....SORRY FOLKS .. RUclips did me dirty - for some reason sound wasn't working for some of you and for others the quality is from the 1990's .... hopefully it's sorted itself by the time you see this!
Yes sorted.. thank you
360p lol
360p gang? 360p gang.
That is some camcorder level of pixels RUclips is giving you!
Yes it's all sorted out! Much love to all of you from Greece!
Just in case no one else has told you; OG stands for original gangster. People just use it for original now. Either way thanks for the extra long vid, love putting these on when im grappling with a software bug in my code. The way you root out those sole ulcers and white line defects apparently inspires me to find memory leaks and wrong typed variables so cheers for that!
Some one should also tell him the idiom is “the proof is in the pudding”
@@SandrA-hr5zk pretty sure the reason that is a saying is that pudding used to have yeast included, just like bread. When you set the bread aside to rise it is called proofing, so, the proof, is in the pudding.
@@adaelion3772 I always thought it was because pudding used to be made with alcohol 😅
Your statement is absolutely true, but I want to add a little bit of lesser known info. „OG“ was first used in the 90s and meant „Original Gangster“ (as you said), but the 90s HipHop scene took the acronym from the weed growing scene in California where it was used before and stood for „Ocean Grown“, meaning weed which was grown outside, near the ocean and in rich, salty air.
Learn something new everyday. Given general context, if assumed it meant "Old Guard".
Hi I lost my wife before Christmas and I must say thank you for all you do your videos have got me through my hard time. Your the best on RUclips
I'm so _very_ sorry to read about your awful loss. I can't imagine your pain (I honestly hope I'm the first of us to go because I couldn't manage without my old feller. He'll cope better than me. That is a matter of fact, especially as we're both disabled). I do hope you're starting to mend and it's great to see that there's something which has helped.
When you're ready, may I suggest you do something like learn something you always wanted to do? Give yourself something positive to focus on. It really doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's your choice.
Don't let anyone tell you how to, or how long to grieve. That's a very personal thing. Other people's experiences are theirs, not yours. I hope you manage to come through this time and are able to laugh again. Much love to you and your family x
So sorry to hear that Stefan -hope you're managing to still extract some enjoyment from life because Im certain she'd have wanted you to. Hope you're well.
@@TheHoofGP thank you don't stop doing RUclips videos
@@y_fam_goeglyd thank you I miss her so much every day is the same to me I look at her chair I just cry
I'm so sorry for the loss of your wife.
Take care of yourself while you grieve, please.
You're right about watching Graeme's videos. That helped me too.
If you want or need someone, just reach out to the herd here. We do try to respond as soon as we can.
Find someone that reacts like Graeme when Ashley pops in with a surprise lunch and you will truly be blessed. That man showed true joy in that moment even though he was half covered in cow excrement. Thank you Graeme for sharing this with us.
The look of love on a man covered in poo
Why do u think most of us watch. He's handsome, he's interesting and that accent. He's wholesome and honest and that laugh...I can listen all day...
This is absolutely fascinating. I have absolutely nothing to do with livestock or hoof care and somehow this ended up in my recommendations. I'm a freelance animator and the amount of time I have spent watching this channel over the past two or three days is kind of crazy.
me too! so interesting and so is this great guy....
Same! 😂
I am grateful for the music that he shares with those of us from other countries. Beautiful lyrics!
And who doesn’t love the care he gives and relief he provides for these sweet amazing animals? 💙💙💙💙💙
If you’re from the USA, please vote blue.
Me too 😅
These animals need to be in a dryer area and if they don't hardly have a hoof wouldn't it always be getting breached , I'm confused 😐 why , keep shaving them down to nothing!
Your hair has taken on a life of it's own. Love your videos
I think he's trying to out do professor simon.
Still think Cammy (of The Sheep Game fame) needs to ambush jim for a good shearing.... 🤣
Yes, the Christopher Lloyd look (from "Taxi") - Love it!
😂😂😂😂it’s true😂😂😂😂
Looks like Eraserhead!
Bio cleanliness is sooo important between farms. Many moons ago when I had a horse stabled, some people went "barn hopping". They went to the 3 local stables. We know they to all 3 as all 3 barns were hit with strangles at the same time. Many horses, including my own and the 3 month old foal got strangles.
I have so appreciated seeing the lengths you go to to keep your equipment clean. I've seen other trimmers visit other dairy farms, and I just cant watch. Their equipment is just caked. I'm not a neetnik, not by any means but germs that effects others livelihood and property must not be spread. (Sorry for the book!)
