Glad she’s still hanging in she looked really good so maybe she’s strong enough to get through it. Then the antibiotics giving her a greater chance. I can promise there hasn’t been a RUclips channel I’ve watched and waited for the next video like I have this one! Continued prayers for TxCow ❤
Garden hose run water in her introduce the hose with your hand when inserting leave the hose in and use your hand to scoop out the remaining parts good luck
The other thing I would do is specially on first-time mommas is bring them up. you can keep track or at least have an idea of when they're getting close and bring them into a smaller closer area or monitor them with a camera and you can prevent a lot of being worried too easily nowadays with technology LOL even with the Drone you can just fly over and see if they're taking too long
I was wondering if the vets have something like pitocin that can cause her to go into labor and have contractions and be able to deliver whatever else is left. I’m so glad she’s hanging in there. Poor mama. Thanks for giving us an update. Bless this mama.
I was thinking exactly the same. I didn't know what pitocin was, so I looked it up. We call it sintocinon in the UK, but it's all the same. These animals are mammals, so they must have something similar.
I’m from Los Angeles. These last two videos have been quite an education. You weren’t babbling. You were sharing your life with us!!! We saw Love and heartache plus the the things we weren’t shown. God Bless you and Marissa.
Agreed! Not babbling but "thinking out loud", processing what was happening and pondering options. Bless you Cross Timbers Bison for educating your viewers on the real deals of ranch life. Praying Texas cow does fine and recovers to have red dogs in a year or so. She's spunky.
Dusty, you are an exemplary bison rancher. You have done more than a lot of people would, and continue to give Ms.Texas the best care possible. Prayers for you all to heal and persevere through this trying time.
What? Are u saying other ranchers of valuable stock wouldn't get their animal vet help or do what they could on their own? Watch Dr Pol to see farmers and ranchers in action.
@@joywebster2678 You misunderstand I have witnessed farmers/ranchers in recent times that would not have tried to help Ms.Texas expel her dead calf, they only panic and try to get any veterinarian to come do what Dusty did, even though it cost them a valuable young cow. Not saying that other ranchers aren't as dedicated to their animals as Dusty, just that some aren't as dedicated to the animals as they are to the money and status, unfortunately. Hope this clarifies my perspective.
@@joywebster2678 many would have marked her as a lost cause and got the vet to come put her down, others would get a vet to come do the procedure then have to either deal with a non breeder or put her down cause the vets dont always get there in time. few, like dusty, would go in there and pull the dead calf themselves.
If you didn’t get it all and she lives you will be incredibly lucky. I have been up to my arm pit in a cow and saved her and another that I didn’t save. Good luck and God Bless. Havagudun bud.
Dusty, I had a similar situation once in my yak herd. Although we were able to get the whole dead calf out. The vet gave antibiotics and I kept that yak cow up in an individual pen for a week to monitor her. She came through fine and rejoined the herd and went on to have other healthy calves in the following years. Your care for the bison is second to none! Good work! Congratulations on the sponsored video!
@@neva.2764 it starts decomposing the second it dies. Usually if you don't get them out within 24 hours the cow, or in this case bison, has very little chance of surviving.
I think all of us have been waiting for this update. Glad for you, that she is hanging in there. Sure hope that what you did for her and are currently doing will be enough to save her. “Being prepared for the worse, but keep hoping for the best” is the name of the situation here.
Thank you for the update. Yes, Antibiotics are probably the best bet at this time. She's already emotionally and physically horribly stressed. I only thought the birth area was flushed after open c- sections? Natural birth of mammals ie cows etc its hopefully able to pass ( after birth etc)and the antibiotics and good nutrition for now is wonderful. Keep talking softly and reassuredly to her. She knows and trusts you. As someone with animals, pay attention to her scent. You already know what is normal and when to get more assistance with her needs. God bless her, you, yours and all your family and friends. You do what you have to do...❤
YES, the waiting , and worry about a Mother bison, on a ranch halfway across the country….I saw the header “ We did what we could” and was braced for bad news. Then, I am overjoyed to see her on her feet, very much alive. I have a good feeling that she will make a full recovery. I know there were many, many prayers for a miracle. To bring a new life into this world, takes a lot of love, and and suffering and sacrifice, pain, and commotion, Joy and sometimes sorrow and loss. I laid awake and remembered when I was full term with my first child, and my cat was aslo full term .We would have a baby and kittens in our home at the same time. Oh, the joy! . My cat disappeared for 2days, and my husband searched for her, she had found a spot in the basement and was in labor. he took her to the vet, and i got the call, he couldn’t save her, kittens stillborn and she died. I begged my husband , please do not let that happen to me!! My son arrived safely and he gave me 4 grandchildren. i dream about when the great grandchildren will come. And dream about many more little red dogs for Dusty in the years to come, and one of them a special reward from Miss Texas. ❤ Dusty, you are a shining example of a good shepherd, you gave everything you had to save just one..
