My apologies to anyone wanting corn on Friday afternoon and not getting it. Yesterday we had a first calf heifer deliver and develop complications with the birth. After work I normally pick new corn for the cart, but upon finding our heifer in distress I could not pick. After about 3 hours of doctoring (our own of course) to fix her uterine prolapse we got her fixed up and took the calf to the barn where we are now bottle feeding it. It was a large calf for a first timer and she could not push it out all the way. It is in the barn now progressing nicely and mother is in the pasture recovering with the herd. She was up today and grazing. We also processed 30 chickens this morning and are working on a barn project to get finished before winter. We are about to feed our little girl again before we retire for the night, until her midnight feeding.
