Congrats again on the new operation any new employees ? or are the 802'S putting in more hours your family working together is priceless for the same common goal.
Great job! Understand the change for the cows, do maintenance work for dairy farm. They went for double 5 parlor to a 32 carousel, it was quite the struggle to get cows trained. BTW, they went from 400 cows to milking some between 900-1000 cows now. Keep up the great job and really enjoy your video. You have all the respect in the world from me for starting farm up again.
I’m told if you keep your holding area a little darker and parlor really bright cows will naturally want to come where it’s brighter, farm theory on RUclips/tiktok from Northern Ireland has talked about it with his parlor.
Really like ur channel & all the hard work ur guys put in to get this new operation going❗️. So nice things are settling dwn with the cows.. Looking forward to ur next video❗️❗️👍😊😊🇨🇦
Awesome video nice to see you're new dairy is running smoothly after all you're hard work Cow's looked so content and relaxed even when you were putting out the feed Really enjoyed the video as always looking forward to the next one Best wishes from Ireland
Been looking forward to seeing this parlor up and running ! , sucks a little that your milkers are camera shy , you guys did well in the amount of time you had , where did you get your new herd from ?
Where in Vermont are you guys located? Seem you're close to the Berkshire area. I grew up in the Highgate area. My dad used to work for David Dragon and McCallister and a few others. Cool to see a farm so close to home.
@@802Farmers that’s very cool. I took over my father in laws dairy farm years ago and started it back up. All went well until one of the brothers wanted more for land then he originally stated. Long story short in 2015 we had to sell all of our cows.
Glad to see the cows are settling in a bit. Gotta be a stressful transition but you guys are pushing through.
The first 4 days where definitely stressful. They are settled in now and are loving it. Thanks for commenting. Love your videos!

Thank guy. Much appreciated! Cows will get better with time for sure.
Very impressive results so far. Nice to see a Dairy go back into production
Thank you. Don’t see it happen often
I cut a 1/4 of one side of a 5 gallon pail out and put it over my grain bin motor. It also keeps the belt dry. I have been replacing lights with led
One of the 3 has that done. Gotta do the other two.

That might be true. But once cows are tried they will walk right in either way.
You guys have big time hard work pays off
Thank you. We did a lot of work for sure.
Enjoy the videos! Keep 'em coming.
Thank you

It's not very often you see a dairy farm brought back to life.
No it’s not. Very cool to be able to do this.
Feeding those lovely ladies, a favorite sight
Thank you for watching!
Great video. How are the cows adjusting to there new home. Everything looks awesome. So happy for you and your new adventures
They are adjusting well. Takes a little bit of time to get used to a new farm.
Everything is looking great nice job pulling it together
Thank you!
Been looking forward to seeing this parlor up and running ! , sucks a little that your milkers are camera shy , you guys did well in the amount of time you had , where did you get your new herd from ?
Is what it is. From the home farm. Thanks for watching!
Great video guys
Thank you!
How long has this farm been out of dairy production? It is really cool that you were able to purchase it and bring cows back!
2-3 years.
You might want to look at LED conversions for the lights you have Save on electricity and longer life on the bulbs so save money there.
If we do anything definitely go with LED
Nice parlor I milk in older double 8 herringbone in wisconsin milking 350 cows
Thank you. Good amount of cows tm nice threw that

The return lanes look like could use as palpation rail. Nice set up.
Never heard of that. Thank you.
@802Farmers that's old school wi stuff.
Where in Vermont are you guys located? Seem you're close to the Berkshire area. I grew up in the Highgate area. My dad used to work for David Dragon and McCallister and a few others. Cool to see a farm so close to home.
We are in Berkshire
@@802Farmers I thought so.
cows asociate people with feeding time
They know when the feeds coming. 👍🏻
You're also milking at the home farm or moving it to this farm? Sorry if I missed any any of your videos.
Milking at both.
can we see the gates go up after milking them when they exit thanks
Yes
How about putting up motion light up in the walk ways
We will most likely just put new lights in.
We will most likely just put new lights in.
How many cows your running in the new place ? Have you expanded ur quota or took pressure off the other farm?
200. We brought cows from the home farm
Kinda dumb question but what kind of paint did you use on the pipes? Thanks for the videos!
So I’ve watched a little bit of a few videos. Are you a new start up of an old setup ?
We have our main farm. We just purchased this farm that hasn’t shipped milk in several years. We started it back up.
@@802Farmers that’s very cool. I took over my father in laws dairy farm years ago and started it back up. All went well until one of the brothers wanted more for land then he originally stated. Long story short in 2015 we had to sell all of our cows.
How did you fill that barn with cows ? Did you have a surplus on home farm or auction or cattle dealer ?
We brought these over from the home farm
How many cows are you milking at the new farm?
That was my question
200
Good Morning
