Trials underway 🧐 This year we are flipping our bull beef enterprise on its head from the norm and trying to finish at grass. Our 100% forage reared breeding bulls normally achieve carcass spec by 16 months after a period of compensatory growth.

Lamb tailing finished today, first year using Robin Smith and really pleased with how easy it is to use and the lambs response to it, a great tool. Nemo drench, b12 jag and tags also applied, the Te Pari Products Ltd lamb chute is also a fantastic

The first 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 customer in 2024was in Shetland earlier this year. Congrats to Jamie for moving lamb marking foward in the auld country, using a #vetmarker cradle #elastrator ring dispenser and if course #painrelief for his #lambing2024 🐑👍😎

Our senior stock bull Fordel Erling. He'll be 8yr old in a couple of months. Can't remember the last time he was inside. Hopefully his daughters will continue to be hassle free like he is. Also pictured below is his mum who's nearly 15 and back in calf again.

Weaning starts on Tuesday so time for a few autumn pairs photos. Some nice calves around but time for them to get some nice grass and bales. We find the cows are much more content after weaning as well.
