Kilifi Plantations
It’s been a week now and I am still looking for a dairy cow that will provide milk for the boys at the centre. I have been asking local people and friends to direct me to farmers around Kikambala, Mtwapa and Vipingo area. Unfortunately most of the farmers this period don’t sell their cows. I went to the Kenya Agricultural Research Institute (KARI) and I thought that would be the best place but the officer told me that they weren’t selling either. He directed me to Kilifi Plantations which it is almost an hour from Kikambala.
Finally we got there and the officer told us that they sell dairy cows but the farms are far so we had to drove to see the cows. I was getting excited that we finally found dairy cows for sale and was looking forward to see the cows!
We arrived to the first farm, I look and I see hundreds of cows, I have never seen so many in my life! We had to ask lots of questions about them such as what breed they are, how old, how many births they gave, how much milk they are producing. After walking around to the rest of the farms the farmer took us to see the pregnant cows. There was one dairy cow which had only two births and was currently pregnant. David the worker/farmer from grandsons, who came with me to help me choose one, knew more about cows so he checked her and he told me that this is the one!
The officer gave us a record of the milk she had produced in the past, up to 14 liters a day, which means lots of milk for the boys in the future! Her name is Catamount and she will give birth next month so we will soon have a dairy cow and a little calf 
Happy ending, we drove back to Kikambala – not to mention we ran out of fuel on the way but that’s another story…
U didnt mention their prices and breeds…i give u 15%… :p
