R.I.P. Maisy Moo

ByJon

This week has been like no other, we had the terrible loss of Herbie our bull, on Tuesday, only three days later yesturday, we said goodbye to our beautiful Maisy Moo.

Maisy Moo was hand reared by a farmer’s granddaughter and kept as a pet after Maisy’s mum died during birth, when the farm closed she came to join our herd.

Over the years we have been privileged to share our lives with such a beautiful girl, she received lots of love and attention and she certainly adored the human contact and fuss. She was born with hip problems and after nearly 15 years these birth injuries caught up with her, it was time to let her go peacefully. She is now with her best mate Boris the blind bull.

We are truly devastated, losing two cows in three days.
