[QUOTE="DallasGal, post: 1337112, member: 24909"] Hello all, I would just like to give an update on Two Cents, for those who might be interested. To recap: He was born around February 20th weighing less than 20 lbs (estimate), a singleton, full term, fully developed, proportional with possibly a slightly enlarged forehead (but this could be attributed to the crazy pile of curly hair he has atop). He does have an adorable overbite and he grinds his teeth - which I read can be a sign of stress. At around a month old he was seen by a vet and weighed in at 30 pounds, which the vet noted was remarkable. He did have a bit of a cold, which was treated and he has subsequently recovered from. He is now approximately 3.5 months old, weighs about 35 lbs, and is vigorous and healthy... he just looks like a really, really, like really small cow, proportionate in every respect; just a "regular" cow scaled down! He is kept in the "baby" cow pen most of the time and let out to pasture with the herd a few times a day. He still can't be left alone with the herd lest he end up underfoot or taken by coyotes at night. I will post updated pictures when I get a chance! Cheers :) [/QUOTE]
