    What do we do with our weekends? PD cattle of course. We are on the island of Vallay, just off North Uist which is itself part of the Hebrides.
    I'm joining Ryan Maclean of Highland Agricultural Contractors for the craic and to compare scanning. I didn't bank on the scenery!

    Excellent video!
    Lovely to see our daughter Carianne(Caz),son in law (Fraser) and his brother Alexander all working in harmony to ensure the well-being of their lovely highland cattle.
    A very informative and interesting watch👏👏👏
    Thank you Kaz!

    13:33 I love this bit. You sound like me the time I was interviewing Irish Sean-Nós singer Lillis Ó Laoire live in FlirtFM Studio 1, University of Galway, and I asked him something towards the end of the hour but I forgot to put up his mic and Lillis was going on and on, and then I realised that only me could hear him, so I said to the audience “that was a competition to see how well you know Lillis Ó Laoire. Answers on a postcard: I asked Lillis this question: xyz. WHAT WOULD LILLIS Ó LAOIRE SAY TO THAT QUESTION? Both of us laughed! 🙂🙃🙂🤓🤓

    So many questions… when the cows were running behind that truck, what were they following so keenly? The video made it look like they were running on water, was that low tide? For those beautiful cows, both male and female have horns? Are the cows primarily raised for meat or mostly because they are a precious breed? Does your scanner friend also have a vlog? Thanks for this video in particular. Its a life dream to visit Scotland and the that area in particular.

    • @farmvetfilms
      @farmvetfilms  2 года назад

      You'd have to ask Carianne that, possibly they associate the truck with feed? The beach still had a very low tide on it hence the shimmer. Both sexes are horned in cattle. Highlands are often kept for beef, or to cross with other breed e.g Shorthorn to produce sturdy females which themselves go on to thrive and produce beefy calves on rough ground. Ryan doesn't have a vlog (yet) but he does share a lot of what he does on social media - see the links in the description!
      Thanks for the very kind feedback!

    Highlands are such a beautiful breed of cattle. I have a plush highland cow that sits on my bed next to my pillow that I bought from Tom Pemberton.
    How would a non farmer like myself distinguish the differences between the pur highlands and the short horn cross? I have no clue what you meant when you described them in the video.

    • @farmvetfilms
      @farmvetfilms  2 года назад +2

      The Shorthorn crosses are typically less shaggy and piebald/skewbald.

    I love seeing them horn on, unmolested.
    I understand why it's done (wasting, safety, etc), but I just don't like it myself.
