  • In this video we start by fixing a broke quick release on our Massey Ferguson 7615, a calf that was more or less on deaths door makes a lucky recovery and a simple calf feeder fix makes that made a big difference

    Hello Adrian! Enjoyed your video as I had breakfast prior to running my 16 yr old to the airport here in Charleston, SC for a school tour trip of the British Isles. They start in Dublin, Ireland! ❤ 🇮🇪 Then on to Edinburgh and London. I'm hoping they see at least a bit of sun over the 10 day tour, but the forecast is pretty grim. But it was nice to see you had a few peeks of blue sky - I hope it shows up for much longer soon. Take care!

    • @IFarmWeFarm

    You are a very skilled man. That's not an easy job to get a tube in the right throat passage. Great video and great save of an awesome little calf. Your herd is a credit to how calm you are around them. My dad always said a true herdsman/ person is reflected through their animals.

    I’m going to go to the store and see if I can find some handles to put on my calf feeders right now! Hadn’t thought of it before but then I don’t feed the calves very often, thanks for the idea. If we still have the cows in on the first of may I will not be that surprised but we will be on the last crumbs around here, it didn’t help that everything was in a month early and the cows were in six weeks earlier than the year before. Lots of grass just far far too wet to let them out, the damage would be appalling.

    Nice to see some calm, well 'mannered' cows Adrian. My calves once weaned used to go the the main holding, a large arable farm in Lincolnshire, I'd get them back at the dairy 3 wks before autumn calving started in August, and they'd be pretty stupid and not a joy to milk for several wks. They had a large, curved handling system in there installed, as we reared all the bulls n beef and it seemed they never got the one on one treatment, just every handling time, shoved thro as fast as possible, rushed, poked about. The owner refused to believe this, but he was the son, inherited the whole 3500 acres in total, knew bugger all about cows when I first started there in 2005. He made some clangers and it was always the royal "we", as in, we, got that wrong, we, didn't realise that did we- i did but he wouldn't listen. Head shoved up own ar@e comes to mind.

    Hi Adrian and family, watching your videos from Perth, Western Australia and I have been watching for a very long time now and I have learnt so much about your diary farm. I especially love learning all about your cows, calving, fields, milking etc and I am astounded at all the equipment you need and use. You put so much effort into making these interesting and fun videos and we really enjoy watching them. You work so hard everyday and into the evening and still manage to keep a cheery face on. Thanks again and I will continue to keep watching. Love the accent by the way. We have been to Ireland twice on holidays but never got to see a farm.

    Glad you were able to put your feet up with a Pizza, am with you knowing what the weather will bring. Yesterday in the space of an hour we had sunshine, showers, hail stones, torrential rain, sunshine again and then the temp dropped and it was freezing. Good idea with the handles, I always feel it's the little wins that make a day happy. 👍

  • @dieselbushcraft1299
    @dieselbushcraft1299 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I’ve seen an automated milking system where the cows wear a transponder and they queue up to be automatically let into a stall and totally without any human intervention suction cups are mechanically placed onto the cows. The machine recognises when the cow has only recently milked and lets the cow out of the stall. It really felt like a factory and no real animal care.
    I’m glad to see farmers still working with their animals and showing care for them. I hope the factory farming like the above never takes on but I guess it probably will.

    Before we had a bulk tank we had 10 gallon churns, dad had a cooler which he dropped into a full churn then attached a water hose . the water would go threw pipes to the bottom of the churn and up again to cool the milk and the water pressure would also rotate the cooler on the way out.that was hi tek in the 60s and 70s👍
