The weekend's forecast has put an end to my out-out prospects but no harm done...2 days grazing got and back in before the worst of it. On the bright side, at least they know their way to the field for when things pick up again 😆
Not sure who is happier to be out the cows or Stephen 😅 first of the cows got their lepto booster, all sure bolus and tail paint today hopefully more to follow tomorrow. Bulling heifers enjoying the sun on their backs and a start made on reseeding #Newforddemo
Class of '24 at #NewfordDemo are doing well and glad to have a good bed of straw under them on days like today 🌧️
