  • In this video, I am milking our cows in our 3 unit parlour. I show you the milking routine from getting ready to milk the cows to washing out at the end. We are currently milking 30 cows.

    This reminds me so much of when I started milking cows in the mid 80s when I was 14. It was an abreast gasgione parlour which milked 4 at a time and I milked about 35 cows. I milked every evening after shool and Am and PM at weekends. I later went on to milk 200 cows on a big farm at the time as assistant herdsman but diddent enjoy that as much. Its great to see a small family farm working well and I am really enjoying your videos, well done.

    Enjoyed seeing your routine. You're a credit to the dairy industry. Long live the family farm and quality food produced with care.

    Another enjoyable video.
    The parlour radio is actually great companionship whilst working
    Much prefer these relaxing,more intimate parlours than the high tech ,mass milking parlours

    Bord Bia would close ye down if they saw those cats in the milking parlour lol. Think ye should dry wipe them with paper towel before milking to let down milk, used to wash them here for years all year round with rags, mistake I think. Is their some cows ye will not leave last? Panic with the chain.
