  • We work our first set of cows and calves for the year. I show you our process of how we sort cows from calves and then work the calves. The wide alley way on this setup makes for some tough work pushing the calves up to the chute. That made for some close calls!
    Any questions or comments, let me know!

    I used a portable fence to move calves down to the chute. I welded together two horizontal pipes to four vertical pipes and used the contraption to push the calf into the shute. Worked great and you dont get kicked.. Just thought I would pass that on to you.

    I will never forget one of my first time working cow and calf. I was running them up the shoot for a shot and a blue die dewormer, that is applied in the back just above the hips. So we're getting down to the end with no problems,but of course there had to be on Bitc# in the group. I have a buzzer but I don't like using them if I don't have to. But this was a acception so I give her a attention getter. Well when I did that she lunged forward but then at the same time had come back. Okay so when her hips come back I had picked up the buzzer in my finger was still on the trigger and it happened to tap just right on her hips and throw a spark and it lit the blue dewormer on fire in that count instantly started burning with flames. I was in such shock I've never seen anything like it my boss was jumping around with a shirt off yelling something and I didn't know so I take off running because where are you going I said get the grill . But really I was in such shock I think I was just walking away because didn't want to watch a cow burn alive. She's okay though calf's name is sparky and mama's name is fire. #farmstrugle.

    Maybe a good manageable piece of plywood would've been easier to block the calfs from turning around in the chute, growing up on a ranch that was my job for the entire summer months of branding. Plus, there was no need of cattle-prods, especially when the alley chute was shorter down to the calf-squeezer station. Thanks for sharing I enjoy watching different cattle operations amongst the ranches in the US and aboard.

    • @TheFarmGuy
      @TheFarmGuy  3 года назад

      Yes there’s no doubt that it could be improved. An adjustable alley like we have back at home would be idea. Thanks for watching I appreciate it.

    Do all the genealogist in your area a favor and please wash headstones and do shadings of the surface of the headstones for history sake or let some genealogists know and I bet they would do it. I bet if you sweep all the leaves away you’ll find a lot of people buried there. Sometimes headstones are the only record some people have of there family with correct dates and where some of their family died and where they were buried. And your right it will be lost to the ages if someone doesn’t do it. If i didn’t live cross the country I would come help to do it. Thanks for listening. Love your videos.
