Busy, Busy, Busy. After watching this, the next time I pour me a cup of milk or have a bowl of cereal, I'm going to show a little more appreciation for the work that is put in to producing that milk.
I have a lot of respect for you guys that work in Dairy farming. Right now I am milking just five cows. It's a never-ending job. Hope you have an awesome day.
I wake up at Seven Fifteen AM and you've been working for 3 hours and just finished milking. Makes me feel lazy. I think of you/all dairy farmers when I pour milk on my grape-nuts for breakfast. Thank You.

Eric thanks for the parlor tour, when I was younger I milked in a double ten with 475 cow (plus sick or treated cows). It interesting to watch how others do it. We always fed grain in the parlor, use plain water to wash, and always had lots of poop to clean up. I think not feeding them on the parlor cuts down on pooping. I like how clean and efficient your system is. Thanks for sharing
Most of the pooping it's from how you treat the cow. If you yell at the too much or push them they will poop everywhere. I do the relives milking on our farm and it´s notoriously different how much the cows poop between the guys that milks regulary and I
@@xMarf I have to disagree with you, every cow I have milked at several different farms that feed in the parlor poop a lot. These are top notch farms, there is no yelling, the cows are peaceful and comfortable as they spent a lot of time in the field.
@Rene' Loper @Martin Nanning is correct with what he says that when cows are stressed they will poop more because on my families farm when the hired hands milk they generally have to push more manure to the end of the parlor were as when me or my brother milk we barely have to push any manure because we just let the cows walk into the parlor by themselves whereas the hired hands whistle and yell resulting in more poop
@@reneloper9074 I think in this parlor they have butt pans or crap catchers so maybe your parlor didn't. If the milking stays the same and nobody stresses the cows then they won't crap much.
Very informative vlog. That’s why I like to them so much. So much more goes on that a lot people don’t even start to understand. Keep up your great work.
Alot of work goes into these videos. Trying to milk the cows and move the camera around too. Thanks for the videos and the work you put into the farm. Bet you guy's go threw alot of paper towels everyday. 🇺🇸
I thought you already showed us the milking process, but never to this detail - almost like we were there working. thanks for putting this together, someday maybe I'll be a dairyman......
I was on the wait for a video...Your videos have a relaxing quality to them...I'm an old dude now and since I was a kid I always wanted to work a farm ! I managed a couple small farms in California and loved it ! Now I watch yours thanks
I grew up on a small dairy farm in north east Iowa back in the 1960 to the mid 80’s. We milked around 40 to 50 cows. We had a pipe Line but didn’t milk in a parlor. We went to them LOL. I knew families who had big herds and miked in parlors. Yes getting things ready before milking and clean up after milking takes a while plus feeding. Then watching you I remembered how much water a dairy farm has to use. It took me back. Even tho things has changed in agriculture/dairy farming. That more things stay the same. Still hard work. Cows still have to be milked every day 365 days a year 😀👍🏻🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄
That was most instructive! Any Vo-Ag instructor could use this in their classroom. I do not know the soap you used to wash your arms at the end; however, I fondly remember use Lava bar soap. It contained pumice which took all dirt clean off of your skin.
My husband and really enjoy your videos 40 yrs ago I worked as a vet tech we did some DA so interesting to see you had a cow with it. Your cleaning is impeccable thank you for all your hard work! Keep making videos.
Dude, your channel is blowing up! It's a weird sentiment, cheering on someone I don't even know, personally, but I am totally stoked for your continued success! Thanks for sharing with us, all!
I just saw the video and was amazed by how much you have to do you are my favorite farm channel sorry farmer on the prairie we raise Black aungus caves and in wv and I live it
It's unbelievable how much work goes into just ONE milking! All the time, effort and expense that goes into the process. Thank you for the effort and dedication from you and your family (and all the farmers)!
Loved the little drop of milk on Sashas nose 😂you are so efficient and you make it look so easy you could probably do it in your sleep 😴!! Loved loved this video 😊
It's so interesting to watch the similarities and differences in how you and Tom Pemberton do things. His milking parlor is smaller and a little more "old fashioned" I guess you could say. Either way, it's obvious you both care about your animals and your videos are really informative. One of my favorite channels, hands down.
Worked on a dairy farm in New Hampshire many years ago. I loved it and hated it at the same time. I've watched a lot of your videos and especially this one in the parlor makes me realize how much I really did love that job.
I'm sure many people would think that all you do is attach the suction milkers to the teats, then take them off, so it's good to see the whole process and how hygienic this is. Thanks Eric.
HELLO ERIC THAT WAS A GREAT VIDEO A LOT OF WORK AND A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS TO DO IN A LOT OF DIFFERENT VALVES I WAS THINKING HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW THAT JOB THAT YOU ARE DOING THAT WORK ON THE FARM ??? BOY THERE IS A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE YOU ARE A ONE-MAN WORKING MACHINE GREAT VIDEO THANKS FOR SHARING 👍👍🇺🇸 .P. S THANK YOU FOR TEACHING US IN EXPLAINING THAT WELL GOOD JOB FARMER _______TEACHER 👍👍.
