I’m Jasper’s Mom and he was sooo excited to hear you got his letter!! Thank you so much for making his day!! Both my boys will be getting Gierok hats for Christmas too!
Farm Journal used to have the "Ada the Ayrshire" comic. My favorite was probably an image of woven wire fence with round holes in it, and the caption said "Cattle don't really sleep, they are to busy testing your fences". If they CAN get out, they WILL get out! Great video, been there, done that!
I always was a Holstein guy, Started with mostly grades and then about three years later started switching my grades to Registered as my kids were getting to 4-H age and wanted them to feel good about their show animals and they were rewarded with some fine wins and showmanship awards.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING. WATCHING YOU AND YOUR FATHER REMINDS ME OF MY MANY REWARDING DAYS WORKING ON MY GRANDFATHERS DAIRY FARM. HE ALSO HAD A MIX OF HOLSTEINS AND SWISS.
Funny about the leaves for bedding. We used newsprint from a local paper before they started recycling ♻️ it in the 90s. We used a round bale shredder to blow it into these talls.. Then, we had a potpourri packaging plant that supplied us for a short time. We had the best smelling Holsteins in the state of Ohio!😂
My family up in northern Pennsylvania are still milking over 200 head of Holstein cows. The farm was just awarded "Bi-centenial" farm. The farm has been in the family over 200 hundred years.
My husband and I catch all of your videos soon after they are posted and very much enjoy all of them. In response to your question regarding favorite cattle breed; We raise a herd of 25 Belted Galloway cattle (Oreo cookie cows 😊) and love them dearly. They are smaller stature than some cattle breeds, polled, very gentle, easy to handle, thrifty and great mothers. All the best from your Canadian neighbors.
You sure have a beautiful farm And great looking livestock. This is one of your best videos Not many farm like yours Especially the area i live in Southern Michigan. This is the problem with our country, not enough TRUE family farms. Lots of work, but what a great farm you have.
You don't often make videos of a typical day or chores, but often those are most interesting, just to get a since of what you do most days, how it differs from other farms. I know if you showed more you'd be afraid of the content getting too stale, and you probably want to get most of them done without filming, but it can be nice just to see from this video to the next chores video, how much stays the same and all. It's certainly not something I'd get bored of seeing. :)
I grew up on a dairy farm, your hilly ground reminds me of it alot. It was the highest point in our county and usually referred to as the hill. The place was bordered on the north by a state highway and on the east by the Sac River with 20 to 30 feet of limestone bluff above the river keeping the cattle from getting out was always important so they didn't get on the highway, or get onto the bluff. Once a cowboy on the bluff and fell in a crevasse with only her back visible. It is no easy thing to block and tackle a live cow out of a tight spot. Another time a full term cow fell off the bluff and was badly injured. She delivered the calf while down and we built her a nest and cared for her there at the base of the bluff. After a couple of weeks she was improving and trying to get up so it was time to try moving her. We built a skid and dragged her onto it, built a raft and used our DC Case belly deep in river, luckily it was a rocky bottom and a sand bar where we could get in on the far side. We dragged the skid onto the raft, then towed it across the river and up the sloped bank onto our neighbors farm. Once there with some help she was able to get up. We got her home and she recovered fully. Her calf survived too and went into the dairy herd later. Nobody had front end loaders on tractors then so everything was done by land or with poles for levers. We had Jerseys on the dairy, with milking short horns and other breeds added one cow here, one cow there but the herd was 99% Jersey. They are my favorite both for looks and that butter fat for rich milk, cream and home churned butter. We had beef cows on other property stretched down the highway across the county line, mostly Herefords and some Angus but we preferred Jersey for our home beef. That yellow fat isn't as pretty but when you cook steak or roast you can cut it with a fork. On a side note, having all our cows on highway frontage we hadca car through one of the fences about once a month. I have seen a lot of red speckled Normandie cattle, but see some specked jerseys.
Fabulous share, really enjoyed it. I guess your bull calf has a bit of Jersey in him. They throw speckles and brindle when crossed on holstien. The Normandy would normally show a broader head and a dished face. Take care!.
