Calves
Ayshire calves
We have two new Ayrshire calves from a dairy herd in Kent. They’re about 7 months old now and growing well. They’re names are Rhubarb and Custard.
The Ayrshire cow is a breed of dairy cattle who originate from the County of Ayr in Scotland. The average mature Ayrshire cow weighs 1000–1300 pounds. Ayrshires have red markings. The red can be an orange to a dark brown, with or without brown legs.
They are known for their ability to convert grass into milk efficiently, and their hardiness. The breed’s strong points are the now desired traits of easy calving and longevity.
