Another great video. Hope Pa did good on the steer sale. Tiffany is one beautiful sweetheart. Always great to see her pop in for an appearance. God Bless.
Great flik. When you were tilliing, I was watching the way the earth came off the disks. Interesting. When the camera was above the implement, some times it would break up nicely, that was good. Some times it would sling across the top and all over, that was MUD. Other times the open water would rinse off the disks. Pretty interesting, the different actions there. And ALL at the mercy of mother nature; Thanks again guys for letting me come along here. I really enjoy it. I'd love to play with all the toys, but there are too many rules to really have fun at it. Thanks guys.
Hope Brian did great on selling the steers. The life of a farmer,one year its dry and the next to wet. I couldn't do it and admire the ones that can. Without these farmers we would be a hungry bunch.
🎵oooe that sound of mud from hooves in the mud 🎶hear the cash register ring🎶 Great to see all the GREEN and moisture to spare . We never (ya’ll too) complain about rain ever cause as Brian said this weeks drought is over … we’ll see bout next week then . Steers looked good hopefully $$$$ good. Ya’ll have a blessed week up there Cole
I just heard "Don't Close your eyes" this past week for the first time, then you pick it Brian. Good song, didn't know he had passed long ago. Thanks for the information.
Super nice steers…..Love the song of the day…..One of my favorites…..Ellie and Sonny having a great day playing…..Ellie loves the company…..That big bull is quite a beautiful site!!!!He looks majestic standing..posing for the picture…..Cattle prices are really good right now….Those cows loving that lush grass…..Another great video….See ya soon..
Awesome song of the day Brian, "Don't close your Eyes, by Keith Whitley". This rain coming in off and on can give us headaches, but it is better than a drought, nice problem to have. Good luck on the planting, hope you have some success. Thanks and have a nice evening.
Thanks for another great video Cole. It was interesting and enjoyable. Lots of rain you have been receiving-wow. I noted your cattle lots are pretty deep with mud and some standing water. Hang in there!!!!!’ Been there done that. Hard to work in those conditions plus hard on the animals. You managed to load out 180 head of your cattle for sale. I trust you did well Brian at the sale barn. Your cattle looked real nice size wise. You always do well feeding them out for sale. You are an excellent cattle feeder always. Nice going. Good job Cole doing tillage on your new ground you got to rent. Doing tillage on the wet areas will sure help it dry out that is for sure. You are doing great on your new ground. Hopefully you can plant soon if it drys out. Fingers crossed. Oh my goodness-a chewed up mouse in the heater fan blade-wow!!!!! Not the best smell around plus cleaning up the fan blades. Oh my!!!!! Good job done!!!!’ Super song Brian. Keith had a beautiful voice, passed away too soon in life. Sad. Tiffany you found some good wild stems in the grass. Watch out for the barbed wire fence. Ouch!!! Sonny is sure growing. Big eater on his food. Cute young man!!!!! About it I guess. Hopefully the ground will dry up for you so you can get the planter going. Hang in there Brian and Cole. Thanks for everything. You take care and be safe. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
I was going to suggest the same thing. Chisel a Grove and drill a hole under or through the side. Might have to clean it out with your foot once in awhile
Another Great episode of Sonne Farms. Good to see a Great Harvest of steers. Looked like a Good yield this year. Mrs. Sonne Beautiful as ever. Cole, I don't think driver hurts his neck. He uses his mirrors. You knew that. You was just testing to see if everyone was paying attention.. lol
All that rain makes my day. I haven't cut my yard yet this year since it's NO MOW MAY to help feel the pollinators. Way better then being in a drought. Hope you get the seed in and get a great crop.
Well done again Gentlemen 180 steers loaded different ways bred , but all like Peas in a Pod !! Some show of fed cattle Regards Brian Dawson Edinburgh Scotland 😎

