Very nice job , you guys work hard everyday to put milk in my glass to drink when watching you guys every night . Thanks really , love my chocolate milk
Great video. First time watcher here. Nice to see something other than the brand new 20 million dollar barns. Thousands of these family farms provide our milk and cheese and loads of great dairy products. Good job and keep it up.
Bryce, I do not know where to begin. Your channel was "suggested" by UA-cam - which says their algorithm is pushing you - because I like farming/ranching/dairy videos. I truly did not know there were any '50's style dairy farms left in America. I am so proud to see this operation has survived because it is exactly what made America Great. I liked and subscribed and will look forward to going back and seeing ALL of your work. I am impressed with your work effort
I suspect that the vast majority of dairy farmers in the USA still milk like this however the majority of cows do not get milked in this sort of barn as the 10 percent biggest farmers own 90 percent of the cows and the other 90 percent of farmers own 10 percent of the cows .
Blake Siegle (Student) I got it from dairy international a magazine we get over here in Europe, it surprised me so I looked it up on an American department of Ag website and it seems to be roughly correct, the other surprising thing (to me) was that the average American dairy farmer had only 112 animals in total, I couldn't ascertain whether that was milkers or both milkers and replacements , either way I would have thought that most American dairy farmers milked well in excess of 200 cows with many milking over 1000 , obviously this is not correct. I was looking up you tube to see if any of the more realistic videos of the American dairy industry and how they were doing as the majority of dairy farm videos I have come across are of very large operations with fantastic ultra modern facilities and large numbers of staff.
Blake Siegle (Student) no I don't know of any tie up barns still in use most were replaced back in the 60's and 70's there were still a few up to about 20 years ago but I don't think there are any still in use most of the 18000 dairy farmers in Ireland milk in herring bone parlours with some ( about 800 as far as I know) using robots and about 400 rotaries but our system is primarily grass based and cows graze grass c. 8 to 9 months of the year and we generally have about 80 to 120 cows per labour unit and our output of is only about half of the American output c. 5000kg of milk and 450 kg of milk solids. On average but we only feed about 800 kg of feed per head the rest is grass and grass silage. So our costs of production is considerably less. The average Irish dairy farmer milks c. 90 cows and is a one man show. The other major difference is that by comparison to America we have almost no machinery one or two tractors and a few implements .
Blake Siegle (Student) only a fraction of one percent of Irish cows do not get out to grass and it is wet in these islands but not so wet that we can't graze almost every day from February to November, we practice rotational grazing which means that the cows get an allotted amount of grass for 12 or 24 hours and will not be back on that section again for usually 21 days but that can vary a day or two depending on regrowth. We are the exception to the point as we are running a housed herd due to available grazing land and we bring the grass to the cows twice daily for about 300 days a year we are very much the exception to the rule and I only know of two other herds in the country who do this our cows are housed in a free stall shed and produce considerably more than the average grazed cows , we also feed considerably more meal .
Blake Siegle (Student) oh we make grass silage aiming at 14 to 15 percent protein, dmd of better than 80 percent and dry matter of about 30 percent, many dairy farmers make some really good grass silage and some poorer quality stuff as they seasonal calve to expected grass growth and for the most part their cows are dry for the winter. Grass hay is made by some farmers but rarely by dairy farmers as it is a bit hit and miss due to our climate.
Very well put together video man! You have a great attitude and solid work ethic. Thanks for sharing what you do. More people need to be educated as to how they get the milk they drink. Aint an easy task, especially during the winter!
I never watched you before . You explain thoroughly like Sask Dutch Boy, you dress like Chet from Larsons and you have a knack for good camera placement. So I subscribed . I like the big beams in your barn. All you see anymore is pipes and concrete. You are also nice to your animals. Good video, looking forward to more. Peace.
Bryce, I am VERY IMPRESSED by your attention to detail, your speed and thoroughness when cleaning everything in the milking process from prepng the cows to cleaning all the equipment after finished. It clearly makes me rea;ize why the milk we drink all across America is the finest milk in the world!! THANK YOU, Bryce!!!
You mentioned “the boss”. I truly hope you have a farm of your own in the near future. You’re knowledgeable, conscientious and an all-around “good man”. This is my first time watching this video segment and you’ve certainly impressed me. All the best!
Bryce - UA-cam suggested your channel and here I am. Thanks for your information and the explanations of what you’re doing and how you farm. I subscribed and asked for notifications, so l’ll be back. Good video!
So glad to see you post a video......know you stay busy and thank you for taking the time and effort it takes to post this.....congratulations on the new members of your "family".....you are such a fine young man Bryce and it is my sincere hope that more of today's youth with your work ethic and goodness are out there, you are an inspiration....God bless you and keep up the good work.
Your cow's are happy and healthy, really nice to see! Good luck with your UA-cam channel! I watch Cole the Cornstar I think that's why I'm here LOL. I'll sub I guess.
Bryce, really enjoy your videos. Yor vlog came across youtube suggested site, really glad it did. I have been trying to catch up, keep up the great videos.
just found your channel. its great to see young people in the diary business. its hard work and my family and I want to thank you for the hard work you put in to provide everyone with milk. be safe and see ya on the next 1
Hey just found your website awhile back I love them, it brings back memories of me growing up on a farm in Ohio I really miss farming keep up the great content and good friends
