Textbook Lambing

As I stood feeding our Jersey calf his bottle last Thursday (2/23), I noticed that Bertha was pacing in a small area and sniffing the ground a lot.  I figured she was in labor – a few days earlier than I had calculated – so after Cookie was finished his bottle I decided to watch Bertha and make my first Facebook live video.  I realize not everyone is on Facebook so I wanted to share the video here, too (our farm page is public and anyone can see it).  I tried to keep it from being too graphic for folks who don’t want to see too much of the birth.

Enjoy!

    • I totally agree! Since I didn’t grow up in the ag community I know how little is taught about farming. I love having friends and family visit and explaining how things work. Posting online is important to me because there are so many people who don’t have access to farms. I want them to see and learn about this stuff.