Graham, if someone told me that I would be interested in watching someone trimming cow hooves. & continue to watch I’d have told them no way. You make the video/shows or whatever extremely interesting. Thank you so much. I’m a big believer in 1)it’s good to learn something new all the time. 2) your never to old to learn something new 3) there’s a statement I learnt something new today & it’s only Monday. Stay safe & continue to help those cows & bulls. What is your job title? (Hoof trimmer) or what? & do you also do other animals like horses or all animals that have hooves? Did you go to school to learn how to do this? Or was it a family business? Or was it learn on the job & build your business by word of mouth from customers. Whatever or however you started out to me your very good at your job. Again Thank You!!! ❤😂😮😂❤
I’m so sorry your horses got the strangles…no light matter and extremely affects the horses and as you know, it is expensive and stressful to treat.
Graeme is a very responsible , efficient and carrying professional; he’s very affectionate as well to his charges and does his work with always the comfort of the cattle..
That horse should have been isolated if it was known but as it is nasty and can be a sneaky disease; it’s wise to at least not allow your horses direct contact with other horses from a different herd/ stable, nor allow them to share their water and feed. It can even be passed onto dogs, cattle, people .I do Hope that your horses recovered without serious complications. I have heard that infection creates some immunity, but why risk it?
GREAME!! OG is American slang for "Orignal Gangster". From some song. The internet just kinda took the word OG and turned in into meaning simply "original". Anyhoo hi from Washington, USA. I grew up on a small dairy calf ranch and my love for cows runs deep. My favorite moments are when you talk about each hurt cow with compassion and love. It really shines through the camera how genuine of a person you must be 🐮
I was checking first to see if someone posted this and you did. now I don't have to. 🤣
Ice-T's 1991 album OG: Original Gangster put the term in wide use but the LA Cripts gang were using it in the 70's to describe founding members.
I commented what it meant then seen yours and deleted mine
Original Gangster, or also commonly referred to "Old Guard"
Yesssir
I never thought that a guy from Scotland and numerous herds of cows would get this Canadian girl through a case of the flu! Thanks! PS...the home addition looks great!
Right? That is so funny. I'm sick with a stomach bug right now and I just found him last night. I've been up for half the night mostly watching his videos.n several of them I've watched most of the time.
The power of Scottish lads.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure the fact that you take the prevention just as if not more seriously as the times you have to fix problems shows just how dedicated to your work you are
You spend most of the video talking… before you even show a cow…
Whew that was a bit of a long video. Hard for someone like me with short attention span to watch the whole thing, plus me being legally blind couldn’t see everything. But I made it.
I know it is a reality, but I am a bit sad to hear Gracie has been sold. But I take some solace in knowing you made her more comfortable and helped her heal.
I thought the same thing. I’d love an update on Gracie, even if it’s not good news.
@@AzGoodAzEver I'd guess she was sold for dog food.... 😔
@@AzGoodAzEver Steak
@@DS9TREK However not knowing allows us to believe that she’s in a retirement pasture at a petting zoo.
She is alive and being a nursery cow Mom... ❤
I agree HGP, everyone should get a Craig, as a disabled woman living on her own, I know some days I could surely do with a Craig and I don't mind the no returns policy! Great and happy work, love happy cows, love the channel.
This made me giggle💗
@@SecularPaganMum What does it mean?😅🤭
You know, it IS nice to know someone is at home worrying about you and wanting to make you feel better. That was a nice surprise from Mrs GP. 🐄❤️
So very good to hear that Gracie totally healed. She was the first cow I really felt connected to and worried about her. I hope she is still having a good life somewhere else! She was a lovely girl.
Very unlikely she's been retired. Once they are too old to produce more calves economically, they go to slaughter.
What videos was she in? I recognize the name and number but have no idea what hoof story connects to the cow ;;-;;
I'm not a farmer or even remotely associated with farm activities, but I do thank the algorithm for exposing me to your videos. It is refreshing to see and learn about things I don't know about.
I was wondering, could you perhaps explain the anatomy of a cow hoof? It almost looks like the parts you trim would be the equivalent of our finger nails, only much thicker. How did you come across this as a job / what got you interested in this as a profession? How did you learn how to do this? And my final question is... How did people in the past do this without the tools you use today?
Look up cow hoof anatomy videos on RUclips, you'll find his one.
