Bless Monday morning from Montreal QC Canada and welcome back my friend !! .. gorgeous filming edition captured camera work and as always beautiful upload and share ! .. TQ ! ..
Sean, I find it interesting that the ponies can find enough to satisfy themselves after the cows have taken so much off the field and deposited so much manure. From our distant view, it doesn’t look like there is enough there for the ponies but you’ve found a system that seems to work and it’s quite symbiotic which must be so important when you have limited acres. There’s great education in your videos and your creative and flexible approach to responsible farming. The fact that you produce what is premium beef (and essentially organic) from your farm is a great credit to you. 🇮🇪🇸🇬
All stock looking very well especially maverick, she has really filled out. Your system suits you with the cattle and ponies. Are the calves with galloway breeding born polled ?. Just wondering. Thanks for a great update
Hi Marie yes all belties have come polled . From the cow side and rudys. I'm expecting some to have horns next year with jasper only carrying one copy of the polly gene.
Well Mark I peg it all out every last bit. Cows pick through it and leave what they don't want . I've actually witnessed them shake it out with the mouths too at times . I've also watched them seek out mould for eating. Has to be some want or benefit in a bit of it. Penicillin maybe
Well john no not stupid at all I thought about doing it tbh. And still might. The only thing about the rushes is they are dying off now any how. It could be an idea to clean after the second winter rotation in spring.

I saw your cattle from the road yesterday, they’re looking well. I see your new Mansion is coming along nicely on the other side of the road 😂😂😂
🤫🤫🤫😉
Enjoyed today's video 📹 😅
Love it “who’s coughing” 🐂🐂 😆☀️
Looking great Sean. I’d love to see some of the fields the cows came off of 3-4 weeks ago and see how they look
Well Ian I'll do a bit of a walk back through. The weather has been very favourable so far thank God
Good video
Thank you my friend

Hi Sean. Do you feed out any mould in the silage to the cows?
Well Mark I peg it all out every last bit. Cows pick through it and leave what they don't want . I've actually witnessed them shake it out with the mouths too at times . I've also watched them seek out mould for eating. Has to be some want or benefit in a bit of it. Penicillin maybe
I have a stupid question,is it worth clipping the fields after the horses get done?
Well john no not stupid at all I thought about doing it tbh. And still might. The only thing about the rushes is they are dying off now any how. It could be an idea to clean after the second winter rotation in spring.
Roundup in a weedlicker applied when they are green & growing is the
cheapest way to clear rushes.
Interesting video Sean , you’ve created your own system. Did you always have that little white Shetland pony ?
Could you show us your water set up again please and what type of hose you use?
I will mark 🙌
Not a bad thing to be able to change your mind,would U be better off with good hay or haylage if you also have to feed the ponies.
the downside of keeping ponies difficult to sell not like cattle
Not the connemara pony. Most reliable jumping pony in the world. Big international sales on throughout the year .
They are Connemaras will always sell for good money
