Sheep and beef farming in West Sussex

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@Wyefarm Well I think I’m early putting in spring barley mid February. Wow your keen

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@TimGue1 @PhilNash2 @Appleton_Dairy @molevalley @FramFarmers It’s not just you, iv had it with them. They don’t carry any stock and it takes them a week to get anything. ACT haven’t let me down yet.

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@KerinPollMerino What is your normal yearly rainfall, and have you ever had a year as wet as this before. Or is this literally a one off.

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@TimGue1 Those sheep you moved yesterday would look better on that than in the brooks.

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@MountHesse I can see it’s chicory and white clover but what variety of grass is it

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@RhidianGlyn I can’t believe how bad they are now.

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@DavidLincolnred Wow. They've changed

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@vaxsupport Can someone please help me. Where are the screws to screw the handle on. Where are they hidden?

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@VaxUK Iv tried your support live chat but that appears to be next to useless, so I thought I’d try here instead. All I’m looking for are the screws that screw on the handle. Where are the hidden?

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

On top of the world, looking down on the Brighton sea front

On a normal year I don’t think I’d ever bother with this little wisp. But this year is very different #nograss #haymaking

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

And so the long six months begins! Roll on April #sussexcows

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

@IanDHorsley I wish mine would grow like that. Did you get any rain in the summer

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

Rain holding off while we drench and footbath ewe lambs #sheep365

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

At times like this you think waterproofs might of been a good idea #southdowns #goingtogetwet

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

On a mission. #sheep365 #southdownsnationalpark #roadrunners

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

10 days until the start of #calving19 bring it on #sussexcattle

[Southdowns Farmer @DownlandFarm]

Last few and that’s it for today
