Great job as always many thanks for sharing your experience and all the best to you all as always
Love the FTR T-shirt
Last episode dusty was destined for the stew pot... you mean to tell me it was just coincidence that his feet got tied up😂
He almost went in the stew pot today. He was giving Rebekah trouble.
Glad everything worked out well. Do what's right for you. Don't worry about those who don't work YOUR land. Your farm is really coming together.
Looking forward to seeing the little spring lambs jumping about.
First lambs were born today.
@@CountryViewAcres Superb! Congratulations.
Poor Dusty! I like that bird.
Worked out really great for you folks and the animals too. Fantastic job both of you. Fred.
Nice shirt! Farmer Tyler Ranch! I'm sure he appreciates your support!!
I sure do!
I believe that it’s all about the calm, when you work with critters. You did well
I get so excited when I see a new posting from Country View Acres. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. God Bless!
Next time you have a burn pile with metal in it ,dig a hole first then all the metal will already be in a hole not spread all over the ground. I like your channel, keep up the good work. George Phoenix AZ
Short, kind, and helpful UA-cam comment section reply. Gotta love unsung heroes like this one!
Yes, I don't think I will burn in the field again. The next place will be better suited.
Good thinking!
Evan here in ga our vets will ai the cows, plus they'll teach you how.@@CountryViewAcres
Oxygen would not be available in the pit, to burn brush, etc. effectively. This is not an new concept, but a proven one over time.
Nice work you two!
Maybe give them a special treat while in the chute. Love your video's, thank you for sharing.
Contact your County extension agent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I look forward to all your videos!
Great job you two work good together love your videos thank you
Lesson learned the hard way. When pulling the strings on feed bags, only pull enough to open the bag. That way you have access to the feed/ fertilizer or whatever and the string, paper tag are attached and easy to keep everything together until disposal
If youre not aware, a wire hook can be used to catch a chickens leg. They are commercially available but they’re easily made with a stiff piece of wire.
Great progress. Congratulations.
Suggestion. Contact your local FFA instructor for a AI source, should be a lot of AI people. I had my daughter's sows AI from our local FFA group.
Great Idea. The FFA is a great resource.
That went well. You work so good together ! I LOVE YOU GUYS !!! 🥰🥰
Love the Farmer Tyler Ranch T-shirt. 👍👍💚🐑🐑🐑🐂🐂🐴🐮
I put my chute in an alleyway that leads to pasture they walk through it once a day
Nice to see that you had a successful effort with the cows! You guys deserve a break once in a while!
Good to see R's knee working well.
She is a farm animal nurse. Nice job. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.
When slowly directing cattle or sheep, keep your arms out stretched in a T formation. This makes animals see you as larger & more intimidating.....it works.
Al way enjoy your videos! Thank you!
That squeeze chute was a great investment!
I love the sound of the Spring Peepers in the background during the outro.
hope you get to feeling better soon always look forward to your videos
Talk to a local dairy and see if they would breed her. When we had show heifers, we would take them to a dairy for a month to get them bred.
Love your content and what you have with your orchard and your garden bud I am jealous. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for sharing.🐂
Maya loves her daddy!!! Well done taking care of your herd! 💉❤️🩹
Lol, I like the way Mo and Elly stood there for each other. 😁
Dusty is one handsome boy!!!
Been waiting to see this! Thanks.
We enjoy your videos. Was good to see the vacations went well with the animals. Thank you for sharing your life on the farm with us. Have a great rest of your week.
Banded, vaccinated and de-wormed the little bulls on my friends farm this week. Took advantage of the nice weather we had.
You did great!!!
You might want to take a look at The Hoof GP to see about setting up a loading chute. You will have to look for one of the older videos as he tends to be at farms with fixed chutes these days.
you got real lucky! although two is easier when you are calm and be gentle. dealing with 150 head is a whole other story!
Love watching you two
Having the right equipment makes the job easier! Congratulations!
Great to watch you guys work with your friendly animals. Love them. ❤
Pruning at this time is a little bit late , on less prune very few or very little in size . You might have to pick a few of the blooming flowers off so that they don't break branches as the fruit comes on and gets bigger .
Once the saps are up in the trees , pruning is hard on the trees , as well as fruit production later on in the year .
Nice video. Good luck. Want to see the new lambs !!!
Neat stuff, I actually work at your local ag supplier and that’s how I found you guys. Keep up the good work
Great job Rebecca and Evan. If you have a Veterinary program in your area maybe check to see if they have students that could come to do the AI for experience. Best of luck with your lambing. 🐑
Nice ! God Bless !!!
wisdom. well done, well said
The next eclipse seems to be crossing near yall.Hope to see it on your video! Good work!
Hey Evvan, you need to curve the front up like your boat, so it will not dig in the grass when you pull it.
Nice setup, always enjoy watching
First time seeing a new squeeze-chute. Ours was well-worn.
Just watched FTR live! 😁 Hope you’re able to find a bull. Maya sure is beautiful 🤎
You should take the horns off Ellie before it gets too warm with the flies if you plan on taking them off any Ash is still doing you good that you buried would be interesting to see how he will grow on that spot if it ends up being taller greener will be interesting to see
You know that's never going to happen. Right?
Really appreciate your videos and hope you keep them coming.
You may want to look into a hydraulic trimming stand for your sheep. They work great and once they get used to it they will be easy to work on the animals.
maybe a long rod that will fit the holes on the chute that goes from the top and thru the gate and out the bottom holes will work and easy and fast to throw it on next time
I am surprised it did not come with one. Some do.
