Great video Alistair! Awesome to see the Dosing Gun coming in handy and the Crush for both cattle and calves 🙂

[@johnjordan4647]

Gee the Te Pari crush is certainly a big asset for one man operation handling the cattle. The drone mustering the cattle Alistair you will have to negotiate a redundancy agreement with the dogs 🥹😅😂🤣😆😁😄😃😀

[@DeirdreHickey-nx8nt]

Alister, you must be doing those hand and arm movements in your sleep. It’s just automatic for you. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️❤️

[@DeirdreHickey-nx8nt]

My goodness, fantastic drone work. Do the cattle really react in the way you want them to when you fly it. Your beautiful dogs will be getting jelous ❤️❤️❤️.

[@rodmackinnon8497]

Love the drone cattle drive . . . hope it lasts . . . I thought it was funny in one video, when you said it doesn't work on sheep. It only seems like a month ago you were shearing, getting ready for winter. Cheers, great video.

[@MarkDonnelly-j9v]

Hi I like your video

[@azamyahmad]

[@bryanking6239]

Excellent results with your heifers!

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Thanks Fer explaining everything that is going on.

[@deedawson6074]

Great footage and video. 🇳🇿

[@jonathankeith2547]

That mustering worked really well, I’ve thought about trying it, but many of our paddocks might be a bit large (80-100Ha). I would have to do a battery change half way through.

[@kiwifarmernz]

When i muster the cows out of the back blocks i need two batterys. Each lasts about 20 min.

Hope you got to see the "southern lights" show. 🤙🏻 from Tauranga.

[@kiwifarmernz]

cloudy last night but hopefully see them tonight.

[@ashdavy9828]

Do you tag tails for ptic and cut tails for drys over there Alister or you just send the empties into a seperate paddock afterwards?

[@kiwifarmernz]

Paint empties with spray then to a different paddock.

[@GoldiefromMahia]

Come on girl hup up pup pup pup pup pup

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

Nixmint, zroomzroom drones bringing in the girl's, only in New Zealand high country 😅😅😅😅.

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

Come on girl's. 😊.

[@aaronteelow3320]

why do you shear your ewes leading into winter?

[@kiwifarmernz]

It works well for us. Helps to grow lamb inside the ewes due to higher feed intake of the ewes. Helps ewes to find shelter while lambing and fits into our management plan with ewes at the lease block.

[@stephendickson9000]

Are the dogs on strike?

[@stephendickson9000]

Did the vet use lube when they gave you the bill?

[@kiwifarmernz]

hmmmm haven't got the bill yet, maybe i should,

[@austinlloyd9757]

how do you know that steer wants too be a girl 😂😂😂😂look at liea thomas ,,you should have got vet too probe him and then perhaps get the VET TO SAY A STEER CANNOT GET PREGNANT 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

The girl's are definitely complaining about being violated, 😮😮😮😮.
