If I gave a penny for your thoughts I would be given change backso you'd rather wait for a contractor to turn up when he wants rather than use your own gear to bale it at the right time?
What's that surposed to mean
Some days I love my cows
Today is not one of those days
That’s the day f***edSome days I love my cows

Could be worse, no one is dead or injured so no point in stressing about it nowThat’s the day f***ed

I should add, 200 ish cows, about half in calf for autumn block, so about 100 to go at.Got 5 beef bulls to go into herd, they haven't been mixed and all separate at the moment...
Run them in singles and swap every couple of days? Or pairs and swap every few days?
Always been of the opinion 1 bull working is better than 2 fighting, but...
Cover the bulls in vinegar. Mix them together, no fighting. Run in pairsGot 5 beef bulls to go into herd, they haven't been mixed and all separate at the moment...

Exactly, annoying but not the end of the worldBingo
bit of a shitter but one of those things. Solar fencer maybe a good bet? Or two wires on a difference fencer?
Your farm should of been legally tested and approved befor the start of your fbt agreement, by you landlord and certificate should of been given to your agent. TFA would be worth speaking to, also no gates onto a silage pit would be a dilapidation I would expect my agent to off sorted.Exactly, annoying but not the end of the world
I'm trying my best to get everything sorted but it all takes time and money, I've paid for the farm (excluding the parlour and bulk tank which are fine) to be rewired because the electrics are genuinely scary at the moment For instance you have to turn the dirty water pump on with a dry piece of alkathene pipe otherwise you will probably get electrocuted. I got electrocuted twice the other day when dehorning calves because I forgot which out of the 3 sockets was ok to use and which of the others will shock you
I thought you were having me on but no, a quick Google and whaddyaknow!Cover the bulls in vinegar.
If you rely on an electric fencer so much use a 12v one and connect the battery to a trickle charger.Exactly, annoying but not the end of the world

Where is the hill/village top left of your picture?Second cut coming in nicely
Why are you having to pay for rewiring? Surely the landlord has a legal responsibility to sort it out? If it was a domestic house the wiring/boiler etc have to all pass regular safety checks.
They had the house tested but the electrician told me at the time that commercial properties don't need to be done?Your farm should of been legally tested and approved befor the start of your fbt agreement, by you landlord and certificate should of been given to your agent.