I think that's the prettiest bison I've ever seen. Look at her eyes! I'm hoping that the doc can either induce labor contractions or clean her out the best he can. Thank you for caring so much about your animals!
Oh Dusty, I am so sorry again that you and Marisa had to go thru that. I will continue to keep you all in my prayers. Thank you for keeping us up to date. I truly appreciate it.
My hat's off to you Dusty. What you did for the Texas cow would have been impossible for most of us, but that's what "separates the men from the boys" so to speak when it comes to the highs and lows of being a rancher/farmer. Watching the last video, I got the feeling she instinctively followed you and cooperated with you because she sensed./trusted that you could help. It goes without saying that you have our respect and prayers for a good outcome. On a lighter note it was great seeing Mr. D and his herd enjoying the pond.
They usually say “ something crawled in there and 😢died😢, and you never know it till it is way too late. 😢. Glad you love our 🦬 bison!! Keep up the great work!!😊
Omg this goes to show how hard farmers work is, and how stressful and emotionally taxing it is. So sorry that happened to you Dusty and Marissa, stay strong. Farmers need to be appreciated more, especially dealing with bisons
DUSTY and Melissa great video, hope the Tx bison will make a full recovery really soon, prayers for her . By the way why was Melissa jumping all over place at the end of the video??? Hope she is okay, have a wonderful day and bless you all. David B., Utah. 🇺🇸🐕🐓❤❤❤.
Dusty I am so sorry you and Marissa had to experience that with your Texas cow . She definitel knew something was wrong and she trusted you to help her . I love your channel as well as Arm's Family channel because of the honesty and caring both families share with us . I hope the Texas cow can recover . She was healthy and strong before this tragedy so let's hope for the best . Love and prayers are sent .
Hope all the prayers and positive vibes being sent your way heal the Texas Momma Bison. The trust she demonstrates clearly shows that you are there to help her. You and Marissa have done (and continue to do) an incredible job. Will be watching for updates.
Thank you for the update! Thank you for doing all you can to save Tx Cow she is so worth it. You can see the trust in her eyes. I will continue to send healing strength, courage and love.
So, so, so glad to see her still on her feet! This video made my whole day!! Prayers for her to continue healing! Much love and respect for you and your beautiful family!!
You and Marissa did an incredible intervention with the Tx cow. Isn’t it something how they know who to trust and go to when they feel they need help. May she be strong enough to get past this and heal from it. Bless you and your family for all that you do for those beautiful Bison. Thanks so much for the update.
My ex husband was a LA vet & I rode with him for 30 years. Please ask your vet about intrauterine Furacin (sp) boluses. They are a yellow bolus. My ex used to put 2 or 3 in the uterine cavity for this for long acting antibiotics. Also ask about possibly a uterine flush. This is very sad but a fact of life. Even if she makes it her productive years most likely will be over. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 it has a good outcome.
I am so sorry you and Marisa had to go through this. It is really quite obvious that you really care for your bison! Continued prayers for a speedy and full recovery for that TX cow ❤🙏🦬🙏❤️ She seems to be very sweet. And yes, she knew you could and would help her. She trusts you.
My Cousin miscarried but they left the baby in to "naturally pass", it was early in the pregnancy but far enough along to identify pieces. Pretty traumatic for her. Supporting Texas Cow with Antibiotics and something to cause her uterus to expel what you were unable to reach is the best that can be done for her. You two were a wonderful team, working together. Prayers for her full recovery.
I'm guessing that your cousin lives in Texas or one of the several other states that have recently (in the past year courtesy of the Supreme Court deciding that Roe vs Wade decision wasn't a right for women to continue to have when it comes to their healthcare, cause let's be honest, Republicans don't care about women or people in general unless it's a relative of their own) passed laws that outlawed care for abortions or even miscarriages (the bodies natural abortion reaction when it determines that the body of the mother or genetics of the baby-> fetus isn't suitable for life of the mother or baby)......(?) Hopefully, your cousin's body (uterus) was able to pass EVERYTHING (all of baby's body parts, amniotic sac and placenta) and nothing was retained as she could still be at risk of infection or worse (as I'm assuming that this was a wanted pregnancy/child) potential for causing infertility (inability to carry another pregnancy to term safely or even be able to get pregnant again) or even cause death to your cousin herself.
