As predicted in my last posting , semen from Chloanne Gallagher is NOW AVAILABLE from Cogent Breeding Ltd. Contact them on 0800 783 7258 or email: info@cogentuk.com.
As i sit writing this , the weather is being especially kind to us at the moment,and in actual fact a few small showers of rain wouldn't go a miss. Yields are still on the low side at the moment and we have been advised that it is more dry matter that the cows need . This is easier said than done and despite my best efforts, they are starting to turn their noses up at the prospect of eating big bale silage and straw.
We are now fully onto the PACE / MECH FIBRE way of feeding using our new KEENAN diet feeder. It's amazing and frightening just how much information is available at your fingertips to help monitor just how the cows are performing.
On the cow side of things , Frankham Sept Storm Ethel is finally in calf . it has taken a while but with the end result an Alexander pregnancy , all is good !
The three cows who were flushed have all settled down and are in fact in season today , I plan to AI them tonight.
Silage time is fast approaching and with any luck we should be starting to cut next week.
