I think frazzled knows that colour or breed don't bother me- as long as there profitable

Serious, how are you dealing with this? Are you standing off?

If you were in KK they'd be talking about on BoardsðŸ˜Ž

I was only pulling your leg too. Cash (at the end of the day) is king

used my drive way as a cow track dropped all the permanent fences at the back of the paddocks so I wasn't going in at the narrow end of the paddock and put everything on once a day and kept them moving on breaks. Have some high residuals but no serious damage to paddocks. Stood them off in the last rain and ended up doing more damage getting in and out of the paddocks than if I left them in there.

How's about we at least TRY to keep the photos and ensuing discussion to 'Livestock/General Farming' subjects, like it says in the thread title, huh?

I don’t know what I missed either and I thank Rovi for this. Personally this is one of my favourite threads on boards and the one I read and reply to most. All too often it becomes littered with one liner, sometimes one word, “chit chat” replies that have nothing to do with farming photos or sometimes even nothing to do with farming. Well done MOD !

And yes, the irony of this reply not being directly related to the thread topic isn’t lost on me either - rant over !!!!!

naughto · 03-05-2014 01:45PM

so we put up pics and expect people not to comment on them
whats the point in putting them up then
people need to chill the f1uck out with all the mods jumping in all the time now

Yeah happy enough with them. I'll keep all the heifers for breeding, hopefully they'll make decent cows and have some milk.

I've little doubt they'll make the best of cows. Time doesn't be long flying around, you won't feel till you're thinking about bulling them :-)

Sure there'll be no suckler cows in this country in a couple of years:D

Thanks very much Mac, I'll drop the whole lot over to ya in the morning:D. Those black cows would be mostly limousin breeding with a bit of Hereford, Angus and charolais in the mix too. There would be a small bit of bfx in them too. There basically mongrels of cows.
The straws cost €10 from powerful genetics if you buy 15 of them. Sligo Ai use FZF so there should be lots of his calves in the west at this stage.
