[QUOTE="beefandsleep, post: 5146542, member: 4148"] Certainly not but assuming everyone farms in the same way on similar land with the same type of stock and therefore must be making work for themselves or doing something wrong for working 3 hrs a day over the weekend is a wee bit arrogant isn’t it? If you don’t spend at least a couple of hrs checking 1600 ewes and lambs every day I’m quite surprised actually. Would you mind me asking if you work weekends at lambing and calving? I’m sure you wouldn’t dream of asking staff to help in the lambing shed on Sunday morning. Average out those hrs. But I’m sure that’s different, it’s only 3 months if the year! And harvest and drilling, silaging. I might be small scale in feeding terms but I don’t see why 400 feeding cattle should get any less attention than 4000. Attention to detail is vital in any well run business and locking the yard gate on Friday evening and strolling in at 8 on a Monday morning will never be acceptable here thanks. [/QUOTE]
