One year of life from the lambs sacrifice means that their family herd keeps existing for many years.

18 months of life for the heifer while short was safe and prosperous which counts for much.

Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against veal or lamb. Just poking a bit of fun at the term "raised" for a cut of meat purposely butchered from (sometimes very) young animals.

My understanding is most veal calves are slaughtered between 20-24 weeks. Not exactly a lot of time to be raised. Admittedly Lamb is closer to 1 year before slaughter.

Sub adult age.

She had to go because she was bought as a paddock mate and we needed the grass for the newly weaned angus heifers I'm raising as a cash crop.

Always sad to say goodbye to our animals. I said my prayers and got on with life thankful for the extra 100kg of beef in our freezer
