Summary
We will be walking cows across the field to have their missing ear tags replaced.Detailed description
Meet and park at location what3words fresh dot maps dot vision. Please bring a drink and work gloves if you have them. We will be forming a human fence to gently walk the cows across the fields towards the corale to have replacement ear tags fitted. This is a similar process to humans having their ears pierced. Many hands really make a difference here to keep the animals calm and relaxed when walking to the corale. This session is only suitable for adults over aged 16, sorry this is due to health and safety and insurance. See you there!
