Great ending Josh! It's tough to lose any animal on the farm. So glad it turned up!
I know right!
Sweet reunion….nothing like a happy ending.
Thermal drone’s may be a good investment for future locations and heard management.
Soooooo happy for you, moma, and the calf!!!!!🎉
Hey Josh! This situation changed from reluctant resignation to joy in the blink of an eye! Ma Nature is unforgiving and very few get a second chance. You'll have to name that calf, "LUCKY"! Whew! What a relief!
Wow that is amazing that after 3days the calf survived... that might be a keeper cow with that much determination to live.
Yay!! You HAVE to keep that one now; it’s survived so long without its mama, it MUST be special! 🤩🤩
lol.....it's special alright ...this calf has been a little hide and seek calf ever since it was born
I'm glad the calf showed up.. my only suggestion is when you do your search, start at the first place it was at then progressively continue to work backwards. That's just my thoughts. Have a blessed day sir.
keep watching and you'll be surprised!!
Buddy sure is smart so smart he was hoping that calf wasn't way back in those briars😂 he really didn't go in there lol good dog good people good video
great ending.mom an calf reunited.thurmal imaging drone the way to go for sure.buddys definetly a good farm dog tracker.hunted with bird dogs for years.smart dog
I’m happy for you that you found your calf.❤
We moved cattle years ago and had left a new born behind. The cow actually jumped two fences to get back to it.
Love great outcome Yeah ! Like the good shepherd left the 99 to go find the one lost, praise God thank You that Josh found his lost calf.
Cheers Josh
Awesome ending !!
Man, that is not the ending I was expecting! So glad it’s back.
Soooooo happy for you, moma, and the calf
Great news baby is back with mom, that will surely make your day. it's always tough to lose any animal especially when your life is all about animals.
Josh and his dog remind me of Barney Fife and his dog Blue !
Great day ! especially for MOMMY !
So glad the little one made its way back! After searching like you did, that calf’s name would be Houdini lol. Again glad it’s back
Glad the calf made it back
I'm glad you got your calf back. We recently moved our cattle across the canal. A calf stayed behind that we didn't know about. We actually went back the next day only to find an upset momma and buzzards eating what the coyotes left. Which wasn't much. When I was growing up, we had a calf get spooked by a crop duster spraying the field that surrounded the corral. Calf was gone for 2 or 3 days. Luckily it found its way back. It's always something.
that's totally what I expected here!! So awesome that it all worked out!
Two thumbs up! Glad the calf turned up. You mentioned springs. So nice to have them on a property. We have a few of them on our 162 acres in NW Alabama, including the springs that feed our two ponds. They still are flowing into the ponds at the driest and hottest points in the summer.
never can have too much water on your property that's for sure!
Wow what a plot twist at the end! So happy for the 3 of you, amazing how that calf can go a few days without its mom.
Enjoying seeing u trying so hard to find ur babe calf -hoping u find it ✝️🙏
watch till the end my friend! You'll love it!
Great video very happy you found the calf and its reunited with its mom you did a good job of searching.
A lot of the areas you searched look like a lot of fun with a forestry mulcher!
That was crazy! So glad the calf came back. Must have found a really good hiding place.
Yes it was!
Wow, better name that Calf Lucky Lucy! Can't believe it survived!
Good out come for Stoney Ridge Farmer :) Awesome to see your calf back. We searched for one for 3 days and on the 4th day the little bugger finally came out. The cow was sure happy to see it as we were too. She finally could quit bawling. We had given up. So glad your was ok and I hope it stays with Momma. Sure like your videos.
oh congratulations to baby returning
WOW,sorry about your calf
Something smells with this scenario and then the ending was fantastic. Can't believe all the comments before watching the video or they would know what happened? Smdh
Glad the calf found its way back
That’s a very hardy calf and a determined one to be able to get back to mom one calf to be keeping on the farm 😮😊❤
WOW i am glad you found it
That calf woke up and everybody was gone, good that he found his way back
3 days later!! Crazy huh!
