First calf of the year

Last night we got our first calf of the year and the first from our embryo transfer programme so we have a full blood lowline (bull) born to a pedigree Aberdeen Angus surrogate mother, there have been some concerns about the calves being able to reach the teat but thankfully ungrounded as the perky little fella suckled without problem. The lowline calves are always so bright and spritely straight from birth. Fingers crossed all the remaining calves make such an easy entrance to the world .... And that we get a run of heifers now!
