More Hard Decisions

- In this video we run down to the winter pasture and check on the cows. Because of the drought, I am trying to decide if I need to reduce numbers or if I can somehow make it with what we have. After that it’s time to move this years bottle calf back to the herd and see if he can fit in!

He is precious. He would make a grand pet. Don't give up
Your compassion for all of your animals is amazing, it is so genuine! Each and every animal you have and have had has had a wonderful life in your care.
i would suggest to get with a neighborhood kid that is with 4h or FFA and let them take the calf and raise it like a project. BTW i did have lots of experience with calves and dairy. Was herdsman for years with college dairy operation.
Are there any animal rescue sanctuarys in your area? Perhaps they would take him in and give him a forever home. He is just so adorable and I think a lot of us viewers have fallen in love with him. Thank you for taking extra special care of him ❤
Oh my gosh he's so lovely has a gorgeous little face .
You've really looked after him . And callie loves him
When you were talking about the calf laying down your dog came behind you and was carrying a very large stick that was cute
I know I seen that
yep I seen that also that's cute he was ready to play throw the stick Daddy😊😅
I saw that!! Too cute!!
Some stick she had was cute
Farmer Tyler....The bottle calf is so beautiful and gentle. I pray the Vet has something to help him. Human beings get along well if they're blind. I'm making a huge bet he will too ! Please don't make him leave....Sincerely, Nancy 😭
Your such a compassionate farmer.God Bless you and your precious family.
Your critical, compassionate approach to challenges is wonderful.
I love the shot of your doggie in the background dragging that huge branch.
Tyler, so far a miracle has happened! The little calf is still alive. And looking back to the first day of its life the possibility of him just living was questionable.
The calf is growing, it’s breathing is much better, it holds its head up and you can tell that it hears. It can stand and walk, all things it could not originally do.
It’s eating and growing and seems to be enjoying life.
Your time, patience, love and prayers have made all that possible. Please don’t give up on him. I would like to suggest that we start a bottle calf fund so your compassionate, caring viewers can donate for its care. Medication, vet bills etc.
A final note, Callie was adorable in the background pulling that large branch around. She is so cute.
Thanks again for another great video.
Prayers from Indiana for everyone on the farm.
That's a mighty big stick your dog is carrying!
It’s so sweet to watch the adults greeting the little one. ❤️🐄❤️ TFS
I look forward to your next update on the little guy! He's adorable as ever but that only goes so far on the farm. You have gone above and beyond in your care for him and he seems to be a survivor!! I hope the vet is able to give you some direction as to his future!!! Stay safe! Best wishes from Kentucky!
Glad your back, you have some beautiful calves. Look forward to what the vet has to say, Cali sure likes him!!
That is great that you are taking all the time you have to take care of that lil calf ! Loved watching your dog love ❤️ on the calf !
Cali sure is comforting to that calf. I am glad he is doing ok in the corral other than his vision. Look forward to hearing what the vet says.
You are an awesome farmer/rancher, if there wasn't any other proof the simple fact that you haven't given up on that calf yet would be enough for me. You probably already have turned it off, but just in case, don't forget to turn off that heat lamp in the livestock trailer, LOL.
Good morning to Farmer Tyler Ranch and all others too. Great job as always with the cute calves,awe your dog loves and care for the calf. So amazing and thanks for sharing. Everyone have a great and bless day. 😄😄
Keeping fingers crossed for the little calf! Tough decision indeed. 🙁
He sure is healthy! You’ve taken great care of the him( calf..)😊
Gosh I hope the vet had something good to say. I'm rooting for this calf.... Please don't make us wait too long FT!!!
Hope little calf can make it through!!
Your great to hang in there for this little guy.
Great to see you back with more videos. I sure hope this little calf makes it. It would be sad to think he’ll be blind forever. I’ll pray for him.
Cliffhanger! I enjoyed the camera angles today, especially the little guy in the trailer.
Look at dog in the back with the 10ft branch….. how awesome 😉😭
You got to love Tyler. He is the best farmer we can wish for.
So elated to see that you stuck with him . He is adorable !!! Bless your heart for giving him a chance. He's an old soul and very gentle. It was also beautiful to see him communicating with another calf and how welcoming they were. Y ou've come this far with him and the healing process .This is what hope is. There's a space in his heart for love , like other calves but his way , and I can tell he is loving life even through some adversity. Sending Blessings 💕🐄🙋♀️
Ohh, a cliff hanger. He’s such a sweet calf, I hope he gains some sight.
👁 👁.
Hope you had a great time with family and friends while you were away.
Looking forward to hear what happened at the vet. It’s a good idea to go to the vet.
Has your family harvested the walnuts yet? Yesterday I came across the video by Mrs. FTR from a couple years ago at walnut harvest. I enjoyed it.
