Your hoof trimmer is so calm and quiet, cows calm and quiet. I admire the way you and your father move your cows with body language and quiet voices. They are lucky cows.

A lucky cow would be living it’s life as a pet out in a huge pasture, but I have to agree he does treat his cows well and I thank him for that. Many farmers aren’t so nice.

A lucky cow would be a cow who was free and had their intrinsic rights given to them: their right to keep their babies and feed them what is theirs, not ours, to have babies if and when they want to, to procreate naturally without force and to enjoy freedom without being treated as if she was a slave to humans.

I remember the family farm in the 50's and 60's. Our cows never had life this good. Often times the cows would get what was called hoof rot, which I think was a form of fungal infection. I remember my dad would put pine tar on the hooves but from them standing on their feet. We never would dream to put the cows in a stall that would tilt them over to be able to work on their feet. I lived in the dark ages when it comes to today's farmer. Thanks, Eric. I really enjoy your posts.

yeah me too. My grandfather's poor cows spent all their entire lives in a headlock. It bothered me as a kid. They tied their legs to the stall when hoof work was required. Antibiotics for infections and mastitis. I used to work the summers "haying" and milking in the morning and evenings. When bedtime came I was asleep before my head hit the pillow.

Eric that was amazing video I wish we had something like that for horses in the 60s we had about 18 on the farm we had to trim the feet and put shoes on them I've never seen cows that look so nice and very healthy as your cows thanks again 👍🇺🇸

People who think all dairy farmers are abusive towards their animals need to watch this guy.

I recommend you watch videos of cows being released into the fields after spending the winter indoors. They jump so high!

I did this job as a teenager 33 years ago. Worked for a guy who had a hoof trimming business. We had a electric over hydraulic setup very similar to this. My job was to help herd the cow in and out of the table and to clean up the manure that every cow dropped when you picked them up. The worst part was the smell of the hoof as it was being cut. Imagine smelling your fingernail trimming and then multiply the potency by 1000. Still not as bad as the smell of emptying a cow's stomach when butchering (my other job that summer working for his dad's farm butcher business).

That’s called cow tipping ha ha ha

That contraption for cleaning hoofs is cool. The cows seem calm once they are on their side. Thanks for posting this cool video.

A high point of my day Eric. Thanks for the informative video. You have well cared for cows. Thanks!

Thanks for your videos! I'm a Dutch guy, currently in quarantine and your videos provide some nice content to watch. A long time ago, as a child, I visited a cow farm once during a school trip. So I'm not familiar with the work on a cow farm. It's nice to see your daily activities. I like it a lot that you do not add music to your videos. Just the sound of the farm and your voice has a relaxing effect.

I'm amazed that they don't struggle more when you lay them on their side. I need a tool like that to do my toenails.

Makes my heart so happy to see how awesome you and your dad take care of these cows, such well taken care of and spoiled ♥️ I wish all Dairy Farmers were like you guys😊

Hopefully, he can do my feet soon. I am getting to old and fat to get down there for maintenance. COWS: Oh what a relief that is! Feels so good, I can actually think better! Thank You Eric. You and Family as well as ALL Farmers are True American Heroes ‼️

Looks so easy with the glue you use. I've done a lot of foot trimming myself when I was a herdsman. I had to mix two compounds to form the glue. It would heat up before setting. The crush they have now, makes it much easier to trim them. Foot trimming was one of my favourite jobs on the farm. Always nice to see them walking better, almost instantly afterwards.

I love how dedicated you are about cow health and comfort!! Love the content!

Hey Eric u have been a big inspiration for me. I just started watching your channel about a half a year ago and i just got in to farming so much. Even I’m surprised I would get in to that type of stuff. So yeah, thank you for making really good content have a nice day 😄.

