![My farm raised lamb and veal [3840x2160 - 803KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/mTimtR.jpg){kind=link}
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
