The cows are ready… are your collars? Get in touch, we’ll make sure you’re set.

24/09/2025

🐄 With mating just around the corner, now’s the time to doublecheck your collars are reading, and that each collar is matched up to the right cow.

If you’re scratching your head or things aren’t quite lining up, don’t sweat it that’s exactly what our application support team is here for. Give them a yell, they’re always happy to help.

Hope the cows are pumping out the milk, calving chaos is finally in the rear-view mirror, and you’re starting to wean those first calves. Hang in there summer’s not too far away 🌞.

Happy Thursday team may your coffee be strong and your collars be working harder than a relief milker on a Monday morning!

Anoestrous cows dragging the chain before mating?

With Afimilk collars you’ll spot them sooner, sort them faster, and have them cycling before the season’s in full swing. Smarter heat detection means fewer empty days and more incalf cows saving time, stress, and lost production.

Farmers, you’re doing amazing. The days are long, the nights are short, and the to-do list is longer than a cow in full flight across a muddy paddock 🐄💨. But you’re not doing it alone the aficollars are working away in the background, giving you the backup you deserve.

Here’s to another day of carving chaos and collar calmness,muddy boots, happy calves, and maybe even sneaking a biscuit with that 10th cuppa ☕🍫. Keep at it you’ve got this! 💪

Chocolate: the unsung hero of calving. Right up there with good gumboots and strong coffee. 🍫 ☕️

Calving may be chaos… but it’s not too late to collar up!

Even if you’ve already kicked off calving, don’t stress you can still get those collars on. They’ll start reading your girls straight away and within 5–7 days, you’ll be getting solid data and insights to help you through the rest of the season. 💪📊

The collars learn each cow’s normal behaviour, so the sooner they’re on, the sooner you’ll get early warnings on health, rumination drops, and those sneaky calvings that love to catch you off guard. 👀

So if you’re keen to make the rest of calving a bit easier let’s get those collars on!

📦 We’ve still got stock rolling out and farmers jumping on board, so flick us a message or give us a bell.

And to all of you knee-deep in calves, afterbirth, and 3am checks hang in there. You’re doing a bloody good job. Don’t forget the chocolate and a cold drink stashed in the fridge you’ve earned it. 🍫🧃
