I know I haven't mentioned much about this other than the one post on fb but I have a bull calf here that I've been bottle feeding for a couple of weeks. He came from some nice folks in Mo who have a dairy. This little guy got injured somehow in the calf pen and they wanted someone with some time to mess with him to come and get him and try to nurse him back to health. My friend Sabrina told me about him so I drove over there and picked him up. Poor little guy had a jacked up leg and couldn't stand up. So, I rubbed and massaged on him, heat packed him and bottle fed him 3 times a day and yesterday morning, there he was, standing up! He's not out of the woods yet, he's still got some issues but standing up in any form is an improvement! This little guy is a fighter, has not given up or gotten even a little bit depressed. So, now I've got a bull calf attached to me....

ReplyDeleteI am wondering where you buy your stevia seed? I haven't seen it in any of my seed catalogs/stores. Rarely, one of the companies lets you order one live plant.
Anon, Rural king(owned by walmart) has stevia seed. Also check Jungs catalog, they had it last year, they may offer it still.
