Meet Andre the Giant! He was born on Tuesday night to Cow #5187 and weighs over 100 lbs.
His momma ran away for a day after giving birth so we loaded him up and took him home for a bottle.
Momma was located and they are now back together. Both are adjusting well.
Sheesh, I’m pretty sure I would’ve run away for a while after trying to give birth to a baby this big, too!
What a beautiful momma and baby!!! Andre looks so soft!!
Super soft and sweet!
Whoa! That is a big, big, big calf. Glad he’s doing well and Momma decided to come back. Gorgeous.
He and momma are doing great!
Big but nice!
Indeed!
Great pics!
Thanks!
Can you blame her? LOL Glad to hear she didn’t abandon it.
News of my trip… I spent the day looking at land over in Payson AZ. Beautiful place in the middle of nowhere. After 6 hours I returned to town in frustratiopn and splurged on a new Resistal hat at a local Western store! I tossed my old palm woven one in their trash as I walked out… Ooooo, lookin’ good now! LOL
I love baby calves, especially watching them romp. But perhaps this over-sized Andre is a bit too large to romp.
My son was 10 pounds, 12 ounces, when he was born, fortunately via C-section or I might have run away, too.
Whoa! You are a brave momma, too!
I can’t wait to get a photo of the smallest baby we’ve seen. She is too cute!
Oh, my GOODNESS! What an appropriate name for such a gigantic calf – what a cutie he is, though!
