Welcome to Moosters Meadows - home of Irish Dexter Cattle! We strive to breed a truly dual purpose Dexter, providing both excellent beef and milk. All of our Dexters are purebred and registered with the American Dexter Cattle Association (ADCA). We'll be blogging about what goes on here on our little ranch in Wyoming and life with Dexters.

2013 in Review

We started our calving this year with a calf in the house.......Acqua di - in the bathtub, in the calf warmer and in our hearts.......

And we ended the year with another calf in the house......
Miss Frostbite

In between (and including these two little beauties), here are the statistics:

11 Bulls                  
10 Heifers
13 Red                   
8  Black                  
11 Horned              
10 Polled  
              
We almost made it to the 50% of everything statistics.  It makes sense that we are a little heavy on the reds.  Dance is red and most of our cows carry red.  If we counted the little stillborn female (which I didn't), we'd be at exactly 50% male vs. female this year.  

All in all, no complaints, other than most of them didn't get to stay here!  

Wishing everyone a very Happy 2014!
