Robotic milking

If you already had one robot, some of the cows should be partially trained? Should make things a little bit easier.

Imagine knowing your way around crystal/configurator would help aswell, some of the default settings we had from start up screwed us, worst was the OOPFs wouldn’t feed cows if they were within 6 hours of needing to be milking in the robots!

Yes. Made a big difference as set up was straight forward. I did miss a couple of tag id's but the very sharp fullwood team were quick to remedy.
The shed is almost relaxed this morning..! My wife is frying some bacon up in here too at the moment..which is heaven..

ahhh.. i'm so tired.! Joz scraper arrived yesterday, installation begins today.

Delighted with performace of all machinery after little niggles sorted. But managing a shed this size on your own at start-up is very demanding. My wife joined me for the day yesterday and the ealry hours amongst the cows which helped hugely.

But

I need new wellies..

and .. mobile phones, pockets and slatts.. it isnt going to end well..