I can't believe how green everything is around your place. This is really going to help the water table. A nice camera placement and perspective on the disk.
There is an art to finishing cattle out! Not everybody can do it or has the patience all the bill to the stay with it All the way to finish! We are just about done with crops here first time around lol. We escaped rain last night
We were out moose hunting in northern Alberta. We were delayed by an October snowfall. We turned on the furnace when we got back and we heard a terrible noise. We had to use an electric heater and our gas propelled generator. When we got back to Calgary, the price was $250 to remove a mouse from the furnace fan. I understand that the RV tech had more to take apart.
Glad the pasture is doing well. Hopefully the rain stays away for a while. Here in Michigan we are doing fairly well. A couple guys with prevent plant and replant, but not many. A lot better than last year so far.
I have some fond and not so fond memories of small town street dance’s also Cole. After few years/decades a person looks back and thinks why did I do that and amazed you are still alive!😂 You might need a tracker for that little boy Sonne in case he gets lost in the tall grass! 🤣
I have a few wet spots. I drilled "wet" holes with the auger, got about 6' & hit sand. The wet spots were gone the next day. I filled the holes with more sand ..they dry quickly. Sonne Farms!!
Good day gentlemen there were some nice-looking steers you sold. You mentioned Keith Whitley it was 30 years ago last week he passed away from alcohol poisoning what a lost. I had a little corgi dog named foxy boy did I love her , They are so smart.Take care always be safe.😅
That's a real truck driver he's been backing up a lot I have been in some places that if you didn't know how to back up you were in trouble I backed down a road in south Florida one time with flags on the slides of the road because it was under about 8inchs of water but when it's time to move cows you move them and that was with a 46ft pot but back then that was a top of the line trailer but God Bless Y'all and let your dad take a break every now and then he is working to hard you need to take over the heavy work let buy and sale and Rock and Roll
Hey Cole and Brian and the women we have been getting blasted with rain the last 3-4 weeks and it has rained 7 Sundays in a row as we had plenty of fog in January through March And now yesterday we got hail and golf ball size for 25 minutes, I can see the premiums going high and crop a disaster as bad as the weather conditions have been. For rain by Sanborn Iowa we've had over 11 inches of rain in the last 10 days.
Another great video! Coud be a dumb suggestion but maybe you can have that pit pump-jacked to raise the back of it so it drains properly? We pump-jack our sidewalks and driveways when they settle wrong. Fresh asparagus, yum!
So happy the cows are getting out on grass so you don't have to feed them. You get that week, week and half window, Cole help your dad and run the planter late! As for your experience with the middle aged man, you are much better than me, I would've gotten in trouble.
Hope the sale was worth the energy to feed the steers love seeing cows going out to pasture. Watching you in the field with the tractor tilling makes me think there will be a bit of pressure washing in the future. Fresh asparagus cool
Usually they sell in lot’s/groups, so they weigh say a group of 10 or so and get an average weight per Steer. So then each steer would be the same price in that lot of 10, which will probably vary depending on what the buyer’s pay.
Oh Lord....the dreaded GM truck heater fan removal. I do these at work ALL the time.....for some reason, the Silverados and Sierras attract rodents into the HVAC case above the cabin filter. So, when we check the filters, all that junk falls down into the fan. It's so often that the service manager has me do it because I've gotten so good at it. It pays me good, so I do it happily. How'd you like getting to that one 7mm screw in the upper right corner of the lower cover? Fun times, eh? :) Only found one mouse so far...most of the time, it's remnants of the filter, plus eleventy pounds of random jute padding and insulation material.
Das boote lol 😂. El Ninio should be done. Now let the rains fall on the middle of the country. Here in SE Kansas we have been in the same boat as you. Lets be hopeful for a better year with moisture.😊
Those were some nice looking steers. Hopefully Papa got enough to make it worthwhile? Great song Brian thank you I was wondering why you didn’t do the whole field or do you guys do no till planting? That rain is certainly made it. Tough on you guys for getting out in the field and planting I know the guy in Minnesota is having the same issues. He’s three weeks behind because of the rain which is a darn shame. I hope that when the rain does stop, it doesn’t stay too long so that you guys can get good hay and grass for the balespeace out to you guys. Thank you so much.
How old is that calf you chased out of the bunk. Looks like another over acheiving sunne farms specimen. You guy have the nicest looking animals. I feel like i say that so often, but you have such fine animals.
It sure is a muddy mess there. Hope Brian makes a ton of money so he can take Tami on another well deserved trio. Our asparagus was great this year, to bad it only grows wild for a few weeks. God bless and be safe.
An old Toro snowblower would do quick work on that water. Use the old style with the big barrel auger. I've used those to throw ditch water over the road to the other side. No pump or hose is required!
Hey Cole are you going to dig some trenches to get the water out? Maybe it would help while you know where to dig them to make it better for the future of your crops. Great video about how it’s going for you guys.
Another great video. Hope Pa did good on the steer sale. Tiffany is one beautiful sweetheart. Always great to see her pop in for an appearance. God Bless.
Thank you Cole and Dad Brian for sharing everything.Great job on loading the steers.God bless you all.
Two of my favorite guys to watch.
Three. My apologies Jeff.