This is why you have to vote blue leaving the baby to rot could cause death or so much damage she could never be able to carry to term it so sad on so many levels. I have been a nurse 30 years and the fact that parts of the countries infant /maternal deaths have spiked to numbers from the 60's! Politicians should not be allowed to decide what happens ya know doctors go to school 8 to 10 years for a reason. Yet you have Politicians saying can't a woman swallow a camera to look in the uterus, it's almost like they never had sex with a woman or never had 6th grade basic anatomy
@@AnnJo24224 carrying a deceased fetus is DANGEROUS if the mother's body doesn't expell it or doctors don't act in a timely fashion/manner to remove something that is starting the decomposition process the minute the heart stops beating. Even more importantly, if the mother's body (uterus) doesn't expell everything associated with the pregnancy (see my initial response) then everything from future chances at getting pregnant to death (again, see my initial response) is a possibility. A miscarriage (human non-medical term) for what is happening (spontaneous abortion-> an abortion performed by the mother's body because either something is wrong with the mother's health or the mother's body detects something wrong at a genetic level with the fetus/wanted pregnancy). However, even with a spontaneous abortion=humanities term of miscarriage the mother's body has to expell all parts of the pregnancy cause the mother's life becomes a ticking time bomb for everything from issues to future ability to get pregnant to death herself as a result of infection from not expelled uterine contents that are decomposing.
Dusty, thank you for sharing your passion(s) with us. City girl here with 'a few' decades behind me and all I've ever known about Bison I've learned from you (and sometimes even 'with' you)!!. This latest situation with 'Ms. Texas' is more than anyone could expect, let alone even try to handle. Your attention and efforts with her these past days truly reveals your heartfelt care, concern, love and respectful relationship with all in your entire herd, your ranch, of course your wife, child and family AND your viewers. Yes, indeed, she knew she needed help and remarkably, 'so far, so good'. Sorry many of us haven't the know-how to be 'helpful', but please know that we're staying strong and hopeful for you/yours AND 'Ms. Texas'. 🤞🤗 🙏
You did a great job. Once you finish getting her taken care of, you'll know what additional items you need to keep on hand. Ideally, she should have been induced as soon as you got her in the pen so all of the calf would have been passed by now. Praying for the best!
*YOU DID GOOD, DUSTY!!!* The fact she was on her feet in this video is a good sign. Her eyes are bright, she isn't looking stiff and you said she was eating! All good signs! On the other hand... *HOW IS DUNBAR THE MOST HANDSOME BISON EVER?!?!?!?!*
Dusty, you & your wife have already helped "Texas Momma" & given her a better chance of surviving, you've done the best that you can. I hope she makes it xx😊
I’m hoping this TX cow makes a full recovery ….. I can’t imagine doing what you had to do ! This just shows us how dedicated you and Marissa are to your animals ! Take care
The Bison are so beautiful and majestic swimming across the pond...So glad the Texas Cow is doing a Lil better..Praying she comes out of this and is better than before...
I prayed over her, that she make a complete recovery 🥰 that Mama is a warrior! Bless you for your gigantic heart & tremendous efforts! Don't lose faith! 😊❤
Dusty and Marissa, THANK YOU for sharing this with us. I know it's hard, I know how much you care about all your animals and you see them as the gift from God they are as well as you take seriously when God said He has given us charge over the animals. I have watched your channel from the time you started, when Dusty was still teaching and you first got your little starting herd. We are SO proud of all you and Marissa have done and how you have grown with your ranch(s), physically, emotionally, and personally. I have used your channel as a teaching tool as a homeschooling Momma, and this is so important to our learning. My oldest is going into the 6th grade, and this will be part of his lessons when school starts in a few weeks. We have been deep diving into America and exactly what was, is and will be, what we have lost as a Country and those who are trying to save the things we are on the verge of losing. (The 3 and 5 year olds will have to learn this part later) and this is critical to my oldest, to ME, to know and understand to preserve life, ALL LIFE that God has given us. You did NOT ramble Dusty, without someone teaching, we fail to learn, without knowledge we fail to preserve. Don't ever apologize for carrying enough for your herds and US to care for them and TEACH US!! (God made you a teacher for a reason) I can tell you because of you and Marissa, your Mom and Kevin, these animals have a special place in my heart. I knew about them but never understood them until you allowed us to take this journey with you! If I could ranch any animal I would want it to be Bison because of YOU GUYS! Thank you for caring for them, and for us. For sharing the truth and DETAILS good and bad so we can understand the reality of caring for these majestic creatures. I'm not sure y'all understand what a gift you are to us, and how deep the lessons and preservation roots run just from what you're doing. Keep up fighting for these gifts, we will keep supporting and most of all PRAYING for the animals, your ranch, BOTH places, and most of all for you, Marissa and Brooks. Well Done Dusty, well done!
I have been watching your channel for a short time. I went back to watch older posts to get a sense of you. Your mentor back when you were with him at a national park (?) and learned about bison. He saw something special in you. And we see that same something special today. What you did for Cow 1503 was nothing short of exemplary. I am completely captivated. I have the bell on to notify me so I can see what happens next to Dunbar, Eleanor, Big Joe, Belle Star, Peaches.....and now your TX cow. And your tough and beautiful wife right there by your side. Captivated!
I grew up on a dairy farm and yes this did happen. But way back then Vets came out to the farm and handled the situation. Sorry i cant help. I do hope she does recover though. The remaining parts of the calf really need to be evacuated. I dont know the meds for bisons to help with this problem though. I am hoping for you that she has a chance to survive. Bless you.