@@alistairclement4239 Will do
The excitement in his voice when his wife shows up is everything ❤
Graeme, OG means Original Gangster - it’s slang for someone who’s incredibly exceptional, authentic, or “old-school.” I’m sorry the Wopa didn’t work out - if I remember correctly, the original plan was to have two different hoof trimming capabilities. Craig and Kevin would do routine trims and you would be a stand-alone “special case” trimmer with a crush you could move about by yourself (the Wopa). I thought is sounded like a really good strategy for expanding your operation.
@Kimisuacronyms can have many different meanings - what does og mean to you?
Yeah. I thought the small self propelled crush was for greame going solo while his other team was knocking out mainstream farms...
Graeme you’ve got a great business and it’s clear that you love your work and are enthusiastic about caring for these cows. I’m sure that they feel much better and although the process may be stressful to the cows; it’s a delight to see how happy and frisky some cows are after you’ve relieved their discomfort..
PS…Your wife is a peach for bringing you and your fellows lunch…❤
Thank you for your videos. I know this is a year old, but I’m just watching these for the first time. I am not around cows and actually favor horses, but I find this fascinating and literally love just watching all this.
I find myself watching you guys most evenings. I never knew that cows needed their hooves trimmed and that I would find it so fascinating. I enjoy all the teaching you do during your trims explaining why you do something.
Before twine, they used wire. Lumber camp had horses to pull logs out so there was lots of hay brought in. As the camp got older, more and more stuff was repaired with the wire. An old camp that was past its prime had gone haywire.
😆
🤣
Baling wire is still important for repairs.
I have seen bailing wire used for filler rod in oxyacetylene welding of cracks in Automotive body panels on older vehicles that had heavier steel used in the body panels.
Linguistic history! 💗💗💗
2 reasons I can not stand any other hoof trimming channels:
1. The Dutch method and your explanations. Logical and complete, thank you.
2. The Scots accent, it speaks to my heart and my ancestry. Thanks for the translations.
Graeme and Craig are the only cow hoof trimmers that I watch. One chap said about a hoof he was working on, that he'd be leaving a crack until the next time he would be by. I know that there are different ways to do things, but leaving a crack for two weeks minimum doesn't sound good. It looked like a white line fracture. So, it's hats off to Graeme and Craig. 🥰🐃🐄🐂💖
Ashley bringing you bacon butties at work has brought back happy memories of when I was a newlywed taking bacon butties to my hubby while he was still in the Army, when they let him work on camp that was...
Thank you so much.
Normally it's just memories from visiting my family in County Donegal. The beautiful scenery, the farms, the cows...
That is an awesome memory. I'm a carpenter and my beautiful missus is a chef and she brings me awesome lunches at my sites. It's always a high point in my day 😃
Kate can you tell me what are bacon butties?? I loved your story btw.
😲 bacon inside a soft floury burger bun best with HP sauce (uk) or tomato ketchup 🫶
@@LS-eo5hg our hardware chain Bunnings does a tradesmans breakfast on Friday mornings . A nice bun , bacon egg, cheese and onion. It's pretty nice when you're there picking up material and you can get a bacon and egg roll and decent coffee
Yum
Its men like this that help farmers feed the world. Probably grossly underpaid but much appriciated for their compassion for these animals who help feed nations.
I wonder how many cows in India have feet problems.
Have you seen his house and equipment? Obviously he is well paid and is worth every bit he's paid. His beautiful car collection shows he's not hurting.
I enjoy preventative maintenance just as much as I enjoy watching you help a lame cow or bull! You, Craigie and Kev keep up the great work y'all do!! Hi from Pennsylvania, 🇺🇸
Thanks for the Gracie update. I do hope her new owners know how special she is.
I would assume she's gone for meat.
@@dshe8637 That's my thought too... ☹️
I’m going to pretend she’s at a lovely farm with lots of friends and delicious soft grass….
No I think she went to a sanctuary I don’t think milk cow is not good for meat
The owner said she was a nursery mom cow
Aw, it's so cute to see how excited you were to see Mrs. HGP! Never stop appreciating each other. You will have a long, happy and blessed life together!
I worked 35 years in medical interventional diagnostics. Binge watching to catch up was reminding me of my career. You are a excellent clinician. I get the magical healing process. Exposing
to heal from inside out. Cheers mate.
