Hey everyone, In this video we might see a few things that haven’t come out on video yet 🤫😬 Can we turn a blind eye the then 🙈 Im just half way though a video with them as want to see some results in the full video… will be out soon ☺️ Hope your all doing well! 🙌

@patrickgolden4834 Год назад

Fair play to you Tom for all the hard work , have you tried putting in the round bales with the shear grab , just to split them up and spread them out a little more for the cows

@35manning Год назад

If you are cold, they are cold. Bring them inside and heat them up. I prefer medium rare...

@KevinJD2030 Год назад

They really hate it if it rains a little they prefer to get inside if it's sunny they want to get out and they let you know when they wanna get out😂😂 we also got them in all week because it's too wet........ It's a shame but you can't change the weather

@Ben-fk9ey Год назад

I think there's a big distinction between cows living under a shed roof their entire lives and cows wintering in sheds or coming in when the weather is bad. Cows should be outside weather permitting.

@KevinJD2030 Год назад

@@Ben-fk9ey there definitely is a difference. I also think they should come outside when the weather and ground conditions are permitting it. I really like it when they're outside.

@mea3665 Год назад

Cows should be outside its the weather that's not cooperating

@meghanplamondon8639 Год назад

Thanks Tom for sharing this video….since I’m in no way a farm girl, I had no idea that it could be too wet outside for cows and they wouldn’t like to eat wet grass! I figured they live outside a good part of the year so they’d be used to rain ( less flies maybe too) and that wet grass would hydrate them at the same time. I’ve learned something today, and I thank you. Your cows look nice and comfy inside and it’s thanks to you listening to what the cows are showing you what they need and want. Good on you. ❤️👍

@lindaarmstrongjackman9788 Год назад

Rain,Rain , go away! Hope you get the weather you need. 😊 Glad the cows are enjoying last year’s second cut bales when it us so damp and dreary out in the pasture. Loved your “Kate Moss” moment. Love to you and Joanna. 😊❤️👍👍

Those McHale spike grabs are also great for spreading bales about as you can widen/close them to break the bale up in the feeding passage.

@annebell7274 Год назад

You and Luke make a great team. As for the weather I sympathise. We're puddle hopping up in Scotland. Great channel Tom 😃😃😃👍👍👍

@tucobenedicto109 Год назад

I think that's great. It's wet the ground will get crazy hoof prints then you don't want a cow stuck. The rain will help the grass grow for more grazing. Using those values of hay is a great idea. The fact of the new shed is that you can house all of them. And it's comfy.

@moreteavicaruk1958 Год назад

@jamesmarsh4957 Год назад

your so right to let them come inside in this weather , i fully agree , if they not happy they don't milk , you have the set up now and its not damaging the grazing grounds , it will come dry again so good the keep the grazing for later , you would never have done this with the old set up

@AlleyCat-1 Год назад

My cow's are roughly 50/50 when it comes to wet weather & using shelter. It's good to see cow's happy to be in out of the wet weather. I really wish we had that problem. We are so dry in my area on top of the inability to irrigate. Fall is starting here too. Morning sun is taking longer to come up 😢. Not ready for the cold. Keep up the good work everywhere, including the video's 😊. I bet Luke is happy with cleaner cow's too. 😅

@GotAnUmbrella Год назад

I know you will be happy when the new parlor is done, but can you imagine how happy the cows will be with the bail out of the shed? SO much more room to spread out and do fun things. And of course, the new parlor is more efficient which leaves more time for doing cow stuff.

@TheZepp01 Год назад

Hi Tom, the worst thing to do is double handle hay, but as you know things don't always go to plan. There is many countries complaining about the amount of rain they have had in July, so there is lots of unhappy farmers. It's funny how your dad hears you but still stacks the bales his way. Your cows are being very cheeky and they just love being inside with loads of feed. When are you going to show us the work going on in the background, the suspense is killy me? Another great video as always. Chris from Australia 🇦🇺.

@jamesmullane4668 Год назад

@matthewrodgers2360 Год назад

You are doing the right thing. The grass won't waste in the field, when it is dryer make silage!!

@philipasbury9173 Год назад

I was glad of the rain in July until about the 25, won’t deny my grassland needs a dry spell to get the dry matter and sunshine to improve the sugars. You use what’s available and what makes sense at the time to feed your cows and work with what’s in front of you . Heavy Cheshire clay here but have the infrastructure to keep grazing pretty much February to December . Keep pushing on , lots to look forward too and your enthusiasm and energy is inspiring 👍

As for items we havnt seen 😉 looking forward to them videos. Great video again mate

@Beefy2203 Год назад

Tom, little known switch on newer Manitou Teles is that they have an override switch (for very occasional use ahem 😜) which allows you to over ride the load indicator, very handy for getting out of sticky situations. It’s normally situated on left hand side of seat, next to DPF regen button (if it’s got a DPF). I currently have a MT1440 A (14m boom and 4 tonne capacity) and a MRT 3050 (Manitou Rotating Telehandler, 30m boom and 5 tonne capacity). Probably going to upset some but find the Manitou’s much better machines than the JCB Loadalls.

@martinclifford9544 Год назад

It's times like these when a paddock system with proper road network would begin to pay off. The minute you start offering silage in the yard, you can forget about grazing out fields properly

Once we put in free stalls the cows just would go out for a short time for exercise and then they would come back in. They would not eat much when out on pasture as they preferred the TMR ration. I preferred them eating the TMR ration as I then knew exactly what they were eating each day. They would drop in production when out on grass.

@alanwallace8095 Год назад

Hi Tom, in this country you can never have enough space under a roof. I’m sure you will see a great benefit when you get the roof over your silos, but another roof for storing bales, either hay or straw so you don’t have to keep moving them would be a good investment. Unfortunately in farming it’s hard to see the returns for any investment these days.
