Paula Hynes: The cycle of new life on the farm
While we are preparing for a busy February, we have been eased gently into calving with the arrival of two beautiful babies already and thankfully all is well with them and their mothers
It is hard to believe we are in the second week of the New Year, and even though the first few days were horrendous weather-wise, there does seem to be a bit of a break from the rain with the colder weather coming in and a bit of sunshine during the day.
I always prefer this type of weather, it's nice and fresh and a much-needed break from all the rain. The ground is saturated all over the farm, even the “good” ground we have on the top farm. It's depressing walking through the different paddocks, we will need a fair bit of dry weather for them to be put back into action.