I’ve been anxiously waiting for an update on the the little guy🥰 Hope everything turns out for the best.
It's nice to see you take so much time with the calf
Hey Tyler, we sure missed you last week! if the price for beef is high go for it.
Will be an interesting diagnosis. Look forward to hearing the details. Will be a major decision, for you, depending upon that diagnosis. Hope you and your family are having a great time on your family vacation.
You're doing a great job with the little calf and I admire how much of a chance you have been giving him. I wish I lived near you so that I would have been able to help you. We all respect whatever decision you make, one way or the other
Thank you Amanda
Saddest damn thing ever. You take such good care of your livestock. Sometimes being a farmer is the toughest job out there.
Glad the calf is doing well. We just got done dealing with a first time heifer having swollen teats making nursing for the calf difficult. Congrats on ranching full time man, definitely wish I could be doing it all the time.
When your pup drags the tree in at 11:50 was funny.
You’ve devoted more time and effort to that calf than many stockmen would, and I applaud you for that. You’re going to have some tough decisions, and no matter what way it goes, I know you’ve done your best. It will be interesting to hear what happens with the vet visit.
Thank you I appreciate that!
I had a calf with bad vision that improved over several months. Feed him out and put him in the freezer. Keep posted about calf progress.
The baby calf is still living he's alive ? wow he's a strong little guy I'm hoping for the best,😁👍🏼💕 @ 4:04 that baby calf is adorable🤗
poor baby calf, I can't wait to see what the vet says, I know it could go either way but at least your trying. Thank you for still holding on and giving the calf hope Mr.Tyler I appreciate it.
👍 It has never been so, that somehow it was not. What will be, it will be. God Bless.
Thank you for sharing your tries with the blind calf, what else can be done Tyler? I'll wait to hear what the Vet says
Saw you on hidden heights and keeping it Dutch videos at Redmond expo!! Got really excited because you 3 are some of my FAVORITE channels to follow❤️❤️
Thanks Deb it was a fun trip. My video will be up soon!
Hang in there, Tyler !!
Congratulations. I love watching.
Your husbandry skills are amazing
Incredible how much work you've put into this calf. My hat's off to you. I hope y'all had a great time on your vacation
I can't believe a 31 acre ranch, that your grandma owns, you can make a good living on? I hope you can. You have a talent with your welding, I think you should do design work. I like the effort. Your parents have a working orchard so your future is bright.
That Calf’s eyelashes r so cute!
There is a RUclips channel called Rae's Ranch and Rescue. She just bought an emu baby that's blind in one eye. Maybe she would be interested in taking the calf? She's with Adler Farms family
Hope you have a great time off with your family.
You have a lot of cows and calefs you have good videos
Calli has made friends with your bottle calf. She also was wanting you to throw that limb for her.
New calf in pasture is so cute.
Are you missing the drive to work?
Hope you get much needed rain.
Have a great afternoon and evening.
Introduce the young calf to Buddy. Maybe Buddy will help him learn a thing or two.
You're giving him the best possible chance, Tyler. It's all you can do. Hoping for the best!
He’s still alive! He’s a Blessing from God! Angels have been really watching over this little Guy! Standing on his own! Mama! Calling! Callie love the Calve! Someone is going to adopt this little guy! I’m thinking 🤔 that this guy may have a little sight! His Hearing is taking more responsibility for the little calve! Thank-you for all your love and care!
Good update. Hope the Vet has some magic in there medicine bag.
Fingers crossed for the calf Tyler
What a nice greeting party for the little blind calf. I guess Callie was dragging that huge stick around thinking it was supposed to be the drum roll stick😆. Last Monday we got 30 rain drops and again today it looks like we might get 40 drops…doesn’t to much to make the grass grow. You are so lucky to have a pump to irrigate. The ACID (Anderson, Cottonwood Irrigation District) has sent out letters stating that there will be NO water available this year, first time this has ever happened. Good luck with the vet appointment, will be waiting for the results. Thanks for a great video with terrific camera angels.
Nice to see you care so much about your animals
I have had blind calves before. They will do just find if kept in the same place. Once they learn where everything is. They were around 1300# when we butchered them.
Can we keep him Dad? Can we?! PLEASE ???!!! Listen, we KNOW the ins n’ out of ranching just from watching your videos if not from our own experiences… so, we get all sentimental and fall in love with these guys… even the ones that are bigger and follow you around… I myself, never realised how much personality cows do have… sorry, we fall in love with them…OH! I was thinking, maybe as a distraction ? When you go to check a baby with a protective mom? Maybe a bucket with a bit of something tasty in it like sweet mix? Or some other kind of grain? May be a trade off for enough time to take care of or check the calf… jus’ sayin’… respectfully, Sue☮️♥️⭐️🙋♀️‼️

Pup in the background got to me. Makes me miss my bloodhound so much. She was a goofball that found all the weird stuff to play with and never ran off regardless of her instincts. Fuck cancer. She was 6 and got riddled with it. Hardest thing I've had to do was put her down.
