1. this is Rosebud, our 2006 bottle baby
here she is in a pic for each of her years. She had her first calf this year but he wasn't around when I finally took the recent ones today.

5. Rosebud is beautiful.
Please tell me nothing bad is going to happen to her. (Can you tell I'm a city girl)?

13. well no guarantees in life, but no, she is a pet
she can stop by the house for black bananas for as long as she lives.

6. Awwww!!!
How cute! vard jr's heifer was bred, and we're keepin' our fingers crossed that he can show them as cow/calf pair next summer at the fair.

Thanks for sharing!

11. Yes, we have no bananas!
vard jr says he is gonna see if any of his cows will eat them if you think yours would stand still for the bath and clipping :rofl:

He has, in fact, slathered molassas in his back pocket to get two of them to learn to follow him around. I wonder if I dig out my recipe for bananas foster, that would be a good treat for them too? :think: Might be a little messy though...

9. she is a mutt - in livestock terms just a commercial crossbred
she has hereford, limousin, and probably a little Brahma in her judging by the way the horns are starting to look. Don't know what her mother was so it is all a guessing game.

12. Looks about right.
Does she moo for you when you're outside?

I can smell her sweet alfalfa breath from here.

:loveya:

15. Tell her I'm sorry, the fruitflies carried them away.
I'll save the next batch for her though.

She's a pretty gal. I love her eyelashes.
