Thursday 39 Sept
All seen happily munching in the field between the Pondtail and ford gates.
All look good and grazing happily. Three in middle of first field not far from the gate one 231 over by the fence on the left hand side of the gate. Couldn’t see any cuts and eyes nice and clear.
The main gate into the field feels a little less secure, maybe the rope is just getting looser?
All well, seen in open heathery area. Both girls have a small bloody scratch behind their left elbows...some springs sticking out of their bed perhaps..
Had to go a little further into the field today, saw two of them close up and both looked fine, grazing happily. The other two were a little deeper into the bushes but looked ok from what I could see, also grazing happily.
All seen in passing over the weekend, looking good. All fine this morning, clean at both ends but some flies on their eyes. They also seem to have started to grow their winter coats.
Hi all, I’ve moved the cows across to the corral section of the site. They were very excited for the move to new green(ish) pastures.
I’ve also fixed both gates either end of the ride between the path near the estate and the ford so they shut and latch properly now. I did a full fence check but if you could have a glance at the fencing you wonder by when out lookering to make sure they aren’t trying their luck anywhere that would be great.
