U will be going through all the dreaded ongoing outgoing valuation episode, it horrible for the ongoing tenant not knowing what capital they need, and blumin hard work for the out going tenant trying to budget what they will come out with to move on with. Ours was done 4 years ago, today and the agents still can't sort it out
its hard work trying to build a business not knowing what borrowing are needed for what!when we went back in, the 'first' pick-up, was 375 litres, mainly beef hfrs/cows, 5 milkings, but we kept quiet on that x5, but it was a very satisfying experience, watching the metre on the lorry, going round, the culmination of a lot of very hard work.
A bit spread out at the minute but a strong spring bias, probably 2/3 have calved or are due between february and May, then 11 calved in October/November and another 10-20ish are due between June and October
100%, nothing went according to plan on my side of things yesterday, sheep kept on escaping so had to bring them home which meant everyone who was meant to be helping me get moved in was tied up with those woolly idiots instead. Dad managed to drop of 2 ring feeders but that was all the help I got yesterday.
That's for let down, not production.
Having one of those days here. F ing rain.
It’s vile isn’t it,on the plus side next week is actually looking ok
That's farming at it best! Have a brew, new day tomorrow
RDA on a young cow here on Monday, calved on Nov 22 last year
Have you left the calf with her, even if you're bottling it (assuming it was alive? Nothing like a bit of mother's love sometimes to perk a cow up or put some milk on even if she wasn't interested when she calved.
No, It's under a heat lamp in the house, managing to stand and suck now after 2 days. Could try another calf on her, but would need to set somewhere up for them.
