- Today the bulls are out of here, thank goodness! I have some cull cows going with them so will make it easier to get them on the truck....I hope.
The angry fella almost run me over coming back out of the truck again.
New upgrades mean we are edging closer and closer to being ready to extend the milking shed

Love your vids but the handler had no need to prong the cow. Never understood shocking the last one as they can only go as fast as those in front. Have a word
Yep I know what you mean, however he didn’t actually shock it, he was using as more of a stick (I watched it a couple of times as I knew someone might pick it up).
He’s an excellent stock man, he’s transported a lot of my stock and he’s honestly one of the best, takes his time and is patient.
I don’t like the prodder too much, but it’s handy at times.
Having dealt with Jersey bulls in the past, my heart was racing when the single bull turned at the lorry door. Devils in disguise 🏴
Haha mine was too a bit 😂😅
Hey Andrew is there anything to stopping you going out the other way over towards your Grandfathers old walk thru cowshed. Nice video and you should have stayed inside the loading ramp and took the bull on as it would have been good front row rugby training 😂😢😅😊
@@johnjordan4647 Yes theres the road which is too close unfortunately, for a split second I did think about holding my ground haha
Same 😮
Here in Queensland Australia, we milked 280 plus twice a day,( with a further 30 or so springers) with a double pulsating system. But only had 8 bails.
So it took a few hours to get them all through. But LOVED it. ( the best childhood, growing up on a dairy farm)
It’s a great lifestyle to grow up with, I bet milking took a while though 👍
LITTLE PROD HAPPY DONT YOU THINK.
Great stuff Andrew, always pushing forward to improve on what you have already. Very best of luck with your future plans. 🍀
Trying too 😂
@@TheOnceADayFarmer well keep trying,cause your doing a great job fella. 👍🏼
Always great to see those guys on the truck and out of the way. Have you ever thought about using beef bulls for cleanup. Look forward to seeing the upgrades materialize, always exciting to see improvements. Great video.
Jersey bulls are notoriously some of the more dangerous bulls. Definitely don’t miss them in that aspct
Yes agree. Mine just returned last week from the heifers and they're so disruptive and loud compared to the beef bulls.
I think you should consider the new parlour with the cows exiting front out
That way the cows exit much more quickly saving a load of time
Would be nice, but to do that you need a really wide shed to have the room and we don’t.
If we were going brand new it’s something to consider, but it’s also another thing that can break, gates are pretty simple 🤷
Almost 26k subscribers. Looking good.
Looking good in the photos Andrew with cian and the Irish cousins
Hi Andrew , Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your family , hope you all have a safe Christmas and New year , hope you reach all your targets in the new year , loving the videos
I’m so happy not to have angry bulls. Great video
They were alright, just that one was bit of an a hole 🤷
Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎅🎅
We used to rear calves on cows that weren't really good yielders. Then send them away when dry.
Good idea!
Love your operation and how you present it.
Please do a comparison between this season and the last one. Are you still doing better.
And merry Christmas.
Good idea, will update 👌
Merry Christmas to you too 🎅🏼🎄
If you do a upgrade on a pad for the truck check with your milk company to there requirements,I have been in construction for a lot of years and am now retired but have projected manage from earth works to finish on dairy sheds, you guys don’t need any surprises after completing, hope this is helpful all the best going forward merry Christmas to all
Cheers mate and good point!
Merry Christmas to you too 🎄🎅🏼
👀🙄🐾👍🎄🎄Great video Andy You were lucky with that LOB going on the truck
How's your maize looking?
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year Andy Dad and Families
Maize is absolutely cranking now! Some of its taller than me 👌
He definitely took a dislike to me 😂
Merry Christmas to you and your family too 🎄🎅🏼
Yes im feeling another payrisr from fonterra sometime in late january early February.
Just went through me emails.
Last 9 auctions going back to mid august 6 were up, 2 down and 1 unchanged.
Whole milk powder was $ 2548 in mid August, now $3207 a 25.9% increase since August 15th.
