I like to see how other operations go about their business. Oftentimes I learn things I may incorporate in my operation. Diversity of ideas is beneficial I think.
I got singed before! My two brothers changed an engine in a car and couldn't get it running, so they came and got me to see if I could get it running. After an examination I found they had the distributor in 180 off, So I said turn the key off and I'll set the distributor, Is the key off, yes, but when i took the distributor out to turn it, the key wasn't off, Well they had been pouring gas in the carb., which i didn't know, and the distributor wire touched something and there was this big explosion, and burnt off my mustache, eyebrows, and the front of my head off! and I couldn't hear for about 5 minutes! Then we got it running!
Thanks for sharing the video. A little bit different for you I'm sure. See they use some nice looking red tractors. They did well with only 5 open cows. Thanks again for sharing the video.
What was the " gell" squrited on the back for ?????? A good narration during the process would have been much better than the short one at the last.....
That was interesting. I have a vet. nephew who at one time worked out west on some of the large feedlot cattle ranches and he did the preg checking there. It is a lot of work and can be hazardous. This was quick and simple and worked well. Hope they have healthy calves. Thanks
Awesome love it very nice we have small beef farm in Pennsylvania we have had very good success with our 30 head over the years wish out a head gate surprisingly I would love to get one tho and set up of some type and ps if you could do a equipment tore at the farm I loved the looks of their equipment I like yours to I like seeing the new content you are doing a great job with your videos
Although I have not watched the full video as yet, I want to say it's nearly like watching a silent movie. There is interesting content...but...it's obvious inoculations are occuring, but why is a torch employed? Branding? What is being sprayed on the cattles backs? What is meant by " she's open"? How is pregnancy determined? My comments may be premature as I haven't completed the video...
Great video and super nice for them to let you video and share! I saw the shots, but what was the stuff being squirted down the backs - and why clip the tails? Is that a sanitary thing?
When I was growing up in south central North Dakota we had only one Holstein milk cow that was open in all the years of an average of fifty head . We also ran between ninety to hundred Angus stock cows that maybe one or two a year would be open . My father would keep a close eye on them day in and day out as to see how the bulls would ack each head of cattle . Husbandry is pretty much a lost art ? How many people are going to Google husbandry . In fact I will do it myself after this to see what it says , I know the meaning .
Boy have you got that right. The dairy I help out on uses ear tag pedometers because they can't read the cows and depend on the computers. Half the people working there don't know anything either.
Interesting how the ideas of Tom Dorrence and Ray Hunt have made it to a cattle farm in the Midwest yet 99% of people in the farm community have never heard of them.
Lots of work we milk 200 and feed around 300 beef animals. I am 60 and got bull dogged yest by 6 wght black bull . Cant move today . U need to be careful.
A bull, or bulls run with the herd or artificial insemination? I think i heard of 1 bull going through the chute. Wondering if such a high fertility rate is achieved by natural breeding.
Small time here, I run anywhere from 12-15 cows and my bulls (Angus, Simangus, or Herford... whichever my buddy wants me to winter) have taken care of business 95+% of time.

I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO GUY'S 😊
They’ve came a long way with equipment…I really like the ArrowQuip, excellent chute with head support…
Good job with the Angie
Awesome video guys!

What's with the torch?
966 is purring along
Great video and super nice for them to let you video and share!
I saw the shots, but what was the stuff being squirted down the backs - and why clip the tails? Is that a sanitary thing?
what was the torch used for?
Really nice the Vet lets you video this. Especially positive to see a young one. Why do you clip the tails?
I have been a cattleman for 50 years but I can't figure out what they are doing with that propane torch. Can you tell me?
Singeing the hair off their udder.
We used to use a small propane torch to singe the hair on the udders in the dairy barn. A lot quicker than clipping.
I was thinkin' a shot of warm milk. lol
Great video
What r they burning off ?

Where was this?
What's the pour on for?

How many calves will be lost due to vaccine adverse reaction?
O

Always hated that word, open.
