Thanks for telling us what happened that day. Lost my neighbor a few years ago from a cow attack. You are so right about them being able to move so quick in the blink of a eye.

Dairy farming is a lot of work! I have a small homestead in the US with 9 milking goats and 2 milk cows. Those twins were enormous! Good job, God bless!

I am 71 and my grandfather had a simular story.He lived through it with a gored leg but by twisting the bulls head by the horns,he broke the bulls neck. He was a powerful man. This is an honest God truth

Those cows look absolutely delighted to be out in the pasture!

Amazing bull story about surviving a bull attack, well done Adrian for highlighting the dangers of bulls. Great video re. calving and delivering twin Belgium blue bull calfs, it doesn't get better than that.

The best real life assisted calving I have ever seen. The love this farmer showed for his cow is there for every on to see. I hope we get to see these bulls as they develop.

No I just put other people’s lives ahead of my own. I needed to oversee how that bull would be handle and no one else would be harmed. I’d rather carry an injury than a loss...😉

I grew up on a dairy farm in Michigan, USA. Always had to watch out for the Holstein bull. Beautiful calf’s!!

The look on your face when pulling 2nd one out lol . Excellent work 👍👍👍

Credit where credit is due, you took that calving in your stride, well done with great result, great informative video

I'm glad you shared your story about your bull. It's so true they can be unpredictable. My brother brought a friend of his home from the army on leave and the fellow decided to go off on his own one early morning to walk in the fields. As he had arrived late the evening before, no one had had the chance to warn him where he shouldn't go. He was about 30 feet into the pasture when our old Hereford bull saw and knew he was a stranger. I'd just come on the scene in time to see him clear the top barb - wire of the fence, a good 5 and a half feet above the ground, with that bull huffing on his backside. That bull had covered a good quarter of a mile judging by where the cows stood. Lucky he was fit enough to escape the bull because he was roaring and tearing up the grass on the otherside, showing what he meant to do to the fellow. It made a huge impression on me. I was about 13 at the time and I walked that same pasture daily to catch my horse and I'd always seen him as a big lazy slow mover who had no interest in anything but cows and grass. He was shipped shortly after. Our next bull was a beautiful Hereford with a thick growth of curls spilling over his forehead and he loved to have it ruffled. He had to be brought into the barn during haying season as we ran tractors in and out all day, and the gates around the barn were left open most of the time and he hated the tractors. One moonless night, he got out and wouldn't you know it, the gate to the road had been left open. He roared down the road to the neighbour, who wasn't a farmer, just lived in a pretty house next to the river. He had just bought a new car and 'General' was huffing and polishing the paint on this car, tearing up the gravel as he repeatedly challenged it. My Dad, who wasn't much of an animal person, took up his rifle to go take care of the issue while we huddled, sobbing about our 'cute' fellow's end in the middle of a dark night, waiting for the rifle report. It didn't come. My father had walked down the road with his rifle already loaded and ready to shoot. He said he could clearly see the bull's head in the starlight, his white curls easy to see. But when General saw him, all the rage melted away and he turned into a big puppy dog, eager to show off his new 'toy'. My Dad couldn't bring himself to shoot him. After a few minutes of showing off the car, General quietly followed my Dad back home to the barn. We kept him another year until he wasn't useful anymore as he would be covering his daughters we'd held back as replacements but the gates were always double checked in haying season after that. One of our dogs was taken by a dairy man and it died saving that man from his bull. It had him pinned on the ground, broken several of his ribs when Bear managed, through biting it's face and legs, to get the bull to go after him instead, allowing the farmer to roll under the tractor and escape the corral. You only need watch a few bucking bulls to see just how athletic a beast bulls are and they are never to be trusted. There is a KZreadr, Justin Rhodes who has bull and only 1 or 2 cows. He has sweet, hard working young kids that handle the cows, and I just can't watch anymore. He has had little to no experience around cattle and feels he must have the bull to get calves and therefore, milk, I've suggested AI, but he persists with his pet because he doesn't know when they are in heat. They are stanchioned everyday to milk and it would be so much safer to just follow their basal temperature. I hope they remain safe.

That bull encounter would scar the devil out anyone ! ! No wonder fewer farmers keep dairy bulls to breed their cows. Think that there are children on some of those same farms and they could be in danger everyday. I’m guessing that bull was dehorned. Congratulations on the twin calves, your care and your sanitation. Best video ever, has everything I like. Thank you for sharing. 🐄🐄😷👍

It is great to see that your children are involved in the farm.