Need a squeege for your Bobcat, or a sump pump for the grain bunker. Glad you guys got the rain you desperately needed. Hay bale record this year.
Brian you are so cool, ill bet there are numerous kids that wish you were their dad!! Good job guys 💪. Keep up the good work 💪👍.
GREAT footage from the tiller. My Grandpa and I used to fish in the Jim river near Gayville. I used night crawlers for bait. He used M80s.
Super nice steers…..Love the song of the day…..One of my favorites…..Ellie and Sonny having a great day playing…..Ellie loves the company…..That big bull is quite a beautiful site!!!!He looks majestic standing..posing for the picture…..Cattle prices are really good right now….Those cows loving that lush grass…..Another great video….See ya soon..

The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
That was a lot of cows that got sold. Looks like Cole was having fun working the ground. Another great video keep up the good work
excellent work Cole and Brian
Hey Cole, you could chisel out a 1/2 inch groove and hole at the back of that pit to drain the water out the back.
I was going to suggest the same thing. Chisel a Grove and drill a hole under or through the side. Might have to clean it out with your foot once in awhile
Nice looking cattle. Nice looking new ground
The St. Francis of the cattle industry, even the steers loading are calm! Just can’t get over it! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you Sonne farms!!!

Cole, I don't think driver hurts his neck. He uses his mirrors. You knew that. You was just testing to see if everyone was paying attention.. lol
Omgoodness 😂 Thanks for sharing ! I think the Hamsters finally rubbed off on the wild😂 it looked like the mice were trying to exercise in the wheel❤
All that rain makes my day. I haven't cut my yard yet this year since it's NO MOW MAY to help feel the pollinators. Way better then being in a drought. Hope you get the seed in and get a great crop.
Your setup for moving and sorting cattle is fantastic. You make it look so easy. 😊
Well done again Gentlemen
180 steers loaded different ways bred , but all like Peas in a Pod !!
Some show of fed cattle

Another great video. Lots of moisture
Nice to see you have green stuff this spring. Last yr was pretty sad to see. Looking forward to seeing the alfalfa progress and baking videos
Some mighty handsome bovines there, good work, guys!
Hi Tiffany fresh veggies enjoy & stay safe Cole and Tiffany
Nice to see you taking good care of that little puppy unlike another TH-camr a while back 👍
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always 🌞 Farms!!!
Love that song. Love that voice.
I've ALWAYS felt bad about the farmers that lose acreage d/t low spots, wondering why they couldn't dredge it level?

Those were bought by a finishing lot. Most likely
11:24 Ah the joys of living on a farm. Don't feel bad. FWIW, I live in a city and a mouse made a nest out of QTips in the glove box of my BMW.