Reminds me of when I was on a farm while growing up. We didn't have all the new stuff that is in use today, but the basics are the same. Clean the teats, hook up the milkers, which were individual cans for each cow, dumped the milk into a larger can place in a chiller overnight, do the same in the AM, then deliver the milk to the creamery in town. They did all the testing and you got paid for the butterfat content and the poundage at the end of the month. Glad to see a young man interested in farming. Good luck in the future.
Binge watched all your videos this rainy Sunday, Love your content and the friendships you have created over the years and letting us enjoy the fun you have together just getting work done.
I’m always happy when you post a new video and I understand how busy things get on a farm, no apologies needed for me. Stay safe and stay awesome 😎 /✌️ ♥️ & 🙏’s
Hi Bryce! Good to see you and a new video! Thanks for all your hard work putting the videos together for us to watch, I love every one of them! You're such a hard worker, there is so much into doing dairy. It's got to be exciting for you to be raising your own heard of cows, I love the young ones!! I look forward to your next video, no matter the content. Stay safe and healthy Bryce!
Grew up on a farm near Mankato. Dad could not make it work any more and we moved to South Florida. Been many years since I have been back on a farm. Enjoy watching your vids.
Great videos. Am enjoying your channel that I stumbled on to. Very different from milking cows in New Zealand now, but that is how it used to be. Keep up the good work.
How about doing a Q&A? Here are some questions you might consider, since you mentioned that you didn't have enough questions. -How old were you or when did you decide you wanted to become a dairy farmer? -How did you acquire all the knowledge about farming and machinery? Who taught you the most? -How many Ag courses have you taken in H.S.? -How did you get interested in making videos for your own youtube channel? -Do you get any H.S.or college credit for the videos you make? You really should. -You're a very intelligent guy and have great communication skills in English. Are you planning to go to college (or community college) to study Ag or finance like Cole the Cornstar? I'm not sure what Cole Sonne studied at SD State; Eric of Tenth Generation did not go to college, but he said if he did, he would get an MBA. Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison has a short course for young farmers you might consider. -How did you acquire the incredible work ethic that you have? Obviously your parents and grandparents are largely responsible, but were there others? -Your video and editing skills have improved immensely, and I love your sunrises and sunsets. Do you select all the music yourself? Good luck on a great adventure.
I love watching you do your jobs milking I loved milking the cows. I had four brothers and a sister. The either wouldn't go near them or if they did it was only for the quiet ones . I used to spray th down with water in hot weather it was something I loved doing. Occassionly I would get a kicker,a switcher, it figitty cow. They would be fun to get the cups on once on the usually wasn't any more trouble unless they were new heifers. I tried to get around that by getting them used to the pre milking prepping proccess . That helped alot except if they were cranky or had sore teats.
I am happy you have 2 more heifer to put with your 2 cows 🐄 you are a senior in high this year right if you are stay safe and keep doing your videos ok just keep fighting on cell count when i left farming we we were at 85,000 to 100,000 but it took 2 year's to get their good luck
BTW Congrats on passing the 1k mark on subscribers!!!!! Only 999,999 more to go until you have the viewership you deserve for all the work you put in!✅✅
I am Very excited!!!!!! My channel is growing very fast after my last video and it’s all thanks to people like you that enjoy watching what I put out for you! I hope you enjoy the videos to come!
Nice video, please keep posting. Hope you can have your own herd soon and be independent. If you haven’t named your calf yet here is recommendation “Half”
Thanks for sharing your work routine. So many different operations to complete during your work day. What type bull or ai did you use on you two cows ?🐄🐂
LOVE it. This is how I milked 35 plus years ago. Small herd. Station type barn set up. Great job Byice. How many cows are in the herd? It’s so good to see young people like yourself that want to get into dairy farming. This video really takes me back 😊👍🏻🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄.
Awesome to see that the inside gets washed too!!! That’s probably more important than washing the outside? Is it just water or is there soap or iodine in the water?? Your channel popped up in my “recommended for you” feed!!! And wow you have a physically hard job and way more parts to it than I even thought there was!! Thank you for sharing!!! I think I will subscribe and see how you come along!! I bet you are tired at the end of a day!!
greatings from Holland,nice to see,we have here not so many milking rooms like this but only very big rooms,and tippical for dutch farmers is that te working only with boots and not with shoes ! how many cows do you have at thij moment on the milk?
Great video Bryce. Really enjoyed it. Congrats on 35k views. you must be doing something right. What do you like most and least about working on a dairy farm?
My favorite thing about dairy farming is that your always on your toes, there is never a “normal” day, there is always something new. And also just taking pride in calling my self a dairy farmer. I don’t have anything I dislike about being a dairy farmer, you just have some bad days once in a while.
The somatic cell count is the number of white blood cells in the milk. An average count is 100,000-150,000. This is totally normal in cows. Cows with higher SCC tends to be an indication that she is fighting off an illness of some kind. But you also don't want a cow with too low of a SCC, because then she could react slower to an illness.
What is the current somatic cell count at ? , this is a very old fashioned milking system , in Ireland where I am almost all milking is done in swing over parlours or rotary parlours they are much quicker and cleaner for the operator
thanks for sharing this video
Very nice job , you guys work hard everyday to put milk in my glass to drink when watching you guys every night . Thanks really , love my chocolate milk

