We started a new adventure a few months ago. We bought a ranch! We are starting slow and got 32 pregnant heifers to begin our herd. This adorable little girl was born a few days ago. This herd is going to grow fast; I hope we know what we're doing lol!

Awww, she’s lovely @Gussie. Will you be naming them? :mrgreen:
 
Wow, what a big adventure!! Congratulations on your first calf, how adorable!

Ohh goodness. What an adventure this will be!!

Please share it all with us!! Your first baby is beyond precious :love:
 
What a love!
 
Aww, love baby animals of any kind! Much luck and happiness on your new ranch!
 
Congratulations! Here’s to the first of many happy, healthy calves.
 
OMG! This is so exciting @Gussie! The calf is so cute!
 
Thanks yall for the well wishes. Hopefully we know what we're getting into! My only stipulation on the land purchase was that it not have a house on it so I can build exactly what I want. We won't move there for about 6 years or so. By then my "city kids" will all be in college lol. Until then we have people running the cows for us. But it's definitely an adventure. I haven't seen DH this excited in years!

What a sweet and happy future for you. Years ago, I lived in a small house rented in the middle of a 1,000 acre farm field with Angus cows. The house was surrounded by a fence. We parked outside of the fence. There was a young bull that would come visit and I would give throw an apple over the fence. He would eat it and we were both happy.

Was a great plan until the day when I needed to go to work and the bull was between the gate and my car looking for his apple. Hindsight is 20/20.

I wish you the best and happiest life on the farm, Gussie!

@yennyfire My PS handle actually has farm origins! :bigsmile:
The very first horse I trained with - my parents bought him later - was older fellow named Yesterday, which we all shortened to Yssie ::) An Appaloosa, about as not-scopey as they come, but he was so patient and gentle with his kids. I was devastated when we had to let him go :(sad But so many happy memories!!

Aww, I love that! So you always have Yesterday in your heart! So sweet!
 
This is SOOOOO exciting! I would love to live on a farm & potter around amongst my chickens! But I think the farm in my head is very romantic & misses out the hard graft.

Definitely name them after PSers! A baby cow called Alex T!
