[QUOTE="andybk, post: 8037804, member: 347"] Yep , around 150 pure charollais ewes (selling rams off farm ) 25 zwartbles , plus followers ,most lambs kept 12months at least , farming 120ac some rented , some free (cant be farmed properly but kept tidy ) we own the farm and buildings , run on landlords cover / catch crops over winter and neighbours ex dairy grass till feb , Not a big income but enough to invest a bit every year in old kit lol . All machinery and maintenance done in house (built my own house ) , been doing the same since 1980s , Edit : we did used to run 100 poll dorset x charollais for early lambing in nov , and 400 shb ewes for march lambing all put back to charollais or suff , but was difficult with MV accreditation and management of best grass for ram production.
