Farm Family Opens Home to Cold Calf

The Sorrell family brought newborn calf Sally indoors during single-digit temperatures to prevent frostbite after losing a calf last winter, then returned her to her mother the next day.

  • Last week, the family in Mount Sterling, Kentucky brought a newborn calf indoors during a deep freeze to warm her, then returned her to her mother the next morning.
  • Because the family had lost a calf last winter to frostbite, the Sorrells say they sometimes bring farm animals indoors for protection.
  • Using a blow dryer, the family warmed the newborn and restored her fluff, while Macey Sorrell said the umbilical cord `looked like a popsicle`.
  • After one night indoors, the family returned the calf to its mother, and Sally was named by the family, according to their statement.
  • Macey Sorrell said she almost didn't share the photo of the children cuddling with the calf, highlighting the private nature of the moment.