Loved the way the cow jumped first joy when she was trimmed. New watcher

I held off as long as I could before watching this because I know it'll be several days before I get my fix again. I'm still trying to figure out 2 things, why did 34 people give this a thumbs down and secondly, why do they watch videos if they don't like them. They're probably people that think you shouldn't be raising these cows for milking when the grocery stores have all the milk people need or they think you should be bathing a few hundred cows so they aren't dirty from being cows and laying in their own poop. This was another good video Eric, I always like watching you and your dad sorting cows and steering them (no pun intended since these are cows) in the right direction. Hope the plant you get the wood shavings plants reopens soon for your farm but mostly for their workers.

سلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته وبعد ان

Your a great American! Thanks for showing your hard work... Always enjoy

Howdy from Sacramento! Thanks for sharing a part of how you do your work and what it takes to keep your stock healthy.

After seeing a few comments about Hoof GP, I watched a few of his videos and 2 things struck me.... 1. How good he is at what he does and 2. How much better you treat your cattle than the places he works at. Always enjoy watching your videos, keep up the great work and thank you for helping keep the store shelves stocked with milk in these strange times we are living right now

I watch the Hoof GP regularly so I enjoyed this vid.

loved "Bessie"- hopping after her pedicure that was just so cute!

Hey man I gotta tell you, your cow look healthy. I like to see that on a dairy farm. Lots of dairy's don't have cows that look like yours man. Keep up the good work

Glad to see that even during this pandemic you are doing everything you can to maintain herd health and cow comfort. Love your videos!

Eric, very, very good video. Real world!

I could watch the hoof trimming all day. I don't know what it is about it but it is relaxing watching it.

I respect your work ethic born an bread farmer i live it shoutout from Texas!!👊👊

This is why I admire dairy farmers more than grain farmers......tenth generation and this boy still knows how to work! Carrying gates, running a shovel., all with a snap in his step.. I’m pretty happy to see that work ethic.

It seems there is something new to learn about your farm each time a video comes up. I look forward to seeing them. It was real interesting to see what goes into taking care of the hooves. You sure take great care of your cows. I hope things get back to some sort of normalcy so you can get your supplies and sell your milk at a good price. Thanks for sharing you day with us.

It's so satisfying watching the dirty and rough hoofs turn clean and smooth

In my country we don't have these facility to take care of the cows, so watching your video gives me new perspective on morden farming

Thanks for taking this city boy along for yet another aspect of Farm life

He knows his job,hoof trimming is a work for professionals !!

Awesome video! Your cows are so calm (I know I'm not there 24/7 to see if I"m wrong..LOL) and well cared for! Very impressed with your operation! Thanks for another great video!

Love ya boot wash. Love the turn on the side cattle crate, beats all that back breaking bending over and leg ropes. Such a big improvement to ease of handling an awkward job.

This is amazing! It's great to see all the care you give to your cows.

I never knew dairy farming required all that work. You really earn your money. I like the hoof trimmer. It sure makes it easy on the cow and it is safe.

One of my favorite parts about working at the farm, I worked with calves like like 4 20yardx20yard pens...... was rotating them and cleaning out the old sawdust with the skid steerer. Putting down lime, new sawdust and new bedding... the calves were so happy and would run and jump around when they were let back into the nice clean pen.

That's awesome you guys think of your cow's foot health and I didn't even realize what goes on in the care of cows. Appreciate your videos it's a cool learning experience.

I just love watching the cows! It's amazing how skittish they are.

Even cows love a good pedicure!! Excellent video!! A good watch on a Sunday afternoon!!

Love these videos, yall got it so good and organized, I got one of the oldest farms in kentucky

Your cows are amazing just like your videos I watch them from Ottawa Ontario Canada

Back in college in the late 60’s, I and another student were sent out to interview a farmer. On the ride there we joked about how stupid farmers must be. When we sat down at their table, they said, “We bet you told each other that we were going to be just a couple of stupid hicks.” Oops, Busted! We then learned a little bit of how much intelligence and knowledge to takes to run a farm. You continue their great work. Thank you!