Glad it came back
I shoulda skipped to the end. Lol so glad they are together again. ❤️❤️
that's like reading the first page and the last page of a book....gotta see the fun parts! lol
Awesomeness
Awesome ending!! Great job on searching!
Great ending! 😊
Josh, I'm so sorry for your loss. words elude me
Awesome. Im so happy for momma cow 🐄 has her 🍼 baby calf
Score,we are now looking for a pair of cow with their calf's,after learning the bond they have we are not wanting to get babies alone without mama
you can get bottle calfs and they'll bond to you, or buy a cow/calf pair...but beware the sale barn...the cow/calf pair you get may be a cull or not thriving! Trust me I got burned!
YAY!!! Baby made it back!!
One downside to rotational grazing I had never considered. They can really hide those boogers and well the first couple of days.
That is awesome!
Awesome Josh, Awesome 👍👏
Wow!! Calf Found It's Way Home.. Where Do You Think It Probably Went After All That Search & No Luck?
I love happy endings! Yipee!!
I sure as heck was expecting you had a theft issue. It still exist. But great news Josh. 👍🏻👍🏻
WOW! I really didn't think 201's calf would ever be found
Josh, you could put GPS tracker's on the calf ear tags. This would be helpful for the first six months.
That’s no longer named by its number but now, Lucky.
what you don't know is the calf went to Vegas, got a tattoo lol and became a longshoremen, good thing the baby came home :)
she looked a bit more experienced when she came back lol
🙏🙏❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸. God works in mysterious ways. God Bless y'all. John V. Michigan
You are the suspenseful Hitchcock of regen farming😃 I was all nah, nature's just doing its thing, your search was forlorn. And then you go and drop the happy ending in the last few seconds. You had me welling up man😂
I thought for sure that calf was gone! What a great ending to the story for sure!
Again someone else to blame...the sky's falling!!
I sure hope you watched the entire video ....sky was falling at the end....it rained a calf!!
I like happy endings. I wonder where the little rascal was?
That calf is smart or something lol
Hey Josh thank you for the video and I'm happy that baby cow found her mother woo
Yesss!!!❤❤❤
Mommas don’t lose or neglect their babies, unless the calf is sick or it’s a bad momma. Mommas don’t call for sick calves or if they are a bad momma.
When moving cows, if a calf is not with its mom, leave mom behind so she can nurse and protect her baby.
Was hear. Wooooo
Oh good they came back! Yeah we had a calf be still born last year and a friend (and something of a mentor with farming) commented that it sucks but if you have live stock on the farm eventually you will have dead stock.
brilliant xx
Hey Josh, I'd call that one Lucky.
no doubt!!
So glad you got the calf back! I'll bet that little dawggie was hungry
for mama's milk?.
no doubt!!!
Good deal, you never want to lose a calf. Mama said thanks.
Trail cams are a good investment
The ending I was hoping for, my 1st thought was Coyotes.
A thermal camera on the drone or even a handheld thermal monocular would be great for this type of scenario!
Josh glad you found the calf nice ending you and buddy keep doing your thing from northern ohio
Thanks 👍
Awesome news Josh. But where did it go and hide. Guess that’s going to be the big mystery ?
We just lost our best boer goat buck. I had to listen to the book of Job on repeat to get it together. He was perfect and would have been our herd sire. This is what happens when you keep a herd, whether it's cows, goats, or other livestock, sometimes you lose one or more and for anyone whose never lost one yet congrats but dont get to thinking it can never happen to you. I'm glad yall found the calf in the end!
animal loss happens for sure....it will happen again, we've been very blessed to have healthy animals and a very low loss rate
@StoneyRidgeFarmer also he was our first ever loss, so i was a bit overwhelmed tbph
Thank you God 🙏
Turn the cow back into the old pasture, she will lead you to the calf.
keep on watching brother! You'll be surprised !
Happy news, Josh
We had this happen looked everywhere couldn't find calf so decided to let out mom follow her and right to calf she went and where calf was we had been by it a handful of times and didn't see it so grabbed calf and she follow us and the calf back to the pasture she was suppose to be in
You should use heat tracker on your drone
$10,000 for that technology! Pricey stuff
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I had no idea???
