Wow. What a big baby. The pull was probably the best I have seen on youtube. How he worked with the moms and pulled when she pushed instead of pulling it straight out.
Your Dad would make a great vet. I like the way he help the mom he was not aggressive pooling the calf he just let the mom do all the pushing he only help a little. So so nice of hem respecting a animal :)

Cole, you are blessed with a Great Father ! Make sure to let him know that you are thankful for all of the Knowledge that he shares with you. Love the Father son bond !
Thank God and country for youall and all farmers and cattlemen and women who feed us and the world. Bless America on this 4th of July 2-020!
Real interesting for someone who isn't a farmer. I have seen caving before but not a difficult one delivered like this. You guys really do have to know it all. From welding to delivery. Whole new appreciation for what you do!!! Great video. Thanks!!!
I love hearing the wisdom passed down... even if it's all been said before! I call that "The wisdom of the white hair". Good job dad! I know your son is a smart one but sometimes we just want to help them avoid learning things the hard way!
“Sometimes it’s easier to retain it if you learn the hard way”. Couldn’t agree more! Nice pull & Great video gentlemen
Thank goodness you were there for her. Saved them both. Your Dad definitely knew what he was doing. I'm sure he has a mountain of knowledge to hand down to you. Also you both work very well together!. Enjoy your videos❤

Pay attention, your dad is a very wise man. You will learn from his experiences.
Best one yet!😂 Big pat on the back to Dad!
I like the addition lately of your dad. Lots of knowledge. Glad the little (big) guy made alright!
97 pounds is crazy, don’t think I’d be keeping that bull. Calving season is always fun
You pulled the calf in a very professional way .you were slow ;you pulled when the heifer pushes so the heiffer does not suffer .

New sub here, clueless to farming but learned a lot. What I like about these videos is not only the hard work effort put into this, but also the compassion. I like the videos with your dad in it education by experiences. Cherish these moments...
Your old man seems to be warming more and more to the KZread stuff. Love the videos mate, keep it up. Plus g’day from Australia
I really enjoy listening to your dad. Great video thanks
Cole, we were just talking about pulling calves! I can tell Brian knows his business. It can be studied all day, but until you live it you don't understand it. You do understand it - you have lived it! You do what must be done.
Gentleman that was a master class demonstration of how to calve a cow using a calving stick,instead of the usual clowns that panic ratchet in a straight line and then wonder why they have a dead calf prolapsed cow possibly a trapped nerve and if she survives this ordeal struggles to get back in calf. Bull calves nearly always go full term .🇬🇧👍 p.s your farther gives good advice remember it well 👍

I came here to say this. Sometimes the person on the ratchet looks as though they're working a water pump, but that was lovely - you took your time and pulled with the heifer.
It’s like I’m hooked on a tv show. Came across one video and was fascinated and now I’m trying to watch all of them to get caught up and current. Love what you all are doing and love the chemistry between Cole and Brian. Keep doing the videos, teaching, drone video, and of course having fun.
Your daddy is hilarious. Glad to see a channel with some cattle!!

I love the minisota vikings jokes 🤣
many young ones come out of university think with big ego and looking down at jobs and hard works like this from above,i was like that too. Until i understood how toxic office and city life is. Life on farm teachs man real connection between nature and simplicity of survival.Also with its all sweat and hardness it brings special peace into soul as one doesnt have time to speculate and finaly can compare with that buzzy-ness (bizniss) out there. When listenin this father plus looking at his hands, color of his voice and sense of words...it is real treasure. This experience to start to comprehand it can be long process.
Holy cow that was a big calf! That heifer was a trooper. Nice pull!
A cow come-a-long and words of wisdom, quite the edgeamacation!
That's the part nobody ever films. Thanks for taking the time to film it, we know you had your hands full at the time...literally!
Good on you dad nothing like a practical education and your son is a good listener. I was also taught my parents on a sheep dairy and beef farm over 64 years ago and alway stored there information in my brain it is still with me today. Good luck with the rest of your calving from new Zealand
Your dad needs to do seminars. Not just on cattle but how to be a father.

Fred that is so nice of you to say!
You to are doing a great job showing and explaining the good and the bad of having cows and calves. Being able to watch things like that and have your dad to talk you through those tuff moments is priceless! He seems to be a very smart man and a good teacher. I’ve been around many different things when it comes to animals but I’m not a good teacher when it comes to helping others learn it.
"Welcome to South Dakota" 😂😂
God I wish my dad was still around. You guys have the best relationship. Keep it up.

