Bit of all sorts today dad comes to out a roof on the robots boys land to block the bulk tank in, trough explanation because you have all asked what the crack is with the height of the feeding area, sheep fun, doing what they do best and throwing down in a field because of the weather, we do our best to save them, hungry lamb and mastitis
in 2009 i had no experience of farming or the realities that came with it. That soon changed when I met my other half Roy, I had a job as a carer and in every spare moment threw myself into farming. I had only ever driven a Nissan Micra and had experience with horses, I learnt the hard way as nobody had the time to show me and soon after arriving I found myself mothering on calves to three quarter bred limmy cows. We spent every available moment on the farm between our day jobs. Fast forward to 2016 two children later we moved into our very own farm overlooking the northern Pennines, Laitha.
we are in a transitional period at present and will finally be milking cows and making the final switch later this year, after years of planning and implementing infrastructure we will be milking 120 Jersey cows on two Lely robots. This will be a huge change and a steep learning curve
I will be taking you all along for the ride so hit that subscribe button and see you every other day for farming vlogs.
I am overjoyed to be a farmer. I feel so fortunate every day to wake up and do what I love and even better share it with the world and hope it inspires more young people from Preston to spread their wings and think outside the box the world doesn’t need more childcare workers or hairdressers it needs more farmers.

Can’t wait to see the robots going in. You probably can’t wait until they start milking to start putting money in the bank. Thanks for taking us along.

Love watching your videos of the journey into dairy, as someone who has no knowledge of robot milking and has not milked a cow since in college 50 years ago I have a couple of questions I hope you can answer. 1 how do you train cows to go into robot for milking thinking of heifers and bought in replacements? 2 what about newly calved cows are they milked separately or can the robot be programmed to not to put their milk into the tank? 3 how is mastitis detected and treated and the milk kept out of the tank? I hope these questions have not been answered before and I am wasting your valuable time asking them again. Keep on smiling and making enjoyable videos

maybe you should put some celotex or loft insulation between the joists in the office before the floor goes down , possibly gonna be a pretty cold office in winter with no insulation anywhere ? the walls you could insulate later if required with an internal stud wall , but the floor would be a pain to take back up

Did the poorly lamb you took in from the field make it? The spotted lamb is amazing looking wee thing. What hoof trimming crush are you getting? In Ireland, the robotic farmers like yourselves seem to favour the table type, using them for tubing cows, be it for mastises or drying and will do the pre drying off hoof trim at the same time as dry cow tubing.

Forgive me, suck eggs etc. If you had a decent wood chipper you could use it for all wood : Hedge cutting, branches, packing wood, shuttering maybe even cardboard, all to be chipped for your biomass heater in winter ? Free fuel.

what a pollarva though isn't it..........all that work .......all that expense ........just to sell a bit of milk........it is though isn't it, when you compare to beef or sheep farming........you can start up in beef or sheep with far less capital outlay. you will need to keep that wind out .......things will freeze up otherwise in a cold spell

@charlotteashleyfarm if you have an empty spray bottle put some washing up liquid and water in it and spray that on it, it's easier to smooth out. Try a bit first though just in case it's a mastic that doesn't like it.
