Well, no baby yet!
In fact, Beulah Petunia seems pretty unconcerned.
But me and the boys? (Eclipse, at the fence.)
We are pretty pumped up! This is the most exciting thing that’s happened since Clover had her babies. Or since Poky came to town. Or since the chickens started laying eggs!
Maybe we are a little excitable around here.
If you want to make guesses here between now and the end of time about when BP is going to have her calf, I will send a BBB to the winner with the closest guess. (Date and time of the winning guess will be the date and time I discover the calf, as I may not know or be present at the birth!)
NOTE: I just posted a bunch of photos of BP yesterday here, from all the handy angles. Sorry, I assumed you all had seen that! If you’ve already guessed and hadn’t seen the photos in that post, you can change your guess if you want!
Nancy in Iowa says:
Beulah Petunia looks so regal, but Eclipse looks like a nervous father!!!

Hmmm looked at your post from Aug 28th, her bag wasnt ready then, and since there is no picture from that view here I cant tell on todays post, not a good enough pic to make a good guess. I have Angus and can make a pretty good guess with them but my first Jersey calf will be born this spring, and they are built different so here goes my guess on your beautiful Dairy Cow Petunia!!!!! Sept 22 5:00am (if I win I’ll tell ya WHY I picked this date!!!) :cowsleep:
