We had a day away from the farm yesterday but plenty of work was still going on – another stretch of fencing is being replaced – cows are very tough on fences!
PS We were having fun flying with an old friend!

The hay is in! Got home yesterday to find that it had not only been rowed up but baled & wrapped too – just finishing the stacking today. It’s a good crop & should be enough to feed the cattle all through the winter.

Hay turning today. It’s drying fast so probably only one turn & then baling for haylage – hopefully tomorrow!🌞☀️

Another milestone in the farming year – the hay has been cut! This little spell of hot, windy weather should be perfect for drying it 🌞🌾🚜

We did a hive inspection today – three out of four hives (which include the two swarms we had) are doing well but not sure about the fourth. There’s no honey to spare yet – all this rain has kept them indoors too!🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🍯

The new calf finally arrived this morning (with a lot of help!). Mum’s very fierce & won’t let us near so this is the best photo – it’s another boy!

Well done team! She looks livid!
Well done! 💪
Glad his finally arrived safely. Well done.
Lovely
Great news
Ok – after consulting the vet we decided not to wait any longer (she’s 2 & a half weeks overdue) so cow no.8 has now been induced – hopefully we should see her calf in 36-72 hours! Fingers crossed🤞

Why are we waiting! This old girl’s calf is about 10 days overdue now – she’s enormous. Hope she gives birth soon or we may have to get the vet to induce her!

This week we’ve taken advantage of the good weather & the sheep have been sheared! It’s always a relief when this has been done as the warmer weather generally means that there are more flies around and flystrike on a sheep is not a pleasant thing!
It’s a very skilled job to get a sheep shorn well (believe me it’s not easy!) so many thanks to our friend in sheep Mick Owen who’s done us proud yet again!

Ahh that is why you sent Si to the pub. I have seen his shearing abilities!!!
Our latest batch of Jacob lambskins has arrived!
They are tanned in the UK and each one is unique.
Perfect draped on a sofa or chair for a lovely cosy look in your home or a superb gift!
Available for £75 each & can be posted if required – see photos for sizes (measurements are of the leather – the actual rug will appear about 10cm bigger!)
