Thanks Tom for sharing this video….since I’m in no way a farm girl, I had no idea that it could be too wet outside for cows and they wouldn’t like to eat wet grass! I figured they live outside a good part of the year so they’d be used to rain ( less flies maybe too) and that wet grass would hydrate them at the same time. I’ve learned something today, and I thank you. Your cows look nice and comfy inside and it’s thanks to you listening to what the cows are showing you what they need and want. Good on you. ❤️👍

I think that's great. It's wet the ground will get crazy hoof prints then you don't want a cow stuck. The rain will help the grass grow for more grazing. Using those values of hay is a great idea. The fact of the new shed is that you can house all of them. And it's comfy.
@GotAnUmbrella 10 ай бұрын
I know you will be happy when the new parlor is done, but can you imagine how happy the cows will be with the bail out of the shed? SO much more room to spread out and do fun things. And of course, the new parlor is more efficient which leaves more time for doing cow stuff.

We haven't had a drop of rain since June10. And we've experienced 100 degree F. plus since the week after that with no relief in sight.

Tom, little known switch on newer Manitou Teles is that they have an override switch (for very occasional use ahem 😜) which allows you to over ride the load indicator, very handy for getting out of sticky situations. It’s normally situated on left hand side of seat, next to DPF regen button (if it’s got a DPF). I currently have a MT1440 A (14m boom and 4 tonne capacity) and a MRT 3050 (Manitou Rotating Telehandler, 30m boom and 5 tonne capacity). Probably going to upset some but find the Manitou’s much better machines than the JCB Loadalls.

Hi Tom, the worst thing to do is double handle hay, but as you know things don't always go to plan. There is many countries complaining about the amount of rain they have had in July, so there is lots of unhappy farmers. It's funny how your dad hears you but still stacks the bales his way. Your cows are being very cheeky and they just love being inside with loads of feed. When are you going to show us the work going on in the background, the suspense is killy me? Another great video as always. Chris from Australia 🇦🇺.

Once we put in free stalls the cows just would go out for a short time for exercise and then they would come back in. They would not eat much when out on pasture as they preferred the TMR ration. I preferred them eating the TMR ration as I then knew exactly what they were eating each day. They would drop in production when out on grass.