My whole herd was out in the middle of the road one night , heard an air horn, and got up to see what was going on, and I found out what was going on!! They somehow got the gate down! hey, that's cheating! I use to have to fork out of a silo for 120- 90 in the barn, and 30 switch, and fork it in a wheelbarrow , one load to 4 cows! love your channel!
We raised white faced Herefords on our farm. I still love them over black angus. That was what we raised for baby beef. For milking we had Holsteins. My favourites are white faced Herford's and Holstiens.
My favorite cows are Guernsey. I worked on a Guernsey farm for 14 years. I also had holsteins. My family on my father's side had one of the top jersey herds in the state of Vermont.
We always had Holsteins. We milked around 80 head all together with young stock kept around 120 head and farmed around 400 acres. Lots of hard never ending work but its a good way of life being your own boss.
I really enjoy all your dairy farm videos. I watch each video again, this time with the closed caption option turned on. It's funny to see how the closed caption sometimes differs from what you actually say. Here's my favorite from this video. You said: "What's your favorite breed of cow?" Closed caption said: "What's your favorite burrito cow?"
We milked around 40 Holstein, Jersey and a Blue roan or 2 but my favorite cow is the Pinzgauer. We now raise beef and use Pinzgauer mixed with Dexter and Hereford bulls
Galloway are my favorite, and only as of about a year ago, I found a good deal on a cow calf pair, and momma was bred too, so now I got three of them. Don't totally know what it is, I just like em!
Great looking cattle. Everyone in family and farm I spent every summer on were all Holstein. So I'd that is my favorite. Cattle are worse than kids when it comes to getting in trouble. LoL Thank you for taking the time to share part of your life with us.
Really nice to see a small family dairy where all family members get along Was not so when I was growing up on a family dairy farm You guys are doing a great job!
When I was little we had a mix of Jersey, Ayrshire, Holstein and mixed breeds. When a teenager we were transitioning to all Holstein. We bought about a half dozen registered Holstein calves all from different farms. Never followed up on the breed registry. Are stalls were made for Jerseys and the Holsteins didn't fit. We modified the stalls and lost 1 stall in every 10. I would have rather stayed with Jerseys myself.
Thanks for sharing the video. I enjoy watching them. We milked B grade when I was a kid at my Grandpa's farm. We had guernseys and Holstein cows. I always liked the Guernseys but I like the Holstein cows as I worked on a couple grade A dairys when I was young and they milked Holstein cows. We had more beef cattle on our place and we had Hereford and we got to adding black Angus to the herd. I'm partial to the Hereford. I like all cattle and hogs as we were diversified. Y'all have some beautiful stock. That speckled calf is pretty. I guess it could be a Jersey Holstein cross since it looks a little bit small. Y'all take care.
the cal,f looks like a gernsey which is my favorite milk cow. favorite meat cow would be charloise (sp??). haven't worked a farm for many years so until have lost touch until i started watching you guys
What beautiful calves, I am amazed with your twin heifers, it is so great to see just how wonderful you treat your animals, just like your own kids!! One question I have, growing up on my Grandparents dairy farm in New Jersey, our main cow barn was a stanchion stall barn, but the manure gutters were on the perimeter, and the feed bunks and the cows heads were down the center aisle. The manure gutter was just a concrete gutter space, no chain, you had to clean it out all by hand. It was 11 stalls on a side. I have pictures of when they built it, I believe in the early 30's, I have pictures of my Grandfather bringing loads of extremely large tree logs on wagons pulled by horses out of our woods, I am sure they were sawed up on site for the lumber to build the barn. I have never seen a barn stall arrangement like this before, only like with your barn, with the manure gutters on the inside center of the barn. Was this a unusual way to construct a cow barn back then? Be very interested to learn what you and others may know about this!! Thanks again for such a great dairy farm channel, best to your family!!
My favorite is jersey cows never owned many just like coloring cows at your place have it made you take such good care of them and they take care of you just like God ment it to be love your farm
No shortage of exercise feeding silage with the wheelbarrows. Your animals are a contented easy handling bunch!!! The calves sure like the extra attention.
