- One of the busiest days EVER starting off trans shopping cattle as David Holdsworths huge wagon can’t fit up the back of big Roy’s farm, so we did four loads of cattle in the yellow wagon and then onto the road and over to the big wagon, they went to Darlington auction and then we loaded up with cows to take to Carlisle H&H BORDERWAYYYYYY seeing the sweetest pet lambs go in to get sold was ace I didn’t realise they could do that I should go and get myself some more 🤣🤣😇😇😇 off to @TomPembertonFarmLife to visit on a top secret mission (I know you all love a top secret mission) looked at the most epic shed in the world I’m very taken with the feed poles barrier like….. what do you actually call them? Anyhow much fun had drank milkshake played with highlands etc etc. we put all the panels in up the side of the shed where the feed star system will be going, the merlo is excelling as always. Cladding gone in the tank room it is AMAZING more to follow on that he will have finished the ceiling soon then you will see the full effects.
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.

Hugo is a legend. He’s learning to be halter broken 😂
Was thinking you and the ginger warrior better get a room way it was looking......
😂
Love your channel Charlotte, and you give a detailed picture of everything you are doing.
Are you going to have enough silage on the farm.
Fancy coming To Blackpool and not calling in for a Brew, (Stella)LOL, I always shout Morning kids when I open gate and go in Polly tunnel at allotment. Wierd people look at me strange
Awesome guys cheers 👍🏻
Interesting
Like the moo at the very, very end. Was that Hugo?
Good to see you and Ginger, a couple of characters 😄
He’s the top red head on CZcams isn’t he
You having an affair with Hugo😊
Love Mr Andrew Pemberton Esquire, favourite Dad of CZcams Farmers.😅
Cheeky bugger getting a kiss on camera 😊❤
Madness, chaos and fun that’s why we watch. Interesting, informative and barmy stuff. Love it
We tiled our dairy with a sky blue back in 1975 they not any tile they about 20mm thick and really tuff.
You TILED it this is epic I’d love to see a photo
Lovely tar
With a song titled,"More trouble than he's worth",it might not lead to domestic tranquility
Ha ha ha ha I liked the tune 😂😂😂
great video misses
Hi love your video's.
Just one thing putting those barrier panels on the outside will be a BIG problem.
Nightmare scraping out
And shoulder injury on your cows. 👍
The Feedstar system will dictate x
Hi I thought I would pass on a tip about putting in the panels along the feed fence. I think you should seal under the panel between the concrete as the slurry seeps into the feed .l have seen it so often where this happens and they have to be lifted out and try to seal on dirty concrete.
We thought we’d have to seel underneath but then remembered the other sides are poured 100mm higher with concrete to make 600mm cows side abs 500mm feed side x
Hey the tank room is looking very nice 👌 and I am glad you put videos on that are different I love them and we should be grateful for you putting them on with all the work you are doing ❤ loved Roy's face coming out of the street poor love 😂
Great video Charlotte, I think Hugo wanted to come home with you .
Those little klin lambs are right bruisers ❤ some little corkers ❤
Aren’t they adorable growing like weeds they don’t make as much in the end but finish a lot faster
Another great video! Thanks for taking us along.
Glad you enjoyed it any time x x x x
I used to go to Darlington auction mart when it was in the town
Loved the more random, here, there and everywhere x
A bit of spice in your life 😂😂😂
Gotta keep an eye out for Andrew, he’s a sly one. Knows his hay/silage he does.
He does and he totally is 😂😂😂 love it
Excellent video Charlotte!
Glad you liked it!
Great video Charlotte
Glad you liked it!!
Nice little easter egg at the end there!
Thanks for all the vids, keep up the good work :)
Glad you like them!
If there's hole's in the wall of a tire they are generally Buggered.
We all need a bit of spice in this weather Charlotte. Thank you lots.
