Just took delivery of a Lewis Oiler last week. So far so good. I put a lick tub next to it to draw cattle over to it. It wasn’t even 2 days and they had figured it out. They are rubbing on it and it’s doing it’s job....very few flies on their faces. I’m running a 10% permethrin / diesel fuel mix.
Cole you are so lucky to have your Dad sharing his life lessons. I am 65 and I am still getting life lessons from your channel,listening to Brian. That’s what makes this channel so awesome!! 👍👍👍👍 🥴😂🤣😜
I’m here for the content, but stay for the father son razzing. Lost my pops a year and half ago and I miss that interaction every single day. Cherish every moment with each other!
Cole and Brian, I just do not know where to begin. This video exceeds my wildest expectations! "Every 60 seconds that goes by on our farm, a minute passes." Philosopher on the Prairie, Cole. Brian, you have just bloomed before our eyes like a giant South Dakota sunflower! The topper, however, was the marketing of the oiler that Madison Avenue and $1,000,000 could not have produced a better advertisement! Cole, I have told you before that your future lies in product placement and endorsement. I am so proud!
I don’t think anyone should be sick of helping cows and there health that is not just about making money on the farm it’s caring and being good caring farmers to you stock keep the good work up and good luck on getting to the 100.000 subscribers
You boys do all that you can to help your cattle. If I win your tractor you have a long way to bring it to Scotland! Look forward to you bringing her to my door. Look forward to seeing how this Wagner Cattle oiler works and if you have less problems with flys on your cattle. Great video keep them coming
You are definitely # 1 when it come to the farming channels with someone named Cole on the channel. The other channel puts out sub-par content daily and really stretches the content to make a shitty 8 - 10 min video. On the other hand when you guys put out a video its always topnotch content and on your channel nobody is begging in a fake whining voice for a 👍. Pops and your dedication to be yourself and not acting for content is refreshing. I appreciate this channel, thanks again for staying true to who you are !! # 1 Cole on the Tube
again we are blessed with the Brian and Cole comedy show.....What a treat to watch the two of you getting things done and sharing words of wisdom. Thanks guys.
I can see it now in Ad Age Magazine, “Busch Light plays it safe - pulls the $3.5 million Super Bowl ad and dumps it all into emerging RUclips channel out of the South Dakota”
Instead of diesel fuel consider liquid paraffin, soybean oil or canola oil. I suspect a food grade oil may be more acceptable to your complaints department. You may be able to get rancid vegetable oil for next to nothing. I used to drive a diesel and purchased rancid peanut oil at a processing plant near El Reno, OK. Car ran just fine but it’s exhaust was strange. Thanks for sharing this educational video. Looking forward to seeing your next video. Greetings from NE Ohio on the southern shore of the Great Swamp Erie. Peace brother.
Two things....use a back rub (in front of the water) soak it with diesel and add your fly control (change your control year to year). That hose you have for your spray tank, I would suggest get a yellow hose (feed stores have them) and warn any kids around or that come around "don't drink out of the Yellow hose".
I love my Cattle Oiler. I bought two exactly like that one after the farm show a couple of years ago. It works pretty slick. I kind of wish I had gotten the dolly for them but I lift them with tractor and they carry pretty good. I use a bottle of pyrethrin and top it the rest of the way with diesel. Works good. And I’ll tell you those mineral feeders are tough as nails. I have had old cows literally beating the thing to death when I put a new bag in it and it hasn’t got a scratch on it.
😂🤔😂You must be joking when you said that we'd be bored watching the cattle getting sprayed. I love watching their reactions to it. The way that some hate it, some seem to love it, and some are only interested in the FOOD, and couldn't care less what you're doing to em.😂. Some, I think, actually understand what's going on, and would stand all day in the spray. Plus, it must be relieving them of the heat, which must be nice for em. You just keep on filming what you do day by day. That's what farming is. That's why we're all subscribed and watching. Just keep on'a'farmin. Rich UK 😘
We used to have a Lewis Oiler just like that. The mineral feeder will eventually buckle in the middle and the diaphram in the pumps are problematic. I highly recommend the easy way cattle oilers. They are all cotton wick no mechanical pumps and work excellent. The mineral feeder is in the middle and almost 100% protected from rain. They are about half the price of a Lewis
On the gates that you need a stretcher. Take a piece off pipe 3/4 inch diameter. Weld a chain to the pipe. Fasten the chain to the post. You can then use the pipe as a lever to open gate. Works great.👍👍👍👍👍👍
We used to have an oiler on the farm in the 1950s. It was a long loose horizontal chain with rags wrapped around. Oil (I do not remember what kind) was poured over the rags and the cows would rub on said rag covered chain as needed. I remember the cattle using it every day, they liked to rub on it. Worked well (we did not know other ways back then). Fly strike is no joke.
