This week the cattle have left the fold yard and have gone out to graze, no more silage and fodder beet for them but lovely green grass to eat!
The cattle first went out onThursday and came in at night for the first two nights as we had a cow to inject with antibiotics due to a lump on face.
On Saturday the cattle were let out and they have stayed out all night, although I don’t think they have enjoyed the rain!
Here are a few photos of the cattle waiting to come out and then being let out and walking to the field.

Do you keep cattle and have yours gone out to grass or are they cattle that stay out all year?