Never ever turn your back on or trust a bull no matter how quiet you think they are. You were very lucky that you were young and fit to get out from there, these stories need to be told as a warning to what can happen because we all can be complacent sometimes, and as you said it only takes one second for someone to become a tragic statistic.

I grew up on a farm. We never trusted any bull and kept a wary eye on our cows too. Usually they were ok but they can change so quick. You were lucky to get out of that situation alive.

The cows were always good, but the bulls were dangerous, and unpredictable. Better have eyes in the back of your head when you traversed the pasture.

Brilliant video thanks for highlighting bull safely my father has the same story this was my reason for starting my AI company i promise all my customers i wont attack them best wish to you and your family

Wow lucky escape with the bull. Ours was as wide as a door and docile as a lamb too and moved like treacle. But he'd still somehow end up in another field with a heifer if it suited him. Good reminder of the dangers. Take care.

Thanks for reminding people how dangerous Bulls can be well done Andrew

Wow. Two belters. No wonder she was the size she was. Nothing better than 2 live calves 👍👍👍👍

Some man calving a cow, cool as a breeze. Great informative video keep up the great work. 👌

First time I saw your channel. I'm in Wisconsin, USA. My Great-Grandfather was gored by his bull. He died seven days later. Sir you were very lucky.

You sound like my Grandparents. They were from Ireland. And they have been gone 40-45 years now. Thank you for putting a smile on my face.

My dad always say when a bull comes after you run a zigzag because the bull won’t be able to turn the different direction

Midwest city girl here. I'm also a nurse. I can't believe you survived that bull attack. This video popped up in my feed and I'm so glad to have found you! Learned a lot.

First timer, Tom Pembroke recommended you!!! So glad he did, I totally enjoyed this video!!! From Houston, TX and never lived on a farm but I truly appreciate all farmers and all of your hard work!!!! ❤️🐄❤️🐮❤️🐄❤️🐮

I’m just here to appreciate my c-section 😂 I have twins and a normally vaginally delivery of baby A with breech extraction of baby B (human version of what you did for her second calf) was on the table as a possibility for my delivery but in the end, my baby A flipped breech as well at 30 weeks and stayed that way until delivery so I did not have to deal with a doctor reaching up inside my lady bits and yanking my boy out 👏

Wow! Oh how lucky you were! With the Bull! They do have minds of their own when it comes to the ladys! GLAD THE TWINS WERE OK! Your girls are darlings!

That bull attack story would be worth it's own video. It might teach others how quick they can turn nasty.

There's a video on youtube called mickey moo attacks. It's about a Canadian who 'rescued' a holstein bull. It shows him stroking this soppy (!!!!) holstein bull, but at the end there's some text that says the bull later violently attacked its owner and nearly killed him. Surprise surprise that says it all.

The bull must have been jealous of what you’re packing 😉 in all seriousness the hair stood up on my neck when you were telling that story thank God you lived to tell the tale. Your poor father must have been traumatised watching it happen. We had a huge black limousine go like that.. he flattened me twice flattened my uncle and I got him to come after me again so everyone else could get out he got me as I got to the gate but thankfully I’d no serious injuries I was 19st playing rugby at the time and thought I was strong but I was like a new born baby compared to the strength of him. 2 hrs my neighbour chased him around the field in the tractor to tire him enough to get him into the pen. That bastard was dead about 3 days later up in the middle of the field, man I was a happy guy my father tho was pissed because he was to go to the factory the next evening. I’m convinced something popped in his brain to make him change from been docile all his life to in the blink of an eye as you said a killing machine. Anyways loved the video and stay safe.

It makes the video when I see them see gissas out helping you 👍it always reminds me of all of ourselves helping the old man 😃

Great video. You were lucky to have survived that attack from that bull. They can be very dangerous.

You're a lucky man to survive that, my dad at 77 year ago man more or less the same Thing luck man to survive it

😨 What a story, powerul message never take the risks with bulls, any bull!...thanks for sharing. 👏👏great video. 👏👏

As a kid, I was trying to cross a field that had cows. They weren’t used to me and their owner has just died. They were so spooked. They started bellowing and quickly turned and started chasing me! I was scared to death and I was running for my life. I got to the barbed wire fence and dropped and rolled. The first ones in the herd hit the fence and the rest stopped behind them. Luckily the fence held. I was banged up from the fence but wasn’t trampled to death. It was a close call. No one knew where I was. If they has got me, there’s no telling how long I would have lain there. I was one lucky little girl.

Nice shout out today from Tom Pemberton!

This was a brilliant video. The story about the bull was amazing... You're lucky you're alive. We got rid of our bull, he was young and showing signs of being a real devil. I'll never trust a bull.

Another great video, keep up the great work.

