What happened to that idea / ideal.??
Did one or two TFF members venture out there?
What was the outcome, are they still farming out there?
We have had 4 calves from our small suckler herd so far today, and looking like another overnight, so 5 in 24hrs.
A record for us. Certainly, Teddy has answered any questions on his fertility..... :-)
Set me wondering what numbers a Bull could service in a day...?
I would be most grateful for the collective wisdom on the following;
I have a 25ha field of thick spring oat volunteers courtesy of august storms. I sprayed it pre drilling wheat, but it didn't work well and the oats kept coming. It only got half drilled and that drowned. Anyway, it looks...

Three youngish fit ewes lambed last couple of days,two not opening up for lambing and all three not letting milk drop. Guessing a shortage of something but what?

All 3 tramlines in this field the same, 48m boom.

I’ve got a Texel shearling ewe due to lamb in 5 days, both her back legs have swollen up at exactly the same time and evenly down both legs feels very fluidy and wobbly, never seen this in sheep before.
Could it just be water retention and swelling pre lambing like some women get? any answers...
I put an IRG and brassicae mix in last year to give some late bite, anticipating burning it off in the Autumn and drilling a herbal ley (HL).
Owing to unforseen circumstances, I still have the IRG standing and now growing away... And no HL gone in! I was going to drill the HL next month, but...
So it's became very clear to me that there is 2 reasons why farmers don't like RT and assurance schemes-
1) They don't like the compliance and paperwork - Understandable it's not for everybody and it doesn't make you a better farmer.