Farmer Tyler Ranch shirt!!!
She is like a puppy dog; I am glad you don't have to send her to freezer camp.
Don’t put off the pruning of your fruit trees any longer. make it a priority. there are plenty of UA-cam videos on how to prune various varieties of fruit trees. now is the time to get that taken care of. 😊
Love the FTR shirt! Love both of your channels!
That was interesting to watch you use the chute to vaccinate the cows and sheep.
Looks lie Rebecca has administered a shot or two in her days. 😁😁
Boy that brought back some memories. Except w 40-50 head at a time in a pen whom needed convincing 😉. “Vet” days. Shots, pills, ear tags and some steer “making”.
A real farm.
Great Video Evan & Rebekka 👍🏻
Hello! Really enjoy watching your videos. Love seeing homesteaders! I remember my grandfather taking his sheep and flipping them over right on their backs for shearing. They cooperated very well. Gramps and my dad held the sheep for shots. And when the pigs were castrated, dad held, gramps cast em and done quickly. I remember watching this as a child. I sure miss hanging around my grandparents farm. They had a lot of chickens, sheep, pigs, and cows. Great memories! See you on the next video!
Maya the best entertainment there is.
Thanks for another great video, Evan. Rebekah and you did a great job with the animals, and it looks like the Squeeze Chute will work great. We had a head gate years ago, but it didn’t work as slick as the Squeeze Chute worked. I understood what you were doing in the video, where you were spreading potash, and why you were not using the burned material. I thought you had said something about that, but I would have thought that would have been understood. Well, I had better run and do something today, and until next time, may God bless your days the way He always blesses ours! Donald
I enjoy the channel and by no means am I an expert but I have been around cattle quite a bit and I would not recommend making Mya a pet. Once they start pushing around on you like she is doing they get dangerous without being aggressive, meaning they could seriously hurt you without meaning to.
You guys are amazing ! Thanks for the video entertainment.
That makes good sense.Remember, you can't please.Everybody so please yourself keep it up
Ger your wife to go through first and the cows are sure to follow !
Was the rooster trying to learn to knit? ? ? ?😜
You're lucky Evan the sheep farmers over here in Britain are lambing now and have been for some time. Some have probably been lambing since before the new year at that. They've most likely have gotten their lambs they're going to have for the year. Some have had their sheep up on the fells which are the high hills down the spine of Britain called the Pennines and they can be over 2000 feet high.
A nice holiday for you and Rebekah. But as farmers you wouldn't be able to come over because you would need to have someone to look after your stock.
You guys should really consider building a small bud box in your barn there. You’d be amazed at how well cattle flow through one, and the way you guys patiently handle your animals would make it work that much better. I think you’ve got room to make that work, even if you have to put the box outside and lead into the alleyway inside.
Thank you for the explanation. It clears mine and everyone else question on this.
Good job getting them all their shots, good equipment makes for an easier task. I have a Tarter sweep pen with head gate, makes our job easier and safer. Burying that ash was what I would have done too, which I did under similar circumstances. Take care of your cold, I've had mine for a few weeks. Enjoyed watching, I hope you have a good Friday and weekend too.
Like the video Evan ,Reb. Vaccination to.
Cattle visions has Artificial classes
Hi you should get a livestock scratching brush cow scratcher Brush
Great T-shirt, love Farmer Tyler Ranch!
An alternative to injections would possibly be a pour on drench on the spine just before the tail.Excellent crush,but those pens will have to be tall and stout if you're going to run beef cattle.Otherwise they can jump out of the pens(Been there,got the tshirt).
Cattle can also ingest the metal when grazing. You can give cattle magnet cow pills to help collect the metal ingested. As a kid I would play with these strong magnets.
Good work guys!👍🏻
My next door neighbor in suburban Dallas Tx. has very small peaches on his trees. We have had a lot of warm weather in the past two weeks and are quickly approaching our normal last frost. I hate cold weather and am very glad it is gone, hopefully as anything can happen. Growing up in Oklahoma, we had a famous person, Will Rodgers, who said if you don't like the weather in Oklahoma, wait a minute. That also applies to north Texas as well.
Good vlog guys Mia is like a Big puppy
I’d be careful on shot placement on that heifer, if you get too low on the neck, their main artery runs about the middle of the neck. The higher up the better.
Hello Evan Rebecca enjoyed your video. Nice work have a great day.
💖💖💖💖💖💖
Love that Mia and those big brown eyes. Always enjoy your videos 😊
Great video
Hey Evvan, your videos really make me de-stress.
YOU BOTH SHOULD PROTECT YOUR EYES AND EARS WHEN USING THOSE CIRCLE SAWS .. take my humble advice. 73 and watching from Toronto
Hey Evvan, use a winch attached to the tractor to drag woods from among the trees
Great video.
When we had a recalcitrant animal, we never pushed with our arms. On ours, that would have been an invitation to get kicked. We stepped up on the side boards of the entrance alley to get above the potential kick zone, and then dropped in behind the animal too close for a kick. Literally in contact with the animal’s legs. Then we grabbed as far forward as we could onto the boards about shoulder level, and then walked forward, pushing the animals forward with our thighs. So we lightened the backs of the animals, and they aren’t very strong pushing back against us. We pushed large (well over 1,000 lb) animals that didn’t want to go into the chute. It was the easiest way to do it, and it was done without getting kicked.
Hey Evan. Beautiful livestock. And I am NOT giving up beef! ❤🇺🇸🍀
Good job guys, hope you get better soon mate
