  • We are finally working some cattle in our new cattle facility. In our previous video, we caught all the cows and calves. In this video we move them around inside the barn, into the bud box, down the double alley lane and into our Arrowquip squeeze chute. We are vaccinating, tagging, black legging, banding/castrating and worming.
    We used the following:
    Dectomax and Safeguard
    Covexin 8
    Vista 5 SQ
    EZE cattle bander
    I have linked the videos of us building the facility (we still have some work left to do).

    • @FarmerHunt
      @FarmerHunt  3 года назад +2

      We do run into that some. Typically they can find their way back to each other without us having to step in though. We have had them get separated on opposite sides of a fence and sometimes they have a hard time figuring out how to get back together.

    Just found your video while looking at new squeeze chutes. I like y’all’s setup. Looks pretty efficient. Now that you’ve got some time in are you still liking the slam latches? Have they held up?

    • @FarmerHunt
      @FarmerHunt  2 года назад +1

      Thanks! So far we really like them, especially on the bud box. If it’s an exterior gate we will usually chain it also just to make sure nothing gets back out. For the interior gates we haven’t had a single problem with the slam latches so far. Saves a lot of time!

    Smart design. Is that single white calf a Charolais cross?

    • @FarmerHunt
      @FarmerHunt  2 года назад +1

      It is. That’s the only Charolais we own. My wife wanted a cow a few years back and that’s what she picked out.

    Can't hardly wait to get ours setup! those slam latches look nice. Any concern about gates getting bent and messing up how things line up?
    Looks like it made life a lot easier!

    • @FarmerHunt
      @FarmerHunt  3 года назад +1

      It’s very nice to finally be working cows in ours. Feel like we’ve been working on it forever. The slam latches are really nice! The gates also have chains for backup but we didn’t really use those. I don’t think we’ll have any issue with the gates being bent. My only concern is that little piece that catches on the latch but hopefully they will hold up. The slam latches are mostly used inside the barn so if something happens and one doesn’t work right the cows can’t get out too far.

    My goodness, are all those vaccines necessary? I don’t even worm my cows…parasitic load is negligible. All natural here on my farm…

      Preventative vaccines have always helped out cattle as well as dewormer

      @@FarmerHunt if you say so, just don’t think it’s necessary…I do have a small regenerative farm and rotate the cows daily and back fence every three days…No wormer, no vaccines, no fly control…works for me….NE Alabama