Fantastic, well done, brilliant informative video, Ever consider following your milk from farm to processor to retailer? Make a excellent video and would love to see what your milk is processed into. Would also like to hear about your goals long term for the farm, eg. Herd size, milk yield, milk components, aims and objectives. And obviously, what you have changed recently that has gone well and what has gone wrong, i.e. tell us more about why you dairy farm, not just what and how you do it. Well done and keep up the great work.
Channels like this are giving many people an appreciation for what farmers do. I’ll never look at a container of milk without thinking of all the work that requires to get to my refrigerator.
OMG this is amazing!!! I learn so much from your videos and your attitude and the care you put in to it is just awesome. Your an amazing dairy farmer Eric keep it up
Thank you, thank you, thank you. God bless. It's that simple for me to say. Soooooo grateful for families like you and yours. Sincerely Michelle Pup Harley and Kitty Liam from Arlington Massachusetts.
Very cool to have a full explanation! Awesome to see you care so much about the girls' health. I grew up around my aunt and uncle's dairy and they didn't have a parlour so it's really cool to learn about the whole process as well as the difference between the he two. Thanks for sharing!
Nice overview of your process, thanks for sharing. You and your Dad should be proud of how clean everything looks. You take pride in your work and it shows with the results!
Eric, thank you for showing the after processes with the milk. I think I am one that has requested that. With observation from my uncle several years ago, it is amazing to see the advancement in the process.
I had the pleasure of visiting a Kansas dairy farm about 25 years ago; they had a system that filtered and stored/chilled the raw milk in a vertical storage tank, with a hatch on the top in the barn. NOTHING compares to a ladle of 35f whole milk, right from the holding tank ! What a process and a lot of hard work. Great video and explanation of the entire process.
PS I'm so glad you do your channel. We as people here in our good old USA take for granted going to the grocery store picking up milk, butter, bread etc... Wow HARD WORK.
been watching since the first handful of videos. never disappointed at your professionalism and the clarity of your explanations. keep up the good work
I am a daughter from dairy farm from the 70’s &80’s my daily chores began before the school bus came in the mornings and yes it was early Then after school the evening feeding and milking helping in every aspect of milking. From my days back then to this video lots of changes but I wouldn’t change it for the world! I fondly remember calling the cows in the prep work in the parlor, bottle / bucket feeding calves, and hand throwing silage down the silo to a wheelbarrow for heifers All before school and evenings too ! Hard work but lessons learned carried my sister and 4 brothers through to our now adult life. Those days can never be replaced and most people I know only know how milk comes from the dairy case at the local grocery or big box stores. My parents retired in the mid 80s and went onto their next career which continued hard work my father has since passed and I now raise beef cattle The same Hardwork just in a different setting kudos to the young man doing this video love the boots and the shorts that’s how I live. Continued success to you there is nothing better than the satisfaction of doing a job well and the memories you have made!
I'm just a consumer but I find this very fascinating and very informative also nice to know that he has the knowledge to produce the milk that my family and I drink
Now that is a man who takes great pride in the cleanliness of his farm. I've seen educational videos that don't do as good of a job as you. You're the kind of farmer that gives farmers a good name. Well done sir.
Eric, I am a new subscriber. I never realized the work involved on a dairy farm! I grew up on a truck farm, so no live stock. I am very impressed with your work ethic!! 👍🏻 👍🏻
My goodness what a lot of complex and very important tasks to do. The attention to cleanliness is impeccable and I will gladly pay the price for wholesome clean milk, based on all your hard diligent work. Thank you.
Great educational video for those people who have no idea where their milk comes from, plus the hard work and dedication that a Dairy Farmer puts into looking after his girls ( cows ) 🥰
I've been watching a few milking videos. I have to tell you that yours is the absolute cleanest I have seen. You obviously take pride in your work and respect the health of your cows. Doing an absolute wonderful job, you could teach a few old timers a thing or two.
Thank you for this very informative video! I honestly enjoy every single one of your videos. I understand you can only explain so much about routine jobs but I hope to see more videos like this. Explaining all details about your crops, tractors, etc. I'm a Blackberry farmer Down in Mexico and it's so different from what you and other farmers do in the states... I have few cross as well as some cattle but everything is just so different... They're always out in the feilds here and produce much less milk.
Busy, Busy, Busy. After watching this, the next time I pour me a cup of milk or have a bowl of cereal, I'm going to show a little more appreciation for the work that is put in to producing that milk.
Yeah and having to do it every day 365 a year too now I'd love to be able to just walk through and watch it happen too
James Burke every day three times a day, no less
Brian Fletcher we do 2
Y are you only milking five cows
I have a lot of respect for you guys that work in Dairy farming. Right now I am milking just five cows. It's a never-ending job. Hope you have an awesome day.
@@ehollopeter that's insane. Do you still work there or have you moved on?
I wake up at Seven Fifteen AM and you've been working for 3 hours and just finished milking. Makes me feel lazy. I think of you/all dairy farmers when I pour milk on my grape-nuts for breakfast. Thank You.

