Based on my scientific study, for each one that complains about you not doing it the right way there are at least one hundred of us that just appreciate you sharing what you do with us.
I couldn’t have said it better!
Totally agree with this!!
Absolutely!
Fact check true. 😄 I checked my feelings and I agree, so its true.
I to agree and there's also a block button for the complainers!!! 😂
I feel like I've been watching your channel a while. I remember the videos when Rusty was born/named. Thanks for including your viewers in the life cycle of your animals on the farm.
Pete, that fade to black as Titus walks out to console Orden was a great transition, showing the combatants as friends still. These unexpected little gems are part of what makes your channel so watchable.
Awesome
Agreed.
Orton always loses. Poor guy. Being #2 isn't that bad.
Pete, please don't stop showing the bulls coming together. It is great to see, and I look forward to it each year. No one (bulls) gets hurt, and it is, as you say, nature. If folks don't like nature, they can turn off the video.
Well said. I've been looking forward to this meet for months!
Love the videos Pete and especially the variety of farming chores, construction, tractor rebuilds etc. The amount of time spent on each is about perfect. Don't change it😊.
I’m on team Ordun,......sigh, maybe next year🤞
That was funny about the turkeys. Wanted a front row seat.
My wife and I always look forward to your videos, sir! Thank you for all you do, your channel is by far our favorite on RUclips.
Thanks for video.God bless.
People just don’t understand the natural processes of keeping a heard of cattle. People’s ignorance shouldn’t influence your content Pete. You’re doing a great job buddy 👍🏼.
And we all know...ignorance can be cured by gaining knowledge but stupid just stands alone.
Yes!
Natural animal instincts and tendencies don't exist unless it serves to highlight some arbitrary point someone wants to make for the uninformed and ignorant.
The folks that commit about "bull fighting for sport" think meat only comes packaged from the grocery store.
Heard? Herd. LOL. Those damn ignorant people ..........
It never gets tired of watching Pete and Hilarie adventures of taking care of their Animals.
I for one am so happy that you guys have made the decision to keep making the every day life of the farm part of your videos. I learn something new as well as enjoy seeing you guys working together sharing your lives. Was so happy to see this video this morning it always makes my day a little better, thank you guys
Very true
I love the tractor rebuilds and I love the simple farming tasks. Something that is most enjoyable is the way you manage, the way you think everything through and the beautiful family tradition you farm with- thanks for great content Pete and Hillarie!
You are not the only one who is thankful, I enjoy and relish the 'peace' your videos give me. Thank you
I so loveee your farm equipment, it's a pleasure to admire them after you repair them and the best part is the new paint, such beautiful restoration they look brand new! I love each one of them and often follow you when you're restoring them, quite interesting and all the knowledge and work you put in them! And you know what you're an inspiration to new generation of young farmers following in your footsteps! I don't know if you know "the veggy boys" and "stable life" families and their pages but they both have a young friend named Pete, that watches your videos and is also a farmer, he bought his first tractor, one of ur small ones and he's done restoration on it and says he love the old tractors and the easy handling and restoration! He's not in the videos often, he visits and helps and one time brought his red tractor and talked about it, I like him a lot and reminded me of you Pete! ❤
Pete, I appreciate all the effort you put in to your videos. Please don't stop showing things like the bulls fighting, people need to see the reality of farming.
You truly make the most sensible and smart decisions!
The "come on cows" is unique and what is amazing is that the cows do come!! I like ALL your videos and I look forward to each one. For me is the variety that keeps me interested, restoration or farming. The main attraction is your character. Warm regards from Athens, Greece.
My wife and I wait all year for the annual recombining of the herd. My wife has been asking about it almost daily for a couple weeks. She felt sooo bad about Ordin last year. All the belly aching and his pouting after losing last year.
Pete, I just want to say I am addicted to your channel. I just can't wait for the next one. Please keep the content coming I even have my wife hooked. C'mon Cows!
I like the new plan. I really enjoy the diversity in your videos, animal scenes, mechanic work on the tractors, market visits, and hay work. It is all interesting.
Oh man, loved this video. The elementree joke, the piggers, Ordin & Titus, felt so sorry for poor Ordin all on his own, your plans and the way forward. I will just persevere during winter when there's more tractor stuff.
Felt a moment of sadness for Rusty and big pig ❤
Always like to see the family (including Ezra) interaction.
Glad to see a fresh episode.
You brought my spirits up when they were down today.
My goodness, goodbye Rusty, and JJ. I have enjoyed following Rusty since he was a baby calf. He looked in fine form as he went. Congratulations Billy, Brownie and Bossy :) Can't wait to see Billy’s little piglets. Enjoyed the annual bull competition. It looks like you have some good pasture for this time of year Pete. Thank you Pete and Hillary.
