    Accidents happen Andrew, you did well to spot it in time. At least you're going to put it to good use 🖒

    It’s happens mate, although it sticks in our mind afterwards!
    Looking forward to beating ya’s in the rugby this weekend 😜👍

    Feeding calves meal develops rumen lining (papillae) so more meal the better however this has to be weighed against cost as does weaning date. Early introduction to meal (8:1 concentrate to hay) promotes faster rumen development with less acetic acid production so earlier weaning.

    Don’t think that there will be a dairy anywhere that something similar has happened. At least you are able to use it for the calves. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    We used to red paint the penicillin cows across the hocks and down back legs to prevent that mistake.

    Andrew here in Ireland if I have a cow I need to Take up she is not with herd she comes in last I think it is best way you can get distracted as regard the calfs do not let out until they are 6 month of age archiving great results

    So in your experience the milk self preserves ok even with antibiotics in it for one month provided it is agitated ever day...?

    • @TheOnceADayFarmer
      @TheOnceADayFarmer  Рік тому

      It goes a bit like yoghurt but if you mix it with a bit of fresh milk it’s not to bad and the calves get used to it 👍

    • @svfproductions9520

      At least not if it's refrigerated or another option is a cooler is attached to the green tank then the milk will still be good for the calves

    No ice cream for you this month. Thats what my farther said to me when I forgot to put the milk pipe in the vat and half the milking went down the drain before it was noticed. That was in 1968

  • @peasant5612

    Yip insurance will cover that tanker
    However since you dumped it insurance will cover that anyway

  • @johnhughes2113

    It hapened to us ones cant remember the literage 40 yrs ago but luck had it our insurance paid, dad was in charge then he was keen to cover all events through ins, dont understand how you can store that milk and still feed, surely it sour cheese in a couple of weeks!!

  • @michaeldoyle6766

      It won't even make it to the factory as the Tankers test the milk as it's a penicillin / antibiotic test as if it fails the test the milk will stay in the Tanker as they will dump the milk

    • @gregsullivan8956
      @gregsullivan8956 Рік тому +1

      @mart7182 so if he feeds 150 liters a day, the milk will last about 21 days. That's nasty for the calves

    • @mart7182

    Hi Andrew, quick question. Is sour milk not a problem for your calves and would you need to warm that before feeding it?
    Great channel, picked up lots tips from you already. Thanks

    • @TheOnceADayFarmer
      @TheOnceADayFarmer  Рік тому

      Hey mate, seems to keep fine if you constantly stir it up, I have a pump in the tank and just turn it on everyday, I usually do add fresh milk in with it so its not so gluggy but calves dont mind

    Feeding calves meal develops rumen lining (papillae) so more meal the better however this has to be weighed against cost as does weaning date. Early introduction to meal (8:1 concentrate to hay) promotes faster rumen development with less acetic acid production so earlier weaning.
