Hello
The farmer who owns the cattle at Caesar's Camp wants to trial a new, hopefully sustainable, grazing regime. He is going to remove the current herd of cattle and replace them with a breeding herd of cows with calves.
The calves will be removed (weaned) each year before the winter, leaving just the cows on site. It is likely that they will run with the bull so that they are in calf again for the spring, allowing the cycle to continue.
Therefore, the farmer will attempt to remove all of the cattle today and then replace them with the cows and calves over the weekend.
I will keep you informed of the number changes, and let you know of any change in plans.
Sorry for the late notice, and thanks for all your efforts. They are greatly appreciated by ourselves, the MOD and the farmer.
Alex
