    Almost went into withdrawals waiting for another video. Watching your old videos is just not the same.
    Watching you and your Dad work together makes me miss my Dad and working together on our row crop farm in CA.
    Thanks for taking time to send us your day.

    This is one of your best vids yet. Very comprehensive and really shows many aspects of farming. Everything from tractor work to water trough adjustments to hoof trimming to logistics. If you ever need a video to show how multitasking is essential, this is it!

    Great video as usual Eric. As I have been about farms my whole life I really appreciate the workload that you and your dad have and the effort that you both put into your very well run farm. I just wish that more non farmers in particular younger school kids were encouraged by the schools to watch content like yours and see what goes into farming and where their food actually comes from rather than thinking its just the superstores! Stay safe and thanks from Scotland.

    Great to see you and your family back in action Eric. No - doubt there is allot of hard work involved in all you do and we can see you really care for your cows (aka 'girls'). Hopefully your new arrangement will help with the timing of the feedings and all. You really need to take advantage of every 'little thing' you can when you work this much and hard. Nice seeing your cousin setting you up too while you were unloading his trailer.🐄

  • @lizzardnurphy
    @lizzardnurphy 2 года назад +34

    So many people have no idea how hard farmers work. Look at how much was done before the sun came up. I remember my Dad working a full time job, early mornings before the job, afternoons, evenings & weekends working the farm. Farmers are hard working people! Love your vids.

    • @roberthakeman9822
      @roberthakeman9822 2 года назад +2

      Farmers are hard working people in this country but aren't paid enough for all the chances that they have to take like presale there crops, the amount of hours that they put in daily. Raising there own food for the family. Like Pork, Beef, Chicken and eggs and milking there own cows for milk and cheese. They can't control the weather to have a picture perfect crop. They spend lots of money for machinery to get there crops in on time. And they have to keep there equipment in great shape for harvesting there crops and to get them in on time.

Thank you for sharing your life.

    Farming is some mighty hard consistent work. You gotta be all trades.💪 Been watching for years. Love the dairy farm! I love milk too! Keeps them bones strong! Just ended our December of over 220" of snowfall. Record breaking month since before 1970! Skiing is prime in the Sierra Nevada mountains! By Lake Tahoe area! Cheers. Happy new year! And keep up the great work!

    18:30 the soft "WooHoo" at the perfect bale roll made me laugh . I guess it's the low ceiling and maybe smaller bales, but Eric looks like a giant at 17:49. I know he's tall, but... Thanks for pointing out the Montbéliarde cross calves. They are looking good! It will be interesting to know what their milk production is when they grow up.

    Hello Eric. As a city boy I find it fascinating to watch your channel and watch what happens on a working dairy farm. Thank you so much for the hard work you and your family does to feed us. I was wondering how long it takes on average for a cow to learn their daily routine?

  • @Dj-zz
    @Dj-zz 2 года назад

    Enjoyed the video Eric. I like how you pay attention around the farm & in the barns. You noticed the brush didn’t sound right. Maybe a bushing or bearing going. Early detection often prevents a major issue & saves money. Builds your retirement fund. ha, ha. Take care.

    23:15 "Saved $14, could invest that in mutual funds and retire some day...." Always thinking, you are one special farmer Eric.
    I had not heard you were adding teh Montbellarde breed to your herd - theyre milk is supposed to be great for cheese making. Hopefully you can add that to your operation, would make a great addition to your lineup of videos.

    9:20 I always run the skidsteers in boots like that, it really is hard. I wish I could wear regular leather boots, but I'm always walking around in ankle deep manure. I work on a pretty big dairy farm in Wisconsin, we milk 2500 cows on a 60 stall rotary.

    It's the little things like that which keep me coming back. And I've said it before and I'll say it again, so much work just so I can enjoy a some milk with my cookies.
    Thank you for all the hard work!
