This is a Bryster out of another heifer this morning

Hope Bryster is good as he been made out to be, just bought a lot of sexed straws of him this week

 

[s line]

They look a bit off calving

September 1st they start. When they first come into the parlour once they have calved they are normally very quiet. They don't forget what they have done this week..

Sold with tb. To a couple of new sheds very close to you again.

Calving 2020? What month.exactly? Can you deal with the calves that are already in the pipe line?

Good that you can move the restricted calves. We just have to keep everything. Or start shooting.

Used a fair bit of him last year sexed on heifers but used sem 17 on anything sired by Chad. Just bought another 50 sexed straws to use this year

What do you do with this ? Calves were in here, after grass, gave a lot of it a good eating but where they lid and where they dunged there's a nice bit left. Only milking cows and calves on the platform. That's it topped. And it's raining, with rain for the week.

Would of left it standing. Two weeks time three bales acre.
Stick cows in there tonight.

Standing wasn't an option, will need it again in 3 weeks.

Top it again to mulch it?

 

[The Agrarian]

Probably could have grouped it and baked. But it's cut now. It could be left as is. In three weeks time it'll never be seen.

Cows went into it, 12 cows to the acre, came back out the gate after an hour. They decided that it wasn't for them

I couldn't do it to them! Plus,if you left me hungry enough I'd eat mouldy bread, but it wouldn't do me any good.
