Good work on the shed.. your getting there.. might want to use some 12v lights leds preferably and some two core wire and string 2 to 4 down the court pass to a battery.... just so you have lights for a long duration if needed.. stay safe 🏴
The shed is looking a world better. It might be worth looking at if you can find a solar light kit just to get some light above the feed passage at night
We had shed rented last year like that lights were there but no power so got am electrician easy option bought an extra big led bar light put that on top over door brought a wire from it and a plug just plug into back of tractor or van when needed same as plugging in trailer lights
We went through putting troughs in with cattle. They always fill up with shite, everything now is a field trough outside that the cattle put their heads through a hole in the wall to drink out of.
That shed will tidy up nicely I understand the work involved in sheds that age I will spend the winter feeding in one built in the 60s that has 55pens in it with chain scrapers under the slats originally silage fed from 100 foot high towers
Good stuff Phil surely do appreciation the in-depth explanation, i am confident your decisions will be properly decided upon especially with your fathers encouragement and guidance. you will do well.
Looks good mate 👌 will you fill that pit up with maize next season to feed the weaners over winter, and might be handy to finsh those extras. Can just bucket it infront of them with the Tele 👌👌
Great job on the shed Phil theirs one thing the water pipe might be better if it was on the top bar of the gate because the cattle might chew on it where it is Really enjoyed the video as always looking forward to the next one
I would try to hide the water pipe a bit better or maybe move the drinkers near the aisle. I think young cattle will pull and chew on that where it is.
Ye will be bet on feed space if you expect to put 60 head in there yas should think about knocking out the back wall next the silage pit and put in feed barriers seeing there is concrete along it
Probably better buying off season Calves .....use the shed to finish them when tthe time comes ! U would want a mortgage💰💵💰 to buy stores & if the trade dropped you would be left with the mortgage💰💵 & no cattle..🐮🐮🐮🐮
Grate video 📹 Phil as always and oul boss there working hard to wise oul man ur father 👨 I was disappointed didn't meet him in ploughing do maybe next time 😢 kind regards from a wexford viewer down near ned Murphy s country, an where ur yellow 1200 was only half mile down road from me for a year or to in field off scrap true story that.
Bro is turning into a big lad, has he finished his farming education yet, without doubt he will be an asset to the farm, looking forwards to seeing him in more posts you put on each day.
You seriously put in some random timber as barriers after investing into nice new concrete floors? You must be joking! Tell Father Phill to get the barb wire out of his pockets and invest properly.😎
It's doing the same job. Why would you be running to the local builder merchant to throw you're money away. These boys are operating a cattle business which is a low margin business and making a success where many have failed. Money was made for minding not spending.
Depends really, if the farmer that owns it is 50 and lease is 10-15 years the owner won't do much with it and the rest of the shed will have to be rebuilt after another 15 years
So…. You think using dairy cattle for beef is the way to go🤷♂️ Does that mean using beef cattle for dairy works too? What you put in is what you get out!! If the labour,drench,feed etc is the same cost Why waste your time with dairy for beef? Dairy bulls are for veal! I was breeding exotic which is Friesian x Hereford over Charolais They grow tall fast from the Friesian then full out from the 3/4 beef into beautiful beasts. But your doing beef bro Any beef is better then dairy,unless your milking which you aren’t. What you are doing is wasting your time,straight up! Beef breeds man
Phil, the 50 year old shed looks great! Well done!

'Farmer Phil's
speed-wabble' 😅😂😅
Brilliant! Making some today with my youngest daughter!
The shed looks good Phil and done in time for the weather turning, cattle should be happy in there,
Use sika 4A to seal the leaks. It comes in a 5gallon drum you mix it with cement.
What a good job on an old shed well done
Looking good
Cheap amazon solar panels lights might do for inside shed

You could use up the old slats in the foundation of the floor of your new machinery shed, just a thought ,, 👍
Would be worth getting a solar panel flood light for the shed they are a mighty job €70
The water seeping in the tank was so you can agitate the slurry easier without drawing heaps of water in 😂
Father phil will sort shed out
Hi farmer Phil that was a great job with your shad lad and the best of luck with it 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great plans for the shed it will be a great addition to your farm .great video
Good stuff Phil surely do appreciation the in-depth explanation, i am confident your decisions will be properly decided upon especially with your fathers encouragement and guidance. you will do well.
Tink better off using shed for your calves than stores cos of having to move feed over there
Why was the centre passage left so high or the tank lower when is was built?
Fantastic job, phil. How many head of cattle have you got at the moment.
I have to admit I've never seen slats like that apart from in the dung passage in cubicle houses, do the cattle keep clean
The new pens look good Phil, you are doing good. Xx
Looks good mate 👌 will you fill that pit up with maize next season to feed the weaners over winter, and might be handy to finsh those extras. Can just bucket it infront of them with the Tele 👌👌

