    Lifted her butt up with the forks of the digger and she stepped forward. Her calf was in the shed

    Every farmer should have those big thick lifting straps. I got a load of them here from a company I worked for before. Neighbours always looking for them.

    Have those. Have a lifter too but I'd say it wouldn't have fitted over her hips the way she was.

    Generally speaking, what is the difference between dairy nuts @16% protein and beef blend @ 16%.
    Got a calved cow (2 weeks) and she has a small udder - I think it's the type of her as she reared a good strong bull calf last year, but boss wants to put her on a dairy nut.
    I don't really see much difference in the general composition between them so wondering if a dairy nut can really do anything here.

    Read the label
    Some 16% calf nut says not suitable for lactating cows as it can effect milk production
    Likewise dairy nut is not suitable for males as it can effect them urinating

    Go to a dairy farmer, if he has ration in the bin for the parlour, that's what you want

    ^ well we can, but we're likely to get thrown into jail for it. While Anto with 55 previous convictions gets a suspended sentence because he grew up in a disadvantaged area/difficult upbringing/left school early.
