In December of last year, Merchen Farms in Oklahoma had a delightful surprise in their livestock – a charming calf with a heart-shaped marking on her head. This adorable little one, aptly named Cupid, has captured the hearts of people all over the internet. The photos of the red calf with a white heart on her forehead have garnered so much attention that some individuals have even contacted the farm with hopes of purchasing her.
According to Casey Merchen, one of the owners of Cupid, the heart-shaped spot on the calf’s head developed gradually over time, as reported by USA Today.
The farmer shared with us the intriguing story of a red angus cow who consistently gives birth to calves with a unique white dot on their heads. Despite her lack of visible markings, the cow’s offspring never fail to display this distinctive feature. During their regular nightly check, the farmer and his team made a delightful discovery – the white dot on the latest calf’s head was gradually forming the shape of a heart.
Merchen Farms recently shared some heartwarming snapshots on Facebook, showcasing an irresistibly cute calf adorned with a delightful heart-shaped patch on her head. Unsurprisingly, this endearing bovine has captured the spotlight, captivating the hearts of many. How is Cupid, the beloved calf, adjusting to her sudden rise to stardom?
Casey joked to USA Today, saying, “I was telling Cupid that she had taken the internet by storm, but she didn’t seem to care too much.”
Fingers crossed that this adorable calf, with a unique heart-shaped spot on her head, will grow up to be a joyful and thriving cow!
