New calves on the farm.

This one is Isabelle. She is Sara's calf. Her mother is Millie. Millie was born on Sara's second wedding anniversary and was a gift from her Dad and me. Sara's favorite movie growing up was "Seven Brides For Seven Brother's" and Millie was the first bride. If you know the story, the brothers were named alphabetically for men in the bible. When Millie had the first granddaughter she continued the names and named her daughter Hannah. Millie's (the cow) calf last year was named Hannah. Following the tradition, this years calf is Isabelle.



And this heifer calf was born on Sunday. Her name is Remi. (St. Remi)
Her mother is Helena. Helena is actually the first calf that we breed ourselves with the first herd bull, Paul Heinz, ear tag #57 and Cow 34. As you might guess, Paul Hienz was a black bull. We have four of his daughters on our farm now. Remi is Norbert's calf. You might guess the color of Norbert!


Oh and Isabelle is Norbert's daughter. Norbert is now our Herd Bull.
Paul Heinz has left the farm.
