Pickstocks Telford, a straight out of the robots pretty much.
This one was a bought in organic brown Swiss bought her fresh calved and 15 services later sold the damn thing.
The rest were killed as conventional as were converted, the bought in one was sold as organic.
From beggining of the day I had 100 surplus cows to sell. Then went down with tb, and turned a surplus stock into a forage deficit for 2019.
Pd heifers today as well.
66.4 % held to sync ai
10.4% mt which is too high but it is what it is
120 heifers to calve in 1st week hopefully.

One load from december and one from january. Didn’t sell any this month.
Divide price with 8,5 to get £ or 7,45 to get €.
Not in UK though.
Sorry to hear about the Tb job it's a barsteward!
Yep, a winter coming up with too many cows and calves to rear.

Cow shed scanning this morning. 2nd to 4th calvers.
How does sexcel compare to 4m?
Actually after this morning I’m going to have to take a look. Been more than happy with sexcel but only bought one lot of premier and he looks to have hit hard.

Surely that’s just life for you though? Really bad test?
You have my condolences though. I was just thinking to myself the other day do I hold out for kicking out time from the spring Calvers and risk being closed down before hand or pay a premium and buy something now
No not bad at all. 1 that was an ir. But only takes 1

Sadly it does but it’s even worse when you budget to milk x number of cows and then all of sudden they’re not there. I know one spring Calver is down 100-150 head on where he needs to be.
If she’s an IR retest for her only? Or cull her anyway

There's still time for 3 X 60 day test before you even start calving let alone winter.