God Bless that beautiful animal! She had been through so much… Prayers for a full recovery and a long healthy life after this devastating event. Love to you and your family….
You're a tough man, Dusty. God bless you 'cause you clearly love your animals & do whatever you need to take care of them. We love Ms. Texas. Hope she thrives. I didn't know the Texas Bison story. You're a good man to rescue damaged or maltreated animals & nurse them to health. God bless you, all your family, & all the ranchhands working with you. ❤😂
Sending Prayers to your family and for the TX cow in her recovery. It is always a wait and see kind of thing with animals on a ranch. I hope Marisa is okay after getting out of those boots. I grew up in TX and am familiar with all of those little critters around the ponds. Just watch out for cotton mouth snakes they can be bad. So happy to see that you are sponsored by my very favorite Fishing Clash!! Have a blessed rest of the week & weekend!!
So sorry Dusty for the Texas cow’s unfortunate loss of a calf. I was crying when I realized what you were having to do to try to save your beloved bison. Thanks for remaining transparent in your struggle, I’m not sure most of us could have handled it with as much grace as Marissa and you did. Both of you are a great team and I appreciate your sharing your venture with us. Continued success in saving the mama bison.
Ditto!! Both lost calves brought me to tears!! Dusty, you and Marissa handled that and shared that with such grace!! Not babbling in any way, sir!! The entire series of events just reiterated all the love and respect y’all have for your animals!! That brought me to tears, as well!! We are all praying for TX cow!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
It's amazing how she seemed to know yall where going to help her. ❤ I hope she gets through this rough time. Also I think she's earned a name. Maybe something Texas themed. Dallas or Rose (for the yellow rose of Texas)
Dusty, I have been thinking of that TX momma today and have been wondering how the out come has been. I am keeping all of your family in my prayers over all of this. I grew up around cattle farmers and understand that even when all seems to be going well and right, there are those not so pleasent twists that pop up. The momma cow knows you are there to help all of them, thus she knew to come to you for help. You did well and are doing all that you can do. Keep the faith, brother, keep the faith!
Oh my goodness ❤ God bless her sweet heart and yours!!! She knew you were going to try to help her and you did!!! 😇 Great job young man!!! I admire your dedication to those beautiful animals. God bless you and your beautiful family 😇❤
Thank you so much for the update on Texas Mama Bison. I was worried about her. I hope she makes a full recovery. Thank you for all that you are doing to try and save her. She is a beautiful Mama.
Dusty and Marisa, our hats are off to y’all. Everything you have been thru. You’ve done well. Our prayers are with you all and the Texas cow. We love you’re channel. 👍❤️
You two are doing a wonderful job of caring for the bison. You had me laughing when she got in the fire ants and ran to the mud. So cute seeing you take care of her out there. "Get those boots off, girl!" LOL
Hello Dusty & Marissa It had to be rough. I know you are worried about Ms. TX . She clearly understands that you are trying to help her. 🙏🏻 Blessings ❤😊
Dusty I know this must be so hard for you and Marisa , our animals are so precious to us I know that you’ve done everything possible to save her calf and the mama. Praying that all goes well and Hope she survives we subscribers fully support you and your decisions. God Bless 🦬🦬🦬🦬🦬
Thanks for the update on your Texas cow. Quite the ordeal you had getting the stillborn out. If that occurs God forbid as an Army Medic sometimes it was necessary to apply Vicks vapor rub under your nose for the Oder. Hopefully she’ll recover well. 🙏🙏🙏🦬🦬🦬
I just happened on ur u tube video.. I really loved it… for a young couple to take on a bison farm is very impressive… I didn’t think you were rambling, I know these bison mean a lot to you, not just for the sake of success or money but because you care about these animals and I love that. Thank you for sharing your life with us! I subscribed!
Fun to watch the Bison taking a dip in the ol’ swimmin’ hole 😅 Thanks for the update on Tx cow. We were all waiting. Surviving 😊this far is a good sign. Maybe ask Doc about more antibiotics and medication that might cause contractions to expel the remainder. Best of luck and sending some serious prayers for this momma.
Thanks for the update ! So glad she's still hanging in there ! Marrisa and you did a fantastic job caring for her ! I know that was traumatic . Praying for all of you !
Really tough situation. Brutal all the way around. And what a smart cow coming to you for help. I really hope she makes it and goes on to pass those smart genes to a bunch of future babies.
Dusty & Marissa I am so sorry for your loss. I can imagine that these animals are more than Bison = Its personal. Many people could not have done what you had to do. Because of you she was less stressed than she could have been because she knows you, and she trusts your. Thats impressive. Thank you for all you do for your animals. Your kindness and caring go above and beyond for them. Also thanks for sharing their lives with us. It means so much to me. God be with you two and her.
