The calves are all are very cute, and at feeding time when they are all together, they get into a big competition. It's a real feeding frenzy.

Cody is a really cute little guy with his white socks and white tip on his tail. He really loves being able to run around in the round pen and kick up his heels for joy. It's a real gift knowing that these little guys can experience freedom, love and compassion.

All the calves love the great big horse soccer ball. They love licking it more than anything. Sorry guys, that's not where milk comes from!

A little girl spent a lot of time with the boys during their nap time today, just snuggling up with them, letting them know they are loved. She also sang songs to them, it was really cute. When she saw them run, she said "They're like me, they like to get out and run!" How very true.

Banjo really enjoyed curling up in the sun during his nap time. He looked so peaceful.


We have some wonderful news! A sanctuary contacted us, and has offered to give Nemo and Cody a forever home where they can live forever, roaming the hills and eating grass. How exciting! As the program grows, we are hoping to find more sanctuary organizations and sponsors for the calves giving them that wonderful gift of life. It is so wonderful to be able to save them from a life that only knows pain and suffering, but how much more wonderful would it be to offer them the gift of a long and happy life too!

We received many encouraging emails, this one we just wanted to share: "I just wanted to let you guys know that I have been so touched with the new program that has been started for the baby calves. It was so heart breaking to see the way those babies were being treated, its so hard to understand how people can be so cruel. You are truly an angel. I want you to know, that for me, saving these babies to give them a peaceful and loving end is truly a blessing for them and heaven will definitely have a spot for you with many critters waiting to be reunited with you~ God Bless you and your family for all you do." Thank you for your encouragement!
