Two calvings in one day for Katie! 💪

This lovely bull calf was stuck behind a 270 degree twist in the uterus which meant the cow couldn't progress and calve normally.

An observant farmer, a quick arrival from Katie, a bit of "hefting" to untwist the calf, and a gentle hand at the end means all is well ♥️

And it doesn't stop there... Paula is on call overnight to cover any emergency calls through until the morning 👍

Midge-borne diseases are really causing havoc on some of our farms at the minute.

These are the results that have come through today for a group of heifers that have started calving and it's not been going to plan. Schmallenberg virus passes to a cow from a bite from an infected midge and you can get pregnancy losses, deformed calves and tricky calvings.

But now we know, and we can be extra careful with the rest of the group as they calve down.

Another group of our Autumn block heifer calves stress-free disbudded and vaccinated by our vet Katie this morning 👌

These calves are fed 3 litres of pasteurised whole milk twice a day, as much calf niblets they can eat, fresh chopped straw in troughs and fresh water and they're growing like weeds!

When a "whilst you're here...can you look at some calves" turns into a shed makeover on a Saturday!

This shed is open fronted and not overstocked but the back wall of solid tin sheets meant it was stuffy and there were one or two struggling with pneumonia despite a good vaccination policy.

So off came some sheets! 😍
