    I always wondered how farms were run just from curiosity and I have to say you do a great job showing everything it takes to get milk from farm to table. Also can't believe how much you know about so much. It's like you're a landscaper, farmer, mechanic, heavy equipment operator and vet tech all in one person!

    I bet the cows start leaking milk as soon as they hear your voice 🐮 a least most of them 😂 I really like these video’s where you explaining everything as you go! We never have had milk cows only everything else 😂 we had beef cows, pigs, chickens, turkeys, ducks, goats and almost every farm animal you can think of! Dairy farming has always interested me, especially farms like yours and Jan’s, you two have restored my faith in dairy’s you both run your Dairy’s the way I think everyone should! I love making my own butter ever since I found a local dairy to supply my milk,cream. Now I want to make my own cheese.

    I imagine the cows like some semblance of organization in the barn too. The stalls give that. I never experienced premilk with our cows. Maybe they were not heavey milkers. Four cows need bred and you come out with a coolant tester. The audience goes "what?" Good video 10GD. Peace.

    A helpful tip to save wear and tear on the defacer. Deface the bottom 3-4 ft of the bunk first then deface the top part. That way your defacer isn’t buried into the fresh pile of silage as you work your way down the face. Keep up the videos I enjoy them

    Hi! Love your videos. I am a senior animal sciences student at the University of Missouri and am currently in a dairy production class. I have a question about feeding. Why don't you keep feed at the bunks at all times? I've read that the bunks should always have feed available to keep the cows eating at all times and producing the most possible. Is this an economic decision that you have found benefits your farm in particular or is there another reason? I love your channel and being able to compare the university's farm decisions to what you do. They milk almost exactly the same number of cows you do so it's really a great resource for me!
