Oh no Phil liv taking over from Father Phil giving out when your standing talking to the camera😂
Lol 😅
I've got a dairy herd and often use fertility plus AI, so I have had alsorts of breeds. We keep all calfs and sell them as big store cattle around 18-24m old. My favourite cattle are charolais, they always stand out and look better than the rest right through to selling them.
Nice to see the dry weather at last
Nice to see the sun again :)
Ah good Fr best calf of the lot ,ah good square lad .
Great job everyone all looks well
Very interesting video, for a townie.
That's a class video of your farmer Phil and Great calf to 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Nice video and great to see your cattle out to grass.
This years Crop of calves look better quality and healthier , best of luck with them.
Black herefords,best calfs we've had,but must be outta pure friesian or fleck cows.although I must say when I had sucklers charolais were way ahead no matter what cow breed they were off.
Good man Phil. Good video
Great Video Phil, a nice line of calves, thanks for sharing
Nice to see the calves out. I hope your grass improves soon.
Agree about BB ,it's not better then other ....i don't like them at all.
But what a nice calf heards you have! Clean and nice bodys and calm ! They are well fedd i see.
Manny +++from me
Agh an you man that found 'the goose' that layed the golden egg
Liv-n-it-up 👌 😍
Great video Phil, u should go away more often as ur looking 10yrs younger looking with the bulk of the beard shaved off, you look fantastic 👏 without the beard 😀 😉 👍
Good stuff
CTcc powder is good for calves that are coughing it is a Yellow powder to mix in with the Calf ration
where do you buy that powder?? can't seem to buy it anywhere
Belgian blues are notorious for needing a diet richer in protein compared to other breeds to perform. You would need a massive operation with whole feed wagons worth of Belgian blue optimized calf diet to make economic sense. in the Single European Market you're probably in the top 5% of farms rearing calves. they look good on paper but there is no economies of scale to support it.
I couldnt agree more on the Belgium blue calves, more milk more meal and more problems.
Iv been taking fertiliser out yestaday the feilds that had muck in January has grass rubbing the bottom of the front axle of the tractor.
So so good and interesting our favourite farmer’s in the world. Thank you for sharing.😊😊
It will be good to see next year the difference between the at lib calves and if it pays off, as I guess they will be drinking a litre or 2 extra a day or do they drink almost the same amount
The most I seen one drink in a day was 16l which is 10l more than the restricted fed calves. I’ll have an average consumption when they’re all finished but I reckon it’s around 10-11l which is 4-5l more than the others
@@FARMERPHIL3690 16l dam, I would struggle to drink 16l in one day
16:00 hereford calf looks to have an injured leg
Will have to investigate
Have you noticed any difference/benefit with the use of Precision Microbes?
I when with sum bb calf wish I had not seen them . Get on much better with aa and her x calfs
Will you try any simmental calfs next year
Hi phil How did the wood chipping workout with straw ?? Was bedding dryer or did you have to clean out the calves?
Should get the daewoo fixed then you can do the digger work yourself
Second
👍👍👍
Calves are looking great guys 👏👏 sheds look much cleaner than last year, is that the better drainage with the chips and the improvements to the ventilation? How are the yearlings going? Have you done anything different with them feeding wise this winter, they got clover and crop last winter yeah?
The wood chip is savage improvement to the drainage and keeping the bedding drier and cleaner. Yearlings are going well getting a bit tight on grass but hoping this weather will push on the grass
@@FARMERPHIL3690 awesome mate, love it when a plan comes together 👌 we use kiln dried chips here for the calf sheds, it’s amazing stuff. Makes a good base for an outdoor pig lot and n a wet summer after you get the calves out. 👍

What's small tractor parked up in field
Speaking of calves how ispini doing these days
She’s doing fine
👍
Calves look very good. Could you comment on mortality? Would you expect to lose 3-6% every year despite doing most things right?
just wondering where those figures come from, is that an average?
There’s too many variables to put a figure on it. The top units out there claim to be under 2%
Can't see lads getting into the CBV value as much as it's being pushed. Everyone is sick of these ideas that don't work in practicality and usually more workload in paperwork for nothing
Just another money making scheme.
Wouldn’t touch a BB calf again, waste of money
Ad lib not ab lib
i think the problem is with the mother, you see yourself the difference between different herds within the same breeds! you can't put just anything to a Jersey and have an any way decent calf from it, truth is BBX from a dairy herd is a glorified friesian most of the time.
you saw yourself the difference in germany with the fleckvieh herds, crossing CH or BB to those will leave you a good beef animal or even just a pure fleckvieh will out perform BBX or CHX from a friesian.
I've seen myself the difference in the cull cows for example, every JEX is a P, and the fleckvieh will at least be an O or maybe an R, plus add on the weight and it's unreal the difference per animal, JEX lucky to get 700-900 Fleckvieh going for 1500-1800. and i'm sure that must come through in the calf aswell.

At pleasure.
At will.
To whatever extent.