I'm thankful you take the time to post your videos. Thanks, Pete!
Love your channel! Negative nonsense doesn’t count. Negativity is the language of the incompetent. Sad always when there is a trip to the butcher. Nice to see the bulls playing. Looking forward to the tractor projects. Hope you, Hillary and family have great week!
Thanks Pete. Once again you have reminded us that change is not an event but a process. Others have stated and most of those who follow you would probably agree, that slow and steady growth is much prefered to rapid and possibly chaotic change. Glad to see that your choice with the new shop follows your well established pattern. The journey continues. Health and continued happiness to you and your family. From a faith follower in Utah.🙂🙂
Hello Hilarie & Peter. Great video today! Bulls did well. looking forward to the animals that will deliver later. Enjoy the meat that you cooked. Be well. 🥰
My wife thinks I am crazy but I really enjoy your channel. As a kid I lived across the street from a farm in Cupertino, Ca. I spent a lot of time over there. Farmer Frank raised cows, chickens, guinea hens, and rabbits for meat and eggs. He was okay with us, me and my neighbor, catching lizards in his wood pile as long as we didn't bother his cows and chickens. The only other kids allowed through the fence were his grandkids. Every once in a while he would put us to work moving the cows and chickens around but mostly he had us hunting for guineas nests/eggs. On rare occasion he would take us up to his ranch in the foothills where he kept the bulls and the rest of the herd. We weren't allowed near the bulls, not that we wanted to be,
they were big animals and they were mean. Your channel brings back a lot of fond memories of the farm animals. I still do some work on my own cars, not as much as I did, so I enjoy the tractor work as well.
This is one of the highlights of your channel. I love to see nature in action and the power of these bulls are incredible. Good job.
Hey Pete !
Love your tractors and critters !!!
Stay the course , you're right on target !
I find the bulls Reuniting so interesting. I would love to watch the entire process.
Love to see the two bulls interact, it's a natural thing that nature does. Just keep your channel going in the same direction.
I love watching nature in action... period. All animals socialize in their own way. Its recognizing the signs being displayed that makes a good farmer, anthropologist, archaeologist, zoologist, vet. :)
Thank you for your videos,I love them all. I’m stuck in an office for 9 hours a day and I escape to the outdoors by watching your videos.
I always really look forward to you and hillereia putting the herd together it makes it feel complete.
I look forward to seeing how Titus and Ordin are going to work it out each time. Thanks for sharing!
You sure do brighten my day! Thank you! 😊
I support everything y’all do and thankful for knowledge you share to us all.
I loved Hillaries reaction when the cattle got aboard.
I did to . But I had to go back and watch it again. I was working and had it playing in my ear . I heard that and was like oh no what just happened.
Pete, I think highly of your wit and intellect. You stay hopeful and efficient. Just remember, farming is hand and glove with praying.
I look forward to the meeting of the bulls each year. It looks like you showed less footage this year but I do appreciate what you do.
Gonna be a great day Pete has uploaded!! Sit in the tractor cab and watch.
Sounds like a great plan to start with just the shell for the new building. Looks like Titus and Ordin's battle was a little less severe than other years. Ordin only had a small raw spot on his head this time. He always looks so sad when he walks away from the battle. Sad to see JJ gone. Glad you always take care of them with the least amount of trauma and pain. 👍👍👍
I believe the folks that make the negative comments either are jealous? or unaware of raising farm animals for food source. You and Hillary show much compassion in all you do. I have been around farms and farm animals a good part of my life. All you show is so normal. Thank you guys for all you do and show. I love the “chirpy” sound the turkey’s make.
Pete, trust your instincts. Love your channel, love the animals and the tractors. Keep up the great work.
Been routing for the underdog for 3 years
Absolutely, love your videos. Pete glad to see ordon and Titus back together. The Dream team. Glad to see that You guys are not so overwhelmed. Have a fantastic week.
The first contact between Ordin and Titus was more like "Hey bud, long time no see". Fascinating.
THANK YOU for sharing the bulls sparing. As you said, ALL herds have a pecking order and the way it's established. It's normal, people.
Sounds like a good plan. Have a wonderful day, and blessings to you and your family!
I NEVER miss a single one of your videos. Matter of fact, I look forward to them. I love the updates on the animals and the happenings of the farm however, I must say that you make it all work. Your personality is 75 percent of the reason I watch. You are the glue that keeps the channel interesting. Your narration, insights, wisdom and yes, your jokes are the finishing touch to just a few acres farm. I also must add Hillary in here as well. I also enjoy the work you do on the machinery. I'm certain there is a reason you've not mentioned starting a second channel for all the gear heads?
