I have worked on various farming systems within the UK. I am a competent lamber and have completed day and night lambing contracts on various systems. My most recent lambing contract was night lambing 3000 ewes in Hereford. I am competent calving cows (both indoor and outdoor) and performing calf and cattle husbandry tasks such as feeding, injecting, bedding, routine check and calving etc. During all of my contracts I would record farm information such as medication details, tag numbers and key dates where relevant, such as TB testing, which were and still are regularly praised for their accuracy and thoroughness. I have returned to previous contracts and placements and keep in touch with most. I have extensive calving and lambing experience and have seen various set ups. I have calf rearing experience, taking sole responsibility for the calf rearing on a dairy contract near St Ives twice, rearing beef calves at various set ups and taking sole responsibility of a contract calf rearing unit short term. I have also managed and been responsible for students. See CV for full list of stock experience.
