    Tom, this past year is not a regular year to judge your stats by….what with Jo, the new baby, all of the construction, replacing the bull, etc. Give yourself a break and wait until things calm down a bit for a true stat to judge by. You’re doing just fine by our standards❤❤❤❤

    Tom, if your cows 🐄 are happy, healthy, and having a good rest in your barn. It is the best that you did. So no matter what you said, you did a great job. Do not say it anyway else. You are a good farmer.

  • @gillianmiller9710
    @gillianmiller9710 3 месяца назад +8

    This video had a lot of educational value for non-farmers. I would dare say quite a few did not know the cows eat the after birth. Provides nutrition to the cow, and is an evolutionary adaptation. Helps remove the scent of birth, helping to lessen chances of detection by predators.

  • @Almightyrastus
    @Almightyrastus 3 месяца назад +13

    I am by no means a farmer or even a country type, having lived and grown up within Nottingham City, but I have spent a lot of time around farms when I was younger as those were most of our holidays, plus I am an engineer so numbers are always good, especially when they have meaning and help to explain what is going on. Thumbs up on this one from me.

  • @deb283028
    @deb283028 3 месяца назад +22

    I like data and numbers so this video shows what your work/cost benefits are and whether you have been successful. Yes, I would say you did a fine job considering the stress on both the team and the heifers and what a whirlwind year you have been experiencing.

  • @Marsha1901
    @Marsha1901 3 месяца назад +5

    Tom, you are a wonderful farmer, you have weathered, the Bale, the creation of a parlour, becoming a father, a wife who has been in and out of hospital and some truly awful weather conditions. You have faced all of that and not just survived but thrived. Give yourself a pat on the back. Give my best wishes to Jo, Harvey and the ginger guy. Love your videos they are a spark of joy and always make me wish I lived close enough to your farm to visit, however I am tucked away down in Kent. All the best and long may you continue to grow and prosper.

    You proved you're a great farmer, just by analyzing and looking at the numbers! It's all a learning experience, you've not done the straw method before right? So even just getting half is really great! I never noticed the difference in body type before but now that you mentioned it you're absolutely right.
    I really hope Jo is feeling better and Harvey is doing OK!

    Such an unbelievable amount of respect and admiration for you Tom. Haven’t watched all the vid yet , but whatever the results are the most important things in life are family , health and happiness. It dosent matter if you made more or less than last year. You work yourself so hard (too hard if you ask me) and you should rest assured knowing that you’re doing more than enough

  • @GraeMatterz
    @GraeMatterz 3 месяца назад +3

    You're doing a good job Tom! Don't let missing 60% get to you, especially considering this was the first time trying a new method and it's with a small group. As you dial in your procedures and have a larger number of cows for data, the numbers should improve.
    Placentophagy (postpartum consumption of afterbirth) occurs in many species of mammals for several reasons beyond nutrition, one being instinctual to keep from attracting predators to the birth site or nest. More recently it's been discovered that placenta (and amniotic fluid) contains elements that are natural opiod enhancers, and increase pain threshold.
    Love and hugs to Jo. Hope she's better soon.

  • @rickmeisch643
    @rickmeisch643 3 месяца назад

    Tomas a pointer for you is to try and calve your cows and heifers no little calves in the calving pen or even near by. Why, because the animal calving won’t keep her mind on calving if a little baby is in the pen. The animal will concentrate on her delivery and not waste time plus do it quicker! Very important on hard deliveries as like for a heifer they don’t fatigue to soon and most of the time have it themselves! Clean fluffy bedding is also half the notion for mother to put forth her baby.
