That is unreal! Does that count as an animal using tools? Because I think they took use of tools to prove something about the intelligence of great apes. That dog is brilliant!

Afaik border collies are considered the most intelligent of the dog breeds and that is why they are not suitable as pets particularly in a urban setting unless they have lots of work (stimuli) to prevent them from getting bored.

You are probably too young but I remember when the rooks/jackdaws used to pick the foil lid off the milk bottles, drink the cream and when the level went down they would drop pebbles into the bottle in order to displace the milk.
Ravens are super intelligent.

And ants that farm too. Don't think they milk cows though.

Milk aphids, I think.

Always a chance of a throwback with crosses but you could try emailing them and being upfront with them saying the bull might be different and show proof of the AI docket. Have to do that this year ourselves as our AI docket says one bull and yet another bull on the repeat docket. The 'ai book' which has all our insemination dates & bulls written says the first bull so

Hardly a CH anyway, sounds like an Angus or maybe a Limo. Horns or lack of them will tell.
Ai technicians mix up plenty of straws especially when in a hurry or if straws are the same colour. The new codes can lead to confusion also.
An Ai man around here keeps mixing up the saler bull Highfield Odran Sa2153 and the Sim bull Curaheen Earp Si2152.
Genotyping would tell for sure.

Just an observation.
Anyone see that Guinness ad with the African Americans riding the horses in an urban setting in Compton, L.A. California.

I was going to post about how the hell Guinness thought this was a good thing showing the horses in a concrete jungle and how they " saved them from slaughter " ( ads words). I was going to say that it didn't look like there was much farmland there and how were they feeding the horses but before I clicked post reply I put in Compton in Google mostly to see where it was and Compton cowboys came back in the search bar.

Here's an article about them.

Do batteries charge in headlamp itself?

You might have put in batteries the wrong way and none of them charged. Try using ordinary batteries and see if lamp works.

A little red light comes on in mine to show they charging and goes green when fully charged.

Put them in the standard way (flat against spring) both go same way
Change LED (battery) light was green during charging, when I hit Signal light power button during charging the signal light would go red & the battery light would go red also.
Have it sent back & another ordered

Anyone looking for tillage experience/work in the spring? I know a fairly big operation in Cork looking for someone.

I left my laptop in OH's so can't read the article but from memory he is now involved with an energy consortium in Ireland.

I was down checking the cows an hour ago and no water in the shed. So went to follow the line back to see if there was a leak or a tap on.
Got to the second field where there's a bathtub about 1.5ft off the ground as a drinker. Fecking bull with two feet plonked in it, with the ballcock broken eating ivy off a tree behind it! :pac:

Say my name

This month (January 2018) has two full moons on the 2nd and the 31st.

A second full moon in a month is called a "blue moon".

So be careful on the 31st as afaik legally in Ireland anything goes - "once on a blue moon".

Random fact of the day.

Did you ever consider sitting him down, perhaps over a romantic candlelight meal, to tell him how you feel about him? It'd be nice to have it all out in the open!

The joke is on the farmers I'm afraid, fair dues to him, they didn't think that Pat would use his expertise against them.......they aimed a real good gun at their own feet.
He was definitely more micheal O leary type than micheal berkery