So hopefully steady increases even at 1-3% over january 😊😊
And I want another 50 cents 😅
I dont ask for much ..😂
if you brought it down to 2 hours milking would you consider going to twice a day milking?
Just sent some 3 yr service bulls to works
Should be heavy weights. Shorthorns can weigh like lead.
😂
What is the amount of milk production per cow for you to consider which ones to keep and or let go?
Depends a lot on production compared to same aged animals
Great video Andrew, can I ask how many cull cows you have per year on average?
Usually carry 20-25% replacements so have to make room for them every year.
Say 8-10% will be empty
So 10-25% culls
Would you run it as 1 herd if you were to go to a 30 aside or keep two herds
Probably still 2 herds as the feed pad is in the wrong place, and I’m not sure if I would be able to fit them all on the yard in one herd
Angry jersey bulls are the scariest animal on the farm.
Do you change the bulls every year?
how old are the bulls ? Angus breeder here in Aus and we run our bulls for Three years before moving them on .
When you say the works is that a slaughterhouse? They seem young to be going for slaughter thanks for sharing
Would you milk twice a day if you had the bigger parlour Andrew?. If you could milk them in one and half hours? It will pay for the job much quicker. Even to milk one herd twice a day?.
That’s the mis conception, if I were to milk them TAD I wouldn’t necessarily do any more production, and then they would be walking more so more lameness, heat stress and repro rates would probably get a bit worse.
I don’t want to milk TAD, and we are farming a system that works, jerseys do adapt to OAD pretty well.
We are actually doing more now than dad was milking 2x, all though we are feeding more so hard to compare.
Great point though and one to make a video about 👌👍
@@TheOnceADayFarmer yes Andrew, I get it now with the Jerseys, I'm used to a black and white herd doing 9000 litres. They would never work on OAD,and you are right, my replacement rate is about 22%.
we are having Problems with are bulls to
That is a lot of cows and how did you name all them
😂
Just named some of the good ones, not many 😂
Boa tarde você só cria raça Jersey? Já tive gado e tive uma bezerra jersolando,vaca holandesa com Jersey 😊, este Touro literalmente te odeia rsrsrs 😅
He certainly has taken a dislike to me 😂
Yes only breed 100% jersey
@@TheOnceADayFarmer Bom bom
Do you have to use cattle prods? ❤we bred Angus and didn’t even own a prod
He doesn't zap them much, he uses it as more of a stick unless he has too
@@TheOnceADayFarmer it doesn’t matter if he zaps them or not the cows come to recognise it automatically and they panic. I use a piece of inch round blue pipe about 4 feet long and if I walk in the fields with it they automatically start moving where I want them..
I am the same with horses and crops or spurs there is just no need to have them as horses also respond to other aids.. even my sheep come running for what is essentially an almost empty bag of sheep pellets because they get used to the sound of the bag..
essay over now..
Hi Andrew what sort of money do you get from the bulls and cows. I saw on Kiwi farmer he got $5.50/kg for bulls and $3.50 for cows less costs.
I’ll try chuck that in the next video, I don’t think it’s come through yet 👍
Are you not concerned that the cattle will push you and the 2 wheeler over when you ride around them?
Nah not really, it’s easy to jump off and we’re always thinking of plan B if something was to happen 👍
start doing some murch extra money
Maybe, a lot of work and if it didn’t all sell out then I could loose more than I make 🤷
Why do you guys only milk once a day, I milk cows in Canada and people normally milk 2-3 times a day.
Suites our system. We are low input low output and don’t see a reduction in production milking OAD compared to TAD for us 👍
@@TheOnceADayFarmer thanks for the explanation I was always wondering, your farm is great I like seeing how other places do things and I love the vids
@@HaydenM37no worries, I need to do a video on, I’ve been meaning to for years 😂
Always nice seeing how other people do it, you can always pick something up 🤷
Would love your collars please if you are going to throw them out?
Do you get a day off on Xmas day, or do you still have to milk the cows?
Hi sir can you for me Visa sir.
