The worlds ugliest had her 1st baby this morning. It is a bull calf sired by 249SR1757 Stenslanda. His mother keeps watch over him outside the pen. He shares the pen with 3 Holstein heifer calves.
This is a follow up to the first video that I made in April of 2006. 4399 has finally grown short curly hair and is due to calve in February. The ring was put in her nose to break a nasty sucking habit.
W-H Ace 3458 was born cross eyed and bug eyed. The cow is usually calm, but startles easy because of poor vision. She will run you over if you get in front of her.
A Praying Mantis was in our garage and was nearly stepped on. This is my favorite insect. They are quite rare and I only see a few each Summer around my home and at the farm. We let it go in a safe location once we were done playing with it.
This young cow is daughter of 7H8163 Temptation from Select Sires. This young cow is milking 80 lbs and is on schedule to be super-ovulated. Her dam is a VG85 Alzi Juror Ford. She has a maternal brother by Encino at ABS. (29H13631 Fusion)
These are 3 crossbred daughters of the Norweigan Red sire 5522 Svarstad. The mostly Black cow is out of a Brown Swiss/Holstein cross and the other two are out of a Holstein. They are 1st calf and milking 60-80 lbs.
The calf is 8 days old. She was born partially hairless and her eyes constantly weep. She has go to be the World's ugliest calf. She is being raised for dairy and not beef.

First cutting of alfalfa. The haylage is dumped and packed into concrete bunker silos. The haylage is then covered with a plastic tarp and used car tires are put down over the tarp.
Collective Soul performs December at the Altoona Curve Baseball field in the Summer of 2007. Also playing were LIVE and the Counting Crows. I was here for Collective Soul, one of my favorites. In the song they borrow part of a song from the Killers
We have 5 Turkey chicks that we found on a mountain. Today they got loose and we took a video before we put them back in their pen to be released when they get a little older. Sadly our calico cat made off with one.
