Tinge of green poking through, bit early maybe but,, more surprises, first chook for ‘26. Dam HJS S06 Dizzy Lizzy/Sire VPS T16 Tia a couple of days early, a fare lump of a bully @ 42 kg, a reflection of the rip snorta seasons of late in a very fortunate part of Auz 😊

Rufus was through the yards with a bunch of cows for annual vax and weigh yesterday… 1140kg of no bu****it, just all muscle and 10/10 calm as, and he didn’t get stuck going down the race like Verdaman did. Beaut boy, here’s a pic of Roofy 6 months back, stacking it on at Heckle and Jeckle Speckles 💪

Rough winter weather worked wonders today, Rolly Polly SUM r84 finally sorted her self for a Tonka calf and HJS u11 with her first up and walking about first up this morning, our MCfirst by HJS t04 Captain Bacchus. Got to love this rain but, it’s good

Rolling along nicely with 7 new chooks in 7 days, 23 to go for a mixed bag but all bouncing about giving their mums a head ache, funny as to watch ‘em go. Rain drops keep falling on my head, it’s good at Heckle and Jeckle Speckles 🤠

Spring has sprung, magic time of the year, fresh clover, rye grass and a pinch of philaris, and Speckle calves ! a leopard yesterday, all black this morning and a typical Speckle this arvo. First calving cross bred bunch sired by Lucky, a chip of the block Nitro, could be another 5 in as many days. Champ this Lucky lad 🐮

Been quiet, real quiet but doing heaps of upgrades to cattle yards from east to west, well all 3 sets of yards to make things run smoother or more to the point of making cattle work flow smoothly and much more safe ! anyways here’s a little project that’s hit the ground, l like it, novelty idea to show how I rate Speckle Park breed of cattle. Personally don’t profess to any knowledge of the wine industry apart from 2 years in the vineyards around 1972/73, spring calves not to far around the corner, at Heckle and Jeckle Speckles
