Two of them up and munching today, still haven’t seen 114 on her feet. She was repeatedly licking her front left leg and no amount of gentle encouragement would get her to stand. Would like to see her up on her feet. But she had the sun on her back and was happy grooming more than just her leg as I left.
Emergency Procedure
- Call the office on 01256 381190.

Still chewing - All good
If I didn’t know better, I would have said that they haven’t moved since yesterday. Haven’t seen them stood for two days but they have plenty of cud to chew.

Kissing gate wide open

Kissing gate at this location is wide open not an issue for now as it’s in the original paddock

Collars giving early warning
All good and look to still be enjoying the fresh grass by the gate dividing the fields. Collar was giving warning about 2 m from the gate to the track leading up to the canal. This might be by design but the grass towards that fence looks tasty

In far paddock all good
Not sure if the gate is meant to be open but it is and the girls are loving the lash grass by the gates

Friday 27th March
Reported on Pondtail Blog, but I agree about the gate issue, (although I'd be very impressed if the cows could get through!😄).
Gate towards stream not easy to close
The gate by the ford in the stream is not easy to close and is being left open. The inner tube is doing its job of keeping the gate close in but it rests 10cm open
All good
As no one had checked them since Wednesday popped in to see the girls in their new home. Very happy munching the heather
