New to this forum but not new to forums by any means. My family runs a dairy farm here in Cape Breton and I do YouTube video's pretty regularly and I'm fairly active on Instagram with farm pics. I go by the same username everywhere, so I'm not hard to find. We have lots of different gear, mostly Massey Ferguson from a little 35hp 135UK up to a 130hp 3650. Many different attachments, and lots of garden tractors kicking around as well, MF10, MF12, MF14, Case 444 etc. Anyway, hope to contribute a bit and stay out of trouble lol

To the TBN forum Mac. Nice looking place there. How many cows do you have and are they all of one kind or mixed?

 

[Mac102004]

We are milking around 40 cows, with our heifers and dry cows we are probably around 70 animals total. All Holstein, although we have a couple that are Jersey/Holstein mix and one Black Angus kicking around to be sold for meat. Just a small farm, although the average in Nova Scotia is only about 100 animal herd. It's nearly impossible to grow bigger with the quota system we have choking existing farm operations and making it completely impossible for anybody to get started in the business.

Nice pics. I love how cows always seem to be ready for a photo op.
