Part of the 2007 Calf Crop at Falster Farm
Alex Burger is on the left above
Calved April 10, 2007, weight 38# with no assistance. Mother has excellent sweet milk. He is a cross of Miniature Registered Hereford MB MARTIN LUTHER x Old World Jersey JOSIE. His disposition is calm
and playful.
In the training of his mother to milk I put him up over night in a corral pen by himself. In the morning I milk his mother by hand. When I have collected about 8 lbs. of milk I turn in with me and he suckles two teats while I continue on the other two. We get along well.
He enjoys playing with the dog playing hide and go seek. Here he thinks he is hiding behind this tub.
The calves like to line up and see what Dixie will do next.
