@Jdunn55 iv expanded the herd,my new even more relaxed style from once a day to never a day milking😁View attachment 1043397
exeter today ? heard a fair few went to kill, yours look good, organic milk ?
when we restarted milking, milked our hfd cross hfrs, absolutely useless, which surprised us, but fat, protein and volume were pathetic, best part, they were quiet to milk some of the other x's and cows, were definitely unquiet to milk.
We milk a hfd x cow now, and she is absolutely solid. Have thought about buying some pures, and breed our own bulls, son is anti.
