For a few years now we have been thinking about purchasing cameras to set up for calving. Last spring a few people told us how the price had come down on them but still never did check into it. Then.......calving started and it was -25 and we made the decision to purchase. After last night I know they are payed for!!! A cow started to calve so I asked my daughter to watch her while I did chores. It was not even 10 minutes and she called my cell."Dad hurry Princess calved and the head is covered yet!!!!" I ran and met Kim who was running from the house and just got there before me. This is the second calf that I know we would of lost this year the same way. We actually got the camera's because at times I am gone for work for 48 hrs and my wife calves the cows by herself. I can fall asleep no problem after checking cows but she would be lucky to get 3 or 4 hrs of sleep a night in the cold weather.I think that everyone that leaves their wife at home to calve cows should buy them!!!!!!
