I have always been passionate of working on a farm with animals since I was a child and helped my Grandad on his farm working with sheep and pedigree Hereford. I attended Sparsholt College and whilst at college I worked part-time on a dairy/arable farm to which I became a full-time employee after finishing college. My experienced included general tractor and assisting in the dairy. I then moved jobs to work on an outdoor pig unit which was a 3 week batch and farrowing unit any I was in charge of the welfare of the pigs but sadly I was made redundant. After that I was employed temporary on a dairy farm for a year and I was responsible for looking after the calves and cows included feeding, cleaning and bedding up . I was also in charge of the general maintenance of the farm including fencing. After this I moved to Oxford where I am employed as an assistant stockman/manager on a Pedigree beef Shorthorns farm looking after 200 cows and about 500 calves. I am responsible for the day to day welfare care of the herd, including feeding,cleaning and bedding up. I take care of the calving, de-horning and injecting medication when needed. I also do topping, rolling, muck spreading, feeder wagon and drenching. When I am not looking after the cattle I do general maintenance around the farm which includes fencing and during the harvest season helping out with bale cart.
