The idea with these 5 is not just about understanding what's required to farm calves, but to sell them as yearlings or older.
It's been an experience of feeding them twice a day with milk until they were slowly weened off to grass (although my husband did most of it).
A very strange feeling of them sucking on your hands thinking it was the feeding time.
It was even funny weening them out of the shed to a paddock with electric fences. Fair to say they were not happy at first, but with time they got very used to it.
They are now in the same paddock as the sheilas, but that has even taken time for all of them to get used to them.
Aaaahhhh, it's great looking out at the land to see them all getting bigger by the day.
