Just after an inspection, tags and cross compliance. All grand except one cow with both tags missing but is freezebranded and a few missing one tag. I must order a few tags for cows missing half a tag again and keep them spare for when they're lost.


I got given out to for not having a yard scraped but I would normally scrape it after lunch and he laughed when I told him that.


More fecking tags to order now:rolleyes:

Is it still possible to get “rescue hens” ? Aunt got them but she’s in Meath

If they’re trained to do that I’d say they would be very expensive and hard to get your hands on.

Yes you can but they can/do come with problems and bullying (each other) is the most common as well as not knowing how to roost. Here is a link to their website and they have a facebook page too. At this time of year they would need a heat lamp until their feathers grow back.

There's a bit more about them on the Smallholder forum.

I’m in Meath aswell. Dunno about rescue hens tbh, we just have surplus.

Because I was using a knife...not a Stanley knife...and carrying an open knife in your pocket is supposed to be a bad idea lol. Also I relaxed over the last couple of weeks and forgot what dad is like!!! I'll have to start using the Stanley again!!

The vegan society are well drilled, communicate well, plenty funding and are focusing on the 13 - ~30 ish group. I’ve no problem with vegans but god help me it’s all the other shyte they attach to it. They unfortunately are just another threat to the beef industry and reflect just how removed most people are from where their food comes from.

The comment that all farmers can grow crops is laughable given we have ground that you’d struggle to put a pigtail into the ground:D

I would have liked to see the vegans being challenged on their food miles etc, where the funding comes from, etc etc.........

+1 on the above. I have a varied supply of folding knives, be they Stanley or a more traditional "pen knife". There left in whatever trousers I'm wearing and in all the vehicle's. When combined with some baler twine it amazing what can be accomplished if needed.

Fun fact of the day is tourism is responsible for nearly 8% of greenhouse gas emmissions globally with it predicted to grow at a rate of 5% annually, agricultural worldwide is estimated at 10-12% without taking into account what carbon it takes out, but yeah it’s ourselves that’s the standout problem.....
The sheer hipocrasy of your modern day vegan deriding livestock farming and how it’s destroying the planet while in a lot of cases hopping on a plane a couple of times a year without a after-thought and it’s consequences

Aye thankfully nothing after that for a few months. A chance to recover. December is crazy too

Ah, the chart I looked at shows the dates the ban on spreading starts and ends. So it ends the day before.

Don't heed me. Still not right from Christmas.

Ours are fairly spread out over the year thankfully.
Enjoy your trip, this is my first time not making a match in a long time. I love the shopping around the city center around Christmas and a good root around a few bookshops for a few hours. I might manage a trip in May thought...:;):
