Maybe you need to go get another bull calf from that guy your brother got the one he's grafting on that cow and hand raise it.

She's going to be a sweetheart too. Mandy didn't want to clean her though. Tara wanted nothing to do with Sarah yesterday either and I couldn't find anyone who wanted her. What is it with these cows? That's two in a row and normally we have cows bellowing for the calves.
