@@Spjkbz D S2 you're right! There is no point in showing these intelligent animals kindness and respect during their years of service prior to becoming a further part of the circle of life.

After all they're gonna end up being slaughtered anyways.

@@Spjkbz nobody said anything about "idealizing" the cows. Showing a little kindness and consideration for another living thing, even if it is just a "cow"....never hurts and frankly, it's a credit to the kid...and his dad who raise him and taught him......that he does. Nice work SDK
Virginia Moss, this is to allow the cows to be less stressed for the two months before they have their calves. A lot of stress on a cow that close to having her calf can sometimes cause the cow to lose the calf also (which is a very sad day if it happens).
@@nicholasdowns3502 - Since he said they were "drying off" the cow, I assumed she was lactating, being milked. How can she be pregnant and be lactating at the same time? What is the "vacation" a break from?
What a life-- no grass to walk on or graze, no hours of soaking in the sunshine, no just wandering arnd. Day on day end serve human needs & be moved around in closed barns on concrete floors. What these cows need & what they will get is totally human dependent
I work on a dairy farm in New Brunswick and Its super cool to see the different routines, equipment on other dairy farms!! I love watching videos of other farms and seeing the difference between other farms! Dairy farming was my first job and I've been doing it for almost 3 years and absolutely love it! At the farm I work on we have a 32 stall rotary parlor and milk about 450 cows 3 times a day! Seeing your milking parlor and routine is awesome seeing the different equipment is amazing to watch. It's cool seeing how all dairy farms operate differently!🙂
I really like the way you think about the little things such as where a neck rail is placed. the "girls" comfort is a priority !It shows in how good your herd looks.
Hey Jan! I wasn't taken by surprise this time you said, "we're drying them off". Wow! I'm learning so much. Love watching your videos. Haven't kept up with the affect of COVID-19 in Canada lately. But I hope and pray you all are not experiencing too much set-back in productivity. Spring is coming!! Blessings to you great farmers.
all way find a joker in the crowd think they are a clown lol still are floor milking there too we are here to one of the barns we had to put a fence up to keep people away from barns we have sign's up all the fence say sorry health reason's we can not sell the raw milk to the public but they still try to we did have the dairy board came out here for a couple days and given a warning ticket to the people and 30 have been charged with coming to other dairies live to close to a city and a town you get this
You have done it agaiin! Another hit show. I have a white vehicle and the powerwasher is great for cleanup and I don't have as much mud here. Thanks and be safe. Regards to your family.
Just by the way you swing those gates and move those cos sats a lot about how well you treat your ladies. Thanx tons for caring. Please stay safe and may God Bless.
Been watching you on my TV instead of my desktop and I can't comment or "like" your videos but rest assured I am keeping up with you and your experiences on the farm. Keep up the good work and great videos.
Just wandering what its like to have a vacation???? Awesome the cows know lol....🚜 it amazes me how well all the equipment is taken care of...good job.
I bet your parents are very proud of you and your sister. You are very hard working kids. Very impressed with your work ethic and knowledge of your farm.
I think you need a concrete wash rack where you wash your trucks and equipment, with a drainage system of course. Would be a whole lot less of a mud hole.
Hey DK how about showing us what you like to do on your time off and that's a nice looking truck you have and as always you are taking care of your girls so what's next for DK keep up the good work and see you in the next video 🤔🐄☺😉
Awesome vids man try and keep uploading as much as possible I know that it is hard sometimes when you get swamped with work around the farm I’m also a dairy farmer so I know that it is hard work and a lot of work
I can’t believe I’m still watching cow videos and I’m fascinated. Was wondering do the cows always do things at their own pace ? They always move so slowly and what does the neck rail actually do ?
When the cow stands up in her stall her neck touches the neck rail which causes her to move back a step or two, which in turn causes her manure to fall into the manure alley rather than on her bed.
LUV your channel! Your filming is amazing and the editing that goes into your videos!!!! WOW! I am a small starting canadian creator and I just love watching your channel! so much inspo!
You are an excellent example of personal initiative and professionalism. Have you ever thought about having summer training for young people interested in farming? It would be great if you passed along your knowledge to people who have no idea what farming entails. You would be doing the next generation a great favor. Think about it. Summer Training Program via on the job training and some reading re vaccines, environment, etc.
Great video, as always. I really wish that you would do a video on open pasture farming vs. keeping the cows inside all the time. I notice that you and 10th Generation Dairyman keep your cows inside while Tom Pemberton Farm Life allow his cows access to the pasture. Is it just a question about not having enough land to allow your cows to graze or them being easier to manage? You and 10th Generation Dairyman are the first dairy farmers that I have become familiar with besides my uncle. He didn't have a large barn and only brought them inside for milking. I would really like to get your take on the topic.
Teat & Meat-- that's all the worth of these animals. The highly commercial quick churn farming of today makes sunshine, open pastures an unneeded luxury for cows & cumbersome for humans in terms of space, time & labour
It’s just a management preference mostly and wether or not you got adequate number of acres to graze. I milk cows in a stanchion barn and they go out to pasture when not getting milked and if it’s raining they come in really muddy so there are times when it pays to keep them in
not sure if you do, but when I was your age we would milk our cows only once a day for a week prior to making them " go dry " . It really helped them dry up, a lot less problems too
Hey. Still good work. Always small details but that takes time. A question how many slopes are there in the waiting area for cows for good water flow? Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Switzerland. François.
We used to milk 18 cows twice a day by hand. I was not that good but my mom was like a machine. This was before quotas. We were from Hilversum. Stay safe and healthy and warm.
All I can say kid is you have a lovey farm is your father still with you I think is the one that started this or maybe even your grandfather how old is this farm I love this shit lol get it shit lol
Surprised to see you using the handbrake on flat ground in the shed Jan. I learnt from farming family never to use the handbrake, thought it might be a universal thing. Another good video, thanks. Often wonder how the steel in the parlors handles being wet constantly, or is it all stainless?
Are you selling extra milk to pig farmers to add to their slop? Are there individual meat processors that can continue to process meat till meat plants are back up?
I thought Canada was on the metric system. I often hear you using Imperial measurements in this and other videos. Are you doing that for an audience that may be predominantly US based?
3 questions if I may, When drying off the ladies outside, in that weather do they go inside at night? If not do they have trouble coping with the change from their shed protection. At any stage are the milkers ever outside to graze? Am only new to your chanel, love what you do and envious, so envious of lifestyle! G (australia)
I like the way you refer to the currently milking cows as “ladies” and the heifers as “girls”. It shows respect for the product they are providing.

