This is the dairy’s naughty spot and this cheeky young cow spends a lot of time there.
She’s a clever little thing and has noticed that there’s often grain under the feed bails when her sisters become a tad overenthusiastic tucking into breakfast. She lurks in the exit race waiting for her chance to quite literally “clean up”. The problem with this is that nobody else can get past her and a traffic jam ensues.
This morning, Wayne’s shooed her away three times and tried squirting her with the hose but her behaviour has continued to be “not acceptable”, so here she is in the “naughty spot” (with apologies to Super Nanny). She’ll be allowed out when she writes “I will not get in the way” 50 times and all her sisters have left the dairy.
Thanks for starting my day with a chuckle!

Great post Marian.
Can so relate to these cows who become an OH&S (aka WHS) nitemare waiting to happen

You’re right, Lynne. Got to be extra careful, that’s for sure.

And I guess she doesn’t want to be the last into the bails….she could save you a bit of clean-up time?

No, always one of the first to be milked. A real gobble-guts!

Just a little smarter than your average cow, spoken in the best Yogi Bear accent.

Might be able to solve it another way. Have a look at http://twitpic.com/8x7ii9 from @david_vacy

lol thats gold. Or you have the cow that is the last in the row and she wants to take forever to walk out of the dairy as she slowly eats up all her sisters scraps on the way.

Yep, know that one, too! Doesn’t seem to matter how much they’ve just been fed, either!
