poor sweet misty the cow lost her baby and is just devastated, so we’re getting her a replacement baby from a dairy farm.

we’ve arrived at the farm and i immediately made a new friend

HELLO BABIES

cow acquired.

baby’s first car ride

taking the cow home along the scenic route, on the blue ridge parkway

this precious twelve day old jersey cow does not have a name! subscribers to @NeolithicSheep’s patreon support the preservation of rare heritage breeds and get exclusive baby animal pictures and get to help name the creatures of the farm!

the nice farmer suggested that we skin the stillborn calf and make this calf wear the dead baby’s hide like a horrible flesh cape to fool misty into thinking this is her baby, which the shepherd tells me is, in fact, a fairly common practice. we will not be doing this.

we have another two hours in the car with a calf who has now pooped in the car

why won’t the cow take a selfie with me in this moving car
