- Here here's a clip of our Cattle barn that we use for our Black Angus. This was designed by the farmer for easy access of feeding and moving cattle. Check out the frost free waterers and the high roofs. When building it we took into consideration the weather patterns around the farm, so that we could adequately keep our herd out of the weather when needed. Check out these other videos on different parts of the barn.

Just built two new cattle barns in northwest Ohio
60x184 and 66x184
Used for cow calf and feeding out cattle with dry manure facility in the middle which is 66x60.
Raise all black angus cattle. We have it in our blood. Best wishes

Veri good barn!!!
Yes makes sense I was getting info to have one myself
You are right we have two calling pens and need more. Running 130 head right now.
beautiful. :D
Great design. Makes all the difference for the cattle and farmer.
Merry Christmas to you and your family
Hey....no I'm not looking in to steers..perhaps a few here and there as I'm currently doing...I keep my bulls about 1.5 miles away from the rest of my heard...I'm looking at a Barne / feed lot like this to house about 250 head...a mixture of of heifers, calves and some steers all separate ofcaurse...Farming comes a long way in the family therefore I'm saing this is really very well designed....
That's a nice setup.
Seems like never enough room.
Always need more!
+joe wisman yeah we'd like to build another one LOL. . . all in time though
can i visit your barn to get an ideas how the setup...so i can build one like this one??? by the way...is it full concrete on flooring or just the feeding that is concrete?
also what is the size of this barn?
Spider at 4:17 lol
Hey, I like your curtain system!
Would you let me know where I can buy the same system? I appreciate 😊
Is this a cow-calf, backgrounder or feedlot operation? I like the barn!
We started out as a feed lot operation, but the price of beef went down so we switched to cow and calf. Check out our other videos on the pasture
What size is your barn?
Can you plz how water through work and it's length
v nic
i like that barn, where do you get the plans and how much does it cost
+Michael Archie we designed it and did much of the work ourselves. My guess is to build something like this it would probably cost around 150 thousand.
How do u figure head per building
What do you scrape the manure for? So they don't stand in it while eating?
Farmer Tater If they have crops they spread it over the crops, also it keeps the pens clean and less likely do have diseases spread.
I see you mentioned the overall size. What are the sizes of the pens and widths of the feed alley. I’m looking into building a very similar set up but with only 2 groups.
The walkway we made 12 ft the first two pens or 40x40
What is the capacity of the barn? How many animals can it take?
Really nice barn what are the dimensions? Would love to build one like it on my farm.
75 ft wide 130 ft long we did put in three different pens so we can have different age cattle in this Barn. Thanks for the comment
This Barn is for sale now here. We purchased another Farm
The farming life. I have a question I am thinking of getting into raising feeder cattle do you feed them chopped hay and corn silage
Yes we do feed corn silage and dry hay in a TMR ration. I'll try to have more videos in the mixing process
Thank you! I know I asked you for this video. What is the barns holding capacity?
Is it just for finishing? At some point I thought there were brood cows in there.
We could fit 250 head in it, we use it for a cow and calf operation right now. Depending on the markets we could swith if we wanted. We do feed some out on occasion.
The farmer, @ELM CUSTOM HARVESTING, wants to know if you saw the black angus bull on Lancaster farming that was need out of power line. . .we have 12 cow bread to hit
+The Farming Life I saw a picture of the bull on Instagram I believe. Looks sharp.
+Pennsylvania Farming is there an ad in Lancaster Farming or an article.
Hello from Ukraine. Please tell me,what size is your barn ? And how many cattle you have in there?
The steer Barn is 130 ft long 75 ft wide and it can hold up to 200 head it depends on size and how we are using it at the moment with a cow-calf operation
Hello, why 3 paddocks? do you have 3 paddocks with 3 different angus grups? or you mix your angus from one paddock to another? do your angus bully each other? How they treat to small ones? how will they treat newcomers cows/calfs in same paddock?
my Angus dont bully each other but separating age groups might beneficial bc smaller younger animals can get pushed away from the feed area.
Is it for sale
Do the cattle sit down lower to eat than the drive through?
+Tate Bardall yes they are down lower, it allows us to be able to scrape the manure down without getting it on the feed lot and they don't have to pick their head up to chew
Was this a dairy before you guys? Very nice facility
no I built this Barn 4 steers and if I decide to milk cows I can switch over or raise pigs on pen pack we are a first-generation farm so we have to be open to different ideas. and change with markets to keep ahead
Thank you, this was one of our cost big projects. We are a first generation farming family and the farm we are starting out on was non operational. We had to start with nothing and build from there. Like Elm custom harvesting said we designed the barn so that we could switch operations of needed. Check out this video on our background.:

How far do y'all live from that barn does it smell pretty bad?
We live within 150 feet of the barn and never had a problem with smell because we use a lot of bedding.
How can I get ahold of you to get a size of your barn, pens, etc?
The total length of the barn is 130 ft by 75 ft wide three different pens in the barn too house different size cattle
Xin hỏi chủ trang trại bò Angus black tôi muốn nhập khẩu giống này khoảng 1000 con về Việt Nam được chứ

NM NM are you looking to purchase steer building . or would you like more information. I am the farmer who designed this building. you can let me know what you're looking for and then I can give you more information about how to contact me. thanks for your comment
The Farming Life I would like a barn like that how much does a barn like that cost
NY Farmer I had a quote 145000 dollars. I did 85% of the work myself and I saved a lot of money. I did all the steel Gates inside. and construction. I had help on the concrete and curtains. I hope this helps you give you an idea what it costs. thanks for your comment
I thought u had black angus cattle
wheres the husband?
"Black" Agnus? That's racist! Try African-American Agnus, Bubba. #BLM
