Well done Karen for posting this video. It’s important to show both sides of farming, the good and the bad. I’ve been following your channel from the beginning and your love for your animals has always been clear to see. I’m a total softie where it comes to animals so I can imagine how you feel, even though your cattle aren’t pets but part of the food chain, it doesn’t make it any easier when an otherwise perfect animal has to be destroyed before its time. 🇬🇧

Tough to share these types of moments Karen and after reading the comments from other Fans in here, we ALL can feel the sadness from your part of The World. Please know that by keeping The REAL in your REEL, we do get a sense of the good and bad, happy and sad and of course the fun and laughter that does come from your Farm. It can't always be gum drops and lollipops, so there are those times when we have to eat our meal without any spices! Love and Hugs to Big Red while you have her around! Keep Strutting and soon enough your smile will catch up! Cheers and MOO From Across The Pond In COW-lumbus, Ohio 👋

Hey Karen, I am so sorry to hear about " Big Red" She is a great looking Cow. Unfortunate we lose our best ones, Take it from me losing any of my Horses has been a heart break that does not go away easily. Being a man of 65, I still cry over my Jackie. She was with me for 25 of her 29 years. So I know your feelings. Grieve for as long as you want, There is no time limit on it, Remember the good things about Big Red. Not going to say that I enjoyed this video, I see you hurt and I hurt for you. Thank you for being honest and for being you. Rich

So sorry to hear that bad news,as you said not about money sometimes but maybe as a memory to her buy something to remember her by.Slow job to replace her in the herd replacing your breeding stock is it 2 or 3 animals short now herd size I guess that is governed by how much fodder the farm can produce and the the cow shed (me hoping one day you have plans for an extension)but you are doing a fine job on improving your grassland to increase stock ratio.Hope the weather gives you a break for silage making.

OMG Karen i can see the sadness in your eyes even before you had the negative results and my heart goes out to you but we as Humans do become attached to them in there own ways they winsus over and alwayd have fond memeories of this Beauriful Girl. We accept it when thngs go right as then it is all plain sailing but when things go wrong it does hurt the heart i know as a youngster i would cry many times when we lost one i was close to. You dont blame yourself you are a very hard working young Women and there is only so much yuoucan do when it comes to nature. Time will pass and memories may fade but the thoghts will always remain. The new 335 is a beast when you stand along side of it and great to see how you have adapted to it. Aussie Bob.

Listen girl always remember it could be worse! My grandmother had two cows and one died she went to her mother in-law in a fierce state and the old lady said that they had a cow once and she died and they lived! Sorta took the wind out of granny’s sails but she repeated that story every time we were upset about a loss and you know what it did focus our thoughts on what really matters anyway you could buy a cow with a good calf at foot for what you will get for the cow in the factory.
