Seeing Daisy with her calf is like looking at another creature. Daisy is an attentive mother, one who takes her new role seriously. At the same time, she willingly allows us to handle her baby.
Lorenzo taught me how to catch and halter Daisy today. At first, the cow was nervous, but with Lorenzo's excellent help, she settled down and began to trust me. I'll be able to move her and the calf into the temporary manger at night.
Watching Daisy with her calf makes me realize how important a good start is, how wonderful it is to experience a mother's sweet touch.