Farming is quite the career. Just the other day you wanted to fertilize before a rain. I'd say that the fertilizer is fully activated. 😃
That is a nice looking bull you got ther cole
Looks like the ground you were tilling up is good rich soil. I realize it was alittle wet. But looked like it worked up good.
That's a real truck driver he's been backing up a lot I have been in some places that if you didn't know how to back up you were in trouble I backed down a road in south Florida one time with flags on the slides of the road because it was under about 8inchs of water but when it's time to move cows you move them and that was with a 46ft pot but back then that was a top of the line trailer but God Bless Y'all and let your dad take a break every now and then he is working to hard you need to take over the heavy work let buy and sale and Rock and Roll
I could literally smell while watching the mouse clean out 😂😂😂
Awesome video thanks for sharing
Cole lol shaking it twice!!!!
Green pastures are a blessing.. and sonny
Hey Cole and Brian and the women we have been getting blasted with rain the last 3-4 weeks and it has rained 7 Sundays in a row as we had plenty of fog in January through March And now yesterday we got hail and golf ball size for 25 minutes, I can see the premiums going high and crop a disaster as bad as the weather conditions have been.

Great video as always. That is going to be one heck of a power wash job on that tillage tractor.
Cole went to touch that spinning cage and I was yellin' at the screen, 'I wouldn't touch that if I was y'all...' lol
Awesome job loaded cattle truck's love cattle truck's
More pup please! 😂
Thanks for the videos!
HI FROM GLASCO KS SONNE FARMS 😊
Nice to see you are getting moisture like the rest of us
You need a few barn cats to help with the mice problems 🐈⬛🐈 Best wishes from England UK 🇬🇧
Another great video!

That middle aged man was the original Artisan They named a well after him

Thank you for another great video.
I love watching your videos, they are so informative about everything ❤️🙏🏼🥰😊🐶🐶
Try drilling a hole at the back of the bunk for water to drain. Find the lowest point next to the wall.
That black soil is beautiful! Is it possible to back the implement into the low spots and drag some of the water out?
Their some hefty looking steers. Let us know what they go for each approximately please. ❤ 🐂 🐕 🚜
They're*
Usually they sell in lot’s/groups, so they weigh say a group of 10 or so and get an average weight per Steer. So then each steer would be the same price in that lot of 10, which will probably vary depending on what the buyer’s pay.

Interesting! THanks!
7:42 looks like you need to drill a couple of drainage holes for the back wall there… poke some holes in that swimming pool 😂
Someone stealing the asparagus in the fence row was one thing that made my Mother upset.
Hope the sale went your way….I just dug two swales in my small pasture, so I’m sure it will not rain again until September.
Great vidio
enjoyed your Dad's pose! that was awesome!
Great song of the day! Love Keith Whitley!
Hope cattle prices were primo @ the sale.
Das boote lol 😂. El Ninio should be done. Now let the rains fall on the middle of the country. Here in SE Kansas we have been in the same boat as you. Lets be hopeful for a better year with moisture.😊
Your wash boy will have fun with that tractor and plow. Ha ha

Good show today ! 👍
I hope all the big winds I'm seeing on the weather channel are staying away from you guys. 🙏
Yep, I remember I was in the tractor up in Batesland South Dakota when they announced the death of Whitley. A great song!!!
An old Toro snowblower would do quick work on that water. Use the old style with the big barrel auger. I've used those to throw ditch water over the road to the other side. No pump or hose is required!
Just thinking, you take a piece of old baler belt or conveyor belting, make an squeegee for your bobcat or skid steer to sweep water
That'll work. It's about time for another project anyway.
awsome video cole thumbs up and shared
Those were some good looking steaks loading up on the trailer.
Loved Keith Whitley's singing, especially "Don't Close Your Eyes". Sorry I wished too much rain on you guys, just say "enough is enough".
Hey Cole are you going to dig some trenches to get the water out? Maybe it would help while you know where to dig them to make it better for the future of your crops. Great video about how it’s going for you guys.
I just had a big bowl of Pinto Beans and smoked sausages, and I swear I can smell that stuff you are walking in sorting and loading those steers.
Cole u should get skid steer plate and make a type of squeegee attachment for times ur bunk is holding water
And /or make a drain at at the lower end
Another great vid boys
Can you use a sump pump with a garden hose in your cracked corn pit? Nice looking steers . Time for new whips guys.
Would putting in some field tile help it drain better?
I really like that song your Dad mentioned/ yes is a sadder song but so. Good 👍🏽
Always a great video.
Great video bud 👍👍
