More losses.


Our dairy show team has had some bad luck.
One bull calf (for sale for profit) got kicked in the head and died.
One really good spring heifer calf got either histoplasmosis or cryptococcosis (I forgot)  - a disease from birds.
One ate a six-inch bone fragment that punctured its reticulum.  It was pregnant, so of course, the fetus died, too.
I feel bad for anyone who loses an animal.  I remember what it was like to lose Parsley.