What about all the 💩 they walk through up to they udders? That has to help immensely, never seen such filthy bovine 😮
I am heartened by the evidence that you are doing well financially; somehow, knowing that experience and wisdom have their rewards is a comfort to me.
Anyone else wonder how this guy has so much energy in the morning and enthusiasm throughout the day? Wish I could be as energetic as him. Fun to watch.
I think he is happy. He has a great loving family, great house, the job that he loves. There is nothing draining his energy. So he gets up with a beautiful wife every morning, talks to his kids, has a cup of coffee and he knows that in the evening he will cone back to his warm loving house.
Its impossible to be happy and energetic when you get up alone in a cold house, drive for 1.5 hrs in a heavy traffic just to spend 9 hrs doing work you dont like just to pay for bills, knowing that another 1.5 hr drive is waiting for you. Sitting sad watching RUclips every evening and going to bed just to get another draining energy night as you have insomnia. And tomorrow it will be same... No love, no energy, no life...
@@normaroxy5705 *insert smoking Matthew McConaughey meme here*
Did you see his car collection?
No. I am not interested in his personal life. But I like seeing his happy face and his energy is just amazing. Some people were born with a golden spoon in their mouth.. 👍
While i cant say i don't enjoy the "gory" ones, they are facinating and satisfying to see resolved, the long standard trimming ones are sooo soothing to watch. Something so calming about them. Love to see them.
You should have a stone jar at the first of the year and put those stones you find in it - see how long it takes to fill up.
I write this on a year old video, so I doubt that you will read this. You have a beautiful wife. As you start your video in your home, I imagine I’ve been invited in to your home. It’s a privilege to see your wife natural and your heathy children do what all children do in the mornings. Thank you for sharing this with me or us. Treasure them each day and keep those memories close. ❤
I love your channel and I love the cows. When you tell us that farmers are sending the cows back to you even though they’re not lame so that you can recheck them, that’s really good to know. It made me very happy for those cows. I’m glad they have you looking after them and even learning their names.❤
I love this channel so much. I love the educational, fascinating (almost Dr. Pimple Popper esque satisfaction/interest). And the beautiful scenery of Scotland makes the videos all the more special. Seems like such a genuinely sincere and good person and he wakes up everyday with the best attitude. I am so happy that the channel has grown like it has and his family are getting to receive the rewards of his hard work, which I know makes him very happy.
Graeme, your touch with the grinder is as gentle and precise as an artists brush on canvas. I think you were born to be a wonderful hoof trimmer, educator and comic with a heart of gold. Thanks from this older lady from Washington State in USA.
I will never be around a dairy farm, and I have no need for the information you provide. But that doesn't stop me from thoroughly enjoying all of your videos. They give me an appreciation of the hard work, dedication & care that goes into getting the dairy products that most people don't think twice about. I wish so many more people had your work ethic and commitment to their chosen profession.
Thank you so much for the update on Gracie! I bought the book for my grandkids, so we're pretty invested in her story.
Where,?
Hello 👋 Is there a book on Gracie ?????? I would like to buy it for my grandchildren.
I bought the book to give to my local library( springfield, missouri)
@@mzglo7588 Hi there in Springfield Missouri, this is Tina in England 🇬🇧, I’m really confused about the book on Gracie…is it Gracie from Graeme the hoof GP…..??
@@mzglo7588 hi! I went to college in Springfield in the 70s.
i really appreciate how clean you keep your crush. i have see other hoof trimmers that dont wash them. its just applaud you for being kind and compassionate.
Love that someone that actually provides something has succeeded. Love the videos
Your wife is amazing! So sweet of her to come see you. Craig belongs to his wife.. better ask permission to send him about.
I would love to see a final reveal of your home when it is done. Glad the Ranger is back up and running! I am a Ford lover from way back! Great video! Glad you could help that sweet cow with the giant boulder in her foot.. goodness it almost swallowed your finger..
Having been deployed by the army during the foot and mouth crisis I've seen first hand how important cleaning and disinfecting equipment is,and how quickly disease can be spread from one farm to the next
That is so true. We raise show rabbits and there is a deadly virus spreading (slowly) throughout the USA. Proper biosecurity is so important to prevent spread.
One of my trips to UK was during the hoof and mouth outbreak. It was pretty bad in Rep of Ireland. I've never washed shoes, cars, tires, etc as much as I did during that trip.
Getting through customs in London was hell.
