Well , that went fast , 7 days off , felt like 2, first time that i can honestly say that 2 weeks off would have been better .
Ethel still hasn't calved yet , getting nearer to her due date now , so won't be long.
I have ordered the semen that i intend to flush Chloanne Goldwyn Gracious to , he is Dalbytop Phil from Cogent, that was one of their recommendations , so , we'll see.
The milk yields have fallen dramatically this week , so if they don't increase by Monday , we will need to investigate and see just what the problem is.
will post a better update of herd later when i get back to work and see whats what !!!

I'm Back ! ! ! !
Been a while , i know , but been more busy than usual and also been busy on Facebook (ha ha ha)
The cows at Chloanne are doing fine and i am eagerly awaiting the next arrival.
Frankham Sept Stotm Ethel is due to calve on the 10th of June . She is in calf to Heather Holme Velvet and by the look of her , hopefully she will calf on time , or even a bit early.
Chloanne Goldwyn Gracious 2 is also due , anytime from the 10th of June too , as she was running with a bull , so it is just a waiting game for her, she doesn't look like she is goig to calve this month.
I am hopefully about to embark on a flushing programme for Chloanne Goldwyn Gracious , the dam of Chloanne Gallagher.
Hopefully this would result in another bull , which would be of interest to Cogent Breeding Ltd.
I will list the next calving dates soon .
Another advert appeared in this months Holstein Journal, just to promote the fact that Chloanne Gallagher is joining the Cogent stud.
I am on holiday this week (I know it's hard to believe), so hopefully i will have time to put a few new posts on ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
