    For those who know, separating cows from calves in the pens can be a rodeo. The Sonne team made it look like a walk in the park. Fun to watch those who are great at what they do….hope cattle prices soar🍺🍺🍺

    This, @13:46 is what is called an "IRISH TRAFFIC JAM" along the countrysides of Ireland. Even better when a shepherd is moving his flock of sheep from one field to another field. And all you can do is shut off your car in the middle of the road and the sheep surrounds your car as they are walking past your car to the field.

    You and your dad and uncle Jeff are we the finest herdsman around the Midwest. Sincerely appreciate the way you care for your herds.
    The processing setup you now have is one of the best around. Like that scale in your processor so you get the weight of your calf. Nice setup. That rubber mat you have is nice also.
    Your herd of calves look real nice. Great herd. You and your dad have a herd to be proud to for sure.
    Good to see tiny dog.
    About it and thanks for everything.

    If you are going to use the Airequip set up again will you show us more weights of the cattle. That’s a new addition & I’d like to see more of the cattle weights.

    It was cool that you all were petting the calf in the chute. Really cool.

    @rogernation2551 5 дней назад +1

    Man, all that hard work paid off in spades with the chute. What a slick operation. Three guys to work 60 head that fast was impressive.
    When I was your age and younger, it would take half a dozen cow hands and the same amount of horses to get that done.
    We would ear mark and brand though, so that’s going to take extra time. Were you using rubber bands for castration? And was your dad slipping that on behind the calves and doesn’t get kicked? That’s double tuff! Great video, thanks for sharing

  • @sharonbeneke4016
    @sharonbeneke4016 4 дня назад +1

    This is for Brian and his hands.
    My thoughts from the tractor seat.
    These hands.
    I was belittled in an attempt to humiliate me over my hands, they said I had sausage fingers and rough, ugly hands.
    I don’t know why, but I was embarrassed about it. Then kind of irritated and offended at the remark.
    I got to thinking… I have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. My hands have done so many things, there have been a few things I’m not too proud of, but for the most part they have served me well and been used for well doing. Although now I’m starting to feel it, as arthritis is kicking in and my joints are beginning to remind me of all the abuse I’ve subjected them to.
    As a child these hands played with Tonka trucks and tractors in the dirt, climbed trees, and held the handlebars of everything from tricycles to motorcycles, the reins of pony’s and crazy broncs and mules… they’ve resisted pencils, papers and school books, and instead have enjoyed baiting hooks and throwing rocks and sticks…
    They learned to repair motorcycles, automobiles, and tractors.
    They’ve stroked and petted animals with love and tenderness… and have been bitten a few times by them too. I’ve learned how to care and nurture animals with them, sometimes against their will, and dug holes to bury the ones that didn’t survive.
    These hands have learned how to use wrenches and hammers, saws and all assorted tools, in spite of a few mishaps that occasionally left scars and blue fingernails.
    They’ve learned how to finesse both pocket knives and gun triggers. My hands have both broken and repaired, built and destroyed many things.
    These hands of mine have held newborn babies, and tenderly consoled children…they’ve held the hands of the elderly and the dying.
    My hands have felt the warmth of the only woman I ever loved, and the bitter cold of steel on a frozen winter’s day.
    They’ve clapped with joy in celebration, and have helped to lift the fallen, they’ve wiped away my tears, and held my face in sorrow.
    They have built a life and a home, and provided a living for my family…
    Being a farmer they have planted seeds and nurtured crops that have helped feed millions from all the hard work they’ve done.
    Looking back I’m not ashamed, but rather proud of what they have done over the years… for they’ve done far more good than they ever have evil.
    Looking at a mans hands is the first chapter in the story of his life that only he can tell.
    Ephesians 4:28 …but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
    What will your hands do??
