The cold weather always brings out the new calves. Glad you got your wish of new milkers. :D

Too bad I'm not a teenager in you area, or I would get into trouble just so I could do "work time" at your place and take care of all the animals. :p

Snow White and Mrs. Potts are the proud mothers. The reason I hadn't noticed them getting large udders is they are out a ways from the house and were already fat. They had been with a bull but the previous owner didn't think they were pregnant. Will be movin all the Jerseys to there newly built pen for ease of milking.

Yes, the calves are sweet but a little chilly.

Yes in an older post I admited my wife and I were Diseny fans and named some of our Jerseys after characters. It wasn't too hard to get the mothers into the new pen once we put their calves in the wagon but we have yet to move the rest of them. I had to milk both Potts and Snow White as they just have so much milk, they could have quads and still have extra.
I'm very happy to say both calves are heifers and will most likely stay.
