    Five years after selling, I miss my cows but I do not miss the never ending running around and putting out one fire after another. Life after dairy is low stress and awesome

      ​@tinnie1835 I can promise you that there is life after Dairy. I miss my cows too, but I do not miss the headache that came with them. And I'll never give up the freedom of not having to take care of animals

    Hi Tom and Dad ( With the tash ) Thank you for making me feel so welcome yesterday. and great to meet you both and two of your highland cattle. I know my donation towards the new cow shed was only a drop in the ocean. But every little helps hey? Will be back up to see you fingers crossed in October. Glad you liked saying hello to my Malamutes. New pup safely picked up and got home at 1:30 am. That is what you call an epic trip. over 700 miles in 22 hours. Keep up with the awesome videos. :-)

      Thank you so much for all of the support and for wondering where I am. I'm still working at Pembertons, but decided to share a slice of my life online moving forward (mad for CrossFit).
      Super excited to start my 5-year Veterinary Science degree in September, so it's really important to have space/time to focus on my academics. I decided to therefore stop sharing my farming/veterinary journey online, as it is a huge step ahead of me with big changes to navigate offline without putting extra pressure on myself. I love farming, and always will.
      Grateful for all of the support on UA-cam for the past 2 years which have given me so much confidence moving forward, sure you'll see me again. Head down and working hard to qualify as a vet, but also lift big weights on the side (happy for you to come along if fitness interests you, but please don't expect any cows or vet school updates as I've made the decision to graft away without sharing that on a platform).
      Had the best time with Heidi.Vet, life will be crazy and stressful at university, so it's about finding sustainable healthy balance :D
      I hope this explains everything, no beef! A virtual step back, ready for a huge step forward.

    Second, how long is the grass good for? You covered last year's and 2 years ago. I am surprised it's not taken out and used.
    Third, just curious how much of the grass is wasted by blowing out of the trailer? I'm sure it's a small amount compared to what you are collecting but I'm also curious how much you think is not collected.

    Pardon my ignorance, but I've been following farming videos for a while. Some farms bale hay exclusively (with or without plastic wrap), some use silos although I understand they can have mechanical trouble , and some use covered piles or clamps as you call them. Is the choice a cultural/tradional thing or it is just different scales of operations? Is there no way to make a clamp where the oldest silage is unloaded first? Like one that's open at both ends? Or has an unloading auger at the back? Thanks for the videos.
