[QUOTE="Kiwi Pete, post: 7543502, member: 63856"] I would have quartered 21 paddocks if they were all the same size and shape, I reckon. It wasn't going to work well with what we had in place, now glad (stoked in fact) that we just took it out, sold it off, and started over. Our land is just too "straightforward" not to go straight across and back! However we still won't be "done", what we intend to do is just keep a 20 metre tape with each mob so we can cut the 280 big cells in half, then they'll be 498m², same as the cow's system up the top. It'll give us the option to double it again for very little cost or hassle, swing the tape through to the next fence, and put a pigtail by the handle. Then there's always a drafting mechanism to hand (y) I love the idea of setstocked dairy herds though 🤣 sounds like a recipe for more lorries carting in the gate, than milk going out.. [/QUOTE]
