Our New Cow


We got another cow--her name is Ellie May.  She is a little wild, but we finally have her hooked up to a rope so we can grab her when we need to, and we are working on having her get used to us.  I tried to touch her belly today, in preperation for milking, but she would have nothing to do with it and kicked at me.  So, we are still working at it.  Elsie is very happy to have a friend.  She has also established herself as the boss cow.  Could be the horns give her an advantadge.  I know I try to steer clear of them.
Ellie May is in the back.  This is when we first got her and she was especially nervous.
