    Default Twin heifers!

    One of my Jersey cows - Charm (aka Paris) gave birth to twin heifers this afternoon (Mothers Day!). I just had to tell someone - so you guys are it
    I am so delighted & so grateful. So far Mother & babies are all well.
    Blessings to all.

    Awesome! Are they full-blooded Jerseys or a mix? Jerseys are my favorite cow, I am jealous. I hope they both stay in good health. Once they start romping around, post a picture or two for us to see.

    They are registered jerseys.
    I tried to post a photo last night. I can't figure out how to do it. Again. Fail.

    I loath technology. It constantly defeats me.


    Here is the link to a photo on my flickr page. That's the best I can do
    This was taken just after they were born. The calf close to Charm is the first born & smaller of the 2.

    Lovely Helen !

    You can't share the pic here because it says in Flickr "The owner has disabled downloading of their photos" but thanks for the link.

    Hi Eco ... nice to be here & nice to see you again too

    I'm trying to figure out this photo thing. I did it before in the fox skinning thread so I know it's possible. I'm following the instructions but I don't seem to be seeing what the instructions tell me will happen. Maybe it's a Mac thing?
    Mum & the babies enjoyed their first day sleeping in the lovely autumn sunshine in the paddock way up the gully that's way up the valley that's in the middle of nowhere. Happy Happy

    Helen, when you right click the mouse you normally then click on the address of the image and post it in the forum using the little photo frame above the posting box but in Flickr if you disable that function then you can't post your photos straight into the forum.
