Full House

Eventually found all 14 loosely spread out in the woods neat to the camp top.

Some laid up cudding some grazing all seemed fine.

Thursday am

No cattle sightings, but it was nice weather for ducks.

Wednesday May 23rd - Full House.

Found all 14 together this morning in 14Q. Most of them laying down cudding while a few were grazing lazily. All looking fit and well.

Thu 17th May all seen

Matthew saw all the Caesars' herd on Thursday afternoon up on the track by the Sandy Hill estate.

All were looking healthy and well.

Wednesday am

The entire herd were lying down across the open area, behind the Pavilion. All looked OK.

All calm on Sunday afternoon

All 14 were lazing in the sun late afternoon in the valley between the Sandy Hill track and the camp area.  They seemed fine and were very relaxed (none were on their feet - or interested in getting up - so hope that is true).  63 was separate to the rest of the group, may be taking a little time to settle in?

Wednesday

Was on site yesterday and saw all but the new one 072 Sarah!

Going to pop back Monday morning and make sure shes ok.

All looking good otherwise, a few ticks but grazing team are on the case.

Another cow added

I've just added another cow to the caesars camp crew. Making 14 now. I also sprayed all of gelvert and the cattle I saw on Caesars for ticks and flies.

I saw 93, 98, 75, 1940 and no tags on Caesars and all gelverts

News just in: The big lass 063 who was lame and on GCA is now better and being dropped off with the CC herds. CC now totals 13!

She's still a little bit stiff but should be ok. So that's 13 on CC from today!

Friday evening

8 looking very content grazing on the slopes between the covered reservoir and the Bourley Road.  Lots of tapes and markers around, looks like some sort of event this weekend. Entertainment for the cows?

1/5/18 Only 4 seen....

21/23/33/35 All looking happy lying on a nice grassy patch in Long Bottom. You can see that tick season has begun - I’ve picked up my first (didn’t tuck my trousers in to my socks) and the cows have a good crop at the moment.

Another full house half way down the middle main track past horse pond.

All looking well but ticky. Got a call from a member of public concerned one had rash under the armpit, explained it' almost certainly an exploded tick.  Nice. Sure enough, 940 has a couple, so have another 2 or 3. Looks worse than it is, perfectly normal at this time of year.

Tick treatment will happen, just no date on it yet.

Dropped off the last lick of the year for them, they weren't Overly bothered with it which is a good sign they don't need them anymore.
