Dairy, Beef, Pig, Sheep, Lambing
I have driven John Deere tractors and done bits of sub soiling. I've also done a bit of towing trailers and reversing with them too. I've driven a case tractor with a front loader Which I am really confident in using.
At college I worked with around 500 breeding ewes, I learnt to lamb, ear tag, worm, inject, fly spray and move them from different grazing fields. I've also worked with 90 beef cows which included ear tagging, fly spraying, injecting and moving them into different grazing fields. I've worked with 120 dairy cows so I know how to get them ready for milking and make sure that they are all okay. I've worked with pigs where I was mainly helping to weigh them and mark them to get them ready to be sent off.
