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!
