Would the animals' welfare not be better served by breeding towards reducing the need for constant supervision to avoid 'a calamity'? I could be wrong but some of those revelling in the need for roaming fields/stalking sheds at night are also those who apparently make less than minimum wage?Good way to end up bust if a young person just starting out lived by that ethos. I pretty much lockdown for 3 mths when calving, i know for sure if i went out or off i would come home to a calamity. Your either dedicated or your not. I have enough problems without inviting more.

I couldn’t agree more! Iv put 10-11 months of work into preparing for lambing and at the end of the day my life is on the line as much as any potential lambs life and I’ll do anything physically possibly too make sure as many of those Wolly little barstewards make it out alive so I can pay my mortgageI seem to earn less than minimum wage whatever I’m doing!
I think the cost of a cow and all the rest involved it’s just common sense to be around to assist a cow or heifer when she’s on calving. Any losses are a year wasted at least and then there’s a fat cow to deal with next time possibly mastitis too otherwise set a calf on.