My husband was also working through the Foot and Mouth crisis when we were stationed just outside of Newcastle at Herron on the Wall where one of the first cases was found.
@@michellegreggan4548 I was 39 RA in Newcastle is that the same regiment as your husband?
@@shaggy4344 …..omg, yes it was! We lived on camp. My husband was REME so was attached to 39. We were living there from 1999 to 2002, but I think he was there from 1997 before we got married.
My husband is Dave Greggan, don’t know if that name means anything to you? He did 24 years and we now live in Kirkcudbright, South West Scotland, so not too far from the infamous Hoof GP……I always look out for him when driving around locally 🥰
Mrs HGP is a beautiful soul! You are lucky to have found each other and have built a wonderful family. Craig is a sweetheart!
3rd video just after midnight cant sleep and you making me want a cup of coffee.
Can't praise the adjunct voice-overs enough!
So informative.
Please make playlists with videos of the recovery process of the same cow/bull. It's always nice to see how serious wounds heal over time due to your trimming!
I’m REALLY enjoying the longer videos! Although I know how much work is involved in making them, I do truly appreciate them all the same. Thank you!
When your equipment is clean it looks better to the people paying for your services, its healthier for the cows because you're not transferring anything from one farm to another, and its better for the people using the equipment, not just because it IS clean but also because you feel better because it's clean and ready.
Hello from USA Graeme. I grew up on a small dairy farm in central Kentucky. Not familiar with what your area of expertise. But truly enjoy watching the process. As a retired registered nurse love seeing the healing and caring process.
Feels nice when someone visits randomly because they care about you ❤️🙏 I hope my husbands feels the same way when we take his lunch together 😅❤️ great video those cows are so blessed!
I really like the Scottish accent in general, but there's something special about how the Scots pronounce "stone."
Edit: Aww. Mrs. HGP delivering sandwiches reminds me of when Dad'd forget his lunch at home and Mom'd have me ride my bike over to his work to deliver it to him. I'd often hang out for a while just chatting or running little errands or just being with my dad. The place he worked at had a *lot* of problems and often didn't treat Dad well at all, but I'm grateful they let this weird kid lurk around the office.
When i see the cow with all 4 feet in the air i can't help but just imagine flying super cows...
"Assume a spherical cow..."
Yea that was my first thought then I add to it "cows with guns," if you haven't seen it do an Internet Search for it. It is so worth it.
@salt7625 haha, I thought of the childhood little diddy, "Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon..." !
Greame you are one special guy. Giving updates and real life answers to thing we did not know we wanted to know. Love your longer videos cause I learn more. Thank you to both of you oh and Mrs HGP.
I watch your videos every night and have been doing so on and off for a couple of years. This is the first night that I’ve laid in bed thinking that you’re giving me Smoky the Bear vibes. Like the way you educate the farmers reminds me of “only you can prevent forest fires.”
I love watching your videos whilst relaxing, they are shot, edited, and produced to a great standard, plus your voice is calm and you do a perfect narrative. Thank you.
Hey Graeme. Your camera seems to go in and out of focus lately. I don’t know if you noticed it. I just wanted to let you know about it. Keep up the good work with the cows.😊
I loved this video!! It's cool to see the "exciting" stuff, but I like just watching the touch up pedicures too! And I love the interaction between you and Craigie Boy! It's so obvious how much fun you have, how hard you work and how much you care about each other. Keep up the good work. Watching your videos has been my sanity the past few months, so thank you!!
It’s the exciting stuff that originally brought me to the channel. RUclips recommended due to my interest in Pimple Popper. But it’s videos like this that I look forward to now. I love the way he explains things even though I don’t even know anyone who owns cows! I find the whole thing of it so calming and relaxing. Especially the drone footage!
😢😢😊😅
Under U.S. Farm Regulation you would have to wash the crush and equipment, after each Farm before you left, so as to limit the chance of bringing any bugs or other contaminates to the other farms. Which you mention at the end of the video.
Young Graeme does wash in between, per British/Scottish Farm Regs. :-) But since he doesn't serve food, his Afro is going wild. BTW Graeme, There is a nice Barber shop on Cross St. :-) Old Man Bill from West Texas
@@SirWilhelm46 I LOVE his wild curls!! I'll bet his wife does also...my hubs has the same type of hair. LOL Sending Graeme BIG hugs from Texas! 🤠 Love these videos....so soothing...and great humor.
@@SirWilhelm46 I'd love to see him with his hair braided in cornrows. Bet it would look impressive. He has plenty of hair to do it up right.
