Hard to beat summer testing. No cleaning to do. No feeding to do just put them back in the field and close the gate. How will I get the rest of the day in.

Go to Dungannon for the next holstein sale and ask the farmers there. Never seen the like of it. Called for a few minutes. All heifers around 2400 gns and saw the first cow sold 3000gns. Left after that..no point staying.U could always get the last milk cheque into that creamery can ur fillin with all the money thats in milk that every1 keeps tellin me about.

Yes all out,even the calves. Running out of grass so dry cows in next week so I can keep the heifers out longer.well spread,biggest batch is 20everything still out grazing? Good job!
Well, the average culling rate is around 28% so that makes just under 4 yrs as a milker. It's probably system dependant though.How many make it to 4.
Summer? The hail was bouncing off my baldy head putting the coos out tonight. Felt sorry for them.Hard to beat summer testing. No cleaning to do. No feeding to do just put them back in the field and close the gate. How will I get the rest of the day in.

Tomorrow morning I’ll have no cows stuck in cubicles,no cows doing splits on slats and none lying in four inches of skitter at the front of the drinker.Mabe should let them stay in tonight
If every night is like that over winter ul not have much bother milkin as theyl all be in the dead lorry shortlyTomorrow morning I’ll have no cows stuck in cubicles,no cows doing splits on slats and none lying in four inches of skitter at the front of the drinker.
I’ll also have very little milk.
Used to do this but keep them out night and day now get on far better as they never look in ours had their last day grazing on Tuesday only was 70 of them and dried off 44 so they can graze what’s leftI keep the cows in at night all summer, so do all my neighbours, best thing I've done in years!