Said that story before in these comments. You've got a tough job working with animals
Hey Tyler I used to haul cattle years ago and I hold the blind steer there that was penned with another steer or half of what it was and that thing followed that heifer around always had his chin on her rump and when I got down to Augusta she got off the trailer before him and I had to go down into the trailer and bring him out With my hand on his chin under his chunder his chin so with saying that I wouldn't give up hope that was a nice looking steer that was blind
Well that was quite a cliffhanger! I can’t imagine how difficult these decisions must be for you.
it was in the Redmond mine
Hoping for the best Tyler 🤞🙏
YOU ARE ONE PATIENT MAN. YOUR KIDS ARE LUCKY TO HAVE A DAD LIKE YOU, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY BECOME TEENAGERS. YOU ARE A MAN OF SECOND CHANCES. KUDOS TO YOU! SO THANKFUL FOR YOUR PATIENCE INDEED. WHATEVER DECISIONS YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE. A MAN OF INTEGRITY!
Hey Tyler, big fan here! I was wondering if you could do a video of how you have your rotational grazing setup. I know you did a video before just wondering if you still do it.
Thanks 😊
Hello think I would do things a little different with that calf but my time and your time are different so it goes on to your schedule. Have a great day and hopefully you're successful with him
Hi I like your videos
Good to see your first post after going full time ! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
I be taking 50 old cows didnt get breed on Thursday morning they had calves last year I be taking them to the sale barn Wednesday morning 50 calves that’s why I keep 500 heifers back and they have bulls on them right now
don't give up on the little guy
💪💪💪❤️😄 hope he makes it !
Doing a great job appreciate the honesty hopefully it will work out
Thanks Tyler 6-9-2022👍🏽👍🏽
I hope you guys get rain soon you got some pretty calves and the drought looks hard on you guys I hope you guys can still bale hay but the darn drought is killing grass and different stuff thanks for sharing the video
Love
This episode has me in more suspense than the movie Jaws did in 1976.
Had several blind cows threw the years they pretty much settle in and follow the herd pastor are all turning green can't wait even tho will be calving in in about 3 weeks got 2 hare sheep left to go got ram in with my other ladies we have had 15 Inch of rain past 3 weeks not been fun
The calf is a concern and you are doing what you can. Have you had a conversation with your vet? Have you looked into a couple of sanctuary places if it looks like life on the farm is not in his future? I know you are doing your best and it is very hard making the decisions you have to make.
I remember when I was young, my grandfather decided to butcher heffer because she hadn’t called recently. Unfortunately when he was dressing her out her discovered that she was in fact pregnant so she died for nothing.
give him milk for 3 months and let him graze afterwards in the herd. i always do it with bottle calves like that. they will never get as good as the other calves, but better than nothing
thx
Hey there Tyler, I hope you're all well and good!
The calf certainly looks better, but he doesn't really act any better, so whatever you decide, I'm confident it will be in his best interest.
Apparently you don't pregnancy check your cows, which is unquestionably money well spent, and should become a part of your annual routine. Had you done this last fall, you wouldn't have 8-9 months worth of feed invested in an open cow (s) which is a losing proposition.
I hope y'all have a good one, and I'm anxious to see what the Vet says, but I'm afraid it's not going to be what you want to hear. 🐂 👍 🇺🇸
Poor thing. I hope and pray he gets better.
Sounds silly but I would like to share my experience. I raised meat goats for 7 years and had kids several time gone through pink eyes and developed while spot in the eye. Tried vet recommended advices and seemed didn’t work well as expected. Then I started with 5 drops of organic apple cider vinegar mixed in a coffee cup of clean water and applied 8 to 10 drops once a day. I noticed the white spot gone completely in five days and vision was back. I am not a vet, sorry just couldn’t wait to share my success. As I said , it worked well for goats. No idea on calves.
Hey Tyler...talk to your vet about treating that little guy for meningitis...when cattle get it the eyesight is generally the first thing to be affected
Just hope and pray the baby gets well and be a healthy animal.
Enjoy your family vacation. Looking forward to more content.
First, I know I am late to this party. Second, you gave this baby the best chance he could have had. Lastly, he is freaking cute!
I do have a question, how much does he weigh in this video?
Please, don't give up on him, not just yet.
A cliff hanger for sure!
Can you ask a vet about the eye problem to see what they may think it is? Loved your dog and the humongous stick lol
and he is such a beautiful little calf.
I have a blind cow and she doing really good she got a new baby girl calve on the side I have her and her baby in a pan by herself
Nice to see you back
