In parlour tail clipping service

[monkeydog]

just picking your brians here, would there be a demand for a tail clipping service done in the parlour during milking times?

 

[Rossymons]

No.

 

[monkeydog]

why do you think not, would be done with a clipper using a belt battery and cleared up behind me

 

[Rossymons]

Or I can just use my scissors whilst i'm waiting for the cups to come off.

We've got our own clippers and do it ourselves when it's convenient so we would have no real need

^^^ This.

Clip my cows twice a year, round the time they're turnout and when they come back for the winter, both tails and brands and do it when it's convenient for me and them

By the time I pay for an app to help manage my cows, and then pay Somone to clip their tails I'm going to need 30p.

The op if you want to get into cow grooming, speak to your local mart, I believe our local mart has a team of cow polishers they can call on for the sales.

Thinking logically, if you have the time available, clippers and a suitable crush it might be worthwhile looking into the viability of offering a pre-slaughter clipping service.

Or if you have time to stand in a parlour pit, and are looking for extra income....leave the clippers at home and put some cups on.
