FYI. I´m also glad JEFF is back on the ranch for another OWL 2024 Season; this young STUD is worth solid GOLD BARS! JEFF´s experience, maturity and leadership is priceless at any given time when called upon to handle any job in the field. JEFF works hard and smart as any 18 year old cowboy in the country, that´s a fact. JEFF is my Captain America and a HULK at that! Thank you JEFF. GOD bless you my friend.

Good video Erin. You had good help but you are a good leader.

AWESOME teamwork everyone- truly an amazing coordinated effort👏👏👏👏 Thanks for taking us along.

Erin you’re doing amazing !! I love how you chose to keep the children of social media and keep their lives private. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 We all enjoy these videos keep them coming

I probably sound like a broken record, but your videos are so GREAT! The way you record, edit them, and how when you are talking it's like we are there partaking of a great conversation! 🙂

Thank you, Erin! That was the first time I have ever seen branding of cows. I have never been a part of one. It was fun to watch. Great teamwork!! Have a great week, OWL!!🤠

My late Uncle used to keep out 2 Bull Calves and not castrate them. Both would be raised to 1200 # them entire meat made into hamburger. 1 was for the family. The other was for a local fundraiser. They held a Flea Mart once a month and sold bowls of Chili Beans with mest. BEST HAMBURGER EVER ! People fron San Francisco would plan a 100 mile trek just for the Chili

Erin, when drawing up meds via needle, pull the plunger on the syringe back and fill it with air. Then insert the needle into the med bottle, push the air in and the pressure it creates, causes the med to fill the syringe without muscles.

Enjoy your day. Thank you for sharing.

I am glad you are not showing your kids, it will help keep them safe. I been teaching on line safety, you are doing the right thing, never put our kids your kis on you tube or other media site, it's the first thing, predators, pedophile s and traffickers check out and target, yes I know people do not like to talk about, but it could dave their lives, never allow any kid to have their own social media under the age of sixteen, Florida is the first state to mandate this. Thank you for practicing safe computer practices, I wish more parents did this.

Being constantly reminded how they were there and helped too or just in the background and defensive over someone expressing their preference for Mike's video's and editing or gratitude towards his dedication towards the ranch...

Secret when pulling out of viles - push air with plunger into vile it will release vacuum and pull out the amount you need - it will flow faster