I bet the calf is a normande we got some normandes that look like that one. Favorite breed would have to red and white Holstein with lineback in 2nd place. For beef either speckled park or pinzgauer.
You know what's the story on the silo? Noticed it looked liked it was added on to at some point from the 2 sets of white blocks. Such a beautiful farm. Be fun working on that farm
I remember coming to milk on Christmas Eve the third milking of the day to find 80 cows out. Of course it was raining and 30 something degrees and to add to the fun I had no help. I'm kinda liking the HoJo cows we've freshened. They are bigger than a Jersey smaller than a Holstein and really put together nice.
I was most partial to Holsteins in my dairy days. I was pretty fond of the Jerseys as well although they seem to have required extra care around calving time. Raising beef now and really like my red angus.
Though not Dairy cows , lMy favorite would have to be Hereford bulls. Not seeing them here much anymore on the Florida / Georgia . That is a pretty calf.
Another great video so funny I never thought of all the times the cattle got out whether it was calf up to whole herd you guys make great videos and bring back so many memories always like Guernsey’s and Ayrshire but I had all the dairy breeds when I milked cows!
I have hiefer that is 1/8 jersey- 7/8 holstein that has the same markings as your bull calf. Holsteins favorite here,but l I do like the ones with a little jersey mixed in.
14:12 I mentioned one's before, about a video on breading Holstein and Belgium blue,it makes real good looking combination for stockers, my name is Walter,and enjoy you-all presentation vary interesting. Keep te good work, be blessed
Great job you guys. I enjoy watching your videos. I’m just over in northern lower Michigan on the west coast. I must say the twins are really cute!! It was funny to see them question River! They will learn their place AFTER they learn how to separate from mom. lol. Oh and it was funny to see how the cows play with the camera lol. Well keep up the good work and Happy belated Thanksgiving and early Merry Christmas
Thank you for making great content. We have a Hereford beef farm in NW IL so we enjoy your videos and watching your family work together! So, of course, we’re partial to Herefords as our favorite ❤❤❤
Love the cattle. The twins calves have a look that I really love, but that speckled calf was a beauty too and so was the Roan. I always enjoy seeing your doing things with the cattle. Their reactions to everything can be pretty much predicted, but their ability to surprise you by getting out or licking the camera adds just that extra touch. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. I think the Brown Swiss always reminds me of deer. We see deer fairly often, especially right now, but last summer, right in the middle of Lansing, Michigan, we had two fawns (not real young, but with the spots still distinguishable) come out of a wooded area to get a drink at a water puddle next to a doctors office. I even got a picture of them. I find it interesting that animals like that can live out their lives in a town of that size. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
As a former dairymen and a current beef cattle farmer it is frustrating when they get out and get somewhere they don't belong. I have learned those to not take out my frustration on the cattle whichever type they are especially when it comes to things like a gate to negligence was probably on my part. LOL!
@@guydaubenspeck9206 Your right, that added touch of unpredictability can be very frustrating. But you gain the most by not taking it out on them. That is something that applies to all area of life. Right now I am having troubles with totally different things, windows 11 and a cat that wants to meow tonight. My dad had 1 cow, but he worked nights. The cow would always have her calf or get out when he wasn't there. But my mom took it in stride. Wish I was more like her. Anyway, sorry for the rant, but its been a tough day and this hit a nerve. Hope you are having a good year and welcome to December.
Great video as always. I really like your cattle very SHARP. Are the twins heifers ? They really look good. I grew up with Holstein and Brown Swiss and a few Jerseys. Then my dad liked Black Angus. My grandfather had Red Herfords. So I like them all. To hard to pick a favorite. Your speckled one looks like one we had that was a short horn mixed with a Jersey but ours was red and white. Thank you for doing your videos.
I’m Jasper’s Mom and he was sooo excited to hear you got his letter!! Thank you so much for making his day!! Both my boys will be getting Gierok hats for Christmas too!
yes
There’s something about hand feeding cows that always made me smile. It’s satisfying in some way. Thanks for sharing!
