first

[@MrsEWhite87]

I think the name Rosie suits her!

[@aquilschutte]

I think you should name her rose cus of daisy its fits with the theme

[@aquilschutte]

@@MrsEWhite87 i almost had the same idea i didnt steal the idea from u this whas also my idea

[@eshaalabid9011]

I think Daisy will be a good name.

[@jayne-maries4542]

I think she's suit Poppy. She's so adorable and needs a name that reflects her beauty 😍

[@therandomsuperhero5199]

I like that name

[@JBE1Fitness]

That is the name my son suggested!

[@pineapplebomb]

I think it is a awesome name 👍

[@TerrieAllred2023]

GET A KICK BAR FOR THE MAMA COW. Doesn't hurt her, just prevents her from kicking you. You can put the mama in the milk stand with the kick bar on and put the baby on her so she can get enough to drink.

[@daletaylor6881]

That is not a bad idea

[@jealousyschannel5302]

Order a microphone instead it kept mooing did you not hear it the whole time of The calf trying to stand it can sing

[@darlenedavis8690]

Exactly what I was thinking. It doesn't hurt the mama cow, would allow the baby to nurse, and would keep whoever is milking her a little safer.

[@sarahmacalfiesmom6030]

I love the thought of picking a few of your favorite names and letting Randy choose. He’s such a nice man with a heart of gold!!!

[@stephaniegardner6236]

So happy the calf started nursing, was really worried for her❤

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Me too!

Same 😊

Maisie + Dolly = Molly sounds so cute 🫶🏼

[@benekra]

I Bad the same idea because of the same reason😊

[@promisedjubileedaniels]

Perfect 😍

[@alexacofina3504]

What about butters? I think it’s really cute

[@ameliehebert7480]

I think the same

[@Lanis_mldz]

Or Daisy

[@KarimaInWonderland]

Hooray! Welcome to the family little one! Maybe name her Daisy 🌼 like you know "loves me, loves me not" but instead "is she pregnant, is she not" or "will we have this calve today, or will we not" or "will she eat, or will she not" 😅

[@2010aj707]

💗

LOVE the way Becky treated Dolly like a spoilt brat telling her to "Quit it!" soooo glad baby calf is finally drinking 🥰

[@tracydirksmeyer5519]

Such a beautiful calf. So excited for you guys. We think she looks like a Hazel. 🤗

[@Desire4firez]

Beautiful birth! Momma did great! Suggesting Nova for her name since she was born in November ❤️

[@vitalydoroshchuk6320]

I love the name Nova! That was a great suggestion 😊😊

[@Poko0Chan]

Poppy, like the flower would be a very fitting name. She is so tiny and fragile, like a flower

[@ellagrace4888]

I think she should definitely be either Daisy or Molly as a combo of both

[@asinclair1234]

Maybe you could call her Daisy a mixture between Molly and Maisie!

[@hanjingwu5943]

You should name the calf Lacey, it sounds nice and it’s kinda fits the little calf since she’s so gentle

[@pinkishgacha-art]

Aww, she’s so cute! I hope you have a good time raising her! Edit: name suggestion too, I think daisy or molly would be good!

[@thebenulimegothy]

I was thinking Molly

I was thinking daisy to or hope

[@elenab1720]

BABY COWYY SOO adorable 😍 💕 ❤ 💖 💓 💗

[@Deadcntr]

Congratulations on the new calf. We used to make sure the calf was feeding and would even put the cow in a head stall to allow the calf to eat. If, while milking, you tie the cow's legs together she will not be able to kick.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thought about doing that... it was hard to get the calf to stay standing for very long, but that could have worked, too. We were getting frustrated and the calf didn't want to stand after awhile so we gave them both a rest till the next day.

[@rediscoveredlife8323]

@@whitehouseonthehill You could tie the cows legs back when milking until she gets more used to it. Then she should stand and will be a better nurser next time.

[@lunachic03dh]

I’ve seen other homesteaders use “Kows Kan’t Kick” bar when milking. They seem to help.

[@nikolazdenkowska2678]

I think Blazey will fit her since she's a fighter and didn't give up on trying to feed when when her mom kicked her off

[@ravenghoul1533]

I second this!

[@thebirdofburns]

Consider calling the calf aqua

[@nikolazdenkowska2678]

I hope her name will be Blazey I always try and name one of their animals but my names never get picked 😔😔😔

[@lisadavila1328]

So glad to see that sweet baby born. Like y'all I was worried about her at first with her not eating. So grateful that she started feeding from Mom. I like the name Molly for her. God is so good, she is such a blessing.

[@tiachandler5350]

You can tube her...sometimes if they won't drink the bottle that can mean they are eating from mom though ....she is just so so precious

[@peapod3286]

I think Lily would be good name since she was so delicate in the beginning.

[@lindanichols7893]

I was beginning to worry that she was fading, but she didn’t give up! I like the name Molly for her.

[@jonathanapontebrito8735]

I think a perfect name should be "Hope" for the new calf. Congrats by the way 🥳.

[@Totallynotcucurucho]

The calf is adorable congrats!🐄🐄❤

[@jackflash9735]

Molly would be a great name!! I'm happy to see she was finally birthed and is healthy after a little concern!

[@alittletlc9139]

So wonderful to see her thriving after such a tremulous start! I was thinking...with all that red fur, she would make an adorable Pippy, like Pippi (Thanks for the correct sp Carina Kaarli) long stockings. Keep at it guys!! You are an inspiration to us all!

[@carinakaarli4784]

Or Pippi as is the original Swedish name😉

She's so cute! How about Tillie or Betty? Hope the calf gets all her nourishment from mama and not have to be bottle fed. That would be hard work. Congratulations! Miah from Roots and Refuge got a device to keep the cow from kicking and it seems to work well. You should check it out. It's just a curved bar that goes over the rump and keeps the cow from raising her hind leg. It might make milking safer for you.

[@montanamountaingarden476]

A good way to see if a calf is nursing when you suspect they are, is through the bottle you were using. They won’t take a bottle nipple if they’ve gotten milk from the cow, they also won’t suck on your finger if they’ve gotten milk from the cow. And another thing to note is, like newborn babies, newborn calves sleep A LOT! And hoe much they sleep depends entirely on their personality and how ambitious they are

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

I am very glad you guys went back out and checked on the baby calf because like you said, it is very important that they get that colostrum in your system early!! Time is mamas are just skittish and don’t want to stand still for the cabin sometimes like this gas was just weak from the delivery it seemed like it was a long process for both of them and she was worn out I think so her legs couldn’t be found under her, so why are you guys going out and giving her the colostrum that she needed gave her that extra boost whether it was in a bottle or from mommy. Once she got that in her system then she had the energy to start eating for mommy and they will settle down to do the job that needed to be done!! She REALLY IS A BEAUTIFUL CALF😊♥️♥️♥️♥️ I like the name is Angel and Sweetie Pie 💕♥️💕♥️💖 I’m so happy you guys were able to see this baby calf and I look forward to watching it’s coming days on the White House farm
