There's a plug.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, you have an end of the year. No, it's
it seems to be a good wee we spot for
sweet stallways. William Street seems to be a high traffic flow.

aren't going into the wheelbarrow in the middle of the gore, how's.
Speaker 3 (00:43):

on the swedes last week, so it's coming to an indisha.
Be another another week or two and let's be done
for the year. Well it's gone fast, he's, well, we
are middle of July, aren't we. So yeah, you know
really the springs only calving is not far away, the
the guess, and and you know August is August and
(01:06):
Landings just around the corner. And said's you know the
winter's going by pretty quickly.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Are you seeing any signs of spring on the farm yet?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Well, my brother in law, Garth, he found on duttlings
walking behind mum there two or three weeks ago. So
really I'm not sure what that was, what what that
means they but yeah, so that was back in June. Yeah,
this buttery for them.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Absolutely, But I mean it's just a circule of life,
is it not?
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Well, it is, isn't it? But yeah, normally it's not
to August or see the minute I was like, oh
my god, I can't believe that, but sure enough he was, yeah,
Mum and samy ducklings. So yeah, in June it.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Is really So as far as fee utilization, grass covers
and the likes, you're looking all right.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Well, the grass covers are fine around here. We we
don't have anything on grass. It's just been taken away
obviously not going now. But you know, right through on
too June it was just ticking over nicely. But so yeah,
we've all start putting animals on a off cropping on
the grass and probably another three four weeks probably have
to be fair so into middle August, crops and crops
are holding up right, So now we've got plenty plenty
(02:12):
of feet in front of us.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
When the deer go on there.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I'm pretty sure I've asked us previously, but do you
put them behind a reel or just give them the.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Paddic No, no, we gave up, and then a few
years again we just put them give them the paddocks again.
Utilization is pretty good. They just walk around slowly and quietly,
and they get the leaves off pretty quick normally. But
the rest of the bulb or of Charles talks to Yeah,
they just walk around and yeah, just happy days.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Really, anything that's left, you give a bit of a
grub and get them off of something in there, just
a nuzzle, nibble over it, kettle perhaps.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Welly gin is a role that the hinds can stay
on those paddocks right through it all early October anyhow,
month out from our fawnings. So there's a rule the
fodder beat. They seem to get in and dig it
all out anyhow. So when you got it up, you
don't see not a lot of great deal of quarabat
come up at all compete the swede.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Any hell, it's interesting just because of the different because
there's how beat works, I suppose, but how.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Beat works and the day just love it that much
that they always see sniff it out and dig down
to it. And if you get a wee weet period,
well we're sort of damp at the moment. Yeah, that
they'll they'll get in and dig it all out and
want it all And yeah, as I say, when you
got to grip the peta cup, it's it's it's nothing
comes up. So now they they're pretty good at cleaning
(03:32):
the petta cup.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
That's a seize we've head that I suppose, And especially
over the past three weeks.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
We've had winter when we need winter. That's the thing
with these frosts and the lights.
Speaker 3 (03:41):

any how many cars are as intered in it, but
they're carlon all over New Zealand. And I'm pretty confident
sure that Haydon Patton is coming over to rally in
it as well this year. So he's been railing around
the world and in the w r C, you know,
all over the place, so he's coming back home and
coming south to compete in it. So it'll be good