Great to hear wisdom from your dad my father isn't around and my dad isn't into farming and ranching but I wanna start a small farm/ranch
Mr. Sonne Sr. Thank You. 🇺🇸
Looks like Cole came home for his education. Like father like son, huh😁
Really enjoyed your fathers insight ... man knows cattle
informative video,your dad and you really take good care of your cattle,I hope that the rest of your calving season goes trouble free.
Your dad is a smart man. Great video.
Wow thanks for showing the calving was so awesome I thought it was really nice to see thanks have a great day
Good video. I’ve only had to pull one calf in my little operation so it was good to see how you did it.
You gents make a fine team.
Great video! Words of wisdom from Brian. I have lost a couple of cows and calves this spring. Learning the hard way. I was raised around cows on my grandparents farm and was away from it for many years. Last year I was able to purchase that farm and am starting up a small cow/calf operation. The day you loose one are tough but you keep going.

It’s nice to see the respect you and your Father have for each other. Very interesting video‼️ I’m from Chicago and your Dad knows the Bears and Packers have die hard fans. Difference is the people own the Packers in Wisconsin. That was a humongous calf, wow so much to do on a farm. Major respect I have for both of you knowing so much 🙌🏻
Love to see the faces my farm girl would be making during that, hug!! Nice learning experience for me, thanks!
We watched this video right before our first time heifer calved. Because of this video I knew what to do when she wasn’t able to calve on her own. He wasn’t quite 97 pounds but he was pushing 90. With a giant head. Thanks for your videos!
Most informative, great video.
That was a nice father-son moment at the end.
Your videos bring back alot of memories. You have me hooked on your channel.

Wow. First time I watched this video. Brian, you showed tremendous skill pulling the calf. You coordinated with the cow’s contractions, pulling when she pushed, and didn’t hurry. I’ve seen people who just winch the calf out as fast as they can. Hurts the cow. Your way is so much better. 👍👍👍
really good video very instructive and we really enjoyed it
Great job! Can't wait to see those magnitude calves. Go Pat's
Very good video, very informative!
Awesome awesome video, keep 'em coming
*WOW! I grew up on a small farm, and never watched a calf puller in action! Cool!*
Nicely done, gentle and controlled , well done

Video's from Farmers need to be sent to the President so that he can show the likes of people like mini-Mike just how hard Farmers actually do work. This was awesome. Brought back a few good memories. We also used to breed and raise rabbits. Now that was interesting - to say the least.

Bloomberg do that? Heck the calf is as big as he is... So, I say he wouldn't have any chance. Plus he'd have to redo his manicure and I'm sure he wouldn't do that.

Yup that was a big calf...reminds me of last year from our heifers the smallest s 94lbs biggest as 104lbs thank God we only had 8 heifers last year...good luck with the rest of your calving and keep up with the videos
Ohhhh I know what you mean, bubbles a first time calver ,her calve was massive she started having it just after I finished the afternoon milk I put her in the small barn, it was 4.30 ish finished the jobs I had to do checked on bubbles popped home had a sandwich went back and sat down with bubbles, at 5.30pm she was pushing I got the roaps around the calves front legs i was going with her contractions calve came out lie there for a few minutes then had a heart attack and it was all over, got the vet out he said most unusual but it was too big for her, it was massive I've never seen one that big before, in the 10 years I've been working with cow's poor bubbles she was such a lovely tempered girl, her next calve was normal 😀👍thank goodness.

Yes we have dealt with this mud for so long! We wish we had better conditions for our cows and so that is why we try to get the close up ones in the barns. I have never worked harder to keep our cows happy but we keep trying to do all we can.

Interesting video!!!great job pulling that fat calf!!!😁
Really interesting one today, seeing how that calf is pulled and the patience it takes. Terrific video. Will you have some pairs of your own again this year?
I remember one year when I had my hiefer bull who was really good for hiefers(nothing ever more than 75-80 pounds) on charolais not bad at all. Anyways that hiefer bull separates his shoulder and was done. So we had a mature bull who was maybe throwing a 85 pound average calf so dad put that bull on the hiefers. 30 hiefers 70% c-section rate. Had 4 go one night to the vets. That was the last year we bought charolais bulls
Great job
