About a week ago we came out to Bloksdal Mirabelle -ET (Vaillant x Anabelle) in the morning. She went out into the enclosure around the farm, as she was due to have a calf soon. It turned out to be closer than expected, as she had given birth to a calf herself in the morning. Mirabelle and her new heifer calf of 55 kg were then transported to the barn, where the calf had its first sip of milk.
It was Mirabelle’s fourth heifer calf in five calvings and her calving interval is 373 days.
The new calf is by the French bull Heracles (Royal Excelent x Demoiselle). The calf will be numbered 435 and will be called VeryBelle.
