Hello everyone,
In answer to a couple of your questions the black and white cow is called Jericho and is a Belted Galloway.
The Jersey cow is called Bambi.
The black/dark brown cow is a Gloucester and is called Muesli.
The other two cows are both Highlands and I have asked for their names to be told to me but am still waiting. For the moment lets refer to them by their horns (normal and wonky).
As fro Bambi's udder and vulva, despite having been barren for a long time now her hormones will still prepare her regularly for mating even though their are no bulls on site. This is proved by the fact cows are often seen tryiong to mount one another, known as bulling. Her udder will swell and retract during her cycle aswell so if you keep an eye on this you should see it retract after a week or so. if it does not seem to do so then I will ask the farmer to come and have a look.
