Cattle check 22/06/26

 Hi all

Checked cattle this morning between 08.00-08.30, water pump works well, electric fence all intact... All 6 stock present and correct, 5 standard, one lying down all Central too field, seems content, most either grazing or chewing the cud, flies were at a minimum, all eyes free from discharge and udders normal.

Hopefully they can find some shade this week 

Thanks

Friday 19th

Checked the cattle around 8.30 am. 
5 were sitting in a dry area in the middle of the field chewing the cud. The sixth was standing by the west fence . I later saw him eating a tree branch.

Both the pump and the electric fence work ok.

The southern end of the field is still very wet.

Monday 15th June

I visited Fishlake in the afternoon to take some photos Whilst I was passing, all 6 cattle were visible from the gate. I did not have appropriate footwear to go into the field. At first 4 were standing and eating and the other 2 were sitting. Later that changed. All looked well and clean.

Friday 12th

Found all 6 eating well. The pump works .

Not sure about the electric fence: no clicks from the energizer and I felt nothing when I touched the fence via my fleece.

Field very  wet especially on south and west sides.

Lots of lovely marsh orchids .

Cattle Check - Jo

Checked the cows this morning, 5 were sitting down and 1 standing 3/4 of the way down the meadow in the middle. All well and relaxed, 1 hereford had quite a few flies around it's eyes. Just something to keep an eye on.
