on tuesday as it hit -11C in the barn, night milking turned into an interesting experience.
all the clusters froze up, fortunately during the clean not the milking, and the high pressure hose dribbled for 30 mins before clearing itself.
tractors on frozen slurry...what glorious glorious fun.....started at 10.....2 hour job....finished 4a.m. 1 hr before the relief came in....
i was a very very happy boy
sorry for more cow chat finman but i did warn you
