some of you know i have a cow due to calve in april. well happy days. she calved early. i was hoping for anything with dominant white. hoping for a heifer. yesterday at 3 she had a white heifer. she is naturally polled. mom is a dexter belted cross. we used a white dexter bull. she is so tiny. little black hooves and nose and ears. she has some black in spots. i know she will get blacker as she gets older. got the bo-se in her right away. cold wind snow yesterday. today snow. they have no shelter. dexters are tough. we clear today and it gets warmer.
I bet she's just the cutest little thing. I have never seen a white Dexter though. Only black. I bet he's a handsome fella. Congratulations on the little sweetie. Yay, fresh milk!!!
