    This is probably my favourite Dairy Tour you have done to date. Everything was explained in such detail and also explained why it was done that way. So comfortable in front of the camera as well. You must really enjoy doing these as well. Living The Dream, what a great way to explain what you do, says a lot. Twenty days from today is also Christmas Eve folks, almost time to dig out your stockings.

    The Best setup I’ve seen, there may be better Technology/techniques now, but it was a Round spinning Milking Platform. When the Cows get on they take a Tiger Torch and Flame the Udder and clean off all the peach fuzz that holds onto 💩, then it’s cleaned and the Suction Setup is attached and Milking Begins and as One Cow is done when it comes around another Cow takes its place and the Cycle continues until every Cow is Milked.

    Going to start a list of terms, phrases and things that I didn't understand: :/
    - 'feeding grain in the robots'
    - 'more expensive at the robots'
    - 'grain robots'
    - colostrum (I looked it up - so if young calves get mother's milk immunity they are good; but it has to happen within the first four hours ? Why is that? Is it that is the period of possible onset of scours?) ref: ”If the cows have good immunity they provide good quality colostrum to their newborn calves. If those calves can get colostrum within the first four hours, they have good protection.”