Yes we do x x
Great video ,omg on Hugo I could sit and talk to him for ages 😂vinyl sheeting great job top end job ,I once agreed to pick my brother one time in Dublin I was driving my truck and trailer in tiny streets it was horrible got thru it but next he got the train haha😂
No shit stains up the wall then.
Good Times 😊
Yes it was! X x
Bumpy roads lol welcome to lancashire the surface of the moon is smoother than our roads
I will agree with you about roads round pembertons we went one day road in was atrocious so we tried s different way out lol which was no better 😂😂
Must be near the coast roads as Southport has a bumpy road doesn’t it
charlotte old mate. i think you should have put the panels on the inside. easier for cleaning and the beams will last longer
They are forming a trough for a conveyor belt to run down so they need to be on the outside :)
@@charlotteashleyfarm ahhhhh. i see i see. smart mam
The cladding is way better than the coating Tom put on the walls of his dairy.
Your not wrong there
Hugo would make a good house pet for you!
I loved Hugo😂
Isn’t he the CUTEST
All coming together now not be long before your having that yummy jersy milk 😋
You can come down with a jug any time 😂😂
@charlotteashleyfarm I used to deliver to a farm that had a vending machine at end of lane and they made there own ice cream it is the best ice cream in yorkshire 😋
Hugo is lovely
He’s so sweet
I think you have a new fan ! If I didn’t know better I’d say Hugo is smitten! Pity he doesn’t have a phone or he could sub and get great content on an almost daily basis! I can’t wait for the cows to arrive, that will put a stop to your gallop . I’ve had a couple of really tough days and the bit of light entertainment was just the tonic. Regards from Ireland.
I’m glad it’s put a smile on your face that’s what it’s all about that cow is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen I need one myself 😂😂😂 it’s the way he’s just wandering round with the cows it’s adorable
Great video Charlotte you make me laugh. I new you wouldn’t get stuck with Roy driving 😂. You have to bring Hugo back to your farm as your pet cow. 😂😂
I wish I had a Hugo
greetings all im well 😂❤
HELLO IAN
@@charlotteashleyfarm ive been knocking out 15 hr days been. a tanker w#nker
Wareings of Wrea Green make without any doubt the best farm buildings
We have a few you definitely get what you pay for
I wished I got a bid smacker of the guy with the ginger moustache, Hay from Norfolk? , it must be good Hay as everything from Norfolk is Great , including your subscribers 👍🏼🍻💛
No we got straw from Norfolk we can grow hay around here not so good at grains 😂😂😂
How did the warming box go?
Gert lush
You must have taught the Pemberton's a few things about dairy cows!
They know their stuff, Andrew needs to write a bloody book, it would be a best seller!x
They do make steel toed boots
I knowwww I wouldn’t mind my actual boots are my wellies aren’t 😂
Was good to the ginger warrior up and about
Under order to take it easy :)
another great video, not long now until the shed is finished and you get to start milking yourself. when will we find out what you where doing at the Pembertons?
Oh I was just mooching around stealing shed plans and CZcams tips etc you know how it is 😂😂😂
Glad to see the Ginger Warrior up and about. Hope he's taking it easy(er).
One question ... why did you put the concrete panel on the feeding rail on opposite sides of the column either side of the shed. On the previous video you put them INSIDE the columns. On this one, they are on the OUTSIDE. I would have thought that would be difficult to scrap-out on manure.
Ahhhh good questionnnnnnnn so on the side you saw in todays video they are forming a trough for a conveyor belt system so they needed to be on the outside now I wasn’t keen on this as you say keeping them clean would be harder but needs must c x
Was Hugo in the boot? He took a fancy to you. ❤
I would have taken that thing home I NEED one of my own to wander round with the cows
Sort of like a donkey guardian but a highland guardian
How did you get the close up of Roy passed him... or hasn't he seen it.... until now... 😮🤔😉
He hasn’t seen it yet it was actually a WhatsApp to the woman who’s house we tried to park outside and SHE WASNT EVEN IN
Another cracking video, I was just wondering, how much smaller are the Jerseys compared to a standard dairy cow?
