farmer girl I have noticed some of your mother cows have horns, do you have problems with wolves?

It's not a big problem here yet for cattle, but huge for sheep, goats. But wolves population is getting bigger each year. We never dehorned, so those who are polled they are genetically. It would be an issue if they were kept in the barn during winter though.

Think they’ve got enough grass?

Too much really do they can stay 72 hours in this section to knock it back a bit

Ended up with all 3 bulls being new ones this year. All out to cows/heifers on Thursday.
Still got 1 old boy as back up. Sorely tempted to give him a run before young Char but hoping I won’t need him for another 3-4 weeks & by choice rather than necessity!!

Last cow calved a couple of days ago.
Nice Sim heifer. Crossed with a donkey

Thankfully, That’ll be it till autumn calvers start late September
