    + 5.3 days. Have one pbr bull (6 months) by him. Fair pull to get him out!! Not over gone on him. Fair calf lacking a bit in lenght though. Same cow had a dancer bull last year and it was a serious animal. Would prefer dancer myself - bought 10 straws of his.

    Them rocks are for just decoration hey

    They are for bragging rights, look how good my sheep are and sure my place is all rock, wish I had grass like you, are them triplet lambs they a bit on the small side, did you feed at all?

    Just lost the use of my laptop, power jack gave up the good fight.

    No they are a trial version of a topless cublicle's for sheep

    Very good. I'd say Con and myself are the only ones nuts enough to try them

    Nah l see quigley has them here in Galway. Bit about it in this week's journal. He's another man that's not afraid to try something different.

    Now, now, there's no need to be like that. The only explanation I can think of is the pressure is getting too high in that tank of yours, you are not sealed up properly in there :D

    Now that I am thinking about them...

    Can't see them working with wooly sheep, and shorn sheep would be a welfare issue. So my thoughts turn to hair sheep :confused:

    Our turkey was between 3 houses. Got it from my aunt she said it was 17 lb cleaned out. I think it was heavier as I nearly dropped it twice taking it out from oven

    Was due to bring the last of the lambs to the factory this morning but decided against it. Thought it was a bit windy for the trailer on the road. Would be ok going up with a full load but going home empty could have bit a but dodgy.

    I cooked the turkey in out house this year. Anyone who likes their beef well done should not be let near a turkey (sorry mum:P)

    I prefer the brown meat so I've nabbed the second leg and wing for myself today. Turkey and ham pie, plus lots of fried Brussels sprouts yumyumyumyum.