I have been looking for the update on the TX cow. So happy to see she is doing ok. I have been praying for her to recover completely and will continue to. Dusty, I gotta say I thought you were losing your mind a little bit when I saw you with the kids fishing 🎣 pole. Lots of laughs . I will be watching for further updates. You guys are doing a great job.
guys, great respect for youre love for the bison,and how you take care the best as you can, but these things happens sometimes! love and respect from the netherlands, europe.
You never ramble. My husband and I enjoy all your videos. Always educational and enjoyable to watch. We absolutely love you and your family. God bless y'all for all you do.
I'm so sorry for what your going through. I work at a vet with small animals. If this were a dog it would be emergency surgery and spay. So different for these huge animals. I can tell you truly love your animals ❤❤

Farmers AND Ranchers! Definitely don't get enough appreciation from our society.
Amen to that. Appreciated & Respected! Good Job, Dusty & Marissa!❤

Respect for the (small) farmers that raise our meat and produce.
I admire your care, and attention to detail, re welfare of your animals.
Sending love and lots of prayers to the TX cow that she is watched over and protected and makes it through this ordeal, and she makes a full recovery
So glad to hear that Texas Momma is doing well...Sending positive thoughts and prayers that she will fully recover. Y'all have a blessed day.
gosh was waiting to hear about her ... she is hanging in and knows you are helping her ... prayers for you all ‼️
Dusty I am so sorry you and Marissa had to experience that with your Texas cow . She definitel knew something was wrong and she trusted you to help her . I love your channel as well as Arm's Family channel because of the honesty and caring both families share with us . I hope the Texas cow can recover . She was healthy and strong before this tragedy so let's hope for the best . Love and prayers are sent .
Love watching those majestic Bison cross the pond 🦬🦬♥️♥️
Hope all the prayers and positive vibes being sent your way heal the Texas Momma Bison. The trust she demonstrates clearly shows that you are there to help her. You and Marissa have done (and continue to do) an incredible job. Will be watching for updates.
Thank you for the update! Thank you for doing all you can to save Tx Cow she is so worth it. You can see the trust in her eyes. I will continue to send healing strength, courage and love.
So, so, so glad to see her still on her feet! This video made my whole day!! Prayers for her to continue healing! Much love and respect for you and your beautiful family!!
You and Marissa did an incredible intervention with the Tx cow. Isn’t it something how they know who to trust and go to when they feel they need help. May she be strong enough to get past this and heal from it. Bless you and your family for all that you do for those beautiful Bison. Thanks so much for the update.
My ex husband was a LA vet & I rode with him for 30 years. Please ask your vet about intrauterine Furacin (sp) boluses. They are a yellow bolus. My ex used to put 2 or 3 in the uterine cavity for this for long acting antibiotics. Also ask about possibly a uterine flush. This is very sad but a fact of life. Even if she makes it her productive years most likely will be over. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 it has a good outcome.
lt IS a miracle she is still alive. Prayers for her recovery & so you can find a potential reason so you can keep it from happening again. 🙏🙏
Dusty, We could tell she was coming to you for help, and then you were soooo gentle with her. Bless you. Praying for the Texas cow.
Very sorry to hear about this second tragedy in one season. I hope that TX cow pulls through.
I am so sorry you and Marisa had to go through this. It is really quite obvious that you really care for your bison! Continued prayers for a speedy and full recovery for that TX cow ❤🙏🦬🙏❤️ She seems to be very sweet. And yes, she knew you could and would help her. She trusts you.
The sounds at the pond were beautiful. Listening to the rhythm of the bugs, hearing the bison in the water.... beautiful.
Thank you for helping her so much! I know it’s hard to help these magnificent animals.
My Cousin miscarried but they left the baby in to "naturally pass", it was early in the pregnancy but far enough along to identify pieces. Pretty traumatic for her. Supporting Texas Cow with Antibiotics and something to cause her uterus to expel what you were unable to reach is the best that can be done for her. You two were a wonderful team, working together. Prayers for her full recovery.
I'm guessing that your cousin lives in Texas or one of the several other states that have recently (in the past year courtesy of the Supreme Court deciding that Roe vs Wade decision wasn't a right for women to continue to have when it comes to their healthcare, cause let's be honest, Republicans don't care about women or people in general unless it's a relative of their own) passed laws that outlawed care for abortions or even miscarriages (the bodies natural abortion reaction when it determines that the body of the mother or genetics of the baby-> fetus isn't suitable for life of the mother or baby)......(?)
Hopefully, your cousin's body (uterus) was able to pass EVERYTHING (all of baby's body parts, amniotic sac and placenta) and nothing was retained as she could still be at risk of infection or worse (as I'm assuming that this was a wanted pregnancy/child) potential for causing infertility (inability to carry another pregnancy to term safely or even be able to get pregnant again) or even cause death to your cousin herself.
