Amanda Owen has issued a touching update from Ravenseat Farm after the sad stillbirth of one of her calves. A cow named Lily suffered a tragedy when her calf died during labour, but she has now become a mum again after a genius move from Amanda.The shepherdess shared the “gory” process as she explained she had removed the dead calf from Lily and covered another baby cow, named Stormy, with its skin.This, she explained, made Lily believe Stormy was actually hers, and she began to let her suckle.One week on, the two gentle creatures are now “inseparable”, according to Amanda.Alongside adorable photos of the mother-daughter duo, she wrote: “Lily & Stormy.“It’s nearly a week since the calf was fostered onto the cow that had the stillborn calf.“Now they are inseparable.”The adoption process with cows is not an easy one, and Amanda previously admitted she was grappling with how much to show her 190,000 followers."The best way of persuading Lily [cow] that Stormy the calf is her own is to use stillborn calf’s skin to disguise her,” she tweeted."It’s not an easy task to skin as wet & slippery with birth fluids but this should make it more successful."The 46-year-old continued: “Removal of the dead calf’s [sic] is not as gory as might be the expectation but nevertheless I’ve refrained from showing too much detail."Most important is that the tail remains complete as this is what the mother sniffs when the adoptee suckles.
