Big breakdown during the night. Straw from

[@EddieRedX5]

Well Charlotte your very lucky knowing Wardy letting you have that lovely straw must admit it looked Very nice straw this is what what farmers do is help each other because straw isn’t very plentiful at the moment Hope your feeling better Andrew you must have had a dodgy Chinese great. video Charlotte keep up. The good work What a lovely little calf glad it calved alright Charlotte your a star.🎈🎈X

[@WardysWaffleAndrewWard]

So many comments I could make to this vid!! 1. “What a weirdo”!😂 2. I think the merlo tyres are too soft!😂 3 Remember the charge for the straw is an hour a bale! 😂 I was feeling better until I saw that fetas! 🤮 I couldn’t be a livestock farmer! Love the robotic milking and you have someone who comes out middle of the night to fix it. 👏

[@charlotteashleyfarm]

Your a star you can charge me by the bale on holiday one day when you lot jet off to Portugal

[@johncastle1702]

Well done with the electrics Charlotte , it would be well worth your while getting a qualified electrician to explain basic fault finding for the non electrical qualified, a few simple test with a little logic applied will pay dividends to you, especially as you are electric dependent and animal welfare is vital. Your vids show life on a farm as it is disasters, joys and sadness in one show, very well done, you are a star.

[@charleshart6992]

Another excellent video Charlotte, and another year of great videos and content too! Wishing you, Roy and the family a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

[@charlotteashleyfarm]

Happy holidays!

[@Andy-ix2ox]

Vacuum pump! Yup when you are really tired you just can’t think straight! Kinda happy sitting here after evening milking knowing that I don’t need to go out again till 6 am , makes me feel not so bad that we couldn’t afford robots. Regards from Ireland, straw looks good, where’s that yard?

[@marilynchadwick1500]

Wow what a video, an amazing thing to watch, I found the little calf so cute, pity about the fetus but very interesting to see. well done on your food bank drive. Take are Witchy. X

There could have been a power serge. If power is supplied by over head power line's. Wind may have affected them and that's what put the power off. Some farms I have worked at had the same problem. The good thing is it had tripped and there's no damage to your electric meter.

[@colinsandford4500]

High winds a flicker or transient spike in the electrical supply and the circuit breakers trip. The protection discrimination must be fairly good as it took out the breakers on the robots and not further upstream.

[@michaelbird3183]

The calf fetus was absolutely amazing

[@andrewwebb2691]

Have been thinking about it what about using a ride on mower without blades and scraper attached better manovering and clear vision

[@jasondavies4887]

If its just the one off don't worry, but if you get a couple, you might need to look into things like Leptospyrosis, Neospora BVD.

[@cheekyshelly]

You in the Merlo holding on to ur assets! The bales were strapped down better! 😂😂😂😂

Great video again, Charlotte. That's some nice sraw from wardy

[@erikklein-x6u]

I think that they would be called circuit breakers not fuses

[@charlotteashleyfarm]

Oh that’s good which ones those huge ones in the cupboard?

[@michaelerdman1544]

That's one thing u need to get in rotation is hoof trimming or feet care, I see ur cows are on pasture and concrete floor. You should find someone to do feet care and get started on a rotation. Each cow should be seen twice a year or as needed or as recommended with ur hoof trimmer.

[@charlotteashleyfarm]

Oh we do he comes once a fortnight for the afternoon and gets 20 or so done

[@Michael-8903]

Bouncing merlo I'm guessing the boom suspension is on tried different tire pressures front and rear? some tires have stronger sidewalls, which is basically impossible to help with different tire pressures. Annoying yes but fun to watch

[@richardcanning7351]

And what was the problem Charlotte? You cut yourself off too soon. 😂. You need to get a sprung sheet so you don’t hit the roof. 😂😂

[@adrianchetwynd1334]

My guess is that it was a temporary power cut which disconnected any circuit that was held in by a contractor.

[@keithk1246]

We know you are experienced with livestock but you need to watch yourself with those heifer's especially when Roy is curled up in the blankets and you out on your own! They don't no what there doing and could think your going to harm the calf! And I know how fast they can move and believe me you won't get out! 😲

[@charlotteashleyfarm]

Oh I know I once got bowled over by a limmy I’ve never seen one move so fast

[@keithk1246]

@charlotteashleyfarm Yeah me too! Only for my father I was being scraped off the wall! And after that I could never go near that cow at calving, and my father could do what he wanted with her!🤷😅

To be fair wardy is nearer Nottinghamshire border, the real Lincolnshire is about thirty miles east of wardy on the Lincolnshire wolds. 😂😂 AONB

[@adrianchetwynd1334]

Andrew is only about 15 miles from Lincoln Cathedral but about 32 miles away from Nottingham City centre. Lincolnshire is the second largest county in England. So I think that you need to reconsider your stance.

[@adrianchetwynd1334]

Google “Lincoln Cliff” Paul. It will prove that Andrew is well and truly a Lincolnshire man.

[@pauldunwell1318]

@ I don’t disagree but the Nottinghamshire border start around Newark which is around 20-5 miles to Nottinghamshire cathedral and he would get to Lincoln cathedral in 15 minutes, it’s only a comment
