That cow that had the splits on the yard in snowy weather 😮 Lovely little bull calf
Poor calf that had pneumonia!
Good video Will 👍 these calving aids are a handy bit of kit , but i actually preferred not to use them until was no other option 🤔 not a criticism just my view 👍
Congrats on the birth, how long will u keep the bull untill sold?
Have you tried using the short milking sleeves? They keep your overalls a lot cleaner.
No I haven’t John are they good?
Hi Will good video nice to see your good lady helping you out 😊😊😊
Thankyou Paul!😁
Great video Will 👍 so many differences from the way we did it 🤔 we washed every cow with warm water and wiped with cloths, then stripped every teat before milking to check for mastitis, then after milking they were teat dipped, nice of your girlfriend to help out by the way she deals with the clusters she's helped out a few times before 🙄💪💪 how do you detect mastitis without stripping🤔
Thankyou Bob! We use to have a hot water wash for washing their udders in our old parlour set up although we rarely used it apart from washing clusters with. We have mastitis detectors that are in the pipe line just past the cluster, the idea behind it is that the filter collects any curds or mastitis so we can easily identify which cows are causing issues quickly.
I’ve learnt a lot about cows, I live next door to a farm but obviously don’t get to see everything that goes on.
It's awesome what you guys do everyday keep it up I've always backed British farmers even tho I'm not a farmer myself always been interested in the work you all do, great job #nofarmersnofood
We’re the dream team ❤
My brother made me send it back to supplier. Use provita hoofshure now
I’ve tried hoofsure a number of years ago…I did t recon much to it having switched from formalin to that then back again
Predipping is the best change I made in a long time
What were the benefits?
I’ve debated it before but it’s another job aint it, our bactoscsns and cell counts aren’t too much to worry about atm
Hi Will nice to see you explaining how things work great video again well done my friend 😊😊
This tractor For sale available
No no we wouldn’t sell this tractor!
Good video Will 👍 we had two 14/14 parlours side by side with ACR s and every 6 months we stripped a parlour down and replaced ropes and have to say never seen a plunger take so much effort to get it back in place 😮 hope it works for you 👍
Have a great weekend you guys! ☀️
Hi Will you have done it again very good video my friend 😊😊
Thankyou Paul!😁
Hi Will good video the foot bath Will help the cows feet
Thankyou Paul! Yes it definitely helps their feet😁
Formalin 🙄 that was a name that took me back more years than i care to remember 😳🤣 seem to remember the smell that came from it could make your eyes water 😭 but always seemed to do the job 👌 good video Will 👍
I love cows
Good morning you guys! ☀️
Good morning Dawny!😁
I love those little calves!
Another great post lad. The cattle are content.
great little machines them teagels. i used one for years at a dairy farm and a beef unit very rarely went wrong reliable john
Great little machine that Teagle , chopped straw makes life so much easier for when it needs spreading on the land 👍 Good video Will 👍
Those little calves lovely to see them!
Your camera got a little bit too! 😆
Teagle machine quite good made just down the toad from me
Yes we definitely like ours!
I really loved this one with the calves!
Thankyou!😁
I bet the cows like being inside not having snow on them very good video again Will make sure you keep smiling and warm 😊
Thankyou Paul! Yes I’ll definitely try to keep smiling and warm😁
get nice second hand telly handler you get them nice and cheap at a farm sale 😊
It’s definitely something that we’d be looking at in the future😁
some folk spend more than that on additive!
I bet they do aswell!
Good video Will 👍 noticed that your silage is quite long when the cows pull it out of the bale and remember you saying that the silage sometimes causes a problem in the slurry 🤔 do you have chopping knives in the baler to chop the grass so that it's a bit shorter 🙄👍
He does but said in an earlier video that in a really heavy crop they have to let them down because he hasn't enough power to drive the baler. Maybe they are those bales.
@skuterngobsheen your right these are those bales!👍
Thanks Bob! Yes we do try to chop the bales but as @skuterngobsheen remembers we were struggling to chop the later got 1st cut bales because the weather didn’t play the game and it got a bit over grown…there’s some slurry spreading videos to come soon as you’ll see the problems of I had when bits of this silage made it into the slurry tanker!🙈😬
Hi Will very nice sun rise and a cold morning think the cows will like being inside just make a lot of hard work for you good video again 👍 😊
Thanks Paul! Yes it does make more work but I definitely think the cows are thankful to be inside😁
Considering how long the heifers have been out Will and very little goodness in the grass they're looking really well 👌 maybe a lot more work having them inside but on a positive note look how much more fertiliser your gonna have for the grazing and silage ground next year 👍
Thankyou Bob! Yes I’m quite pleased with how they’ve turned out this year, it’s definitely been one of their best years of grazing for grass quantity wise!😁
nice video men! The cattle loves silage ☺️
Thankyou!😁
Good vid nice heifers
Thankyou 😁
We can have 4 seasons in one day here in Scotland 😆 Really enjoyed walking in the field with yours cows! 🐄🐄🐂🐂🐂
Thankyou I’m glad you enjoyed it I try my best 😁
Nice heifers your bull looks in great condition for being with so many heifers when do they start calving and will you retain all into the herd or do you sell some👍
1st one calved yesterday Paul! And yes we retain them all into the herd 😁
great video and lovely scenery....whereabout are you in Peak district?
Thankyou, we are in the Derbyshire dales near Bakewell 😄
@@farmerwillmellor510 ok thanks, I know the area around Ashbourne well!
Hi Will another very busy day for you and nice views good video again 👍
Thankyou Paul 😁
hey mate gotta give it to you farmers over there in the UK area having to farm in such wet conditions compared to the easy life here in nz
Thankyou I bet it’s a different world over there!
Where's the farm based it looks to me near Sheldon / Monyash way
Yes we are near Monyash 😁
@@farmerwillmellor510 ah I know the place I just recall lots of bales when I drive past :). From Taddington so pass fairly often
Yes that’s the place with all the bales!😂😂
You make some lovely videos!!!! ☀️🐂🐂🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄
Aww thankyou!😁🐄
Beautiful scene Farm, Cows, Skies and Trees! 🐕🚜🌲🌲🐂🐂🐄 Good Sunday morning to you all! ☀️
Thankyou @dawnyWestScotland!😁 good Sunday morning to you aswell😄
If you used the telehandler with a bale splitter to retain plastic you'd have feeding done in half the time
That is something we’d definitely look at doing in the future!
If u just had a shear grab, u can take the net and plastic off wit it. Look it up here on TH-cam
I will do thanks 👍
Good video the cows seem very keen on the 3rd cut bales our 3rd cut bales are very leafy but the bullocks go mad for it mind you the poor old MF 165 isn't keen on lifting them 🤣
Thanks Paul! Yes they are very leaf I think that’s why the cows love them so much!
Well Will the bales may be very heavy and very wet 🙄 but the way the cows were munching them up obviously to their taste 👍 has the milk yield been affected by feeding them 🤔👍
Yes it’s actually gone up since introducing them into the diet believe it or not! I’ll do a video on it soon in next couple of weeks as we’re also started feeding some 2nd cut bales aswell and the milk yield has improved more!
Brings back fond memories ❤
😄
Grand video , i worked for Sharrocks from 99 until 2012, bring back memories seeing those service record books, filled a few in over the years!, good tractors the 300s worth keeping hold of!
