    Adrian, your cinematic grasp of video creation is top-notch! You use multiple cameras for some tasks, and edit the views like a professional film director. For example, the drilling of the hole in the calving pen back wall, for chain attachment. I do notice and appreciate the thought, effort and time that you exert in making these videos for us. THANKS! From Evelyn in Minnesota

    This is a good and cheerful video. Just what we need. Whilst my area is unaffected and life goes on normally, just a few hundred kilometres north of me, the people of Noto are still struggling in the aftermath of the New Year's Day earthquake. So 'Hope' was a good choice of name for their sake as much as it is for you and your farm. Good choice Adrian.

    Adrian, i have a dairy cow question? If a cow has mastitis, but it only effects one teat, or two does that render the whole udder no good? Or can she still have functioning teats that will produce milk still? I figured since a cow has 4 teats and two are damaged can the others still function ok? I don't know too much about dairy cows or cattle in general, just wondering??

    • @scootytamra

    Idea for your latch pin on your sagging door is bevel the end. Just enough so its starts in the hole. Love hearing you mention -4 degrees kinda warm in my books. -44 hear in northern Alberta. Add in the windchill becomes -51. Not a farmer, machine guy, but like the idea of the calf coat/cover. Be careful on the ice Sir. No rushing about.

    Hi Adrian, another great video. You seem to be VERY accurate at predicting calving. It would be great if you could do an in depth video of what you see and feel when you know they're going to calve within 48/24/ 12 hours. I have a very small herd of beef shorthorns and tend to be thinking for days if not weeks they're about to pop. It would be very interesting. Thanks from Fermanagh!