I watch the hoof g p utube channel also! I’ve learned so much about cows hooves. ❤️💕 I like both of your channels! Glad I could see this happening on your farm! Because I know it goes on! Thanks for sharing. Glad you don’t seem to be one of those dairy farms that is having to toss their milk, for one reason or another... ❤️💕

i just love your videos eric, i learn so much about american farming from them, keep it up buddy

Yee-haw happy happy 🐄 love it.I used to help my Grandpa at his little ranch so much work to do.

I'm happy u postet again, I love ur farm and the work u do it 👌👌

What an amazing machine! Kudos to u in investing in their health and well being. Love from Las Vegas!

Thank you! While we're at home, you're doing the dirty work making sure we're all fed!

You take great care of your cows. It’s educational to watch the trimmer work on the cow’S feet and his knowledge of hoof care. Another art is a horse farrier and the strength it takes to stand in that position is tremendous. God Bless and I hope you’re selling all of your milk

Awesome.....people have no idea. Videos you share are simple and fun and informative.

I know how hard you and your family work in dairy farming. Thank you for taking the time to share your life. You are one of the good ones out there. Drink more chocolate Milk.

Y'all have some nice looking cattle. Great job as always

I’ve never done this , I helped my Dad but I never did the trimming. I just would push cows . I’m still having fun watching . I need to make my Atv channel this interesting lol .good job

I got to get me one of those boot washer for my house that is awesome. Love how you take care of the cows! Like they say Happy Cows Lots of milk!!

That hoof trimming machine that holds the cows is amazing,I never knew this even existed i was expecting the cow to go crazy with stress been in this but they all seemed kinda chilled about it,All looking extremely healthy and clean cows great work :)

Had to sub. Your one hard working young man. Really nice to see in this day and age for sure.

Now I would say these hoof trimmers know what they are doing. Happy cows!!! Peace from SW Florida 😇!!!

Don't you think they'd look good after a bath and I bet they'd enjoy a nice hot tub to relax in after a hard day being milked. Having a water bed isn't that great after the first year or two! Really, I think its great that they have realized that a happy and comfortable cow is a benefit to them.

Splendid video. Saw this machine already in real life and its so handy and comfortable for the cows for their manicure haha

Nice clean looking cows. Foot wash is neat. Need power cables on overhead bars or rubber foot plate over to prevent accident and damage by standing on. Great vid, thank you for sharing, stay safe.

I like the hoof trimmers set up....it makes it easier & safer for him & the cows 👍

I learn something new every day. Never seen cow hoof trimming

Awesome to see how well you care for your cows.

I watch the Hoof GP as well this was interesting to see the difference.

It is tough being a dairy farmer right now....however the cows don’t have it tough, they still get to have their pedicures. The first cow was so happy that social distancing didn’t stop the pedicure man. Thanks for the great video and stay well.

Loved seeing the cow jump after getting her nails done! 😂♥️

What a striking coincidence! I had just had cake and MILK for dessert; then, I actuate my iPad and observe there is a new segment to view. “This one’s a big old cow right here.” I have used some of those words at times in the past, but for other situations than nail trimming. 😆 We all enjoyed that first cow jubilantly bouncing around after she was done.

Awesome Video and Much Love As Always!!!

Great video would love to see you and the hoof gp do a video.. my dream lol. Beautiful cows very well taken care of.. eric your an amazing young man

I wish I lived on a working farm. I’m a city boy and was in FFA in high school. I wish I had continued on my agricultural path! AWESOME video!!! I did SUBSCRIBE!

Whenever you mooove the girls around I chuckle because they have ONE speed. And you just have to be patient with them. ❤️

Love seeing your videos! 🐄🐄🐄❤

Finally. I've been asking if anyone has had trouble getting shavings because I've been having a heck of a problem it's a huge headache.

Love your. Ids keep up the hard (er) work!

The leg locks on that crutch are awesome everybody has their own technique very cool

The dogs always loved when the hoof trimmer showed up. They would eat all the shavings from the hoof.

Cool machine. So much easier and safer than the old days.
