When you've run away from your mum and hidden in the bush, outrun two farmers, snuck in a quick nap, tried another mad sprint but eventually got tackled, and then been trussed up in the back of the buggy, you appreciate a bit of fresh colostrum. All at less than 24 hours old!!!
I'm not sure if the guys were pleased or not, BUT, just on the cusp of getting really busy with calving, I had a brainwave of how we could alter the calf shed to improve flow.