Great videos. What a strong work ethic you have. Don't ever loose that. What are your plans after high school??

Great video, nice to see another MN dairy. Have you noticed any chance in SCC after changing udder prep?
Never seen a milk stool that attaches to the person before. Neat. I bet it saves a lot of wear on your knees

“Half”
Haha that’s a awesome name I’ve got a few in mind right now but its definitely a possibility
I want you to know I already know everything there is to know about milking cows from UA-cam...but you look interesting so ill give it a try.
Like watching your milking videos 👍
Thanks for watching!
Lol cole the cornstarch would have a heart attack if he had to drive that dirty tractor with torn seats
Thanks for sharing your work routine. So many different operations to complete during your work day. What type bull or ai did you use on you two cows ?🐄🐂
I’m a new subscriber and I love your channel! Keep up the good work
Welcome to the channel and I hope you enjoy the videos to come!
I literally binge watched all your videos! Looking forward to more. I love seeing all the Ford products. Very cool!
First viral video I see. Good luck young buck. Ditch the Pit Vipers. Lol.
I suggest you get a pair they are a chick magnet.
Loved Red Holsteins when I had a dairy
You should do a tractor tour
This is how my family farm was growing up, now its all profits
10 years beef 4-Her now 43 retired
Seems like you have some very gentle cows. You must treat them well.
Yes we treat the cows well and I think they live better then most people in my opinion.
New to the channel grew up on a dairy farm. Our farm was north of St Cloud where are you located?
Near Rochester
Bryce’s Ag Adventures looks like a lovely farm. Nice flat land good hay.
Interesting video I like your seat
G'day great video mate
LOVE it. This is how I milked 35 plus years ago. Small herd. Station type barn set up. Great job Byice. How many cows are in the herd? It’s so good to see young people like yourself that want to get into dairy farming. This video really takes me back 😊👍🏻🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄🐄.
about 65 cows at the moment
Awesome to see that the inside gets washed too!!! That’s probably more important than washing the outside? Is it just water or is there soap or iodine in the water?? Your channel popped up in my “recommended for you” feed!!! And wow you have a physically hard job and way more parts to it than I even thought there was!! Thank you for sharing!!! I think I will subscribe and see how you come along!! I bet you are tired at the end of a day!!
When the milkers and pipe line are washed acid, detergent and hot water is ran though to clean and sanitize everything
Hi from near Rochester Australia. I’m a dairy farmer
greatings from Holland,nice to see,we have here not so many milking rooms like this but only very big rooms,and tippical for dutch farmers is that te working only with boots and not with shoes ! how many cows do you have at thij moment on the milk?
65
good job !
I like your videos. What part of Minnesota are you in? I too farm in the Great state of Minnesota
Near Rochester Minnesota
My son works at tractor supply in Rochester. He milked for the Dairy Center in Calmar and Schmitt Dairy in Fort Atkinson before moving to Minnesota
My uncle farmed near Goodhue.
Where about a in Minnesota are you? That’s old school milking , glad to see there still a few small dairies left
Near Rochester Minnesota
Samuel Salas yes, it’s not to far from where I’m at
Samuel Salas sweet!
Great job
Linda Danielson agreed
Good job I'm a new sub
Looking forward to the Q&A with Aiden, Mitchell and yourself.
Are you related to either of them?
Who do you work for?
No I am not related to them, I work for a dairy farmer.
glad to see you back again , . how many cows are you milking there then ?
Milking about 65 cows at the moment
Great video Bryce. Really enjoyed it. Congrats on 35k views. you must be doing something right. What do you like most and

I don’t have anything I dislike about being a dairy farmer, you just have some bad days once in a while.
i love your videos make more milking videos
You still going to start your own herd? Wish you best
Now just imagine some guys used to milk the whole barn with that bucket system before pipelines. How many cows do you milk there at that farm?
Milking about 65 cows at then moment

Thank you!
Hey, looks like a hard job. How many hours do you work every day? Guess that helps to you so lean.
It all depends on the day and if I have school or not, but for example I worked a 15 hour day last Sunday working both shifts.
Are you the only milker? And are you milking twice a day?
I am one of 3 employees and we all have our own shifts for milking, we milk twice a day
What is the current somatic cell count at ? , this is a very old fashioned milking system , in Ireland where I am almost all milking is done in swing over parlours or rotary parlours they are much quicker and cleaner for the operator
Not sure the current Somatic cell count, and I know we milk a different way then others but it works for us.
You live on the farm? Or are you an employee?
Name her Beans
Nice video I milk in double 8 herringbone mysel
