Lucky Lucy!
Posted on June 7, 2007 - Filed Under General
I would like you all to meet my LUCY.
LUCY is a Jersey X heifer that we rescued from a dairy farm that was getting rid of all their Jersey calves. Hubby was working on this dairy farm for a few weeks (that is a whole other story) and rang me up and told me that when I came to pick him up we would have an extra passenger.
When I first saw those beautiful big brown eyes I was sold (that’s Lucy’s big, brown eyes not Hubby’s).
So picture this, if you can…..
Here we are in my little Hyundai Hatchback car with a hog tied calf in the boot tootling off down the highway for our five hour drive home, and telling son in the back seat to keep an eye on her and to gently push her back down if she tried to stand up.
We reached the next town and decided to buy something for dinner…ended up at the KFC drive-through and was placing our order when Lucy let out an extremely loud Mooooooo….the look on the attendants face was priceless.
Thank goodness it wasn’t a Macdonald’s drive-through or my Lucy could have ended up as a happy meal!

Okay, now i just love Lucy ! the big eye’s & look at that tuft of hair on her head & her little fluffy ears. hey Patric, her toes look like ‘camel toe’ lol don’t tell her i said that or she will want to wear socks. shame you don’t have a bigger car so you can take her for nice drives now that she’s a big girl, how does she get on with smelly Scratch ? lol
What a beauty! I love cows, their eyes are so beautiful with those long eyelashes. I can fully imagine that you fell in love with her !:)
Oh, Lucy is gorgeous! I would have done the same thing in your shoes. What a picture you painted of that hilarious story!
she is beautiful! Those big brown eyes are a winner.
Oh my gawd — this is so funny. You’re kidding, right? I couldn’t get past the hog-tying stuff to begin with, but the KFC? I can only imagine. Sounds like something we would do — if we had a cow. And those eyes are gorgeous!
No Kelly I am not kidding..you will soon realize that I am not called the “MAD” goat lady for nothing. Madness is my middle name LOL
LMAO Oh dear Patric what a day! I always wondered how you came to have Lucy…what a lovely story.
[…] Lady. Don’t you just love that name? I found her in Bloggsville one day with her post on Lucky Lucy that had us truly hooting over the hilarity of it all. I can’t […]
