The light red heifer who has outshone all the others is DT 09 9, our fifth calf, also born on Spekboom farm on 20 October 2009 – the day of Tom’s sale!! She has such a regal bearing that her name is Princess!! Her dam is PS 01 56 and her sire is ADM 04 33.
The first calf to be born at Eagle’s View, on 2 November 2009, is Lily (E 09 1), the light red daughter of our oldest cow, Blom(SW 997). Her sire is ADM 04 33. She is showing signs of being a very good cow indeed and we trust she will follow in her mum’s illustrious footsteps.
