New arrival at Wessex Lowlines

We had a calf born early this morning,  luckily another heifer calf ! bright eyed & bushy tailed, as I type I can see it through  the window and its galloping around the field as lively as you like. A key bonus of the breed - easy calving , the cow has plenty of milk and very good mothering instinct yet no worries with temperament. The calf was checked over and tagged within 2 hours of birth and while mum kept a close eye on what was going on there is no sign of aggression.
