Amos was born August 11, 2008 so he is in the prime of his breeding life. He is the father to Greta & Virginia, 2 of the heifer calves from 2011 and will be the father to all the calves born here on the farm in 2012. As you can see from the picture, Amos is a very impressive looking bull :)

All the Milking Devons here on the farm have chains on their necks with a numbered tag. This not only makes for easy identification out in the pasture but allows us to catch hold of them easily when we need to look at them, milk them etc. They are used to wearing these "necklaces" so it is far less stressful for them than putting something on them just when we need to handle them. Amos's Tag Number is 12.

Amos is registered with the American Milking Devon Cattle Association (AMDCA).