Just a comment about the fueling while your Dad waits at the gate. Out of every tractor, and combine on the farms Dad had ONE RULE. The machinery was not put down for the night until it was fueled up and topped off, oil checked and added and everything was greased before the day was over. That way it was always ready for the next use.
Try feeding garlic in your feed or mineral. Talked to a friend of mine yesterday that has been doing it this year and said he no longer has a fly problem. It is very strong smelling stuff it was in the back of his sxs and I could smell it in the bucket 30 yards away.
I really like the shots you do from inside machinery. Makes for an interesting experience. And i bet you're glad that, when you're taking pellets out to the "kettles", that they only have back teeth... If they had front teeth, I'd imagine it'd be like a piranha feeding frenzy! Strip a man down to just bones in seconds!
I have 2 Lewis Cattle Oilers. I hope you have better luck with the pump system than I do. We have adjusted multiple times and our cattle dont move it enough to pump. We went back to the hanging rubs. They use them better in our opinion.
Daddy Sonne jokes can’t get enough of them! Lake Sonne returns to spite the rocks! Those poor cattle’s 🐄 being eaten alive from those terrible flies hope the spraying helps them. Excellent Oiler to help. How’s Bactiari going?
Not sure I expect you to drive all the way to Illinois to bring me my tractor, but if you do, it will be an honor to host you fellas. LOL. I'll buy all the beer you can drink to rehydrate ya's when you get here. Having a beer with the father, that was incredible enough to compel the son back to the farm after college, would be an honor. Cheers Gents.
Hope the Oiler works for y’all. I have a suggestion if you would spray anymore. If you put your feed in a U shape so the cattle would be in a semi circle. Would that work? I don’t know how you would get the calves. Good video. Put that stretcher in the gator and leave it lol. God bless y’all
So take a chain or wire tie it to the gate post and then attach a piece of wood to the chain. Then you can leverage tension on the gate by pulling on the piece of wood tied to the gate post to open or close the gate.
Was wondering ifyou could send us some of your rain over here in CA. We are literally burning up and we have 3 more days of dry lightening coming thru tuesday. Thanks for making me smile today.
Yep. I'm outside of Marysville. We've got ducks and the poor things have been getting ash on their feathers for four days. We've set up misters for them. That storm coming through is supposed to be no rain and more lightning. Isn't that just dandy? Like we need more fires :-(
I watch a farm video who is in the UK, and i love watching the cattle brushes. The cows really love them and it is funny to watch. Love the jokes and tales from Brian. Stay safe and have fun.
Hey you guys made the You Tube announcement. RUclips mentioned your name as the new Farm Tube sensation. Great job. Mentioned Welkers and some others also...
Cole...the answer is, executioner. Brian, great wrestling story. Can we please get some video of the Oiler working in the near future..please. Don’t forget the drone. Great video. Have a great weekend.
I never seen cattle sprayed till I watched your videos! Diesel fuel won't hurt the cattle I have fly spray I use that smells like diesel fuel! It will kill weeds also! Thank you for sharing
Nice job on the videos, I look forward to them everyday. I know they are time consuming but please don’t stop, if anything and if you are able, post them everyday. I like to watch them with an adult beverage.
Just braids back a loop on a soft smooth rope. Put your rope around your gate post and through the loop wrap around your gate stick and gate post a couple times. Last loop around the gate stick toward you and used like a block and tackle. Throw it in your side by side and leave it there no need for a come along or fence stretcher.
You both make me laugh so much! 🤣 The way you say "oh my gurddd" 🤣 I said that to my son yesterday cz he's cleaned his bedroom! It came out like how you say it and I'm Irish! 🤣🤣🤣 I can't wait to see some footage of the cows using that equipment in the field.... 🙌🏻 You gotta get some cattle brushes too.... The smiles on the cows faces when they use them for a big scratch is awesome! 🤗
For many years I traveled back and forth from Ohio to Lyons South Dakota. What a beautiful area. Cannot wait to see what you both think of Ohio when you bring the tractor. Would you know if the Rollin pin is still open in Sioux Falls?
Was gonna suggest a few weeks back, around here they set up a rub post with burlap sacks and coat it with diesel and seven dust....cows rub it and onto each other
Thanks for posting another good videos- and I’m glad to see at the end the idea for the flies. I’m no farmer but I was thinking that there must be an easier way to coat cattle against flies. I sure hope it works out well for you.👍👍❤️❤️👍❤️
Did you know that right-handed people think with the left side of their brain and that left-handed people think with the right side of their brain, therefore, left-handed people are the only ones thinking in their right mind? And yes I'm not just a viewer but I'm also left-handed as well