This is why you have to vote blue leaving the baby to rot could cause death or so much damage she could never be able to carry to term it so sad on so many levels. I have been a nurse 30 years and the fact that parts of the countries infant /maternal deaths have spiked to numbers from the 60's! Politicians should not be allowed to decide what happens ya know doctors go to school 8 to 10 years for a reason. Yet you have Politicians saying can't a woman swallow a camera to look in the uterus, it's almost like they never had sex with a woman or never had 6th grade basic anatomy
No mother should have to carry a dead child. Sorry for your loss.
@@BlackBilbywhy not? I would prefer that way instead of medication.
@@AnnJo24224 carrying a deceased fetus is DANGEROUS if the mother's body doesn't expell it or doctors don't act in a timely fashion/manner to remove something that is starting the decomposition process the minute the heart stops beating. Even more importantly, if the mother's body (uterus) doesn't expell everything associated with the pregnancy (see my initial response) then everything from future chances at getting pregnant to death (again, see my initial response) is a possibility.
A miscarriage (human non-medical term) for what is happening (spontaneous abortion-> an abortion performed by the mother's body because either something is wrong with the mother's health or the mother's body detects something wrong at a genetic level with the fetus/wanted pregnancy). However, even with a spontaneous abortion=humanities term of miscarriage the mother's body has to expell all parts of the pregnancy cause the mother's life becomes a ticking time bomb for everything from issues to future ability to get pregnant to death herself as a result of infection from not expelled uterine contents that are decomposing.
Dusty, thank you for sharing your passion(s) with us. City girl here with 'a few' decades behind me and all I've ever known about Bison I've learned from you (and sometimes even 'with' you)!!. This latest situation with 'Ms. Texas' is more than anyone could expect, let alone even try to handle. Your attention and efforts with her these past days truly reveals your heartfelt care, concern, love and respectful relationship with all in your entire herd, your ranch, of course your wife, child and family AND your viewers. Yes, indeed, she knew she needed help and remarkably, 'so far, so good'. Sorry many of us haven't the know-how to be 'helpful', but please know that we're staying strong and hopeful for you/yours AND 'Ms. Texas'. 🤞🤗 🙏
You and Marissa did a great job Dusty with the Texas cow. She deff was looking for help from you❤I pray she makes it.
You did a great job. Once you finish getting her taken care of, you'll know what additional items you need to keep on hand. Ideally, she should have been induced as soon as you got her in the pen so all of the calf would have been passed by now. Praying for the best!
*YOU DID GOOD, DUSTY!!!* The fact she was on her feet in this video is a good sign. Her eyes are bright, she isn't looking stiff and you said she was eating! All good signs!
On the other hand... *HOW IS DUNBAR THE MOST HANDSOME BISON EVER?!?!?!?!*
Dusty, you & your wife have already helped "Texas Momma" & given her a better chance of surviving, you've done the best that you can. I hope she makes it xx😊
Y’all are doing a great job taking care of the Bison. 🙏 she continues to do well.
You guys are awesome ❤
I’m hoping this TX cow makes a full recovery ….. I can’t imagine doing what you had to do ! This just shows us how dedicated you and Marissa are to your animals ! Take care
Thankfully she HAD the weight to keep her alive so long...and hopefully she'll make it through...
She's a very good cow bison temperamentally♡
Any updates on tx cow? Been a few days. Hope she is doing well.
You and Marissa continue to do everything you can to care and save these beautiful animals. You are good people.
Thank you Dusty. You've done all you can. Marissa and you are the best too. And your cutie Brooks. Canada 🇨🇦 fan.
She looks a little better. Thank you for giving us an update❤. All I can do or say to help you is that I will pray!
The Bison are so beautiful and majestic swimming across the pond...So glad the Texas Cow is doing a Lil better..Praying she comes out of this and is better than before...
I prayed over her, that she make a complete recovery 🥰 that Mama is a warrior! Bless you for your gigantic heart & tremendous efforts! Don't lose faith! 😊❤
Thank you for sharing the news about the TX cow. Prayers that she survives.❤ You weren't babling...you were giving us an education.
Dusty and Marissa, THANK YOU for sharing this with us. I know it's hard, I know how much you care about all your animals and you see them as the gift from God they are as well as you take seriously when God said He has given us charge over the animals. I have watched your channel from the time you started, when Dusty was still teaching and you first got your little starting herd. We are SO proud of all you and Marissa have done and how you have grown with your ranch(s), physically, emotionally, and personally. I have used your channel as a teaching tool as a homeschooling Momma, and this is so important to our learning. My oldest is going into the 6th grade, and this will be part of his lessons when school starts in a few weeks. We have been deep diving into America and exactly what was, is and will be, what we have lost as a Country and those who are trying to save the things we are on the verge of losing. (The 3 and 5 year olds will have to learn this part later) and this is critical to my oldest, to ME, to know and understand to preserve life, ALL LIFE that God has given us. You did NOT ramble Dusty, without someone teaching, we fail to learn, without knowledge we fail to preserve. Don't ever apologize for carrying enough for your herds and US to care for them and TEACH US!! (God made you a teacher for a reason) I can tell you because of you and Marissa, your Mom and Kevin, these animals have a special place in my heart. I knew about them but never understood them until you allowed us to take this journey with you! If I could ranch any animal I would want it to be Bison because of YOU GUYS!
