Keeping sucklers

Thanks for the positive reply (y) was expecting a lot of negative replys. What breed of cows have you got?
We run a herd of 35 pedigree simmentals with calves and a commercial herd of around 45 mixed as well as around 450 ewes. It just means we are always busy on weekends and holidays but we manage to keep on top of things, eventually hahahahahaha:D:D.
I didn't think you'd get any negative reply as we have all been in a similar boat at some stage.
As my granddad always told me, "mighty oak trees came from small acorns"(y)(y)
