This one really lifted my mood - as things started turning around you got all excited and goofy and it really made me smile. I know we get a moist in every video, but has anyone been keeping track of whether we get Brian's surreptitious thumbs up every time?
The cycle of life at Sonne Farms. Baby cows poop which fertilizes the fields which grow the crops to feed the bulls which fertilize the cattles which make the roasts that feed the farmers which farm the fields and herd the cows so they can make more calves.

As a resident of the great state of Texas , we’re not upset. It’s 70 plus today lol. Thanks for the great content , claving is coming along great for Brain and yourself.
Brian & Cole, so glad to hear that all your calves have made it through this harsh cold snap and are healthy. You can tell a Sonne Farms purebred Angus by the way it's coat shines. You boys need a Milwaukee M18 cordless heat gun, they work great. Stay safe and warm.

Hi from Georgia, Did I ever tell you about the time I said Thank You to a Farmer/Rancher? No? I would like to say so now! THANK YOU, to you & your Father! I also just stopped complaining about the weather here in Ga. I don't think I would ever make a cattle rancher, those baby calves are just too cute, I would want to keep each and every one! Enjoying your video's very much!

Brian, I once again say that you are so fortunate to have a young son that loves the cattle farm and is so readily available to help with chores. Good help is hard to find these days and to have a son that rather than bolt for the glamor of the outside world truly seems to love the cattle business. I know the constant presence of the KZread camera can be worrisome at times, but a son/good buddy is rewarding. Can’t wait to see if Ellie becomes a mother.
I Got Hay In The Boot! New T-shirt.
Watching the two of you work makes me tired....soooo...time for a nap! Love your humor! The world needs this!!
Can’t tell you enough how I enjoy your channel the honesty and hard work is refreshing 😁👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Dude, tell your dad it is so damn hot here in Florida right now, about 82 and bright sunshine. We all got a jump in the pool. Plus all of our businesses are open and we’re gonna go anywhere we want to eat dinner. My wife and daughter are going to head for Disney World tomorrow and enjoy Epcot center. Wish you were here. Love your videos!
Love your videos you and your dad work very hard on keeping the critters a clean place to have their caves I hope yaw get the warm weather soon ...
Thanks again fella's,Ms Ellie. Blinded by the light, rapped up like a deuce in the middle of the night. Calve on.
Really good video, like always. However, this one was a bit more humorous than normal. Thank you, guys. Stay warm.

For me, cold is hard but drastic changes is harder. At least when it gets cold and stays cold I am reminded just 'once' it is cold.
I love how clean you guys keep your cows and calves...
Memo from the Engineering Department: Dear Sir, That ain't a design flaw, that's an integral part of a calf's defense mechanism. First line of defense is to run away. Second is to open the bomb bay doors and release the biological weapon in a smelly warm stream in the direction of the predator! Think of it like a tail gunner in a B-29! If the smell don't stop 'em, maybe the slipping and sliding will slow them down enough to get away! Try pulling and see how that works! If satisfactory results are not achieved, we have a somewhat upgraded model we like to call a Holstein! In this model, you not only get to feed, water and clean up after, you have the distinct pleasure of playing with her huge udder two or three times a day to gather up the moo juice! If you're a morning person and love to drink copious amounts of caffeine laden brown water, the Holstein is the model for you!

Just love your humor of barn Heaven son. LOL. Keep them coming maybe a little longer would be awesome!
I just really think your calving barn is the best. How great is this to include the in floor heating system. I would think it wouldn't take much heat to keep everything on track. Shop and barn with one boiler, brilliant. We try to keep good machinery on the farm as you do. My 93 year old Dad says it best, "You pay for good equipment weather you have it or not." I think your calving and handling machinery will easily pay.
It's amazing how you guys can still be so funny while working in the freezing cold !
Thank goodness for the Sonne Farms crew and all their machines to keep us entertained !
great video! Thank you!
Sonne Farms vids go right to the head of the list. Must watch first or I won't feel fancy OR moist. That's all I have to say about that.

