Scooter
Cat added for reference. That is Chainsaw, who is quite a small cat and Liz who is not exactly a giant. Scooter is so little that it is easy to scoop him up under one arm and carry him away.
June I did a lousy job with the photos. I was in a hurry because it was time to work...they make him look much bigger than he is
Dani, he is amazing. We have calves all the time, but he is so spunky in light of being born so early and so tiny. Hard to believe that he is a cow
Deb, he is. lol
Lisa, yep
Cathy, thanks, I love spring! The birds! The flowers, the wonderful scents, the babies of all sorts!
Nita, as you as a farmer know, he has no place in the commercial scheme of things. However, one beauty of slaving away day in and day out for no wages and no profit in this thankless, fruitless business...if you want to keep a little preemie bull just to play with, there is nobody to tell you that you can't. And he is cute. lol
Tina Marie, he is just a corker...he has been a little off color the past couple of days, but Becky fed him a soda bottle of electrolyte solution this morning and he slurped it down like it was soda.
June, he does get lugged all over the place and he loves it. He follows the kids around like a little dog and they scoop him up and take him all over the place.
How incredible cute is that!!
ReplyDeleteAwwwwww!!!!! Can't wait to show Elizabeth!

He is sooooooooo cute....
ReplyDeleteThis is how you can tell I haven't been near a real farm for years, although I was born to one: I would be carrying him around in a baby carrier. :-P
