north east IN | No the fishing trip is December 5-6-7 hope you have nice weather for me. Would be nice if they start the robots while I am gone and have the cows all trained when I get back. The barn is simi controlled flow. There are free stalls along the feed bunk but if they go through the one way gates to the stalls on the other side they have to go through to robots to get back to the feed bunk. So the cows will come and go as they please but we will have fetch cows to run in. Steve said something about starting to feed cows in the robots in a couple of days and start teaching the robot what end of the cow the milk Spicket are on. They put feed in the bins yesterday. We were milking 550 this spring but sold a bunch and came up on total milk guess overcrowding will be down to about 480 when finished. Have a lot of heifers to come fresh so will sell down pretty hard so want have as many to teach all at once. That is a computer controll screen in the picture the main computer is in the office | |
