not being smart but the amount of people that seem to think that being "around" a farm qualifies them to work on a farm is unreal , or the other one i get is if you are able to do it i would be able to:eek: ..... if you are seriously looking to work on a farm i suggest you try it out some where for a week and then you will know ... put an ad in your local free ads paper or on gumtree

what part of wicklow are you in.
what dose "being around a farm" equate to in real terms
is it a job you are after or just some experience
any amount of hard work and long days for spring calving,
forgot cold, wet long, hard days

darrenon

I never once said I was qualified. I said I need a career change and would love to give farming a try.I would be a complete novice but I no its hard work and thats what I enjoy I cant bare sitting around.

Thanks for the advice.

It would be great to get some experience,
I actually moved to wexford.
Near the town but I dont mind traveling

You forgot "trying to put a calf with weak legs, and a bad suck reflex, sucking on a cow that hates the ****e of both yourself and the calf" :D

Shure, you would never ever think about swearing in the middle of all that :pac:

You know, I actually got a newborn calf to drink a cow last year, with both to them lying down. A quiet cow, I wanted to get to bed, she was weakened after calving. The calf was a big heavy charolais bull, finding it hard to stand. The calf got his belly full, the cow stood up and I went to bed.
He's as big as the cow now!:D

And Darrenon, dont mind them. You might make a better farmer than the lot of us put together!
