Grazing talk | Cattle moves | Beaver trapping

Today it’s a little bit of everything! We’re going to move the cows multiple times today as we continue to graze non-selectively. Also, we’re trapping beavers for a neighbor! #grazing #rotationalgrazing #cattle #cows #southpoll #grassfed #grassfedbeef #hay #livestockfarming #sheep

awesome vid Marc! I am learning a lot from you!

To manage a small flock of sheep, consider a sheep tractor like on PermaPasturesFarm episode 100. Michelle welded theirs custom for their hilly land.

Feeding dry food soaked prior or wet food/raw meat keeps their hydration up. Hook him up, he’s a good dog! Love the videos

I’m going to start feeding biochar free choice to my cattle. A few of my girls are still holding a little hair. Jim suggested I give it a go. He said it helps them slick off fast and what a great delivery system to get it in the pastures inoculated. Supposedly the manure will turn black if you feed enough. I’m doing it👍

Sweet. You making it? Would love to see a video so I can follow in your footsteps. I need it this year. Holding quite a bit of hair.

@@puresouthpasturesfarm6460 yes we make it. Got a simple build video of the kiln we use. Makes about 50 lbs a batch, maybe more

[@user-kv2pt4lu9y]

Ask an extension agent or vet about those spots. I paused the video and zoomed in and I do not recall seeing that in the past 50 years among our herd. 112 milking in the 70's to 750 milking in 2022, when dairy cattle were sold. Would love to know what they are...

Could you put the pigs on that weedy spot to root out that ruminant-disliked plant?
