I sold a lone cow and calf to a family in cumbria to use as a house cow. the cow gets lots of attention and seems fine on her own. she of course has a new calf this year and the old calf still runs with her so they have a nice wee family unit.

Thanks Dom, that's good to know. Are they milking her?

Snowflake could be milked by hand or machine, and i dont know if they are continuing or not. they had 8 kids to feed so i think the milk was needed!