Farm Journal used to have the "Ada the Ayrshire" comic. My favorite was probably an image of woven wire fence with round holes in it, and the caption said "Cattle don't really sleep, they are to busy testing your fences". If they CAN get out, they WILL get out! Great video, been there, done that!
Brown Swiss . Beautiful animals. The cows are very protective mothers
Brown swiss are my favorite. That calf definitely has some Jersey in it.
This was a really good video, love your channel.
The new calf's are growing fast
I I always liked Herefords you have beautiful cows
My favorites in order are Ayrshire, Holstein, short horn and Jersey. Love the videos, I don't comment much anymore but I'm still watching.
Hello enjoyed your video. I like a white face cow. Lots of work well done your cows are well cared for. Have a good day.
I always was a Holstein guy, Started with mostly grades and then about three years later started switching my grades to Registered as my kids were getting to 4-H age and wanted them to feel good about their show animals and they were rewarded with some fine wins and showmanship awards.
An absolut nice video . Regards from germany
THANK YOU FOR SHARING. WATCHING YOU AND YOUR FATHER REMINDS ME OF MY MANY REWARDING DAYS WORKING ON MY GRANDFATHERS DAIRY FARM. HE ALSO HAD A MIX OF HOLSTEINS AND SWISS.

And the Brown Swiss twins are so cute 🥰
That is a wonderful dog with a glorious feathered tail!
The calf looks like an Ayrshire cross because I don't see any red coloration. Great video. Always perfect. Thanks so much.
My family up in northern Pennsylvania are still milking over 200 head of Holstein cows. The farm was just awarded "Bi-centenial" farm. The farm has been in the family over 200 hundred years.

Hey really appreciate the video always enjoy watching videos about farmers and farming brings back a lot of precious memories thanks
You sure have a beautiful farm
And great looking livestock.
This is one of your best videos
Not many farm like yours
Especially the area i live in
Southern Michigan.
This is the problem with our country, not enough TRUE family farms. Lots of work, but what a great farm you have.
That calf definitely has the Normandy markings for sure. But it might be jersey and Holstein also. Great videos. God bless
Thank you for showing the dairy & dairy-cows with the twin calves. Nice well-fed calves. Good farm vibes.😊😊
Jersey are my favorites. Love those kitties❤

from northern ny up by canada logged for years partial to white face cattle raised quite a few

My favorite cows are Guernsey. I worked on a Guernsey farm for 14 years. I also had holsteins. My family on my father's side had one of the top jersey herds in the state of Vermont.

We used to have Jersey and Guernsey cows and some Brown Swiss. I think my favourite was the Guernseys. Great video. All the best 🇬🇧.
My favorite is the Montbéliarde cow. More duel purpose. Also excellent to crois with HF
Had Jersey's @ the very small dairy farm in my youth, got to have that butter fat. Tillamook dairy on the northern Oregon coast has a lot of Jerseys.
Thank you for another great video. Awesome looking calves 👍👍🍻
I really enjoy all your dairy farm videos.
I watch each video again, this time with the closed caption option turned on. It's funny
to see how the closed caption sometimes differs from what you actually say.
Here's my favorite from this video. You said: "What's your favorite breed of cow?"
Closed caption said: "What's your favorite burrito cow?"
That's funny!
Jersey and Ayrshire are my favorite breed
Love the daily chore videos, more please
We milked around 40 Holstein, Jersey and a Blue roan or 2 but my favorite cow is the Pinzgauer. We now raise beef and use Pinzgauer mixed with Dexter and Hereford bulls
That calf looks like a cross between a jersey and Holstein. My favorite is the brown swiss. I like their coloring
50 k subscribers! Let’s gooooooooo!

For milk I like Jerseys, beef black angus. When we had our dairy farm in PA we had black and red Holsteins.
I think that calf is a Jersey. My favorite, Brown Swiss.
No shortage of exercise feeding silage with the wheelbarrows. Your animals are a contented easy handling bunch!!! The calves sure like the extra attention.

Best part - St. Bernard drinking out of the waterer.