Beautiful babies. Thank you.🥰

Best video put up so far, very interesting, glad you still around to tell the story.

great video adrian they usually say a cow can turn quicker than a bull to attack but still those friesians are dangerous

great video, so many people need to watch, and listen, because their bull is so quiet...... keep the videos coming, thank you

You lucky imagine if you were gone and I'd have nobody to watch apart from farmer phil if I were you I'd of got up and jumped on the barbed wire I never heard such a bad bull accident 🤞🤞🤞🤞keep up the good work

Belgian blues have always been a dangerous game when it comes to dairy cows..risky. I've seen cows not get up after them

@IFarmWeFarm

There are so many strains of Belgium blues or any breed, ease of calving being one we always watch for and the cows we select. Thankfully we rarely have any bother and twins are a rarity which in this case still carried no issues due the cows selection. Cows that can’t get up after calving tent to be calving to long, missed or improper aid

Great video Adrian. Good job raising awareness of bulls. I've recently started a pedigree limousin herd so the advice didn't fall on deaf ears.

Fresian bulls are always the wildest we have cimentle and Herefords because we fatten cattle and they make great bullocks and heifers and they are a calm bull but u always have to be wary

This video came in my feed …I’m an old woman and never been on a farm but it’s in my blood I suppose, great grandfather Patrick OConnor was a dairy farmer in Cavan …as was all before him, he too was quite the jack of all trades like yourself and all farmers , suppose every man was also back then and from all the comments here gives there is still hope for men to be real men! God bless✝️

Thank you for wearing clean gloves every time. Free from bacteria.

Thank you for this video and your story . Hardest working farmers and dairy farmers.. ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Congratulations on the calves.....thanks for the Bull story! My bull got out last night, I had a stick when I went out to move him back to where he belonged....he is an easy tempered bull..but, he snorted and stated bucking....I turned around and got my blue heeler. She’s about 25lbs and fierce! She moved that bull in seconds ! Everyone was safe and he was back where he belonged! Never trust a bull! God bless! I’m a new subscriber 🥰

Your a lucky lucky man farmers are sometimes too confident around livestock when is the video of the cctv coming

I don’t know how or why this video showed up on my video feed, I watched it and found it interesting... A true story, when I was younger I was walking along a country side, and I passed some cow but out of no where, A bull from hell came after me and I have never run so fast in my life! I was so scared, I thought I was going to die that day, however I never saw the fence so I thought it was going to get me and I saw that he stopped dead on his tracks... That’s when I realized that I was safe... I never again walked that road again...Sending y’all blessings from Pennsylvania USA 🇺🇸

And how many supplements do you take a day????? Mmmmm You know nothing not all baby bulls are killed they are kept and fed til they weigh about 1500 pounds and sent to market. Some are bought by other farmers. You don't like what you see go watch a sewing channel

We had a bull at home. He was fine around my dad but never liked my brother. He never did anything but the bulls mood would change in a split second when the brother would show up. I didn't get the same reaction from the bull either despite myself and my brother having similar builds. I always reckoned that someone resembling my brother had treated the animal badly on the previous farm.

Well done on telling the bull story. You are a lucky man. I was done by a Jersey Bull about 3 years ago. My dog grabbed him by the ear and I managed to pull myself out under a fence. The dog saved my life. Dairy bulls are the worst, never to be trusted.

Smile kids are wonderful.

Best vid yet 👍👍

Awesome video!!! Thank you!!

You are very lucky indeed we had a similar incident on our farm . My brother and me let the bull out to service a cow as we had done many times. We had a blower for blowing wood shavings in the mow that saved my brothers life he turned so fast there was no chance. I grabbed an fork and stabbed for all I was worth many times. Long story short the last bull we ever had .

Fascinating watching you calving cow,calm and quiet even second calve breach birth,👍,Your experiences will the bull was very interesting Adrian ,I think on BBC1 on Sundays in the south England,Country File, then Ifarm family.well done.

Thank God you were able to recover from that attack 😻

That scene of the cows running looks like a stage! The background looks fake its too gorgeous!! Lucky you (& cows).

Been about 30 years since I saw a cow calving. Great video again Adrian. I know a few fellas that have had bulls turn on them some lucky some not so. I've seen first hand a cros bull in action. The power speed and agility of a big bull is frightening. Friesians are probably the worst. Be safe👍

Massey Ferguson or Case IH Adrian 😁😁 Also that story is a message to all Dairy farmer's. Oh and Adrian a buzard would definitely lift a rabbit, one lifted a friend of my mams Jack-Russell when she and the owner were down the fields 2years ago checking horses

Great video very insightful and interesting