Congratulations at Making a New Shed Philip
Is the water seeping in because of the repeated bogs beside u
Another great video Phil
Ye will be bet on feed space if you expect to put 60 head in there yas should think about knocking out the back wall next the silage pit and put in feed barriers seeing there is concrete along it
If feeding with diet feeder and keep it in front of the barrier it will be fine for space
Where did u get the slats phil?
Great video Phil
Nice one Phil
What's the story with the roof, if you get a storm it will be gone
survived up till now ........
@@georgedoorley5628 every storm will weaken it further too
Great job Phil but will cattle not chew them pipes
Are you going to repair the tin work on the sides and roof that would tidy it up great video again farmer Phil
Stagger your calf rearing next season. You ll end up with a flow of finishing cattle all year round.
Well come ji
Great job Phil best of luck in the shed
The roof of the shed looks alittle worse for ware, will it need some work done on it...
👌
Nice looking shed now cattle will love that
Probably better buying off season
Calves .....use the shed to finish them when tthe time comes ! U would want a mortgage💰💵💰 to buy stores & if the trade dropped you would be left with the mortgage💰💵 & no cattle..🐮🐮🐮🐮
Swap them clips for padlocks
Good luck 😊
Id be letting in more air with the low roof ...knock a course or 2 off the back walls ... incase of pneumonia..
No mats?
Solar lights go good.
Other option is led lights and a generator will run them handy
Phil it is fine looking shed now
Grate video 📹 Phil as always and oul boss there working hard to wise oul man ur father 👨 I was disappointed didn't meet him in ploughing do maybe next time 😢 kind regards from a wexford viewer down near ned Murphy s country, an where ur yellow 1200 was only half mile down road from me for a year or to in field off scrap true story that.
show put slanty bar more sil on slats be eating
Whats the song in the video 4:00
The cattle will fill the drinkers with shite😅
Terrible place for the drinkers, they’ll be full of dung 24/7.
Just check them every time in the shed and drain them if necessary, simple really
All cattle fill all drinkers with shite always
Won't be a issue, good farmers cheak there drinkers at least once if not twice a day, takes 30 seconds to clean out.....unless your a lazy one
Bro is turning into a big lad, has he finished his farming education yet, without doubt he will be an asset to the farm, looking forwards to seeing him in more posts you put on each day.
He’s training to be a teacher, it’ll suit him perfectly, he’ll get very well paid for doing SFA.
Would ye not go back into milking 100 cows big check èvery month good job on shed was single slats no good
Please jet wash the walls
Evening!
Drinkers on gate could be a bit higher,other than that ,great job done
A bit to mild for housing cattle
Great video Phil. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼
Looks fantastic
You seriously put in some random timber as barriers after investing into nice new concrete floors? You must be joking!
Tell Father Phill to get the barb wire out of his pockets and invest properly.😎
They were there before him he just put them back in
If you listened closely to what Phil said it’s not there shed it’s rented…there hardly going to spend thousands tidying up another man’s shed 😄
The cattle will break the new drinkers they be better on the wall
Thank you for an informative video. Keep up the good work.
The shed looks nice Phil, big job but it's done now.
Good stuff
As long as it works, it works :)
😂😂😂
9 by 2
Fair play phil i was wondering why ye went to all tat trouble with slats yer not afraid off work
U could put some lights up and use a generator to power de lights
why
@salmonhunter7414 Incase they need to do some work with de cattle when it's dark
Ah Jesus lads are times that tough would ye in the proper timber 6 b 3 or 9 b 3
It's doing the same job. Why would you be running to the local builder merchant to throw you're money away.
These boys are operating a cattle business which is a low margin business and making a success where many have failed. Money was made for minding not spending.
Timber to do that job is very expensive as he would have needed Douglas no point putting in spruce gone rotten in 2-3 years
He could almost of used the old singles slats in place of the timber
@@cecilbates5423True that,Consaw them to the right height,do rightly🤔
Bet the farmer that owns it is chuffed he found a couple mugs to spend the money and in a few year he will get all the good of it
Depends really, if the farmer that owns it is 50 and lease is 10-15 years the owner won't do much with it and the rest of the shed will have to be rebuilt after another 15 years
I think he is too committed.
👍👍🙏🙏👌👌💪💪🇮🇪🇮🇪
So…. You think using dairy cattle for beef is the way to go🤷♂️
Does that mean using beef cattle for dairy works too?
What you put in is what you get out!!
If the labour,drench,feed etc is the same cost
Why waste your time with dairy for beef?
Dairy bulls are for veal!
I was breeding exotic which is Friesian x Hereford over Charolais
They grow tall fast from the Friesian then full out from the 3/4 beef into beautiful beasts.
But your doing beef bro
Any beef is better then dairy,unless your milking which you aren’t.
What you are doing is wasting your time,straight up!