I love Graeme’s energy, He’s like a whirlwind…..I bet there are very few dull moments around him. Craigy boy and he make a great team. Please can we know more about Mrs Hoof GP…..aka the lovely Ashley. With two small boys to look after, Ashley won’t have much free time, but I would like to know some of her favorite things to do, or maybe she prefers to stay in the background, but she shouldn’t because she’s lovely.
@@christinalloyd-francis3237 shes something, I dunno if thats the word I'd use
I love how even thought your channel has grown and you are really well off, you have stuck to your roots to help these amazing creatures out
He was well off b4 RUclips since the day he started uploading he’s gotten atleast 500k views a month atleast he’s just only gotten better and put more effort and time into it he doesn’t need yt money he clearly has a whole business
Graeme...Just stumbled upon your channel and it has become one of my favorites. Love your sense of humor and your expertise and dedication to the health of the cows you care for. Look forward to catching up with the rest of your videos. Btw...I hope you washed your hands before you ate that sandwich.
Graeme, your camera is glare-y, like a fogged lens. Or dirty/greasy. Also, you may want to have a discussion with it about staying focused on one area rather than the whole screen, because it's driving me nuts (which is indeed, a short trip).
Thank you for all you do!
Completely agree. It’s been frustrating lately to view
would it be possible for you to post a progression video of how dealing with corkscrew claws can be corrected, or to the degree that it can be corrected, in a single cow? I love those videos, to see how you trim them for weight distribution, but it can be hard to visualize how that will influence the cows foot in the future. I'd love to learn more about that
Thank you, I’ve always wondered this myself!
I love watching n learning about hoof trimmking, you make perfect sense to me...thanks Graeme!!!!
Dear Hoofgp. Over the years I have watched all of your videos, which is rather strange because I’m a pensioner from the middle of England, also female. My question is, do you have an absolute favourite cow? I’ve seen some where you’ve struggled to heal them and we’ve prayed for them. Looked forward to the next process that will bring them back. So emotional. Thankyou Graham, Craig and everyone. God Bless xx
LOVE LOVE LOVE the long video! Appreciate how much time and effort goes into committing to an entire day filming! Love the music as always! Thanks Hoof GP! 💜
LOVE the long video!! Thank you for all that you do for all these cows!! And thanks to Ashley and the kids for keeping you going with so much love and care!!!! 💜💜💜💜
Thank you for the subtitles I would have been lost without them. I'm from Australia and used to work with a Woman from Scotland and I remember her being on the phone with someone and they couldn't understand her so they said to her "what language do you speak? We can get someone to speak to you in your own language." She was not amused. I mean no disrespect to the Scottish, I have some Scottish blood in my Family and hope to visit there one day.
I kid you not, when we visited scotland from the states in 2019, I occasionally had to translate for my wife.
YAY! I've really been wondering lately about Gracie! So glad that she was in perfect health and able to be sold. At least we can still see 'baby' gracies
From some of the disasters HGP shows us I’d say healthy hoofs are not too high on the criteria for being sold/bought.
Graeme, have you ever thought about collecting everything you find in the hooves, as a collection? Would be interesting!
OG (from what I remember) stands for Original Gangster. In your case it means someone who's been there since the beginning. Oddly enough The Hoof GP popped up on RUclips for me after watching Dr. Pimple Popper. 🤔 Guess RUclips is getting to know what I like to watch. I also love animals (although I can admit I'm slightly fearful of cows even though I've been around them all my life, my parents raise beef cattle and my grandparents milked when I was a kid) so I get the added benefit of knowing how much you're helping these simple creatures feel better.
I'd love a Craig!!!! Please deliver ASAP. California USA. A Craig would love it here. I would take good care of my Craig. HUGS
Daisytails noooooooo his mine.
@@tinaa2437 🤣😂🤣
Its so nice to see how far you have come with your RUclips channel ,I hope you are a big celebrity in Scotland . And you have a wonderful family. Keep up the good work .
Over 1.7 MILLION subscribers!
Your herd is growing indeed.
Your wife is adorable. She has NO reason to fear the camera.
Very interesting line of work. I’m always grateful for folks caring for animals.❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the update on Gracie cow 812, Pay no mind to others I love your hair.
OG is Original Ganster for all those who were teens in the 90s! Love your videos glad to see we aren't the only ones with chaos in the mornings!!