HA HA HA I laughed when I stood next to one they are TINY
Are the feed passage cement panels on the wrong side of the pillars in terms of ease and effectiveness of slurry scraping. It is going to be a right pain in the derriere scraping the area on the shed side of the pannels ?
Well funny you say that so this side are forming a trough with a conveyor system down it so they had to be flush x x
I hope your keeping a cow or 2 for your own freezer because with the current trend of beef and lamb auction prices it will be dam sight cheaper
The one who was to stay was an Angus bullock off a Monty dairy cow. Things have go expensive building so he went to market yesterday…. £1600!!! Got another two extra pigs coming and a pair of lambs to finish for the freezer though!!x
@@charlotteashleyfarm I guess with the good prices and having more pigs coming though along with lamb or mutton it's a no brainer to sell
we found soon as we gave up milking and changed to beef and suckler cows our usage and spend on antibiotics and penicilin reduced to almost nothing overnight even though the cows we use to milk are now our suckler cows.......we use to get a fair bit of mastitis and therefore then we use to struggle with cell counts......different people would tell us different things like oh it's your milking parlour thats the problem or oh you don't use enough straw or oh you need to get rid of all your high cell count cows and buy some better ones but then we thought bollocks to it and put them all rearing calves and we've honestly barely had one mastitis case in 7 years since we gave up milking. .....the last box of mastitis tubes we bought back 2017 was over £100 a box so i'd hate to think how much they cost now........sounds like your going to have to invest in a medicine book charlotte.......allthough you would probably put it all on computer now i suppose
I have a nice medicine book but it will all be through the new system we use on the computer and inputted on your phone, our cows were all dairy x animals always did us really well and actually had a lovely Friesian animal from a fella called Chris who was giving up and that animal had some of the best calves we have ever had x
Wow What a journey, Couple of questions, as ever. How is the little one you put the splint on,? How long does it take for the tails to drop off? What happens do you just find bits of tails everywhere?. Sorry if they silly questions, but I have never needed to know these thing till I started watching you, So your fault. lol take care. Witchy
Ha ha ha ha WELL no 4 his tail has dropped off and yes you find little white tails all over and throw them in a hedge 😂😂😂 still a tiny bit bent I think I had a look today from afar I’m going to have to catch them tomorrow for a closer look
Close shave with the tractor on those narrow streets, not quite as dangerous as letting you loose in the pet lamb sale would've been though.
Honestly the mistake was getting down a tiny one way and then realising what we had done
Honestly HONESTLY I’d have spent everything we would have made with the cows 😂😂😂😂😂
what determined which auction your cattle were taken to; ie why did certain animals go to Darlington and others Carlise?
Ahh good question so Darlington is a new addition to the auction trip people have been getting AMAZING prices there latterly and we thought we would try it and they haven’t let us down, they are close to finishing farms in Yorkshire near the breweries and crisp factories etc so the guys who would want to buy ours frequent there sort of big dairy bullocks and rangy stuff not too much shape, Barnard castle was more for posh showy young stock for people and other farmers to buy to breed off or to fatten on, Carlisle is the biggest cast cow auction in the uk I believe and all cows go there it’s very busy x x
@@charlotteashleyfarm Thanks, I guess that rational re location, food related industries and type of animal specialism - Show breeds versus food chain etc goes for throughout the contry?
My respect for you as a profession keeps on growing. I salute you.
Did you sell those cows as barrens or did they go for breeding? Really like your videos x
They went in the prime stock sale if someone wants to take a chance on them they will as they could see they are coming all from one farm etc :) to be fair you always get the best price either way that way
@@charlotteashleyfarm yes you definitely do. I thought they were cows not heifers, my bad
They act like sheep addicted to sugar
They totally do x x
How many ewes are you lambing?
150 x
@@charlotteashleyfarm you take very good care of all your animals
I don't think you have got any probem to keep talking.😂😂
BAHAHAHAHA you know me too well