2021 winter vortex was a little tough here in North Central ND along the Canadian line. Our town set a new record of -51 broke the old record of -50 and that's all I got to say about that. Love your video's, quit calving 3 years ago so enjoying watching you from the Lazy Boy. Hope for continued good luck and safety to you boys!
Lol that cow "struting" at 14:48 then stumbling was kinda funny. Glad it was injured. Hope she wasn't too embarrassed. Another enjoyable video. Thanks.
Wow lots of calves, we don’t start calving until next week. One of the best part of the year!! Love the vids
those calves are so cute. amazing how you all deal with the cold and take such good care of them.. stay warm.. spring will come
Well, I won't be eatin no jerky anytime soon now!! Lmao. Did I hear Cole say "moist"? Lmao love these videos!!!

Hi Cole, Texas here, actually Deep East Texas. We were down to 9 maybe 7. It was cold, don’t know how y’all do it! Busted pipes no water or electricity in an “all electric” house for almost a week, lots of staying snuggled underneath the covers with the wife. We actually had snow that stocked❄️ very seldom do we get snow that actually sticks. It happen twice within a week or so! Thanks of thinking of us. Enjoy watching you all, I love Ellie.

Love watching you and your daily farming life. A ‘shut up you know nothing city gal’ suggestion, but might it be quicker and easier to get a big ass leaf blower when you are doing the final clean of the calving barn (when you pitchfork the sides)....it would be a bit dusty, but would get the nasty straw out and dry the floor much quicker....and then when you refill the barn, you could blow all the straw out of the doorways which seem to get stuffed with straw and thus very hard for you to shut....anyways...hope the 🌞 shows up soon and starts warming you all up soon.

Thanks for acknowledging Texas. We were struggling but watching you guys made us feel better. Keep up the great work and videos. 🤗
Thanks Cole for mentioning the temps/loss of power/frozen pipes/etc. to those of us which watch your channel from Texas. It was a rough couple of days, and for me temperature in the low 40's inside the house. Lots of people have been left with bursted pipes, and the damage from this. Being originally from the Packer state, and these kind of temps, this was a tough stretch of days to go through.
I bet your date likes your leg up move. Cole and Mr. Brian are the cattl men. Ranchers of the century.
Oh wow memories. Once my feet get cold, I am done. SO Grandpa said, go out in bare feet in the snow and walk around in it. So I did.....got frost bite. I was such a dummy. But they all laughed. Thanks guys for the REAL life of farming. Grain farming is one thing; but livestock adds a totally different perspective. God Bless you!
Congrats on all those healthy claves! Really enjoy the vids, keep it up!!
Love to see old school a man with a speed wrench . Remember safety is number one on your farm .
Those are a bunch of pretty calves.
I jumped when that heifer charged the camera, thought it was coming right at me. 😲
Today, I realized the farm is Ellie's paradise!
Young Sonne you lucky your dad saved his money and built a nice calving barn. Paid off this winter Please say Thank You Dad and thank you for the great videos ✅
Got some awesome looking calves hopefully everything continues to go good with calving
That was so cute you and your dad thank you both have a blessed day 🙏🤝💗💗✨🤳💌

Another great presentation of cattle and father son adventures. I'm sittin here shorta and a sweatshirt in 30 degrees weather.
Loved your ending. I live in San Antonio and appreciate your concern for us down here, but most of us got through it OK. I admire what you guys go through in this weather, taking care of not only yourselves, but all the animals which are entrusted to your care, regardless of the weather conditions.
Hi Cole thanks for the thoughts I'm very grateful for our fireplace lifesaver for sure nice looking bunch of clavies have a day love from TEXAS
Pa is this heaven? No this is south dakota son
I am so amazed at you two and the ingenuity you possess. Real ranchers that love their work and those snot nosed, slobber faced cattle. Thank you.
