Was quite unusual to find a brown and white belted Galloway this morning, even more so when a second one popped out, black and white this time

Cows seem happy with starting a new field this morning, hope they remember where the robot is

Grass like that is a distant memory now !

Has anyone tried a probiotic teat spray? I've heard good things about them but can't find anyone selling them. Always like to try something new...

Pre mowing what was silage ground.

23 days after 1st cut!

I worship this field in the winter for being so sandy you can travel any day with a tanker and not leave a mark.

It gets balanced up in dry weather though.

You wouldn't trust that reading either

The stubble read 2115 straight after mowing, which I thought was a bit 'safe' by the contractor.

Robot farm? Just wide enough for two cows to pass one another.

Yep correct.
That is a spur. Ring main track will be wide enough and deep enough to take wheeled traffic.
6 mile haul of own stone. 5 dump trailers 14 tonner digging and loading. 8 tonner making tracks.

Sounds expensive! We were lucky in having hard slate stone and soft sandstone on farm.

Hopefully the end of the streak of endurance bull calves

No idea! Got one out of a Holstein which is very fleshy at 2 years old but slow to grow stature wise
