  • Hey guys, welcome back to another VLOG.
    It’s been a while since our last upload, but as some may know we have been working on a cattle station for the past 3 months. We’re on a station in North West QLD on 400 000 acres with 10 000 head of cattle.
    Hope you enjoy this little snippet into what we have been getting up to over the past 3 months. I know it’s a little choppy and we haven’t been able to include heapsss of information, but it’s pretty hard filming while working. Two weeks left of work and we’ll be back on the road exploring this beautiful country of ours!

      Thanks so much for watching :) yes such an awesome experience! Loving our time out here.
      They do have donga style single accomodation, so we just chose to put up our camper trailer and live in that while here (it's bigger than the rooms haha)

    Perhaps I would do fine living there. To me brahma are used to that climate. The arid landscape is the norm in that region and geez I wouldn't be afraid of 1 rat. But more the snake that it might lure. Or a million of his (rats') cousins if they get wind he has an easy life.

    • @piratepete4322
      @piratepete4322 2 роки тому +1

      Yes. Not much grass around the water points, which are few and far between. They get eaten out fairly quickly. Lots of good feed a few hours walk out. They eat their fill and then come into the water in the evening.

      @Doughy3205 5 місяців тому

      Mate if you’re still looking, they teach you everything you need to know more or less if you have prior info or experience it always helps but they’ll help you like an apprenticeship until you’ve got it down, and if you like being outside and don’t mind being dusty and sweaty then it’s pretty nice, but not something I’d go into for the rest of my life unless I owned the joint
