Lots of calving photos (link)

Today, after five previous calves, I finally got to see one born!  Thank you, Ebby!  Here's a link to a blog post with lots of photos.  I'm glad I don't need to post a warning about graphic photos here!   Thank you, legendrockranch, for talking me through it and reassuring me it was normal!

Congratulations!!! So glad you got to see it - it's amazing to me every single time!

well, I'm more inclined to congratulate the cow, but then....this calving was probably almost harder on Susan . Barb's great, isn't she!

Well done, all of you. cheers, c.

You're so right, cddexter, hearing her groans made it pretty hard on me, too, so I think it's a toss-up.  And yes, Barb is great!

You guys almost made me spit out my lemonade!

Ah thanks Susan, I'm glad all went well. You are correct c this was probably harder on Susan. I have to admit Ebby was pretty vocal which was a little concerning to me.

Congrats Ebby and Susan:) I have one cow that is very vocal. I guess if I was birthing something that size I would be too.

Congratulations Susan and Ebby, it is great to have friends all over the county and in my case the world to share our Dexter experiences with us. I have made some wonderful friends who I may never actually get to meet in person. So far the farthest friend I have meet is visiting us from Scotland.
