- Our cows names are Polly, Maolín and Short-horns. They have a stable for themselves, A piece of timber is inserted into the wall and an iron ring is put into it. A homemade rope is connected on to the ring and tied round the cow's neck.
When the cows go into damage they are tied with a Crom-nasc round the horns and on to the hoof.
