      @hornethunter9079 4 года назад +1

      Mike Bloomberg actually trained Mike Galloway how to pull a live breach calf via youtube video. To confirm that statement just personal message Bloomberg's office...his employee will verify the report.!!!

      But I could teach anyone how to have calves. All you do is put a bull with cows and the rest takes care of itself.

    Oh, Goliath's birth. I had thought he would be Moose, but Goliath is good too. There is a bit of bittersweetness in this in that we get one last glimpse of your sweet pup. Thank you for that.

    What a incredible save Mike.. you sure step up as needed to be a birthing helper when things go wrong. Thanks for sharing all the tough things to watch but the reality of cattle ranching. Stay safe you and your wife and keep those Wyoming life video's coming.

  • @DanKlein_1
    @DanKlein_1 4 года назад +23

    That sure brings back bad memories. The pull with one guy straining more than mamma. the successful delivery and then that 1 minute afterward that seems like an eternity.... will the calf breath on it's own and make that one huge last hurdle? That is the time I hate the worst. Having the calf move and be alive but unable to take it's first breath. So, glad goliath made it and you got another win. The hardest fought victories are the most rewarding.

    • @OurWyomingLife
      @OurWyomingLife  4 года назад +3

      I agree. That moment right after till the first breath seems like forever! Thanks for watching Dan.

I can tell with 110% you enjoy what you are doing and take much pride in your work also how much you care for your livestock the video emergency C section brought tears to my eyes but happiness at the same time how you did everything you could do to save the newborn live. Thank you for taking great care and pride in what you do

    How amazing! I love the wife and husband teamwork that is so apparent. My husband and I own our own cattle and help our parents run their operations in our "free" time. I really enjoy your videos and the corral system is amazing. I showed my husband the sorting gate setup after your Arrowquip chute and I am hoping to model ours corrals after yours (but with a For-Most chute). Normally it is just two of us working cattle so the more the efficient the better. Thank you for posting your videos!

    Holy mackerel when you were straining, pulling that calf my muscles were so tense pulling right along with you. I had to stop watching for a second and get my body to relax. Amazing you got a live calf from that breech birth even though it took so long. Good job catching on that she was in labor and you were able to save the calf. Real life on the ranch, you never know what's going to happen the next minute. Love your videos so much, puts me back on my farm. Best time of my life.

    @brandeissports3436 4 года назад

    What a big calf! I don’t blame mom for being upset. And breach too? Glad you all saved him. Working with the calves was always my favorite part. We had a dairy farm so all our calves were bottle calves after a day or two.

    • @OurWyomingLife
      @OurWyomingLife  4 года назад +1

      I wouldnt doubt that is why Mom was so cranky. Bottle calves are fun until they get a little to big- then they're a handful. Thanks for watching.

  • @sellison2192

So congradualation, Mike, Arin and kids care team you are now proud parents of bottle calf. Hey Mike ive alwas belive God has a sence of humor. I hope these bundles of joy can help with the 2 losses early in the year...big thumbs up to all you guys

    Wow. That was a big pull. Goliath is huge. Between that and him coming out breech, and having you back there messing around making things super uncomfortable, I can understand the mom wanting nothing to do with her calf. Btw, Both of the calves are real pretty. I love how their colors compliment each other.
    Take care everyone!

    Can't believe after 2 hours labor that baby was alive. I have seen Dr. Pole on Net geo wild deliver many beach births much the same as you did. Moms in labor longer than 2 hours don't have live babys. This baby is so lucky you watch them so close.😊💗

    • @kenrogers1994
      @kenrogers1994 4 года назад

      i called mine a calving aid, to help the cow calve as she pushes even with breeches if you only pull when cow pushes until the calf hips are out you can save alot of internal damage to the cow of course when the hips are out you have to go like hell a tip for mike always have the calving gear close to the yolk with other gear you may need for calving another tip after calving a breech attach chains or rope aroud the hocks then you can lift the calfs backside up and hopefully all the fluids will drain out or you could have a winch by the yolk to do similar
