Finally after two nail-biting weeks of over due-ness, Lazer made his arrival in the wee hours Friday morning. He was EIGHTY-THREE freakin' pounds! Gigantic calf for any heifer, but Brownie was a hero. She absolutely had to have help, but he was positioned correctly and everything went as well as could be for such a big guy and first-calf heifer. She is being a wonderful mamma and has plenty of milk. Which makes me think, why can't she be my milk cow when he goes to grain and grass? Angus milk cow? Why not? The butterfat is much lower than some breeds, and quantity is less, but really, it's not like I'm going to drink 3-4 gallons a day. That's plenty.
