Charles has been shopping and came home with 2 Dexter cows (mother and daughter) who are supposedly both in calf, so we could have 2 extra 'lawn mowers' soon.
They might look placid but as a small breed they still have a lot of strength as we found out when they charged through 6 barbed wire fences when spooked by our little neighbour (LuKa aged 4). They are really scared of little people.
Named Nikki and Nina they have settled in and are both chewing their way through the grass which is higher than they are in places... but with all the rains the grass is growing faster than they can eat... perhaps another 2 cows for the 'herd' is a good idea.
We look forward to having calves soon and will post photos as soon as the moment happens.