Thank you for caring for them, and for us. For sharing the truth and DETAILS good and bad so we can understand the reality of caring for these majestic creatures. I'm not sure y'all understand what a gift you are to us, and how deep the lessons and preservation roots run just from what you're doing. Keep up fighting for these gifts, we will keep supporting and most of all PRAYING for the animals, your ranch, BOTH places, and most of all for you, Marissa and Brooks.
Well Done Dusty, well done!
Very nicely said. Awesome.
Dusty,thank you for being a wonderful bison handler,please keep us posted on the mama's progress prayers going up.stay safe
I have been watching your channel for a short time. I went back to watch older posts to get a sense of you. Your mentor back when you were with him at a national park (?) and learned about bison. He saw something special in you. And we see that same something special today. What you did for Cow 1503 was nothing short of exemplary. I am completely captivated. I have the bell on to notify me so I can see what happens next to Dunbar, Eleanor, Big Joe, Belle Star, Peaches.....and now your TX cow. And your tough and beautiful wife right there by your side. Captivated!
I grew up on a dairy farm and yes this did happen. But way back then Vets came out to the farm and handled the situation. Sorry i cant help. I do hope she does recover though. The remaining parts of the calf really need to be evacuated. I dont know the meds for bisons to help with this problem though. I am hoping for you that she has a chance to survive. Bless you.
God Bless that beautiful animal! She had been through so much… Prayers for a full recovery and a long healthy life after this devastating event. Love to you and your family….
You're a tough man, Dusty. God bless you 'cause you clearly love your animals & do whatever you need to take care of them.
We love Ms. Texas. Hope she thrives. I didn't know the Texas Bison story. You're a good man to rescue damaged or maltreated animals & nurse them to health.
God bless you, all your family, & all the ranchhands working with you. ❤😂
Sending Prayers to your family and for the TX cow in her recovery. It is always a wait and see kind of thing with animals on a ranch. I hope Marisa is okay after getting out of those boots. I grew up in TX and am familiar with all of those little critters around the ponds. Just watch out for cotton mouth snakes they can be bad. So happy to see that you are sponsored by my very favorite Fishing Clash!! Have a blessed rest of the week & weekend!!
Thank you for the update. I'll be praying for a good outcome
We had a collie mix that used to smile at us all the time. It made me smile to see that grin. I hope against hope that Texas Momma pulls through.
So sorry Dusty for the Texas cow’s unfortunate loss of a calf. I was crying when I realized what you were having to do to try to save your beloved bison. Thanks for remaining transparent in your struggle, I’m not sure most of us could have handled it with as much grace as Marissa and you did. Both of you are a great team and I appreciate your sharing your venture with us. Continued success in saving the mama bison.
Ditto!! Both lost calves brought me to tears!! Dusty, you and Marissa handled that and shared that with such grace!! Not babbling in any way, sir!! The entire series of events just reiterated all the love and respect y’all have for your animals!! That brought me to tears, as well!! We are all praying for TX cow!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
It's amazing how she seemed to know yall where going to help her. ❤ I hope she gets through this rough time. Also I think she's earned a name. Maybe something Texas themed. Dallas or Rose (for the yellow rose of Texas)
You are doing an awesome job, Dusty. Your wife is a trooper!!
I pray she recovers quickly. Marissa and you are doing a tremendous job ranching these bison.
I’m sure I’m not the only one that was praying for you and your bison. God knows the end from the beginning. He will help and guide you.
Dusty, I have been thinking of that TX momma today and have been wondering how the out come has been. I am keeping all of your family in my prayers over all of this. I grew up around cattle farmers and understand that even when all seems to be going well and right, there are those not so pleasent twists that pop up. The momma cow knows you are there to help all of them, thus she knew to come to you for help. You did well and are doing all that you can do. Keep the faith, brother, keep the faith!
Prayers ,that your cow makes it . Thank you for the update.
Was so relieved to see she is still alive! Take good care of her, and keep us updated! ❤❤🦬
Oh my goodness ❤ God bless her sweet heart and yours!!! She knew you were going to try to help her and you did!!! 😇 Great job young man!!! I admire your dedication to those beautiful animals. God bless you and your beautiful family 😇❤
Thank you so much for the update on Texas Mama Bison. I was worried about her. I hope she makes a full recovery. Thank you for all that you are doing to try and save her. She is a beautiful Mama.
