- So the lesson here for those that don't know, never mess about with young calves unless you know what you are doing. Even the most loving and adorable cow can turn into a wild cape Buffalo at the flick of a switch when she has a calf, if she perceives you as a threat she can become a bellowing snot slinging monster that wants to stomp on you. Always have a plan and escape route, and ideally some help to separate the calf first before you do anything with it. Oh, and maybe some ear defenders.

Oh I’ve not laughed that much in ages! 🐄
Cheers for all the videos, your well watched in our house 👍🏻
My brother rang me to let me know how amused he was as well James 😄
@@FarmerP
Seems like they want to be together 🙏❤️ reunite Mama and baby
Morning Ian ill be right back need a cup of coffee to enjoy with this he he he .
Never can be too careful around new mums! Glad it all went okay!
When I first saw this, when he was ear-tagging the calf, the Mama Cow scared the shite outta me!!!
WOW! Sure glad you warned us about the upset mother cow. You were lucky! Thanks for another great adventure!
That’s why I prefer to have a decent gate, and the gate post, between me and mum when I am doing this job. There will only be one winner if she decides to give me a hiding, and it won’t be me.
That was a close one!! You have me thinking of my narrow escapes. They certainly get the blood flowing 🙈
Good farm safety practiced. Good that you had spotted it. Well done.
LOL Its not always fun on the farm your face at 12:22 brilliant, Been there done that 🤣😂
Ooo this made me jump wow that is a sound hahaha brilliant keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Loved the vlog
sry ian but that made my monday afternoon coffee, had to watch a few times but very happy that you "only" lost a little hearing on your left ear, just image what would happend if that was "the magic puf" there was going to tag that calve, bet that was goin to be a wardrobe malfuntion big time loool sry abbi but you funny when scared take care and keep up the great work there
Great video as always stay safe and mind yourself
Here in the States it seems we have about 72+ million 'bird brains' acting like that goose. Anyhoo...great video! Stay safe - be well - many blessings.
Hi Ian I actually felt the cow blowing in your ear i have to admit I don't go into fields when the cow's have there young ones with them, I would of thought after the other day and the cottage pie episode you would of been running to the house to get your boiler suite off before you done anything else lol, it just goes to prove how animal's react to protect there young another great video thank you, mick.
Excellent stuff - so unpredictable.
Boy she did want a piece of ya didn’t she! she was gonna have a wee nip round YOUR ear! Thank heavens for the stout gate. 😬🍀🍻 you earned you’re pint that night FP! 🤣
hi Ian cant believe im one of the first ones this morning good job it did'nt do it after that gravy you had the other day haha 😱😱🐄🐄👍
you all keep well and ill catch you soon
True. It would have been more than a bum squeak then John. 😄
@@FarmerP could have filled the turdenator up in one go 👍👍
S,H,1,T, that made me jump well done ian you have shown people that farming is extremely dangerous thanks for showing and teaching us all a lesson take care .
She is normally quite placid, but while she has a new calf...... Different story. 🙂
12:20 🤣🤣 made my day 🤣🤣
Talk about a wet ear. Sounds like goose might be on the menu for Christmas.
They would be a bit chewy, some of them ere 20 plus years old. 😄
@@FarmerP and they still can't find out how to go under the gate. well the saying stupid as a goose are true loool
I know at the time it wasn't funny but on film it was quite funny. Nice video
Glad our cows were chilled, except the Angus x I wish I hadn’t kept. Those little Dexters have a reputation, rather you than me, must have been fun getting them separated.
I had to use a little cunning Wendy, including grabbing one by his feet and pulling him under the gate this year. It’s a case of understanding the beast and out witting it. 🙂
Lucky you didn't still have your dodgy guts from the other day, there'd of been a few go faster stripes up that wall behind you if you did 😂 Great video Farmer P
😂😄👍💩
I'm 6ft built like a brick sh,,,,,se an a protective Friesian cow gave me a proper goin over ribs an chest were black an blue 😳 yeh got a shock that day 🤣 good video Ian 👍👍
Great video.
Yes they can be dangerous and thanks for showing reality.
As I farmed myself I always found it easier tagging putting the tags in the tagger at 90 degrees to the tagger easier to get my prefered placement in the ear.
Only my experience and preference.
