When 1 = 6

Remember a couple of weeks ago I mentioned we were looking into getting a milk cow?  If you recall, I said I wanted one cow.  Well, Dan's made all the arrangements and we have a total of six cows coming.

Yes.

6.

Cows.

2 dairy cows = 2

2 bull calves - 1 for breeding and 1 for meat  =  2

1 heifer and her calf  =  2

2 + 2 + 2  = 6

And apparently cows require equipment.  Lots of equipment.  Our UPS driver has been here every day dropping off cattle supplies.  Hopefully we have everything we need because Dan is driving to the dairy farm with stock trailer in tow tomorrow morning.

Oh, and one of the dairy cows has been bred, so we could have a pregnant cow.  More bang for the buck I suppose.

Pictures coming soon!