You're doing awesome man. I love to see people doing the things that they enjoy and having a family that supports it. Mrs. Hoof GP seems like she supports you in your adventures man. Again a big HELL YEAH man on living your dreams and helping those cattle.
I have really loved watching your channel. I am a Microbiologist and did some post grad work on dairy cattle. We looked are the different microbiome in dairy farms and it was eye opening for me... the fermented feed they used was one of the worst smells I have come across.
I can’t imagine how much work went into the design and manufacturing of all that hydraulic work in such tiny parts. Worked in hydraulics for years, cool machine.
Knowing someone is thinking of you is not what gives you a feeling of warmth. It is the hair, that hair would keep anyone warm!
I love to learn new things so I enjoy when you explain the small details on lesser injuries.
You are pretty gentle with that grinder for as aggressive as the disk are great job
Hi Graham, I'm Sophie, I work as a tailor in Sweden. I started watching you cause of general intereste in learning 😅 But I've veen having issues sleeping and I just love watching you to fall asleep, I guess I've always been a sucker for a story of a beautiful girl who gets a better life. And man... You give them all to me! Beautiful cows, thank you for being their hero ❤️
Speaking of your talk on the dirty crush: I learned long ago that”You only get one chance to make a first impression”. I commend you about your schedule of cleaning your equipment. It shows (to me) the good work ethic you have. Plus a wicked sense of humor. 😂Love your content and especially the color of the crush, truck accents and sweatshirt. Green! 💚 My favorite color!! 💚
Bailing twine is very handy for so many things!! :-) I used to have a load of it when I had horses (lots of oat grass and alfalfa bales).
I live in a tiny apartment in the city but buy bales for my guinea pigs save that twine like it's gold😆
baling twine and a spool of baling wire. ( I'm old school. but baling wire is super useful.
The baling twine bit is funny--and timely. We have a big "wad" of it and I'm constantly thinking I need to bring a trash bag to the hay lot to get rid of it. I'm glad I haven't! Even ranches in Wyoming, USA are held together by baling twine!
@@MsMorganGirls Some people are said to be able to keep certain machines functioning, using nothing but baling twine and chewing gum!!
@@MsMorganGirls- Twine is being used on hay bales because it is organic and eventually breaks down just like the hay itself. Plus, cows sometimes ingest the bailing wire which then causes significant damage to their internal systems.
Miss 7 and I seriously love watching and listening to you! We love in Tasmania and my 14 year old, house mad daughter put us on to you! Thanks so much for all you do, we love it!
Always love the music you add to your videos, adds to the enjoyment of the video. Would love to know who the artists are, if it’s allowed
The first cow on the second farm-so pretty with the clean, all-white face! Glad she was an easy fix.
Great job! That was so kind of your wife to bring lunch.
Thanks for sharing. Huggles Always
I remember the series you did on 812 Gracie but never thought I am one of your OG. Then again I remember your original Wompa and how you said it was better than the GP1 (the crush you designed and made)!
Is Kev still working with you or has he gone and that's why you don't need the "baby" Wompa?
Glad to be in the herd! Your content is fascinating.
OG= Original Gangster.
😂 Looks like at least the sixth one to explain OG!
You’re awesome I love that you care please keep the good work up
I miss Gracie, where has she gone? I bought the book for my grandson & we often talk of her. I know farmers don't always show sentimentality where animals are concerned but she had such a following & the farmers wife did so well out of the art work etc. I'm so surprised they moved her on especially after giving birth to so many calves & the milk she gave over the years. Surely she deserved a well earned retirement on the farm with her family. From a loving fan.
I've watched a handful of these videos now. Not because I appreciate cow feet, but because you're so fookin wholesome. May be the most wholesome man on all of youtube, forreal
Looks like your merch needs to include a Craigie-boy Keychain! This was great to watch, and my sound was good. It's always interesting to see the difference between the various farms, and your extension is really shaping up.
Oh man…. a 30 minute video, those wonderful songs you used to use all the time, Ashley and the boys, and we each get a Craigie Boy?! I feel like Christmas came early!!! For real, I know the longer videos take a lot of extra work, but they are so appreciated when you’re able to do them! Absolutely love all of you. Would be happy to have a Craig, but I think I can’t afford one, and Susan might have something to say about it. Haha. Keep being awesome! ❤️ (And fix the autofocus 😛)
Great video glad to see the humor back and of course the serious teaching of hoof trimming.
