Checked both enclosures 7.30 to 8.45 this evening.
Ashley Meadow.
Pasture pump, electric fence & battery all functioning OK.
Two cows, close together, at the far north-western end (bless them.....), munching away, gave me a cursory look and that was it. Looked fine at both ends.
Western Fen
Pump OK. Like the work on the new middle gate.
Cows way down on the south-western side. Clearly learnt from the others or vise-versa! All separated by about 30 metres each, eating well, showed a little interest in my presence for a minute and carried on eating. More interested in the music when my mobile rang! All looked well.
Jo, can I possibly have the combination for the padlocks. I have the key for the old locks, but not of much use now. I usually climb over, but have just had surgery to back and shoulder area, and a bit sore. Ta. (07484 790412)
The purpose of this blog is: For staff and volunteers to record what is happening and who has seen what. For lookers to post a record of their livestock checks. To act as a formal record of livestock wellbeing and welfare checks. For lookers to access up-to-date information on livestock and site status, and the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust.
