22/04: Jenny the mother cow had a very smooth birth again on 21/04. She is an exeperienced cow. Less than five minutes after the amniotic sac became visible, the calf was already out in three pushes. The afterbirth came out after about four hours this time.
She is also a very calm and attentive cow.
I am going to name her calf "Jelly". Jaro and Jana have now a little sister.

21/04: Newly born calf. The birth went smoothly and the mother cow didn't need any help. The calf had a little trouble latching on properly, but with a little help, it worked out.
Within the first few hours, it received as much colostrum as possible.
In the meantime, the calf has recovered well.
I am going to name her "Jelly".

Our four gray cattle calves can still spend a few weeks outside and enjoy the beautiful weather. They eat like champions and always demand dry meadow hay as a change from fresh grass. They are waiting for fresh hay again. I have to bring two large basket full to the pasture a day. They are supposed to gnaw on young willow shoots in the forest above in the meantime as well. I read an article that said roughage from young shoots reduces greenhouse gases and ammonia in excrement.

Our two grey cattle calves are back from the alpine pasture and now in the calf compartment of our stable behind wooden bars. They are healthy and eat like champions. If the weather is nice, they will be out the whole day in the pasture for a few more weeks. The calf on the right is a poky aggressive one and constantly nudges the other calf. I hope that this improves and that she will not continue to butts with her horns later on as a cow. Still have to give both calfs a name.

03 October 2024: Time flies by. Our two newborn graycattle twin calves Jana and Jaro are lying on a bed of straw inside a barn with a whitewashed wall. Each calf is covered with a small towel or blanket to keep them warm. One calf is lying down resting, while the other is sitting upright with its head slightly lowered. Their fur appears wet, suggesting they were born very recently.

Jana is quite photogenic.

Our two gray cattle were quickly accepted into the new group. One of the light brown calves made friends straight away with both of our calfs.