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I thought it was just an added benefit that you could purchase with a drone
I bet she had it laid down hiding and when you moved them it got left behind? I've done it, but my pasture and numbers are very small compared to yours so I found her pretty quick.
👍🏻
Praise the LORD!
That's Indiana Calf!😂
This is why my godfather had white cows and calves. He always said you can see them in the brush.
Shit happens all of the time. Nature being what it is dictates how things go and no one could or should be held accountable. I have worked on farms all of my life and been through this too many times. only time will tell.
keep on watching....you'll get a pleasant surprise!
201 is a good momma!
JOSH BLAME IT ON THE DONKEY
Great ending
Thanks man I was so worried
Calving is when chunks of ice break off at the terminus, or end, of a glacier. Ice breaks because the forward motion of a glacier makes the terminus unstable. We call these resulting chunks of ice “icebergs.” Icebergs can be BIG.
If a calf falls from a glacier when it breaks how does one say that?
#401 for ever.
Calves don't "just disappear" there's Bones somewhere. Look for Crows or Vultures, Hire a Falconer to look for clues. You need a Better Nose to find clues.
keep on watching brother....for sure I'm using all my senses and experience but you won't believe what happens in the end!!
Don't mind him, just goin' on adventures.
lol
This is part and parcel of animal husbandry. If raising cattle from cows to calves you will experience joy to grief.
You will also see monstrosities. Like calves with two and half back legs. It is very sad. I experienced this before I was 14 years old.
40 years later I’m tree farming. Farming for nuts. An acre of macadamia nuts yields the same income of ten acres of grass and cattle. Trees don’t cause trouble and provide shade on a summer day.
yeppers...some like crops and some like animals...I'm more into animals, however stay tuned we're heading out to plant a ton of trees in a future vid!
🌹🌹❤🌹🌹
No drone? Black cattle should stand out on that landscape.
burried in the brush on a mountainside is tough to see brother
Why don't you see if you can get the boy scouts or some organization to help you search the woods?They're always looking for something to do.
Sorry if you lost them
bhahhahha...getting any young person to help is as rare as hens teeth these days my friend
If you brought mom over would it respond to her calls? Do calves call out if lost or injured?
typically we'd have mom and the calf calling to each other....but this little calf was not responding...I hope you watched to the end!
I have a feral cat that lives in my house with me, Miss Midnight. When her kittens were two days old, they needed my help and mum knew it. She LET me take them! She had been very protective of them, getting mad at me when I got to close before, but, this morning it was just different. She actually stood back and watched as I took them. She knew. Mum didn't want to be inside, however. Later that day, I heard Miss Midnight outside looking for her kittens. I still had them and I didn't want to bring them back out, so I lured mum in with food. She got the pleasure of having the door slammed shut in her face after she came in. But, once I showed her that 'I still got your kittens here' she quieted down and was like 'bring them to me!' As soon as I put one down next to her, Miss Midnight rolled over so the kitten could nurse while I brought the rest of them to her. I promised Miss Midnight that once she was fixed, she could leave if she still wanted to. Miss Midnight knows where she is safe. She never even asked to go outside. But, yes, mum will get upset if she loses her kids, just like we would. I'm so glad that your story also ended well. It was a good thing I went out when I did...if I had gone out maybe five minutes earlier, I might not have been aware of what was going on. She had moved three of her kittens onto the patio. I went inside to grab a container (I used a 7-11 polystyrene cooler). I held them against me to warm them up (they were soaked and COLD) and put them in the cooler to help them keep warm while I figured out what to do next (I never had to do a kitten rescue before). I was so glad when I caught mum and had her taking care of them (who is better than their actual mum). It's been almost 4 years now since that day...Miss Midnight still lives here and is loving it more than she loved her outdoor life. But, I've noticed that with the ferals...all of a sudden, one day they didn't show up. Then show up the day after like nothing happened.
Lost one in the creek once while on jury duty.
