The last momma to calf this year ended up having twins. We were all excited, but mainly Brad. See him and his dad had been guessing she was having twins for a while so when she did he was all excited they were right. But on the other hand they didn't know how the mom was going to react. I named the calves " Donnie and Marie". The mom rejected Donnie, so Aunt Breanna took him home and tried to bottle feed him. No luck, Donnie died. With out its mommas colostrum he didn't have a chance. The good thing is the calf let the kids pet and play with him. It has helped the kids not be so afraid of the cows!
