Now this is a time of a lot of change round here, but today is quite sad. Two founding cows from the Rosewood herd have been culled, after eleven years, they've been there from the beginning.

Any special reason? Shame. Were they your first, as it were?

One was the very first, both were infertile, but at 15 & 13, they were no spring chickens.

I'd hope you'd have spotted that even if you weren't a farmer.
Good of you to keep them for so long if they were infertile.

They definitely had more than a few chances, but you can't live on thin air, else they'd still be here (doesn't make it feel any better though).