You know what's the story on the silo? Noticed it looked liked it was added on to at some point from the 2 sets of white blocks. Such a beautiful farm. Be fun working on that farm
Great to see you guys
I remember coming to milk on Christmas Eve the third milking of the day to find 80 cows out. Of course it was raining and 30 something degrees and to add to the fun I had no help. I'm kinda liking the HoJo cows we've freshened. They are bigger than a Jersey smaller than a Holstein and really put together nice.
Black Angus is my mainly my beef herd, also have few herefords, and simintal. Located in New Hampshire
Favorite Fleckvieh but never had brown swiss
MY FAVORITE IS WHEN YOU WORK WITH the Cows. What are your plans for the twins? ❤❤❤❤❤LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos……..
I was most partial to Holsteins in my dairy days. I was pretty fond of the Jerseys as well although they seem to have required extra care around calving time. Raising beef now and really like my red angus.
My favorite cows 🐄 are Ayrshire and jerseys and line back cows 🐄 .
Oh yes! We even gotten a phone calls over the years from our neighbor saying YOUR CATTLE IS OUT!
Texas longhorn is my fav.
My hat has arrived but I’m waiting for Christmas before I paint the town.
My favorite breed is Ayrshires followed closely by Brown Swiss. My guess on the calf is Holstein Milking Shorthorn cross.
Though not Dairy cows , lMy favorite would have to be Hereford bulls. Not seeing them here much anymore on the Florida / Georgia . That is a pretty calf.
thank you
Enjoy all your videos, cows are looking good, I lke Angus
Another great video so funny I never thought of all the times the cattle got out whether it was calf up to whole herd you guys make great videos and bring back so many memories always like Guernsey’s and Ayrshire but I had all the dairy breeds when I milked cows!
Great video. I was wondering how you all were taking feed from the yard silage pile. Thanks for sharing.
I have hiefer that is 1/8 jersey- 7/8 holstein that has the same markings as your bull calf. Holsteins favorite here,but l I do like the ones with a little jersey mixed in.
Great looking calf my favorite breed of cattle scottish highland and dexter.
I like how you and your dad take care of your cows and crops. Did you get my letter yet this is Craig Arbet?
14:12 I mentioned one's before, about a video on breading Holstein and Belgium blue,it makes real good looking combination for stockers, my name is Walter,and enjoy you-all presentation vary interesting.
Keep te good work, be blessed
My favorite cow is the brown swiss
Great job you guys. I enjoy watching your videos. I’m just over in northern lower Michigan on the west coast. I must say the twins are really cute!! It was funny to see them question River! They will learn their place AFTER they learn how to separate from mom. lol. Oh and it was funny to see how the cows play with the camera lol. Well keep up the good work and Happy belated Thanksgiving and early Merry Christmas
Michigan is pretty isn't it. We have been up there a few times, but reside in the middle of the state.
Thank you for making great content. We have a Hereford beef farm in NW IL so we enjoy your videos and watching your family work together! So, of course, we’re partial to Herefords as our favorite ❤❤❤
thanks guys
Milking shorthorn is my favorite breed
Love the cattle. The twins calves have a look that I really love, but that speckled calf was a beauty too and so was the Roan. I always enjoy seeing your doing things with the cattle. Their reactions to everything can be pretty much predicted, but their ability to surprise you by getting out or licking the camera adds just that extra touch. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
I think the Brown Swiss always reminds me of deer. We see deer fairly often, especially right now, but last summer, right in the middle of Lansing, Michigan, we had two fawns (not real young, but with the spots still distinguishable) come out of a wooded area to get a drink at a water puddle next to a doctors office.

I'm sure what the calf . Favorite bread is Guernseys.
I like Charlois for beef cows, and Jersey for dairy, although I've never had a dairy herd. I do like to feed Jersey steers for the freezer.
I liked the hilarious part where the cow was licking the camera at 2:29.
Jersey's and Red Angus
Great video as always. I really like your cattle very SHARP. Are the twins heifers ? They really look good. I grew up with Holstein and Brown Swiss and a few Jerseys. Then my dad liked Black Angus. My grandfather had Red Herfords. So I like them all. To hard to pick a favorite. Your speckled one looks like one we had that was a short horn mixed with a Jersey but ours was red and white. Thank you for doing your videos.
