Sudden Impact
Name: Sudden Impact
D.O.B.: Unknown
Origin: University of New Hampshire
This is a crotchety old beast. She’s just plain mean. She’s in the first stall of the barn, and if you walk by, keep an eye out - she’ll try to wack you with her head! If she can’t hit you with the top of her head, she’ll try to spear you with her nose. (Thus her name.) Failing that, if you go beside her, watch out for the tail, which she likes to keep wet and messy!
We got her as a bargain buy from a much bigger farm. Despite the fact that she gives a ton of milk, they decided she wasn’t worth the hassle…especially when she had hurt someone.
She’s gotten older, and a bit slower, while still being a great milker. We’ve been putting her outside this spring and she’s been behaving herself…for the most part!
