Just watched prize pen of mules sell at Thame on Facebook, anyone know what the idea is behind the old bloke stood in the middle wacking all the sheep with a stick the whole time? Looks like a bloody fairy farmer trying to get the low yielders in for milking … seems a backwards thing too be doing never mind putting on Facebook in this day and age with animal activists 🤦‍♂️

Did it chit or is it still sat there waiting for a bit of moisture? Estate here put in 300ha of rape a couple of weeks ago, it all chited after a shower but has burn off to nothing now.
No it didn’t chit, we were suppose to have rain that week but it went around us!! Not sure if it will come now though, we’ve had little spots of rain that maybe we’re enough for the seed to just crack and now maybe it’s burnt off!! I’ve been waiting for a downpour to see what happens but it doesn’t materialise!! I’ll just re-do with turnips if we ever get any rain again 🤷‍♂️

Just asking as a predominately sheep bloke with cattle 🤔🤔🤣

Pretty sure the chat will be better here tbh…….
Like all divorcees they’ll look over the fence and wonder if they did the right thing🤣🤣🤣🤣

Would of been better to have kept the price tracker as one and started a general livestock tittle-tattle thread imo