Same here,...Pete is the uncle that I never had working the farm and teaching us all about real life.
Nice choice of T-shirt today. I'm a native of Oregon and am a HUGE Ducks fan! Thank you for representing them from across the US! Please, keep the videos coming. I look forward to them! Whenever I see a new one posted, it's the first one I watch that day!
Good to see Pete and Hillary again The annual running of the Bulls with Titus and Ortion.
The great farm moves forward with a plan. I do love the tractor restoration which each one I understand and learn more and more. Thank you for including us.
I think that you have made a good decision. It will be a lot nicer to have a place to bring in your biggest piece of equipment and have the room to work on it. I love the videos of both the animals and the mechanical side of it. We used to repair all of our own equipment and usually had to do it in one of the barns. So good luck with it all.
I felt the calmness at the beginning of the video. Rusty's been around for awhile.
I love your videos!! They are great examples of how working at something you love can pay off. Please don't change a thing.
We are just here for the Dad jokes 👍
This is one of my favorite farming channels! Thanks for another good video! I love the old tractors!
I really like how Titas goes out to console Ordin. They are buddies after all.
I love your channel just the way it is. Please keep telling your farming story just the way it is. People really need to understand the reality of farming. Love to you and Hilary. Keep up the outstanding work!
Really appreciate all the great videos you take the time to make Pete Really looking forward to the restoration work this winter
It takes courage in this day and age to keep farming I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Good luck with farming and hopes for a good profit
It really does. Thankfully he did things right in life to afford to do this. And having his RUclips channel really helps. It helps with the world to . In a small way but a big way for people like us . I pray for them to
Sir, I would never presume to tell you how to run a farm....I am always bewildered that anybody would do that. I love the videos, all of them. Animals and tractors.
I know you addressed the butcher's new building in a previous video, but it really is a lot snazzier isn't it? Much like your new shop will be 😊. Your tractors really outgrew your garage. Funny, my cars did the opposite. 30 years ago there was plenty of space underneath them to work, now something gets stuck when i try to slide in
You are guys are great ❤ I love your videos. Please keep it up ❤❤❤
Great to see a video today! Hope all are well! Thanks for “keeping it real” with another great video.
You treat your livestock with such kind and humane methods. It's refreshing to see you take the time to be extra kind and respectful toward them.
Thank you Pete and family! 😊
Another enjoyable day on the farm ❤
Pete, it’s going to be a good winter! Looking forward to farm and shop content, thanks for sharing both!
As life for a pig goes, JJ had it nice. Nothing wrong with how you handled things with him. It was about as good as it gets, and he never suffered. Keep up the fine work!
This might sound a bit corny, but I appreciate how there's not much dialogue during the beginning of this video, as though the purpose was to show respect to the two that went to the butcher. Great video as always!
Thank you all for your videos! I truly enjoy each and everyone of them! Keep them coming.
You definitely have awesome ideas Pete stay with it at the end of the day it's all your decision I love watching everything because that's what I do for a living is farming and a lot of these folks don't know what it's all about have they done it every day they would understand I like the way you break up things you don't get bored to the content
I want to leave my $.02 I think you have a great balance showing the overall picture of your farm life. You do you Pete, the channel is a success because of you.
In this video I vote for Hillary's happy dance right after the steers were loaded on the trailer as the highlight. Always celebrate the victories!
Farm is looking great i love your animal video and I also love your tractor videos like i mentioned on your last video you do an amazing job on both i dont see you doing one with out the other i hope you continue with both contents tractor restorations and working with your animals good luck with your new shop project pete thank you for sharing blessings to you and your family
Pete, I am very happy about your video today and very relieved about your decisions! Sounds perfect! Thank you for the great content and wish you all the very best!
Hi Pete and Hillary, I used a couple of your jokes at my son's wedding during the toast to the groom. I used the one about the guy who had eye surgery, the doc asked him if he wanted the good news or the bad news, and the one about the Himalayan Deer. Not everybody gets the one about the eye right away (a perfect dad joke), and the deer joke was well placed since we had just finished steak. The other joke I told was to tell my other 2 sons to cover their ears since I plan to re-use this material, then I said Michael is our favorite child. It was a good evening, everyone had a good laugh, thanks.
