It does sound like a lot of work all the way around. Do they need to stay up due to weather there? I'm 52 and finding ways to make farm chores easier lol :)
@ IF, you’re going to milk the rest of your life by hand or bucket milkers, you’ll be lucky to make it to 60 without knee or hip replacement. BUT, a parlor, with a small herd and more mechanization in handling feed will extend your physical well-being and enjoy the work more.
