23 April making compost, panels going in, merlo rules
Update on the shed and the robot progress, a feed auger and putting some panels in, saving lambs from themselves and the baldest lamb I’ve ever seen. Making compost with EWE GROW.
in 2009 i had no experience of farming or the realities that came with it. That soon changed when I met my other half Roy, I had a job as a carer and in every spare moment threw myself into farming. I had only ever driven a Nissan Micra and had experience with horses, I learnt the hard way as nobody had the time to show me and soon after arriving I found myself mothering on calves to three quarter bred limmy cows. We spent every available moment on the farm between our day jobs. Fast forward to 2016 two children later we moved into our very own farm overlooking the northern Pennines, Laitha.
we are in a transitional period at present and will finally be milking cows and making the final switch later this year, after years of planning and implementing infrastructure we will be milking 120 Jersey cows on two Lely robots. This will be a huge change and a steep learning curve
I will be taking you all along for the ride so hit that subscribe button and see you every other day for farming vlogs.
I am overjoyed to be a farmer. I feel so fortunate every day to wake up and do what I love and even better share it with the world and hope it inspires more young people from Preston to spread their wings and think outside the box the world doesn’t need more childcare workers or hairdressers it needs more farmers.

Thank you my little ray of sunshine, you never fail to brighten my day!! x😊
Thank you Charlotte & it’s all coming together nicely & is going to look amazing when it’s all done 😊❤
About time someone did "proper" compost. Poor bald lambkins, that's hairest! 😂
It was an Airbus A400 Atlas, love the lamb.
You have to tell the reason why you are having one and about storage of sounds and pictures
I think the New barn needs " an Aviation Update Tower" with a 360 degree viewing platform. 😊
MEE TOOOOII
Mad lol
Charlotte who sings your backing track???
Who put that bloody big shed in the way...? 😉 You need to think up names for the 2 robots. Maybe 2 people who never got the chance to see your's and Roy's dream come true....? 🤔🤔😉
Oh Charlotte, I just want to say thank you so much for the laughs you gave me in work tonight, 😂😂😂 from trying to catch the aviation up date the first time 😂 too baldy and knuckles OMG I could have wet myself, and you're rembrant work wow more like a Banksy did you sign it I didn't see, but the icing on the cake was the last aviation update and that crying face it crippled me laughing 😂😂😂 thanks ❤
The RAF has not forgotten you
They have forgotten where I live I’m convinced
@@charlotteashleyfarm Think you should get some Red, White & Blue paint and put a monster roundel on the new shed roof.
The bald lamb could be the pet for you as Dr Good,as the hairless cat is the pet for Dr Evil!
great video crazy lady
Thank you 😁
I love the bald sheep can we call it kojak 😂,sheep wire is shit for lambs 😂,super high quality work on the shed love it
You can 😂😂😂
Knuckles! What a hero 🐑🩼
I’m really struggling daily at the moment but your vids don’t half put a smile on my face, thank you
You know what I’m pleased alistair x x x x
Great video Charlotte. Very interesting about the compost ( who knew). Nice aviation update although you need to contact the RAF and demand that they fly directly over the farm in future. 😁
I know I’m going too
That's a class video of you Charlotte and great job to Charlotte and keep up the good work with them ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Are you sure it wasn't a weasel?
It maybe was you kneow
so have you got the collars for the cows???......by the looks of things the robots wouldn't work if you didn't have them........that's going to be one of your first jobs i suppose put all the cows through the crush and put there collars on then i suppose you have to program it all into the computer on the robots and hope and prey it all works........way too technical for me😄😄
Gerald you are spoiling a story!! Got to be a little Tom Pemberton and save some of the story for the channel x
I think you are so smart to start off your dairy with the robots. I can’t wait to see it in action. Love your videos. ❤
Nice looking wall .
you need a coat for sunburns bless
you need a rook
where is the slurry stored ?
Great fun as ever, Will you be keeping baldy lamb? Looking forward to seeing the window go in, In the office.
25th lol im well late tonight
Great video Charlotte
Poor bald lamb he’s going to need the factor 50 for the summer 😂. I really think you need a do some of your artwork on the plastered walls when it’s dry. Loving it when the crazy Charlotte comes out to play 😂😂
When are the cows coming you can’t have much more to do till your ready. Any where close by where I can land the helicopter!!!!!!
Thanks Fer your explanations and updates.
Just spread about a tonne of our own ,home made ,no chemicals compost, around the plot. Gorgeous ,dark , nutrient rich. Some say dig it in . Others say leave it on top as a mulch surpressing weeds and let the worms and rain do the work. I miss our old supply of spent hops as a mulch. Smells of treacle,chocolate and aromatic baby beers. The old boys used to piss on the compost heap saying it added extra. I think they were just lazy barstards ?
What is the difference between a Stoat and a Weasel? One is Weaslely recognised and the other is Stoataly different
Awesome cheers
Excellent Charlotte
I just love watching you, it makes the dullest day brighter.
That compost is a great venture and great to see they aren't using coconut coir like almost every other compost company. You know as its a lot more eco friendly to have organic waste shipped from the other side of the world to make peat free compost in the UK
Plan ahead for an opening day / party. Charge the buggers, all proceeds to charity. Private party laters for friends,family,Inky + Obby Osses !
I don't know which is more adorable, the lamb or Roy ❤
Was the barbed top wire part of the regulations for getting the double fencing done?
Yes and it gets me every time
Be nice to come and see it all up and running from the viewing platform do you think that's something you will do in the future?
So good. Thank you Charlotte!
YAY KNUCKLES ❤ you can do it lil buddy 🥰
I am surprised the operation is pneumatic as that is a total loss system whereas hydraulic recirculates.
It doesn't really matter as air is free, oil on the other hand....😅
@@jonathans1955 Yes if does matter if you have spent your life as a Production Engineer. Air is not free when it has to be compressed and stored in a tank which on industrial premises like a farm has to be inspected and run by oil or electricity. Every time the pressure reduces below balance it has to be restored. Air is the most expensive format used on production lines because it is total loss.
@@glynluff2595 begs the question, why Lely went with air then?
@@jonathans1955 I would be most interested to know. Often in industry formats continue from previous designs and there is sometimes a benefit in price. However, if you are looking at efficiency saving if year by year as management require you to do by reducing your air consumption especially in sorting stations you make considerable gains. This is why Production staff get very cross with operators who fiddle with pneumatic adjustments - and believe me they will! I can see that there at be desire to make matters quickly in development and pneumatic’s is quite good at this with pipe and plug but one you have sorted the principle then hydraulics may well have advantage over the working period for which the machine is designed. Both require electricity to prime but hydraulic oil is recirculatory whereas air is loss. There is currently great myth about oil and its negation in the affairs of men. This will never ever be eradicated as all moving machines except some very expensive electro magnetic ones require oil and grease to move and transmit power. Often this comes as a mix of North Sea oil and Middle East oil so both types are required.