Sonne fix on a Saturday just what I need to cheer me up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Have you looked into terramycin eitherasa powder which l dont like or as a. Aerosol spray which I like for pink eye.
I don’t think anyone should be sick of helping cows and there health that is not just about making money on the farm it’s caring and being good caring farmers to you stock keep the good work up and good luck on getting to the 100.000 subscribers
I think it is very very humane of you and your dad to continue your fight to control the flies, therefore continue to record it. God Bless
Spraying cattle for flies is part of farming. You are showing day to day life. Love the videos
You boys do all that you can to help your cattle. If I win your tractor you have a long way to bring it to Scotland! Look forward to you bringing her to my door.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful video with us really enjoyed watching it great beer hope you enjoy it but thank you for filming this video for us
I can see it now in Ad Age Magazine, “Busch Light plays it safe - pulls the $3.5 million Super Bowl ad and dumps it all into emerging RUclips channel out of the South Dakota”
that would be okay
@@briansonne814 a quote from Norm Peterson on Cheers:
" I never met a beer I didn't drink !"
Story time with Brian. We've been missing that the last few videos. There always great.
Great way to start my Saturday morning off, Awesome Video and Much LOVE as Always 🌞 Farms!!!
Good morning!
Your Dad's the greatest. Love your channel.!
Thanks so much!

