    I'll be nice! Just mind your P's and Q's:p

    Would sundry fixed costs be something like dog food if you have a sheepdog? A petty cash sort of thing. Think Greengrass is pretty much spot on with above.

    Do they have to be listed or are you just looking for the total? http://www.teagasc.ie/advisory/farm_management/epm/reports/Dairy.pdf

    I'm guessing things like a new wheelbarrow wheel, powerwasher fittings....;)

    Was off visiting relations in Dublin yesterday, OH intended doing shopping, well as always didn't happen (cow calving, tractor trouble), so off shopping today. Stopped in Riverfront in Virginia yesterday, lovely dinner. Stopped in fatted calf in glasson today, lovely too. Commented that's 2 days in a row we've treated ourselves to lovely meals. Reply was if you earned more we could!
    If any of you are peckish near either of these, stop off well worth

    First set of twins here in years. Bull and a heifer, she cleaned twice, does that mean that the heifer is not a freemartin?
    Debuded two calves this morning, checked them this afternoon, no problem, went over at 8pm and one of them was pumping blood. He was kicking himself where we debudded him. Tried the gas again to seal it but no joy. So out with flour, cotton wool and silage tape to apply and hold pressure. Hope it feckin works. Long day, thankfully all the money we make justifies the time.
    By the way whats a profit monitor? Never seen one of them around here!!!

    I think she has a better chance of being breedable than if there was one afterbirth but she still would have gotten a hefty amount of testosterone into her during development. Open to correction on that though.

    Nope Mac- I was wrong. Or at least not fully right :D
    Freemartinism is recognized as one of the most severe forms of sexual abnormality among cattle. This condition causes infertility in the female calves born twin to a male. When a heifer twin shares the uterus with a bull fetus, they also share the placental membranes connecting the fetuses with the dam. A joining of the placental membranes occurs at about the 40th day of pregnancy, and thereafter the fluids of the two fetuses are mixed. This causes exchange of blood and antigens carrying characteristics that are unique to each heifer and bull. When these antigens mix, they affect each other in a way that causes each to develop with some characteristics of the other sex. Although the male twin in this case is rarely affected by reduced fertility, in over 90 percent of the cases, the female twin is completely infertile.
