Born 1996.......a twenty year old cow.
The farmer told me about the hair swirl cows have between their eyes. He said it's a sure temperament sign. The swirl needs to be as low as possible, lower than the eyes means a kind cow, higher than the eyes an angry cow. I've never heard that before but he said it''s a well established fact out in the world. When choosing a new bull the swirl was the first thing he looked at. Another sign of Canada World Domination, he'd been to Canada to get Fleckviehs. And some from Italy. Truth be told the Italians had no sand crack trouble, but the Canadian has.....Canada has not yet fully established world dominace. Way calm cows, completely safe among humans. They were tame as dogs, the farmer was pretty fond of his cows.
He spotted me and hid among the grass but it didn't take long for him to forget about me and venture out. When I tried to get down on my fat belly to get ground level shots he saw me again though and returned to safety.