Im sorry you have grape-nuts but does the milk make them feel better ? Was it doctors orders ? Lmao
I'm watching this on my way to the morning milking at the farm.
Milk filter was pretty clean compared to some I've seen. Impressed u showed it, didn't think u were going to
I too actually thought he had missed it. Based merely on the fact we always inserted ours dry before milking instead of before cleaning/ sanitizing.
I think this might be my favorite video yet. Always love seeing the magic that goes on in the places we don't normally see or think about!

Amazing what you, your team, and other farmers do multiple times a day, every day, to feed the rest of us. Thank you!
I work at a dairy myself and it’s interesting how similar each set up is but also how different
Love the longer videos. Love to see what you do and getting to learn new things.

Thanks Eric for showing that antibiotics are being kept out of the food chain.
I definitely like the way you make sure the cows tets are clean as possible!! 👍♥️🐄
From a visual stand point the new method is noticeably cleaner. Sure hope whoever is milking for my Walmart milk does as good of a job!
I'm a farmer from Ireland . Love the vids👍
That was most instructive! Any Vo-Ag instructor could use this in their classroom. I do not know the soap you used to wash your arms at the end; however, I fondly remember use Lava bar soap. It contained pumice which took all dirt clean off of your skin.

Yep, still available, but hard to find. I find it in Amish stores.

Fantastic video, as always ERIC!!!

No milking out the play by play with udder stuff and does a great job at focusing on the teat in hand.
And no crying over spilt...

Eric, I am a new subscriber. I never realized the work involved on a dairy farm! I grew up on a truck farm, so no live stock. I am very impressed with your work ethic!! 👍🏻 👍🏻
My goodness what a lot of complex and very important tasks to do. The attention to cleanliness is impeccable and I will gladly pay the price for wholesome clean milk, based on all your hard diligent work. Thank you.
awesome video man! Love the process
Great educational video for those people who have no idea where their milk comes from, plus the hard work and dedication that a Dairy Farmer puts into looking after his girls ( cows ) 🥰
That was great! Helped me to understand it better and answered some question I had. A blessing thx
Great video as always Eric, thanks and Aloha to you and your family🤙🏼
I bet most people, including myself had no idea what all goes into a modern milking operation.
Thank you for making this very informative video, Eric.
Fantástico! Organização, disciplina, limpeza, tecnologia...
Exemplo de ordenha bem feita !
Love it! My parlur has slots in the floor for the manure
I've been watching a few milking videos. I have to tell you that yours is the absolute cleanest I have seen. You obviously take pride in your work and respect the health of your cows. Doing an absolute wonderful job, you could teach a few old timers a thing or two.
This job looks fascinating for me and actually relaxing 😌…. Thank you so much for sharing….. Never a dull video to watch …
Excellent video and explanation. I don't think you appreciate how much your videos are informative about Dairy farming
Thank you for this very informative video! I honestly enjoy every single one of your videos. I understand you can only explain so much about routine jobs but I hope to see more videos like this. Explaining all details about your crops, tractors, etc. I'm a Blackberry farmer Down in Mexico and it's so different from what you and other farmers do in the states... I have few cross as well as some cattle but everything is just so different... They're always out in the feilds here and produce much less milk.
