Woot! It's White!

Twenty days ago we bred Christina.  We got a cow pregnancy test kit to see if she's really pregnant.  It's more complicated than the human pee-on-a-stick model, but we can test using the milk (which is easier to obtain than pee) and it wasn't difficult to follow the directions.

The test was $54 for six tests and it will expire this year.  But it's cheaper than a Vet visit and it lets us know sooner.  We REALLY don't want to miss another heat cycle.

After adding two drops of this and two drops of that, we waited 9 minutes to read the result.  It was white.  White is pregnant!  Praise God!  Praise God!

Christina is now officially due Dec. 3rd.

This week we find out which new cow is coming to join our baby farm.  Audra will get a Vet check for pregnancy.  If she's pregnant, she's our new cow.  If she's not, we'll get a heifer who will have her first calf this fall.  We are so excited!
