On this very cold day , the cows were especially happy for their treats. We feed them some extra alfalfa on cold days as it raises their body temperatures to help them feel more comfortable at night. Until about 25 degrees, Brahman cows prefer to huddle close and sleep outside. But with cold wind chill temperatures like last night , they go into the barn and huddle up on the comfortable mats with hay beds we make them.

Cows did very well during last week’s hard freeze. They spent lots of time at the hay ring. They are smart enough to know that eating a little extra especially before the bitter cold at night helps keep them warmer.

Here are two wonderful shots taken of our new bull calf by our good friend. He has really adjusted well to all of our cows. He has his mother and 5 other godmothers who all look after him and protect him from coyotes which calves are particularly vulnerable to be attacked by.

This is Pingala, with her new bull calf Balram. They both have bonded well together and we really have seen the beauty when the newly born bull can stay with his mother and the herd. Sadly at most dairy farms , male calves are removed from the mother shortly after birth and then slaughtered for the veal industry.

Wanted to share some exciting news for the sanctuary. Welcome to our new calf Balram. He has thus far adjusted very well and has been a joy to watch explore. In the coming days will share more cute pics.