Pete, you are but a few of my favorite channels that I always look forward to watching on RUclips. I do have a soft spot for those who are led to slaughter.. I remember last season you had your pigs in the trailer and you can tell some of them were frightened when you arrived at the slaughter house. One guy was facing into the side of the trailer as if to feel invisible but you could tell that poor guy was terrified of what was to come. I understand these animals are raised for just that reason, I don't believe I could do that part of the job, my heart would ache for those taking there last steps in life. I thoroughly enjoy the majority of your videos Pete, you have a kind soul and your wife is such a sweetheart. Wish you could film more of those Saturday markets, incredibly satisfying.
thanks Pete always a pleasure seeing your farm and family, keep up the great videos!
Pete, I'm going to tell you the same thing that I tell other channels who are questioning about what direction their channel should go. REMEMBER WHAT VIDEO CONTENT THAT GOT YOU TO WHERE YOU ARE. Some of my favorite channels have gone to crap because they changed their content. Especially when they start to push products. To me that's a big turn off. Just keep a steady do what you're already doing and you'll do just fine. ( And don't ever talk about religion or politics).
Thanks. I wouldn't touch those last 2 subjects with a ten foot pole, especially nowadays.
Considering the amount of followers you have here, percentage wise there will always be a few one way or the others with opinions to match.
For me ( and certainly many more) this weekly intrusion upon your life is about as real & honest as it gets.
The good, the bad, and the ugly are all a part of daily life, but your approach seems to focus more on the favorable moments in life that create memories.
Keep up the good work, these videos bring back some very fond memories for those of us that were exposed to farm life at a very early age.
I know if you get discouraged when working on one of your tractors ( it is an immense amount of labor) a quick ride on the MD will bring back the satisfaction of a job well done.
This quality I find in each of your endeavors, whether it is cows, chickens, turkeys, eggs, tractors, mowers, feed, or chores. The results speak for themselves.
I love Hillary’s meen green shirts, she makes chores look effortless, and we all know they certainly aren’t.
I trust your judgement, go for it !!!
My only advice on a shop is the classic - "always go bigger" - there's never enough room! Pork was tasty!
You trailer is a CornPro trailer and my grandpa works there. CornPro is located in Odon Indiana thank you for buying a CornPro trailer
Titus and Ordin tell the wonderful story of your enchanting channel !
Please keep posting the releasing of the Bulls. It’s one of my favorite things!
Enjoy every year when you reunite the herd together. Wish more people would understand pecking order.
I love your videos and probably always will. They are down to earth and real. You are a great inspiration and proof that there are still some good honest people on this planet. Words can not describe how much I appreciate you both. Life would not be the same without you in my life. Thanks for the time and effort to make videos to share with us.
I miss the farm and when I was over seas these helped me a lot to not be so lonely. Now that I am back in the USA. I am looking forward to get my farm going.
And with the bulls, keep showing. These is how people learn how it is in the real world. If there is more then one, thy have to see who is the boss. It has to be these way. Most of the time they don't hurt each other it's just who's going to be boss.
YAH!!!! FROM Hillary at beginning everyone thinks because the beef got loaded. BUT, it's because she got her tractor repair shop. 👍👍👍
Not sure what I enjoyed the most....Billy's smile, the 856 update or watching you cut up that delicious slab of meat...What a great ending as always.....mmmmmm. Thanks Pete.
Theres nothing wrong with a good bull tussle. Just this morning I put feed in the bunk feeders for my boss and one bull was standing there munching away, the other one came behind him and picked him up, threw him competely over the feeder face first upside down. He rolled over got up, made a noise and kept eating from the other side. They walked off together just fine when they were done, just the way cattle do things. Keep it up we love watching!
THE KEY TO HAPPINESS IS BEING THANKFUL.
Thanks Pete and Hillary! Also, Thank You Farm-All!
Love these videos. You have two great bulls. P.S. Enjoy the channel just how it is a mixture of the day to day farm life.
It was hard to watch Peanut and Rusty go but I didn’t care for them for two years and I eat beef so I’m not complaining. Instead it makes me more thankful for farmers that do the hard dirty physical and emotional work for my steaks and roasts. And also to the cows, pigs, chickens etc., that literally give us life with theirs.
The “middle ground” on the channel sounds good to me! Another great video, thanks to Hillary, you, and the family!!!
Hi Pete
I look forward to your shows in the week you provide a few minutes of humour, thought and values, as they say please "carry on carrying on" now I'm 60 the way it takes me back to my childhood on my Granddad's farm please please continue to do what you do as long as you can.
Nigel
Old Stoker retired
Thanks Nigel.
Thank you very much for being a real American famer. After seeing your video, I'm so home sick for my youth on a farm... looking all the relationships between the animals and realizing how they interact. God Bless.
This channel is your ship and you and Hillary are the captains. Whatever makes you guys happy make us happy. Be well, be blessed. Sorry Orden hope you feel better tomorrow. Be good big guy. 😊
