New subscriber farmer from Kansas. When we milked we feed outta Dotson concrete silos like yours with a bunch trip feeding system like that. Brings back memories awesome.
Great channel love your operation we do hay and cattle and custom work but I have always liked the dairy outfits we had them at one time but it was before my time
I applaud you for continuing to be a dairyman. Tough life and under appreciated by the current fake almond milk(juice), coconut milk( juice) crowd. I use only dairy products. We support our US agriculture.
I hope you saving up your U-tube money for a new drive threw, lol. I see them old mangers and think omg the back breaking clean out. Brings back nightmares as a child cleaning them out once a day all bent over as to not scalp ya.
Kip how do you manage the ration? As compared to the measurements when using a TMR? As always you bring positivity with your demeanor and are a joy to follow. Thanks!
Basically feed them free choice, I put mineral in through a gandy over a conveyor. I make them clean the bunks up and monitor there manure. It’s a challenge on hot days. Appreciate the compliments!
Happy Holstein herd. Love cows and kips videos

Kansas excellent 👍 it’s some maintenance but when working I can feed in 30 minutes and get back in for thanksgiving dinner if need be 👍
Hello I’ve just joined your site you’ve got a great way of feeding your cows and your cows are in good shape thanks for sharing 👍👍👍🇬🇧
Great videos kip
Another great video... "Lets Go !"... I like that.
Neat conveyor belt and mixing system. I'm sure with all the moving parts it is a a lot of work to maintain.
That sure beats starting a tractor especially in winter!! I suspect you have to hand clean those bunks occasionally!!!
Looks like a simple system but I can imagine it would break your heart when it goes wrong
Exactly right you’ve really got to know the equipment and pay attention 👍
FARMER PHIL I will help you milk your cows

What's the average feed intake per day and milk yield of this ration?
How much does a good cow cost in your
area? Just wondering.
Do you usually retire a cow after shes given you between 5 to 7 calves ???
How come don't let conveyors empty out? Wear n tare ?
I usually will once winter hits
How many bulls do you have to service all these cows. Do you artificial breed.
I have a feed truck we drive the feed truck along the feeding Trough
Yes that works 👍