Dusty and Marisa, our hats are off to y’all. Everything you have been thru. You’ve done well. Our prayers are with you all and the Texas cow. We love you’re channel. 👍❤️
So sorry you both had to go thru this!! Praying she will get whole and well again!!
You two are doing a wonderful job of caring for the bison. You had me laughing when she got in the fire ants and ran to the mud. So cute seeing you take care of her out there. "Get those boots off, girl!" LOL
Hello Dusty & Marissa
It had to be rough. I know you are worried about Ms. TX . She clearly understands that you are trying to help her. 🙏🏻
Blessings ❤😊
So glad she is still hanging in there. You did your best, Dusty.
Bless that beautiful Mother .. I pray for her full recovery
I love your precious wife! She understands the role of helpmate.
Dusty I know this must be so hard for you and Marisa , our animals are so precious to us I know that you’ve done everything possible to save her calf and the mama. Praying that all goes well and Hope she survives we subscribers fully support you and your decisions. God Bless 🦬🦬🦬🦬🦬
Thanks for the update on your Texas cow. Quite the ordeal you had getting the stillborn out. If that occurs God forbid as an Army Medic sometimes it was necessary to apply Vicks vapor rub under your nose for the Oder. Hopefully she’ll recover well. 🙏🙏🙏🦬🦬🦬
I hope Texas Momma will recover. Your and Marissa are a strong team. Strength to the two of you. Will be waiting to hear the next news.
Love watching you & your bison. Amazing creatures ❗️😊
I just happened on ur u tube video.. I really loved it… for a young couple to take on a bison farm is very impressive… I didn’t think you were rambling, I know these bison mean a lot to you, not just for the sake of success or money but because you care about these animals and I love that. Thank you for sharing your life with us! I subscribed!
Fun to watch the Bison taking a dip in the ol’ swimmin’ hole 😅
Thanks for the update on Tx cow. We were all waiting. Surviving 😊this far is a good sign. Maybe ask Doc about more antibiotics and medication that might cause contractions to expel the remainder. Best of luck and sending some serious prayers for this momma.
Thank you for your care and attention to this mama. You have a beautiful herd. God bless you, Dusty and Marissa
I love it when Jackie smiles. ❤
That was Thor, not Jackie.
Oops. Still like the smile❣️
I have been waiting for this video update, and I am glad she is still with us so far. Prayers for you all
Loved seeing the herd going through the pond. Keep my fingers crossed for your Texas cow 🤞
Thanks for the update ! So glad she's still hanging in there ! Marrisa and you did a fantastic job caring for her ! I know that was traumatic . Praying for all of you !
Really tough situation. Brutal all the way around. And what a smart cow coming to you for help. I really hope she makes it and goes on to pass those smart genes to a bunch of future babies.
Dusty & Marissa I am so sorry for your loss. I can imagine that these animals are more than Bison = Its personal. Many people could not have done what you had to do. Because of you she was less stressed than she could have been because she knows you, and she trusts your. Thats impressive. Thank you for all you do for your animals. Your kindness and caring go above and beyond for them. Also thanks for sharing their lives with us. It means so much to me. God be with you two and her.
Hi Dusty. You did all you could and now it's up to Mother nature. Hopefully she will be OK God bless and love yall ❤❤
So so appreciate you sharing all you had to do to try saving this momma. Trusting she can make a full recovery
So glad she is still trying to come back from such a thing. Good work you two!!!
Thank God she’s doing well! I love seeing them go through the ponds.
I have been looking for the update on the TX cow. So happy to see she is doing ok. I have been praying for her to recover completely and will continue to. Dusty, I gotta say I thought you were losing your mind a little bit when I saw you with the kids fishing 🎣 pole. Lots of laughs . I will be watching for further updates. You guys are doing a great job.
I am keeping her in my thoughts and hoping that she can recover fully. You have done what you could to help her. Fire ants suck!
Poor thing! I hope she can fully recover.
Love it when they all run after you. For such skittish creatures they trust you hugely. They know you’re all about what’s best for them.
guys, great respect for youre love for the bison,and how you take care the best as you can, but these things happens sometimes! love and respect from the netherlands, europe.
I’m so sorry for you and your family, what a great family with the most amazing Bison ❤❤❤ 13:49
Hang in there, best of luck to you all. So far miracle bison. Prayers to her!!!
Thanks for sharing- best wishes for full recovery for tx cow ❤️
How beautiful watching them swim through the lake!
That was a beautiful sight!!!
You never ramble. My husband and I enjoy all your videos. Always educational and enjoyable to watch. We absolutely love you and your family. God bless y'all for all you do.
Praying you can save her Dusty! What an awful thing for her to go through & you as well! Sure hope she lives! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm so sorry for what your going through. I work at a vet with small animals. If this were a dog it would be emergency surgery and spay. So different for these huge animals. I can tell you truly love your animals ❤❤
Still hoping TX cow will make it!! The love you have for your heard is wonderful to see!!
