  • CLEAR THE ROADS! And the fields - Emily's driving! She's been practicing driving the truck and trailer more often to go pick up our Wagyu x Holstein calves from a local dairy farm and she's (slowly) getting better. Mason has been spending the spring spreading fertilizer on our fields with his airflow. He was spreading a trial field at Emily and Avery's house so Emily hopped in to take over the wheel. Does she hit a telephone pole??
    Equipment used:
    Rotator Challenger 1300b
    We are New Age Custom Farming - a custom farming operation located in south-central Wisconsin. Beyond our own acres, we work with our neighbors to care for the land through nutrient management, crop protection, custom harvesting and grain marketing. We also custom-raise heifers for a local dairy farm, and purchase their steers to raise for the market. See how the fifth generation operates and watch the sixth generation plant their roots. From field to fork, we want to be a trusted resource for modern farming. We are your farmer friends - and are here to answer any questions you have!
    Follow along as we bring you with us on our modern-day farming operation. From long days in the fields, working cattle, tractor pulling and having fun - you'll see it all!

    Emily sure does catch a lot of crap from the boys but thank goodness she dish it out as well.😊

    I would love to see the calf barn I like watching your videos I’m 66 years old and I sure wish I could be on a farm again. I don’t even care if I could work at one.

    How hard is it to get the calfs used to the robot feeder? Great job using the airflow!

      I'll make a video about this sometime soon, but we have to take them to the robot the first few times and then they learn!

    It would probably be a good idea to listen to him more cause you don’t seem to know how to handle calves very well.

      Hi Evan, thanks for your concern but I can handle the calves just fine by myself, especially considering they weigh as much, or more than me. Just because I have to put them in the trailer differently doesn’t mean I can’t handle them. Have a great day!!

      @@NewAgeCustomFarming well I’m a farmer. You dont handle calves like that. Flipping on their back. Rolling over like that can twist their stomach. Then getting them to get off the trailer without some kind of step or making it lower so they fall and smash their knees on the cement. I guarantee that doesn’t feel good also always adding new calves to a big pen like that is a great way to ad sickness to the rest of the calves. Babies very easily get stressed and get sick. You may get lucky and a bunch dont get sick. But I guarantee you it will happen someday and you will know why so many are sick. That one calf you were moving is definitely not feeling great as an example his stomach is all caved in he isn’t eating cause the calf isn’t feeling well. You shouldn’t see a big caved in gut .it’s also on tbe weaker side. You should put new calves in their own pen for at least a week10 days is best. till they get acclimated are eating properly and don’t spread sickness to the rest. Cause sickness can spread very easily to young calves in an enclosed setting. I feed 7000 head of cattle every winter ..we have 300 calving cows. Farm 6100 acres of grain and silage land. I’m not some city slicker talking out of my ass. But hey. You know it all so do nt listen to anyone. You definitely think you know how to work with calves. But you dont. instead of learning from others who know. Like. your husband

      @@EvanC8 Eric, I appreciate your concern for our cattle - and I agree there are things we can improve upon. Our farm isn’t perfect, and as a farmer I’m sure you understand that and there are things you would like to improve upon on your operation. I’m curious why you assume that I won’t listen to other people when it comes for the care of our cattle. I value continued education and work closely with various experts to consistently improve. What you saw in this clip is a very small snippet of our life and operation.
      Respectfully, I don’t understand your assumption that my boyfriend knows everything about about taking care of calves but I don’t. He was clearly with me for a majority of the time and the only time he had a suggestion for me was on how to pick up the calves. In no way does that suggest he has all the knowledge and I know nothing, nor that I won’t take advice from others.
      Thank you and have a good rest of your day.
