Scanning And Selling Cows
In this video we have eight cows that we need to be scanned to see if they are pregnant. This means the vet is in, going through them one by one. Those that are not in calf we send away to be sold, although, this is easier said than done. We have a bit of trouble trying the get the cows loaded on the float, but eventually manage. We load up Rae ourselves and Rosie and Doug take him in to be sold as well. Lastly, we talk about the price we got for the cows and the bull.

Tupping Time!
Переглядів 754Місяць тому
In this video Rosie starts off by explaining how the blackie tup jumped in with the correct group of girls, just two days sooner than he should have. Therefore, she popped in the cheviot tups a day later so he wouldn't get too much of a head start. First she opens the gate down by the river to allow one group of ewes onto fresh grazing, kept for tupping time. Next, Rosie, Doug and Sue check the...

Once all the girls have had their jags, we move them inside as well, but opposite the calves. Rosie picks the video back u...

Sorting Through Our Ewes And Ewe Lambs
Переглядів 1,7 тис.3 місяці тому
In this video we bring in the second half of our flock and go through them, taking off red heads, ewe lambs, and pink tags. The healthy ewes went back over to the other side of the farm. As there wasn't as many pink tags as we thought, we decided to keep them rather than sell them. We tagged the ewe lambs and kept them with the cull ewes. We then pick up the video again when we are shedding off...

Hello brother I need farm job am hard worker with tractor driver

No gloves 😮
😂
First
Good video nice scenery in the snow but I bet it's so cold the cattle seem healthy and happy 👍 PS just wondering which tractor do you like the most the Class or the Valtra
Thank you! ☺️ I like them both, I like the electronic handbrake in the Valtra but I like the hitch extension on the Claas, so they both have pros and cons, and it's good having a bigger and smaller tractors depending on the jobs your doing. Also in case one doesn't work, you always have a back up one.
The Place is Called Amabeere Ga Nyina Mwiru,
My Home The Beautiful Tooro
Good job , combinex maybe not the best , did you need a wormer ? and levamisole not ideal at this time of year . Ewe lambs look in good fettle
Thank you! yes we did need a wormer, fluke was a concern as they had been on boggy ground and it has been a mild and wet winter so far. Hope you had a good Christmas and New Year.
have a good one
Merry Christmas

Nice job Rosie, great video, always an exciting time when the Tups (Rams) go in with the sheep.
Thank you, it is indeed!
Great video 👌

Good video your ewes were quite well covered which would have helped the price do you keep your ewe lambs for replacements or do you buy hoggets market
Yes we keep back our ewe lambs for replacements - usually about 200 or so
Hello can you make a lambing assistance video? With your girlfriend assist lambing?
Yes 🙌🏼
Surprised at the tup price for the lame one as part of the trio . Just because the tri axle can take 50 doesn't mean you should , you were probably up to a tonne over weight , and while you may not ever get pulled in it can happen , I got pulled in twice by Vosa on the way to Stirling mart
Good video we used to have a similar set up for grain but now just buy a blend for the cattle and sheep from a feed merchant much handier
Yeah, we found buying in feed was definitely more viable for our system 👍🏼 Although, we do like the idea of being self-sufficient by growing your own feed 🍠
Space for a rugby game in there
Hahaha, bit sore on the knees maybe
Good job , it always gives you pleasure when you finish a job you've been planning for a while
Thank you! 🙏 Definitely does, you could tell by the smile on my face haha 😁

Ahahahaaha love to see you two thriving. Sending love from France ❣️
Hahaha missing you bro! Got some more fences I could do with a hand with 😉
Great video and nice cows and calves you bought good luck with them 🍀👌
Thanks Gary! Yeah they’re getting on great 😁
Beautiful cos and calves, guys. Good luck and health to them all.
Thank you! Yeah they’re doing well, calves are starting to fill out a wee bit 👌🏼
Nice young cows and all experienced so easier for you next year , you need to be hard at culling to make a profit , any thing not in calf needs to go no matter its age or how nice it is same for needing help to calve more than once . You can keep a simple diary with 1-5 for ease of calving and same for temperament and NEVER keep a heifer out of a high scoring cow , then at weaning a score for how well the calf has done , giving an idea of how good a milker the mother is . Are you keeping any heifers out of the new calves for breeding ??
Very nice cattle hope they do well for you 👍
Thank you 😁
