Valentino

Posted on February 14, 2021February 14, 2021

2:30 am, a series of “mehs” woke me up. Vernon has checked the heifers and found #91’s calf had made an appearance. Although it was born inside, -22° is still cold and at only 40 pounds or so, the little thing was premature. Hence, the visit to my mud room.

I rotated warm towels on him, rubbing and drying him off. Vernon had managed to get some colostrum into him.

Time would tell. I quickly named him Valentino. Hours later, I did a Facebook live video, sharing his story. Throughout the day, I’ve done more. When I figure out how to download them and then put them on YouTube, I’ll share the link with those of you who don’t do Facebook. So far, he’s made it through the day, and that bolds well for the little squirt.

I’ll try to video live on Facebook at 7:30 in the morning, and check in again with his progress. I’ll see you then!

    I am glad that I was able to see the live broadcast. It was very cool. And as usual you showed us the reality of ranch life. I am thankful that you allow us into your life. Happy Valentines day. I am rooting for him.
