Walking on water? There is a boat jetty there somewhere

What a spring or should we call it summer feed. It just doesn’t get much better than this year here on Mount Hesse

Ewe lambs ready for sale today on Auctions plus. With feed like this and great genetics they are some of the best lambs to be offered by Mount Hesse for some time.

@RobSuisted They will fix it if you send it back

Fu*k it. They’re not cheap

New legume based pastures with the old buy your nitrogen in a bag pastures in the background at Scott’s Creek. The strategy was convert the farm for beef now sheep and beef. Grass component holdfast GT and Reward rye in alternative rows

@cuyuac Hi Andrew Composite Engineering are really good to deal with and produce a great product. Our Woolshed flooring is laid on original bearers which is a big saving. Looks good too.

New flooring and replacement collar ties and rafters after 148 years maybe another 150 clips left in it

@redbankgrazing @paradooprime @1 Is this a new paradi(g)me

@paradooprime @1 Is that data showing 10% triplets?

The days of reckoning arrived. Scanning 1st 15 day joining of commercial ewes at Cobbity. 88% wet @1.93 foetus per ewe .includes 100% of Greentags that all lambed as lambs in mid Aug 2020. #paradooprecisionlambing #practicewhatyoupreach

Rape has done its job now preparing the paddock and ready to be taken out for new pasture to be sown in May

Bit of barley and canola should be good for the merino hoggetts in a few weeks

Depth of data is key. Did you know that there are over 5k carcase records from 420 Te Mania Angus sires recorded within Angus Breedplan? This is Lot 1 in March 3 bull sale. Loads of marbling, quiet nature, frame, length, maternal longevity. temaniaangus.com

We are hiring again! With some fantastic additions to our team last time we advertised we are looking for more welders to join us. Stay tuned for more roles to be advertised shortly also. We look forward to hearing from you.

Next Tuesday on auctions plus our first drop of composite ewe lambs. If these young ladies perform like their ewe lamb mothers, the buyer will be very happy. Joined at 8 mths, lambed at 138%. @paradooprime retweet’s appreciated

Horse for courses. New perennial base pasture at Scott’s Creek 900 mm sown Dec 20. New pasture Mt Hesse 560 mm sown May 20. Love Holdfast GT dormant and ready with stored energy for the break in lower rainfall area. Will Reward rye last?

Early morning drop off. Prime line rams into our total drop of Centreplus blue tags to produce some outstanding prime lamb mothers for sale next year.

The tennis court was not being used. The 30 year promise of a vege garden has transpired with a small orchard to boot

@claughton_brad @ 2% there is plenty on the grain after filling the feed cart

@KininmonthDavid G’day David, does the lime in the barley drop out when it gets augered a second time?

2% lime on all stored barley ready for feeding the easy way. Those jacky bins are pretty useful.

@Tedthekelpie @bullockhills Fine Ag lime and it does affect the flow as the grain peaks early so you miss out on a few tonnes per silo. No weavils if you go into the nxt season

@bullockhills @KininmonthDavid Does it appear the flow of grain?

@ProWay2000 A combi clamp. We are building a designated crutching set up closer to the Woolshed. The other innovation is that dags go in bulk direct to crusher in a caged trailer using FEL bucket so no handling

Nice setup @KininmonthDavid, what are you feeding the trailer out of?
