Birdsong Farm's "Fancy" family is the newest cow family on the farm, and was started with the addition of Gaymar Astro Fancier SUP-EX 90-3E in the autumn of 2012. Fancier arrived at Birdsong Farm with chronic mastitis and after testing I discovered that it was caused by Staph aureus, so in 2015 I made the decision to dry her off and flush her. The flush was a success, with two heifers to carry on the Fancy family name.
There are three cows and heifers in the Fancy family: Gaymar Astro Fancier SUP-EX 90-3E (died in 2018), Birdsong Sweet Summertime, and Birdsong Gypsy Moon.
