Turfed? Is that lay the turf in upside down before backfilling? Not heard of that before.

Weirdly the track looks straighter looking uphill than it does looking down.

last few days,
had very different helpers feeding the new calves
i hate cows, chewed the eletric fence wires servicing the farrowing pens
worked on the chicken pen, this 6' chicken wire is hateful stuff
OH accidentally bought ear tags with only the herd mark and no individual IDs, 'never mind that' i said
/rummages though assorted heaps of useful shite in the container/
Bjorn the micro-boar rolls over for a belly tickle once in a while....
that cat gets everywhere
training the boys pen to use the race (and come through a gate usually electrified), only takes one to two feeds for them to come flooding out as soon as you open it, makes selecting pigs and loading the trailer very easy, despite the free range nature of the farm
should have been a kitchen fitter in another life
and finally, fitted a new extractor fan for the cold store building, already it's gotten so hot in there it has tripped the freezer's high pressure alarm and switched it off It was 41C up there while i was replacing the fan , 25C after i got the new one running.
This beauty was brand new in it's box from my parent's farm, it has to be 20 years old. Good ol' farmer hoarding....

Not technically at work. Took the dogs for a walk this evening to see how the Barley was looking. Got them bloody soaked but seems to be progressing well
Cassia Barley. Best we have seen it look for some
Time.
The. Had a little
Walk through the spring Barley - didn't expect much with the dry weather but it has really come
On over the last couple of week! This is oddessy!

After finishing the 1st cut bale and wrap job at Dads I thought I'd see how the maize drilled 6 days ago was doing
Should see the rows tomorrow
So between the showers I decided to get the grass seed on as it'll be too late once I'm back from the trip.
Very happy with @Flat 10 's spreader for putting grass seed on - 10 acres sown in half an hour
It'll be interesting to see how it does under the maize. Even if it needs patching it'll save having to force a seedbed after maize in October to get the field back into grazing next year.

What you going to do with the seedbed after shaking the grass on, just leave it sitting on the top?
