Great show Drew. The history of the farm is most interesting to me. I remember remarking a few years ago how much energy was forged by the ancestors to the farm in just the rock fences all around. The brick buildings appear to be ancient. I am 79 year old Bohemian.. All the people in my ancestry are gone. When I was younger I could ask a member about such and such and so and so. Heritage is too easily lost. Load up on as much of family lore as you can. It is enriching. Dennis in Seattle.
Great job Drew . You are quality presenter . I always liked the look of your farm there . There is some real history and character there . Looks like no shortage of money 💰
Great farm tour Drew certainly been a few upgrades over the years 👍 good to see a family run farm investing for the future 👌 would be an interesting video to hear your farms history how long its been in your family etc 👍
If you can get your dad on with some history, maybe pointing out the difference from when he started farming and until now perhaps. The new shed is gonna be great when finished :)
Did I hear you right when you said that you have your first and second cut silage ate already? Fantastic video. First time I’ve seen your channel and it won’t be the last.
Hi drew great video thankyou ,how long does it take to milk,and yes please could you give us a history of your farm be great,and what would you like to do in the future apart from finishing the building, more land more cow numbers cheers drew
@JohntyNich the end of the 90s 98 99, I can't remember the exact year. In 97, they removed the cubicles and went to straw bedding. Good idea, apart from the penny pinching on straw. A few years later, the dairy man left as did the lowland shepherd.
Hi Drew great videos and I really enjoy watching them. Especially as you're a fellow Scot with a similar accent. I was born in Lanark. I'm curious to hear where in Scotland you are? Are you south west of Lanark? Keep the videos coming 👍👍
We were a dairy farm for 50 years,,3 generations,,then switched to beef in 2000,,best decision we ever made,, so much more time,,rather than tied down to the parlour...A little thought to digest,,,at the highest we were getting 35ppl...Dairy farms can ONLY dream of that now...And bear in mind,,everything absolutely everything price wise has gone through the roof....Don't miss milking twice a day one bit...
Your presenting skills have come a long way from the first farm tour. But back then you were used to the 30 seconds to 1min videos of tiktok so now you aren't rushed trying to get all the info in under 1min
i could raise that roof where you feed the cows, and replace the brickwork on the old shed. ive watched your videos since the vegan teacher "disbutes" id be happy to help
@@LlywelynapGruffyddif a celebrity told you to jump of a cliff because it was healthy for you, would you do it? Then why believe a celebrity that was paid by wildlife charities run by multi millionaires saying that badgers don't spread it, when it's been proven fact that the vast majority of badgers have tb
Really great video, your farm is so much bigger than I thought. It would be really interesting to hear the history behind the farm .❤
A fine yard Drew

Can you show how the water bottles work or what they are for when milking please
Enjoyed that Drew all beginning to look very impressive, have you plans to put any solar panels onto the roof of the new cow buildings?
No plans atm
Good morning, Drew. I was at Kirkley Hall the last year they had dairy. Your farm is immaculate compared to that place. Looking good 👍
Our farm isn’t immaculate 🤣
When did they stop the dairy at Kirkley? I was there at the end of the 80’s…

@@leeforeman3656 The dairy man when I was there was a bit dodgy looking back. But it was different times 🤷♂️
Good stuff
Great video. I was wondering what width is the centre passage way between the rows of cubicles roughly where the scrapers are?
The feed passage or in between the cubicles?
@@DrewsFarminLife the centre passage in the cubicle houses for the cows?
I’m pretty sure it’s 10ft, narrow old designs
Wee need more scottish farmers on TH-cam
Absolutely
good vid👍

Sorry great video too😂
How many acres are you working altogether?
A few
How many Farm Staff run the farm Drew?
Family run, employ one
Lots of badgers in your area, I bet you get lots of TB?
No Scotland seems to be ok in comparison to England for tb
@@DrewsFarminLife i think England needs to stop obsessing with badgers tbh, they are putting all their hopes on badgers being the cause.
@@LlywelynapGruffydd badgers spread it there’s no denying that.
@@LlywelynapGruffyddif a celebrity told you to jump of a cliff because it was healthy for you, would you do it?

who is that man who keeps playing his guitar
Background music to help with the wind interference
What roof sheets are you putting on new sheds?
Fiber cement
Yes, but what brand since eternit don’t make traditional big 6 anymore.
Hey Mr Buck
You may have said in previous videos the total acreage of the farm. But could you say again chief. 😎
Cheers
Kermit
young bulls could do with some bedding and more food
Yes, when they eat all their food they get fed more otherwise it wastes n rots, they were due to be bedded too well observed
@@DrewsFarminLife that come across the wrong way there sorry, i wasn't criticizing you, sorry if you thought i was
Please, brother, I follow you on TH-cam and Instagram. Please help me find a job contract on a farm. May God bless you.🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦🙏🙏
This isn’t the place to get a job, I advise you to look for jobs in farmers guardian or farmers weekly etc
Great video Drew
