Elsie is off to Cheyenne. She's bred to Winchester and should have a wonderful (dun) calf in the spring. She's going to be a milk cow! Her temperament is so suited to milking. She's easy to lead and handle, including her udders. She's interested in everything and truly sweet. We hope Addison enjoys her as much as we have!
Yardley and Wish are safely settled today in Blackfoot, Idaho. Wish is perfect with another buddy or two. She's a bit skittish in a big herd, so we think she and Yardley are going to make great pals and super Dexters for their new owners. Wish is sweet natured, but shy so she will be happier with only one or two pals. Yardley is still really young but she enjoys brushing and petting. She'll grow up to be a fine young heifer. We're going to miss them both, but know that they will have a great home with Page and Natalie.
We haven't yet decided our perfect herd size. So far, so good, as we are able to "visit" with them nearly every day. It means we know the personalities of each of our Dexters.....and they know us.
