KING COW

We got a calf. We will get two piglets today. So, I guess you could say we are becoming a regular farm. Nate has been working on the chicken mansion and the pig shelter for the last few weeks. He said he is really enjoying himself. I am glad he has had some time off of work to get some of these projects done.

Sierra has adopted this little one as her own baby. She takes care of it. I haven't been out to feed it once.  If I suggest anyone else feeds it, she will run down stairs, and yell at all of us. It is her baby.

He was abandoned by his mother. No rancher around here wants to bottle feed a calf, so we are the suckers that paid $200 for the privilege. However, I am sure when the first steak comes I will be grateful.

We have named him King Cow. We were going to name him Burger, Steak or Ribeye and then that evolved into Burger King and then got shortened to King Cow. I hate that Sierra is getting so attached to him. If he makes it, he will go to the slaughter house in two years.