Yes I’m sure the cows really appreciate being called a lady and makes it ok to stick a knife in them with their permission. They love it.
love the truck
i love the way you give the cows a vacation and the way you take such good care of the ladies!
Thanks!
@@saskdutchkid - Why do you shut them down for two months?

I love how clean the cows are (and the barns) compared to many farms.
From Toronto, Canada: There seem to be a lot of time consuming tasks to do on the farm. You are a very considerate and compassionate animal owner.
Gosh your cows are so gentle in milking parlor they didn’t flinch when treating them for dry cow time.. job well done.
Little tip for ya. When starting big Trucks, push the clutch it saves a ton of wear on the starter.

It is amazing how cooperative the ladies are. You sure take great care of them. Thanks for the video. Jan The Man.
Always amazed at how far away those drones can fly, and their camera quality
“Dry them off”. You must have some very large towels!
Hehe
Nice one hahahahahaha
good one
is that DRY HUMOUR??
all way find a joker in the crowd think they are a clown lol
still are floor milking there too we are here to one of the barns we had to put a fence up to keep people away from barns we have sign's up all the fence say sorry health reason's we can not sell the raw milk to the public but they still try to we did have the dairy board came out here for a couple days and given a warning ticket to the people and 30 have been charged with coming to other dairies
live to close to a city and a town you get this
Another great video. THanks for sharing. From the retired Pastor in Davenport, Iowa.
Your operation makes us proud to be Canadians. Stay safe. Cheers 😁😁🇨🇦🇨🇦

Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing Jan. Blessings!
Kid you are one of the best farmers I have ever seen. You do good for your cows! 👍
I can not BELIEVE how much equipment you’ve got ! The maintenance must overwhelming ! Boredom is not a word in your vocabulary !
Been watching you on my TV instead of my desktop and I can't comment or "like" your videos but rest assured I am keeping up with you and your experiences on the farm. Keep up the good work and great videos.
Another nice video Jan. Happy guy with happy cows. Nice lookin' truck too! Thank you so much.
There is no way that truck will make it to the highway clean. These are great videos, just good honest hard working farmers earning their living.
Nice to see how much go’s into milk on our table. Real interesting. Even to see the piping setup for the pressure washer.
Love watching your vids. Hope things go back to normal soon. Stay safe❤
This is such a smart parlour! And your lovely cows are so clean! I'm trying to convince farmers the benefits of a body brush!!
I wish we had one! Cows love scratching 😂
You're amazing, working
Thanks for taking the time, great show...keep on keeping on!
Just wandering what its like to have a vacation???? Awesome the cows know lol....🚜 it amazes me how well all the equipment is taken care of...good job.
This video made me smile thank you for that.
"There's 13 cows here"
Me: Counting the cows as he walks by😂
I bet your parents are very proud of you and your sister. You are very hard working kids. Very impressed with your work ethic and knowledge of your farm.
Haha maybe! What else are you gonna do with your time! May as well work!
Jan, you are amazing!
Another great video! Thanks for sharing what you do and continuing to work hard despite what's going on in the World around you.
Thanks! Cows always gotta be milked!
Chrome socket on a impact, what a bad boy
In a few years when you'll hit de one million suscribers, we will need to say: Jan, the man, the myth, the legend. Kudos my friend
Hahahahaha sounds good to me! 😂
Wow your are a amazing young man. Real hard working man. Well done!!
13:00 Not quite the detail geek treatment, but much better!
Thanks for the video. I learn so much.
Glad ya learned something!!!
That reminds me I have to pick up a gallon of milk today. ;-)
Awesome! 💪🏻💪🏻
Hey Jan! Thanks for posting the video!
Nice truck!
Wow you drive that thing well. I would miss that spot every time.
I think you need a concrete wash rack where you wash your trucks and equipment, with a drainage system of course. Would be a whole lot less of a mud hole.
Must be getting warmer all that mud you have to contend with.
Hey DK how about showing us what you like to do on your time off and that's a nice looking truck you have and as always you are taking care of your girls so what's next for DK keep up the good work and see you in the next video 🤔🐄☺😉
Mail seems slow in Canada same as in US, still wearing those worn out pants 🙊
Glad to see you drive a Ford.
great video it was super, your a good teacher learned a lot today, thanks
Great video and a nice truck too !
Love your product placement hope it gets you sponsored
I’m in the wrong biz, DJI Mavic 2 is expensive but greatest drone out there now. Milk a does a wallet good.
Awesome vids man try and keep uploading as much as possible I know that it is hard sometimes when you get swamped with work around the farm I’m also a dairy farmer so I know that it is hard work and a lot of work
I can’t believe I’m still watching cow videos and I’m fascinated. Was wondering do the cows always do things at their own pace ? They always move so slowly and what does the neck rail actually do ?
Had that same exact question ;D
So that don’t walk all the way in the stall and shit in there bed
When the cow stands up in her stall her neck touches the neck rail which causes her to move back a step or two, which in turn causes her manure to fall into the manure alley rather than on her bed.
k c thanks for that. Not sure I want to know now 😃
Enjoy watching your videos create more video 💞💖
You say ladie# are they your ladies very beautiful lol
LUV your channel! Your filming is amazing and the editing that goes into your videos!!!! WOW! I am a small starting canadian creator and I just love watching your channel! so much inspo!
I know nothing about farming, it looks very intresting. Thanks for teaching me
Thanks for watching and glad ya learned something!
SaskDutch Kid my pleasure, hope everything’s going well for you!
you never hesitate to get your hands dirty...very few times seen you wearing gloves ...cheers
I really like the way u treat the cow and the way u work u r such a professional farmer 💪🏻👍
I love to drink raw milk. I know, it's irrelevant, but my grandma back home used to have goats. I loved it!
You still have a lot of snow. It gets better. We are almost in the fields down here in Minnenowhere.
That pressure washer would strip the paint off of my vehicle 😃

