NOW WHAT DID THE FARMER BUY!?

  • Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
  • Kevin purchased a Meyer wagon from an online auction. Since it was a rainy day and not too much to do around the farm, Kevin and I travel just over 100 miles to Rosebush, Michigan to pick it up.
    The next day, even though it was still raining, the guys work to take the wagon off the running gear.

    In case you haven't had a chuckle today, I can tell you a little story. When I first found your channel, I only saw you and your daughter on the video. I thought you were sisters and I was curious to see what you were up to on the farm and how you worked together. I watched a few videos before I could even tell who was older. Finally figuring out it was mother and daughter! Meanwhile I've come to enjoy your family as you work on the dairy farm. I miss that work so enjoy seeing Kevin and the boys and what they're up to. I really enjoyed one video where I saw you all in church together. Answered right away why you have such a nice family!

With that many kids around you could teach them what to look for when a cow goes in heat and then you could breed them when they come through the parlor. I had a young bull get me down I didn't get hurt but if it would have been the big one that would not have turned out so good for me. I think at the time NOBA gave us the training for a very low cost. Thanks for your videos I'm subscribed and look forward to each one

    Is the bull gone yet? When they act like that they’re not fit to keep around. When I was in my early 20’s I had midnight milking one night and while moving up a group the bull that was in with them decided he’d had enough of me messing with his ladies. He caught me in a corner and proceeded to smash me with his head and front hooves. When I woke up it was 3 days later and I was at U of M. I was upset because I missed the helicopter flight! The bull took a lead Tylenol the morning of the accident.

    Oh sure R.... I saw someone cutting the wood but it wasn't R. Is that how you secretly get all "your" jobs done? And we all thought it was you that makes such a beautiful garden and all those preserves.
    I was thinking it was going to be real annoying having to work on a bunch of rusted bolts to get the box off but you basically just had to lift it. Who knew? (well, likely a lot of people)

      Oh no, you found out my secret! Lol😏
      Actually, anytime I start splitting wood, the guys start showing up wanting to show me how strong they are. Who can split the log with one hit. 🙄😂

      @@acresofclayhomestead Chopping wood is fun as long as you don't HAVE to do it and that challenge is automatic for every guy, and likely girl, on the planet.
