Stormy's growth
Some readers have asked how our little calf Stormy is doing. She’s growing! The photograph below shows her drinking her breakfast moments after I finished milking Maggie and released Stormy from the calf pen.
Honestly, I’ve never a calf this leggy. She’s nearly as tall as Romeo, who is three months older. Romeo is, of course, much beefier, since he’s not only older, but a half-Angus, half-Dexter steer.
Stormy and Romeo are good friends.
It seems Stormy might be polled, too, which is interesting. We’ve never raised a polled calf before. Saves us the trouble of dehorning her!
She’s also very sweet and affectionate. Originally we were thinking we would sell her (a woman from our church is interested), but now we’re thinking we’ll keep her as a possible second milker when she’s older. With her half-Angus heritage, her calves will be beefier and will work as meat animals (especially since the only bulls around here are pure Angus, so we can keep the meat lineage going). Meanwhile we’ll phase out our pure Angus animals, since we prefer the Jersey strain. Filet has a date with the butcher in August, and next year it will be Mignon’s turn, followed by Romeo the year after that. Meanwhile we might keep our eyes peeled for a second purebred Jersey sometime next year.
So that’s the update on Stormy.