Sweet set up for the cattle hope it works out ok. Gotta like the pops jokes you both get work done and having awesome time together good times
He's right, nothing better than hangin out with the Sonne boys. Especially on a Saturday. Just call ahead to those cows Cole, they'll open the gate.

That hose you have for your spray tank, I would suggest get a yellow hose (feed stores have them) and warn any kids around or that come around "don't drink out of the Yellow hose".
We processed calves today here in north ms flies suck here too. It’s awesome you and ur dad farm everyday together. That’s special.

I love hearing your dad stories it is so hilarious tell him I said hey and y'all be safe
When you're helping cows, you're doing good!
Brian & Cole you two are great. One of the thing's I look forward to is seeing your next video. Thank you guys and your family.
Awesome! Thank you!

Sometimes the older ways are better than some of the new ones
We are proud of you to dad 💪🏼
Your dad is awesome !!
I love how you used Range Cubes to spray flies on the ole Bovines.
Awesome content as usual. The relationship between you and pops is priceless, so entertaining!!
You guys are the best. Always enjoy your videos.
Great Saturday morning video, thank you!
Love your videos, dad's stories and hope the oiler helps! Will never get tired of your videos! Stay safe and healthy!

Awesome video good looking cows and corn nice to see oilers coming back used to use them when we had a barn full of hogs ..
Love you guy's, ❤ I look forward to your videos every day ❤😃
Thanks so much
Always enjoy. Thx for the post.
Best RUclipsr forsure! Down to earth guys that u can relate to.
Thanks much Cody!

Pick the ear of corn 🌽 that makes them feel good!! 😄 Love it!! It’s all about the FEEL😂🙋♀️💗
Nice having some cold snacks
Looking forward to seeing how well the cattle oilers work.
Daddy Sonne jokes can’t get enough of them! Lake Sonne returns to spite the rocks! Those poor cattle’s 🐄 being eaten alive from those terrible flies hope the spraying helps them. Excellent Oiler to help. How’s Bactiari going?

Dads story is a life lesson, everyone needs to pay attention to that part! Lol
You'll are blessed if you were not affected with the storm that hit last week

Great lesson Dad
Hey you guys made the You Tube announcement. RUclips mentioned your name as the new Farm Tube sensation. Great job. Mentioned Welkers and some others also...
Interesting, I too wonder were we can find that
Brian I love your sense of humor .Come on You Tubers subscribe that tractor needs a new owner .
The flys are bad here in ky also, you will see when you deliver the tractor. Thanks for the great videos, always looking forward to the next one
You bet!
“Executioner” is the person who pulls the rope!
I am for sure getting this oiler for my critters.
We have 2 of those Lewis cattle oilers. They are awesome
Nice would love that tractor. I just live a few miles east of town
Any time a Beer is involved makes it a Good Thing
I am 58 and always wanted a tractor, this could just be my luck to win yours. And free Delivery, cant beat that.
Same mix I use the oil in the diesel makes the fly dope last longer
I would love to have that older tractor. I used to drive one like it
Cole...the answer is, executioner. Brian, great wrestling story. Can we please get some video of the Oiler working in the near future..please. Don’t forget the drone. Great video. Have a great weekend.
We use to put a lever made from a small branch and some smooth fencing wire at our gaps. It really helped.
Loved the story! Also not a farmer but love when you and all others are given things to try.
I never seen cattle sprayed till I watched your videos! Diesel fuel won't hurt the cattle I have fly spray I use that smells like diesel fuel! It will kill weeds also! Thank you for sharing
We have one of those Oilers and love it

You gotta get some cattle brushes too.... The smiles on the cows faces when they use them for a big scratch is awesome! 🤗
I agree with Sassi Lou, you need to get you some of those scratching posts up and around the farm
Good video Cole and Brian
Daniel from central Mississippi
For many years I traveled back and forth from Ohio to Lyons South Dakota. What a beautiful area. Cannot wait to see what you both think of Ohio when you bring the tractor. Would you know if the Rollin pin is still open in Sioux Falls?
I do not know!
Looks like a good Oiler, I need a Brewster too
Steaks & corns for our supper here, too 😋
Was gonna suggest a few weeks back, around here they set up a rub post with burlap sacks and coat it with diesel and seven dust....cows rub it and onto each other

Cant get enough of sonnefarmsdad stories, left-handers rule!! Kudos on the booger joke also. 👍
Did you know that right-handed people think with the left side of their brain and that left-handed people think with the right side of their brain, therefore, left-handed people are the only ones thinking in their right mind?
And yes I'm not just a viewer but I'm also left-handed as well
Already gettin that youtube treatment!
Demo probably never would have happened without the publicity!
Epic
You'll like that oiler I think.
You now sound like your dad "60 sec a whole minute goes by" hahaha left handed 💕😍😎 lol love you brian....enjoy your barbecue sonne family 👍🙏💕
Good joke from dad I am also a lefty hope that fly thing works those poor cows those flys are Relentless
