[QUOTE="Happy hillbily, post: 7936734, member: 3475"] It's the same here, not much spare time in the day after you have done all the day to day chores, then when something goes wrong you lose time sorting that out, then your chores back up, then before you realise your on a downward spiral not getting very much done. Then your chasing your tail like there's no tommorow. I've the new shed up, but I've still got 21 heifers out as i can't get the time to plumb the water troughs in, same with my young 8 week old heifers, can't move them on ( no water in the new shed) so I've young calves in the new shed on buckets in big pens, but it takes longer to feed them than in the individual pens. Getting trades on farm is almost impossible, I'm waiting for plumbers and electricians for over 12 months, everyone's too busy. I've managed to get the local garden maintenance guy to give me a hand in a week or so (ex army and ex farmworker) so hopefully shall get the plumbing sorted in a couple of days, and heifers in. Will get the vet technician to dehorn the heifers, then hopefully I can concentrate on what pays the bills ! [/QUOTE]
