May I suggest you get some calcium bottles and flutter valve incase a cow goes down with milk fever after calving.If you see one with signs then give them a bottle under the skin do not wait until they are down and can't get up as then they will need it in the vain.

Never need to apologise or explain. Insulate the milk tank, reducing energy to keep it cool and be a thermal barrier preventing condensation.

hi charlotte, with reference to your cows eating the render, i suggest getting some stainless sheet folded into angle and screwed to wall. when i lived in kendal i used to work for TFM Enginnering at old hutton , 25 mins from you, give them a ring and they can fold you up angle any size to cover your damage, tell them you want some 16 guage stainless folded angle, folded slightly past 90 degrees so it grips the corner better, they can also put the holes in ready to screw to wall, i estimate about £50 each and would last forever( maintenance free) back in the day when the tanker driver 'dipped the tank' which was a ruler in the tank to measure the quantity he was taking, we always filled our house milk jugs after dipping, driver always turned a blind eye for a coffee

You need to get that humidity problem fixed asap before mold, rot and corrosion of your wood and wiring go to crap. How many cows is your barn able to handle at full capacity? Do you do AI yourself or will you have someone come in? Please chat with your veterinarian and get calcium boluses, IV calcium and whatever the drink mix is that cows are given right after calving along with whatever medications you may need to have on hand and what is safe to use with milking cows.

Great video, been on holiday and trying to catch up with your story. A women's rugby players name for the cow, Marlie Packer who is the captain of the captain of the England women's rugby union team and was born in Yeovil where I do. She is an inspiration for larger sized women of what can be achieved. To make it easier for getting the milk out of the bulk tank you could use a stainless steel ladle with a long handle, just a thought, we used one when I were a lad on the farm.

Dry, close calving cows on straw charlotte need to be clean clean or you will run into mastitis problems, especially e coli in fresh calved cows- e coli in a fresh calver is something to be avoided at all costs. Keep them well bedded, clean and dry. Also, as regards scraping out, cleaning beds off, clean saw dust on, look at getting some sort of swing up n over gates, or a single barrier pole, move the cows out, clean up etc, move the nxt lot, it's only the same as milking cows x2 day and taking them out to a parlour???

Just a little aside, put in a pair of fans one sucking in an one blowing out and it will reduce the condensation ( depending on the weather of course) most of the time it will be dry and it will seriously reduce the amount of mould that grows also when you do have to wash the walls use an alkaline detergent on them and you will slow up the mould regrowth oh and put the fans as far apart as possible ensuring that the air coming in is fresh from the outside and it doesn’t matter where the humid air goes, it’s just the cheapest solution just plug them in on a timer so that they come on for a few hours in the morning and a few hours in the afternoon it works ok and is a lot cheaper than running a dehumidifier 24 /7 however I noticed that you have a window ( eureka moment) replace the glass with fly screen and it might let enough air in to make a big difference, at least try that first as it is a negligible cost and depending on where your window is with regards to the variables it might just do the trick ( worked for us) we only have to wash the walls every year or two. Regards from Ireland, oh and don’t be in too much of a hurry to spend more money girl, you have just made a huge investment and it would be nice to get some bit of a return before you go ploughing more money into the operation, I would be inclined to get your grazing infrastructure up and running as your next priority as that will drive your profitability and the slurry storage is not just a slurry pit but also a bit of a money pit too. Good night girl.

Small herd, milked with a portable machine and churns left outside the gate for collection. They made their own butter and we could go to them with a jug for milk or cream, all absolutely delicious.

i think your right about allowing some fresh air into your tank room .......either a window or louvre vent perhaps but be warned the nice farm assurance people will get arsey about flies getting in there so you will have to have a fly screen over the window or vent. your slurry situation will be eased when the cows go out to grass.......i'm a big fan of grazed grass.......your cost of production will be a fraction of what it is when there housed all the time but how well a grazing system is going to work with robots i'm not sure. your cows appear to be milking well at mo but they say it takes 17 days for a change of diet to fully affect milk yield .........trying to prop up milk yield with purchased cake isn't going to be very profitable so you will need to make your silage good.......i know you got a lot on to see too but grass is at it's best through april/may so silage making time will be the next thing to think about.......our dairy farming neighbours here in Devon are busy doing there first cut silage this week whilst the weather is good

Watching your video where the cow comes up to inspect your coffee cup made me chuckle.

Yes they can be a bit contrary at times but who isn’t.
