Thanks for keeping Number 13 and her calf. Sounds like a great solution (especially since you explained the different feed types for the animal in the different stages of life!) We love a happy ending and look forward to updates, even if it's just to say they're doing well! 💜🌞🌵😷

The momma cows seemed to be kicking up their heels, "no more kids". Loved watching.

Farmer Tyler, Love how you talk to your cows. If i was a cow, i would want to live on your ranch. Tossing down hay brings back many memories of tosding down hay and straw from the hay mow . Take care Mr., Mrs. And Baby FTR.

One man band well done so very hard to do thanks for sharing buddy

You have a calming and humane approach to farming, thank you.

I am thinking it would be a good thing to film the fence line and the racket they make. I am certain there are many folks who have no clue what you are talking about. Personally, I like this style of weaning as well. Plus, if you have a determined calf and mom they will work out a way to nurse. 🤣

Some of those cows look downright happy to be “free”

Good Morning Tyley Thanks for keeping baby & mother together. It really amaze me you do a wonderful job working by yourself. Yes that hay look like it going to fall. Please be careful. Thanks for sharing. Have a blessed day.

Grew up on dairy farm calves only spent first 24 hours with mom to get colostrum. They did get their moms milk for first few days. Glad you explain why you do what you do. It helps those who don’t understand why you do it.

You're the best separator of cattle I've ever seen.....I can herd them all...lucky for me it's a small herd...everyone is just going thru the squeeze chute to be separated there for loading...even if we have to back the truck up...in and out...it's still a brute force method of mechanical separation.

Good job successfully weaning the calves. Brings back memories when I was younger growing up on the farm. Your explanations for each process helps those that have never experienced the challenges of this process or those who don't understand why it's done. You have a good looking set of calves to fatten up for market.

I also wanted to add rewatching this. That's gotta be a drag going through certain gates to get to one place

With cattle, patience pays off. At least you won’t have to listen to all the bawling that is getting ready to happen!!! LOL.

Best wishes for that little calf to have the strength to feed and thrive. I feel for that poor Mama who aborted her calf. I know your operation is a business, but I also believe you always have the best interest of the animal in mind. Thank you for bringing us along.

Your corral system is working and looking great!

You do one heck of a job for a one-man operation. I know farmers that couldn't have sorted those cows/calves with three men working at it. I like the way you take care of your stock. Good video.

Thanks for the video. Please can you describe the whip you use. It is hard to see in your video. Did you buy it? Make, model?

Maybe you could put something on the top of a few of those wooden fence posts that would hold the camera. That way it wouldn't be near the legs of the cattle. You could put them at strategic spots around the corral and be able to just move the camera as needed

The bars are there so they can’t jump through and they are at an angle because it discourages them from pulling hay out on the ground. The angle I use is 30 degrees, seems to work!

Chunky calves Tyler. Nice..

Is there a video that talks about the cow with 6 udders that nearly backed over the camera? It was a “wait, what?” moment. Is that something that happens often with cows?

Hi from Namibia. We have a device here called a "neusring", directly translates to nose-ring that fits to the nose of the calf to be weaned. As the calf tries to suckle, the spikes on the nose-ring irritate the soft under parts of the cow and she moves away. This discourages the calf from suckling, but the cow is still there, her comforting presence reducing the weaning stress on both the calf and the mother. Hit me up buddy.

My grandpa always said it was better to immediately trailer the calves completely across town in a pasture away from major roads and highways. They make the transition faster then the mothers.

What is your advice on weaning a five month old calf? We want it to be young enough for my son to work with her for his 4-H project.

That baby is so small compared to how big all the other cows are. I know it’s bc she is new but you should name her. What do you think FTR?

Feed them Quality liquid feed. I would suggest Ruma-Lic it’s by far the best on the market.

Curious as to why you wait until 8.5 months to wean, we typically wean between 4-5 months so that March/April calves can be sold late October/ early November. I’d rather not pay to feed them through the winter. Climate differences maybe (Texas) or different end goals for your calves?

@farmertylerranch4399

3 жыл бұрын
