Great audio and editing. How long did it take you to put this together?

That was a blast!

I'm not a cow person. I think you guys did great.

I've never seen a motorized T-post driver. Black magic!

I have a bad boy tractor and when I turn the key it has a continuous rattle and won't start. Just bought it yesterday.

Love when the cow says hi with the nose, to cute!

one thing I'm going to have to do is fencing again. We just Finished a nice area back in Wisconsin and now here in the Ozark's it's a bit more rocky. I really enjoyed this video! It's only going to be for goats though. I have never seen a t post tool like that. We always used the tractor loader to drive the post in (probably not the safest). I will have to look into one like that. We also used a fence roller/ stretcher that was 3-point mounted since it was just the wife and me. That did work pretty good. Mechanical advantage is really strong though and they guy we sold it to ripped out a corner post!

That fence tool thing is legit !!!!! Loved the quality and behind the scenes, made me feel like I was at home

that pile driver is fricken awesome!

Oh ruby! Bathroom is so much better!

Well that's an easy fix

A big milestone!

Good job kids!

I love this video!!

I like mine. It definitely lifts the weight. I have noticed brush hogging on a hot day it seems to struggle up hills. Not sure why that is, but I’ve only brush hogged my property around six times. Great video.

It looks so good! I love the contrasting colors

Ruby had me cackling hahahahah, renovation is 10x better than any place I’ve lived in even with it being “quick and dirty”

Aww those baby turkeys are adorable !

Rip Albert though he’s so cute

That’s awesome, I didn’t even know any of that info! Cool to learn about that stuff

Man that was a long time ago (WKRP - "In Cincinnati....😂) Enjoyed the update!

Congratulations! I'm so happy for y'all that you were able to sell a calf! Love your videos, more please ❤

I watch that show too

Enjoy your videos, keep them coming. Congratulations on your first hay season. Be careful some livestock feeds. For example if horses or dogs drink (milk replacer) or eat ruminant food that has growth promotents in them like Rumensin and Monensin it is toxic and can cause death.

I know that the vet that you go to is probably the only local vet and may be the only vet in your area to handle large animals. But, for the sake of your animals, look for someone else.

That baby has a huge white heart on her forehead - she is so beautiful- hope mom is doing well❤

Awesome!!! You guys are hard workers looks kinda brutal out there in the heat!

I can o nly agree with the many positive comments below. Hope Sunny recovers and you have her a long time.

We cross Holstein cows with Jersey bull and never get anything that looks like a holstein. They're smaller, mostly black with some brown and white. I'm thinking she was used to carry an embryo transfer. Meaning the dam and sire were actually both holstein. A dose of banamine can sure help them feel better. I give it IV in the milk well. A fun fact for horse owners. You can buy liquid banamine, draw 10 to 12 mls out and give it to horses orally instead of buying those expensive tubes.

big one u got there! we usually stop feeding concentrated feed and then have about 1lbs 2 weeks before then 2lbs the week before calving, it helps with the size so its easier for them. as long as i work there we hadn't have any problems, so it works i guess

Very Cool!! Please let us know if you need any help on Saturdays. More hands makes lighter work.

Thank you . I miss the farm life!

Amazing you all did well and you and your spouse and daughter did all the right things,,, like you said you all fallow your in instinct How is the baby doing And thank you 🙏🏽 for sharing Us all

Sounds to me like she might have had the starts of mastitis, if so everyone did awesome

First calf heifer after being in labor for TWO DAYS. WHY ARE YOU OBSESSING OVER THIS??? Poor cow.

Wonderful video. Very intertaing and my hat is off to you. A family project and it turned out really nice. I hope that you make a lot of hay and hopefully you will reap the benefits of your hard work.

absolutely no judgements...both animals are alive, your calf is thriving . the lady you spoke with is correct you can do every thing right and still wake up to a quiet barn....animal husbandry is a gamble even with experiance... best of luck and and keep on keeping on!

Holler if you have any dairy cattle questions! I have been in the dairy industry since the 1970's. I milked 112 Holsteins then. My family sold 750 milking, plus about 50 dry cows, plus about 800 heifers in Sept 2022. Heat detection, mastitis detection, other metabolic issues,... I did vet tech tasks (diagnostics and treatments) most recently.

Check out how much more self reliant adaptive grazing is with regenerative ag principles. Gabe Brown, Allen Williams, Ray Archuleta, Jim Gerrish, Will Harris, Steve Kenyon, Greg Judy, Joel Salatin. Dependence on petroleum is high cost input.

Minerals are important. Avoid GMO corn. No soy. I have seen that movie King Corn. It's hard to get it out of my head with the cow stomach ulcers and all. You know they put magnets in milk cows stomach to catch all the nails and bits of metal they might pick up on a farm. Bad shit can happen.

Any Dexter that not only will play nurse cow to another cow's calf but also take to milking that fast is a gem and a considerably more valuable asset. Good milking Dexters and their female offspring are in pretty high demand now due to their triple purpose nature. Ruby is a gem.

It’s possible the calf being so huge may have been pressing on things too… 🙏 she makes a full recovery!! Turmeric paste is good too if bovines can take it…

So happy you took the time to look after her!!❤ Get her onto nano silver!!!

Give your cows calcium powder with your other powder and it will help you with milk

Milking her is good, to relieve the engorgement. I had mastitis once, it was HORRID ! Had to keep nursing and expressing to relieve pressure while applying hot compresses. Has she been checked for mastitis ? It is an infection, would cause high white cell count.

Poor Sunny is a former DAIRY cow. If she has had a calf previously, it would have been removed quickly and bottle fed. Sunny would have been sent to the milking barn to be mechanically milked. She has NO idea what popped out of her, causing pain. She has NO idea that it needs care or how to provide the care. Are there other cow/calf pairs that they can learn from ?

I’ve raised cattle for 30+years, you did the same things I do each time.😊 just trying to make sure all is good every time for every situation, and if something is not right try to figure it out. You did a Great job !

It looks like you got an animal that you love Help at all turned out well please put some updates on Them

Maybe look into teaching yourself hoof trimming or finding a hoof trimmer for problems like cracks in the cows hooves, a crack like that in the male, could result in a much worse problem because it traps muck really easy. Which at times is what can lead to problems like hoof necrosis, which is pretty unrepairable and causes the hoof to be eaten away by infection. I only now found your channel and i find your content really down to earth. Im in love with your baby heffer's colors. Shes so adorable with the glossy dark brown and white markings!

Whoever told you or where ever you read that it's within 20 minutes is wrong, it's best, but wrong that it would result in a dead calf.
