Spy cow. My mission: report on my progress, using sensors such as a pedometer, rumen bolus, weather station, grass recordings, Protrack, MINDA and more!

@shaunconnor79 @LICnz I'm good! I just been busy trying to squeeze milk out! I made a nice mini-me last year, pregnant again now. :)

[Agent 186 @agent_186]

All dried off now, farm did 140k ms with 330 cows this season. I'm off to hibernate thru the winter, back next season. Thanks for tuning in!

[Agent 186 @agent_186]

Nothing too exciting happening at the moment at the farm. Just plodding along. Drying off at the end of the month though :(

[Agent 186 @agent_186]

Afternoon milking earlier today, almost my turn!

[Agent 186 @agent_186]

Only 15.6mm of rain so far with the storm, wind is gusting to 52km/h out on the farm. I'm worried I'll get blown away! #weather

Woohoo 54mm of rain on the farm in the last 24 hours. Hopefully this will make the grass taste good! #weather

Why did the cow wear a bell?

Because her horn did not work.
