Last December we went to Humbie Mill to look at the calves so we could decide which one to buy.

This is one of the calves we saw and it is a Hereford.

The calf nearest to the fence is the one that we are going to buy. We bought a Hereford calf and it cost us £140.

This is the milk feeder that the calves drink out of.

This is Mr. Hodge showing us about a passport that each calf has. He told us about all the medicines and money it costs to keep a calf. We are going to pay to keep the calf.

Holly was bought at Beeston Castle Market and here is the journey she travelled from Tarporley to Humbie.

    Hi Holly,

    We’ve just been reading your blog in our class.

    We really liked the pictures. The cow was nice.

    We’d like to see a video of the cow.

    Bye for now,

    Dear P3-8 (Mr Whiteside’s class)

    Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving your comments. I hope that the pupils at Humbie Primary School will take more photos of me very soon and put them on the blog. I also like your idea of a video of me and will try to get one on the blog very soon.

    Please come back again soon.

    What is your birthday and how old are you now?

    Any chance of a visit to Saltoun Primary School?
