I love your mum, she’s so positive in what she does.

I had a little grin to myself when she said "I love when they're all laid down and cudding" It always makes me smile when I go in the shed at work and they're all laid in straw, quiet and chewing away. Shows they're not stressed or wanting for anything, which means I've done a good job

21 minutes Yayyy!!, you made them longer! Wonderful to watch thank you

Another fab video! Makes me miss being on the farm!! Look forward to the next.

Love “big vegetarian dogs”! Yet another great video from Flank. I learn stuff every episode. Paul. West Wycombe Village.

Brilliant video rufus can’t wait for the future vids👍🚜

Woohoo 1/4/19! Flank time! Cattle month. Loved loved beginning and ending clips too and music.

Loved it. Being brought up in Warwickshire I can well remember stopping the car by a gated farm field to view the cows. They always managed to wander over close to see what was going on. To me, they always seemed to be very large pets! Greetings from a Brit residing in the USA.

Lovely video,nice quiet contented cows.

Your mum thinks like me. We both love cattle. They’ve all got their own quirky ways, but they’re all adorable. Lovely video Rufus.

£15 for a bale of straw... Try €35-€50 in Ireland for round bales of straw, last year I actually had to pay a man 65 euro for a large square

I would love 2 work on a farm I like the busyness and work this is a job overlooked although it can b hard it has 2 b done and not enough people like getting dirty n getting their hands in I love watching these videos n I love ur mums personality n the world needs more people like her.

I would love to see a video on your sheep and lambs because my dad has a farm and it would be Interesting to see how you work your sheep Please and Thank you lol

You need to get her a security camera so that she can watch the cows from the comfort of the home

Just like we farm 😊. We have Herefords and hill radnor sheep crossed with a charollais and Beltex . Love your youe tube films ; keep telling the public what it is like on small family farms.

Before the first word was even said I liked the video :)

Tell your silly government to stop faffing about with screwing up Brexit and instead place your Mum on the Honours List! We non-farmers are so ignorant of all of the hard work (and muck) farmers have to confront. Thank goodness farmers are willing to do all of this. Looking forward to lambing season.

I love your videos I personally think you all do things Better in England

Hope you do an in-depth video visiting a commercial pig farm

I went to an autism workshop 18 years ago and while I was gone I lost 15 cows to nitrate poisoning so I've never left the ranch again. I have pretty good luck AI breeding heifers. We have cold winters and snow but not rain so our cows all live outside. Do the Dexters do ok being bred to regular sized bulls, as far as calving goes?

More videos please!!!

Very informative..

I'm just back from checking Nursery Paddock (nearest the house) before the sun sets. Our beefer ladies are due to start calving any day. Always nerve wracking times. Walked back via the sheep paddock and found a surprise. A new ram lamb!😍 I can't understand the current market preference for black hide cattle (whether they're Angus or not). Mine are a mix of Charolais, Limousin and Angus cross. My bull is a sweet, kind Angus boy

Smile for the cameras

Could you please do a all our pets video? Any tips for anyone who would like to become a farmer when they are older?

In my opinion, cattle is a 'not-quite-perfect' (8/10) as they are cute!

Great video! I like those black Dexter cows, some beautiful animals

Great

know what you mean have milked cows for 55 yrs and bred my own for 50 yrs. Even though i'm retired still keep a dozen on my mates farm all Dairy Shorthorns.. When I cant keep cows anymore I'd rather be dead .

Use rushes as bedding it is nearly the same and they are far cheaper

How many acres does the farm run

Me personally if I was close to you I would be helping you get straw it makes me sad that’s no other farmer help her out with a straw she such a loving person and seem very sweet well done your mum

Hiya Rufus did your mum have a Hereford bull? Thought rays heifors got in with him once

@FLANK I would like to ask you a question can you cross breed a red poll bull with a long legged dexter cow

Hello love the video and your farm but I didn't notice if you're animals get iodine ?

£15 for straw!! Tell me we’re you get it now!

continue to love the videos! Thanks for all the great, honest experience with cows in a cold, wet climate. I'm still very unimpressed by wintering in a barn- I know why, but if the climate does not support the animals- especially the numbers, then I think they should not be there, no matter how much we love them. Because we love them, we should not raise them in such conditions. This goes for horses too, and any other large livestock that puts stress on the landscape. We don't have to be doing this, and there are such better ways to manage the land in smaller, more sensitive ecosystems. But the human element (occupation, passion, etc) makes this a "complex" issue, and I myself have animals that are not easily folded into the ecosystem, mainly for the sake of filling a wild animal's role, which has been pushed out by development. -As example, goats taking the place of elk and deer for brush and forest management. Could your farm make such smart evolutionary changes and ultimately be more productive and especially more economic, as well as ecologically sound? Could you showcase any ecological conservation work you do on your farm? cheers!

In America when you buy beef you buy beef or black Angus or buffalo. Thats it. They don't sell beef by the different names of the different cows. It's like when you get a cat. You don't get a blue tip what ever you get a cat! In America, unless you really In to cats. Lol!

You "love cows" "wonderful creatures" "magnificent" .. they "produce milk for us to drink & should be drinking lots and lots of milk" (yeah.. to make you money! No it doesn't make us big and strong, it does the opposite, and it's meant for baby calves not humans) And you love them but then send them to slaughterhouses to be killed just so we can have a steak or burger for dinner? And years down the line then probably suffer from some sort of heart disease or cancer etc.. I'm slightly baffled.

I find it astounding and deeply disturbing how you can say you love them yet kill them in the same sentence. It makes it totally obvious that she loves, not because of the sensitive beings that they are, but because she sees them as a money making products. If she genuinely cares and loved them she would not be forcibly impregnating the cow to breed them into existence to then have their heads chopped off. It's even more staggering considering the environmental and health damage it causes and is absolutely unnecessary

Break your cow titty juice addiction guys and move on to plant milk. You won't have a choice one day!
