[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7191557, member: 63856"] Starting to get lambing again, there was a definite "halt" after the first cycle, I'm really looking forward to getting them back moving again. See all the little holes they're eating? 😒[ATTACH type="full"]915037[/ATTACH] It helps having set-stocking neighbours, as you can see over the boundary fence... it isn't really the direction we want to be heading in 🤭🤭 and it's a big motivator to get that density back up. I thought [USER=623]@exmoor dave[/USER] would like to see the pretty yellow flowers, that gorse was hit with the salt+vinegar treatment 4 years ago, and needs a respray now I think. I know it's only a symptom of a problem, but it doesn't look good from the street.[ATTACH type="full"]915039[/ATTACH] Got some extra tools today, anyway, another 41 to boost the calf mob to 90 head. Will need more yet, but it's a start. Don't look too bad:[ATTACH type="full"]915040[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]915041[/ATTACH] ... and they soon fitted in just fine. "How long does it take to train new animals to go under the fence with a pogo?" is an often-asked question. I think if you have a degree of continuity in your herds, then the 'old hands' just teach the new ones, certainly this is our experience. [ATTACH type="full"]915042[/ATTACH] Will be interesting to see how they are tomorrow afternoon. [/QUOTE]
