suckler cows back in

[sodbuster]

Winter grazing on roots with stubble run back or housed on silage etc the 700 nxt door?

All on straw fed silage. Same with me

You must be having the best spring in the country

It's been cold and wet but dried up nicely. Grass growing slowly. I don't have any silage shut up yet

We have a hay field that’s been under water since 27th Dec

Same here, field floods fairly often, spent a few hours clearing debris off it on the nice few days so it wouldn't go through the mower... now we are forecast 40mm rain on Monday so it will be flooded again

I was looking forward to the Sarn ploughing match watching it drying up nicely last week. Pitch inspection on Tuesday evening put paid to that and now, Saturday and match day, it is absolutely chucking it down. Right decision!

I came here because I thought this thread was about sucklers actually making money , "back in".

Held cattle in here due to TB test which we failed this week Was going to turn out some of the tested cattle yesterday but damp all day and the shite weather for Monday stopped that. Looks like calving is going to be shorter next year which won't necessarily be a bad thing.

Some of you guys must be on dry land! If we let our cattle out now would be like Glastonbury in 2 hours, raining as I type.

I was up A19 on Friday and it looks a lot dryer and greener than our part of West Yorkshire.

It’s pretty dry here, I’m having an exodus atm......we are doing well for grass but it’s cold today, need some heat

 

[Yale]

It’s not too bad here,been spreading slurry without making much of a mark,cows and calves doing OK,even going to miss the rain tomorrow.

We must all be good people here.

 

[ladycrofter]

Just thinking. OUT in many ways. OUT of haylage. OUT of grass.

 

[DRC]

Going to be only 4 degrees tomorrow

Going to be only 4 degrees tomorrow

But getting better after tomorrow, so i might chuck them back out on wed or Thursday. But will probably change by then.

Enough feed for one more week, then that's it, out you all go...!