I would really like to get your take on the topic.
I think he keeps the cows inside because the winters can be so hard that the grass in the pasture will die
It is also very difficult to collect te cows 2 for milking because that much cows need a lot of acres
Teat & Meat-- that's all the worth of these animals. The highly commercial quick churn farming of today makes sunshine, open pastures an unneeded luxury for cows & cumbersome for humans in terms of space, time & labour
Weather has nothing to do with it. Why don't we let Jan answer the question instead of you all answering it for him.
It’s just a management preference mostly and wether or not you got adequate number of acres to graze. I milk cows in a stanchion barn and they go out to pasture when not getting milked and if it’s raining they come in really muddy so there are times when it pays to keep them in
1:58 that cow had a lot of crap coming out
right? just eruption of poo lol
nathan abbott and kept walking
I see... Checking a cow out
Jeremy van Raalte no I heard the splatter and then saw the cow taking a fat crap in the back
@@jerry2422 it was like watching a train wreck at the county fair... you couldn't help but look for what was making that noise...
Funny, Jan sits back and watch the tractor, auger, and truck do the job.
The question is: Did Jan have a glass of milk while watching?
You are an amazing cow farmer. The cows are happy and your barn is so clean. I'd drink milk from your cows(I'm basically vegan)
not sure if you do, but when I was your age we would milk our cows only once a day for a week prior to making them " go dry " . It really helped them dry up, a lot less problems too
That is sooo cool!!
I like you young man , I just subscribed 👩🏻🌾 .
Great awesome video, nice camera work
another great video young man
Traducir en español, gracias😁
Hey Jan, was wondering how do you stop a cow from producing milk in their vacation period?
WE LIKE YOUR VIDEOS WE WANT MORE
100% TOP as always 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Do you ever Wash/bathe your cows? Would love to see a video of that.
Hey. Still good work. Always small details but that takes time. A question how many slopes are there in the waiting area for cows for good water flow? Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Switzerland. François.
Dutchy, do you have the cows hooves trimmed?
Yes, he does. There are some videos with their hooves being trimmed .
Could you talk more about what teat block is and what, if any, side effects it has?
Nice ingo. Plz keep it up. Wr learn alot from your videos. Nice.
6 1/2" stick or whatever work good when you have a lot to do.
Great job Mike I hope you get to finish. Praying you don’t have shingles ugh☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
I reckoned you would be a Ford guy!
Why don’t you do a video showing you family. Would be nice too see them.
The Internet's full of weird people Ken....
Stay anonymous!
We used to milk 18 cows twice a day by hand. I was not that good but my mom was like a machine. This was before quotas. We were from Hilversum. Stay safe and healthy and warm.
Nice truck... but a white truck and mud? Next time you need to make a different color choice. LOL.
Very nice and clean facility you have. How long do you milk your cows before you dry them off?
All I can say kid is you have a lovey farm is your father still with you I think is the one that started this or maybe even your grandfather how old is this farm I love this shit lol get it shit lol
Next video I want you to clean the bobcat🤣
1:54 is me after drinking a detox
Look at the cow behind his shoulder 😳

It’s all stainless!
Hey, I wanted to check if you use the DelPro Companion App to do the tasks of dry off data capturing? (Amongst other work tasks with the cows)
Are you selling extra milk to pig farmers to add to their slop? Are there individual meat processors that can continue to process meat till meat plants are back up?
