  1. Care of Our Farm Animals

    Share Share Post
    Our cows have got names. Some of them are called Bawny, Dearg, Maugha, Magpie, Browny. When driving them in or out of a field we say "how how". Our cows are tied by chains which are tied around their necks. When people want to call the hens they say "tuk tuk".
