Tiara
came from Mike Bowman who sold her to us as a yearling. Mike
was wonderfully helpful, and one of the most gracious hosts that a
person could meet. Tiara is dependable and never causes any
problem. She is a great producer and
mom. This year she raised two calves, her own and one that
needed a mom. There was a third calf that I believe she would have
taken in a
heart-beat. She is one of the "watch dogs" in the herd -
always vigilant for any threat, but easy going and gentle around all
her folks. March 2010 we had a wicked blizzard move through.
There were already six new babies in the pasture. When we
drove in to feed, all of the adult cows came up to eat except Tiara.
When we found her, she was standing down behind a windbreak with all
of the babies up underneath her. She wouldn't leave them. |