Again I really enjoy your channel
I can do that with the male punch tag, but not so easy with the female one Neville. 🙂👍
@@FarmerP okay I used to but maybe mine was a different tagger. Opps I might have been doing it wrong 🤣🤣🤣
@@nevillegill2879
There are many different tagging pliers out there 🙂👍
Good morning mr p, I would cross my legs so i didn’t let the brown stuff come out But you may not be able to run 🏃♀️,yes that would put the wind up ones bum or is that down lol.Well it’s that time again so stay safe and well.🌈🌈
Safe for you, mama and babies
Lucky you didn't have left over pie today! ha ha.
True,💨💩💩💩😄👍

I will let all our members know vie the Community hub Angela. 🙂👍
thats why i love dair cows still get the odd angry one but most just let you. And wow even though you know its coming it still makes you jump lol
Like a I said, the bellow rattled the camera Paul, my ear was a lot closer. 😄
@@FarmerP hahaha yep at least you have safety all i had a qaudy to jump on lol
Good evening to you sir from wellington Somerset
It's a good job you didn't do that tagging yesterday when your stomach was a bit on the upset side Ian!!!
Could have been explosive.. 😬
God above I jumped and I was only watching 😂😂😂
That cow was not happy from the start .I feal your pian I was all sunday . God bless. Rev neil
..... laughing ..... or maybe stupid bird has you trained ..... yup it was a good idea to have that gate between you and mum ..... as always thx for sharing .. never stop dreaming, just dream bigger ... have fun be safe, save our oceans .....
Boy!! aint you glad that you have a `super duper` one
Thanks for the warning. But it still made me jump !
People think the bull is the danger but the cow can be just as bad.
I had one knock me down, she then got on her knees so she could grind me in to the ground the way a bull does. I was out cold by this stage but luckily my friend was there and he saved me.
A blow to the head, 2 broken ribs, 3 cracked ribs and a messed-up hip. I was lucky that was all I got. The ribs and the hip still cause me pain 30 years later.
Ouch I can imagine that. Terrifying, but a good example of why you never do it alone if you can’t safely separate calf from mum. Not all farm memories are good ones.
@@FarmerP hi, very true. When she first calved you needed to go round checking thr cattle in a vheacle. She produced the best calfs but she became to much of a liability so she had to go for chop.
The joys of farming!
I had one cow just last year that jumped clean over the gate let’s just say I think I ran faster than I ever have
Thats way we dont pot the tags in in till we ween the beef cavs but thay ar rejust at birth
@@andrewjardine7226
The calves are a lot stronger then though, and the chance of them causing an injury is far greater. I prefer to tag as soon as I can after they are dry and had a belly full of colostrum, get them registered and job done. 👍😄
Guy I worked for back in the 70s always had trouble getting one of his geese in. One evening he happened to have his 12bore under his arm. Didn't have any more trouble after that.
That would work... 😄
God, That's enough to give you nightmares, I don't think I would have the guts to get that close.
That was very interesting with the cow and her baby. I thought she was going for your hand. I say you had to change your underpants. 😂😆😁
If she could have got to me I would be in hospital now Fearghal, or the morgue. That’s why I get behind the gate post, it’s the strongest point on the race. 🙂👍
@@FarmerP better to be safe than sorry. That's why I will never work on a farm I am happier as a bus driver
Hello Ian, certainly a bit of a moment there,can you hear anything yet? I'd be very interested in a tree pruning vid! Stay safe!
Hi Ian, I’ve not had cattle of my own but have helped a friend of mine who’s got suckling heard of over 300 head of cattle and that brings back not good memories of dealing with cows with calf’s. I’ve had plenty of moments when I nearly had to change my underwear and my legs have gone to jelly but have always been careful. That cow wouldn’t have taken much more before she would have been over the gate and that even made me tremble just watching it do I got ever sympathy with you !
If you look again you will see I tag the calf behind the steel gate post, the strongest part of the race, she would struggle to get over there, but if she tried I did have an escape route out of there as a back up 🙂👍
Always good to have an escape route as a backup plan 👍stay safe
Oh yeah you can get them a "drama queen " and you have two of them a calf and a goose
Ian I share an idea with you that I seen a neighour do and now I do. When tagging to get a tool belt like what a carpenter or a sparks would use. You can have the two tags in it and only have to catch the calf /lamb once
That scared the c out of me lol
Two words come to mind "Squeeze Chute"
Well I know how felt Ian but I was in a much smaller barn and never protected but it’s only a bruise or a sore leg but never really knew why you have to do both ears as back then it was only one ear ear lol 😂
Hi ian my dad worked on a dairy farm for 47 years and i remember him telling me that a cross cow is worse than a cross bull
Great 👍 video mr. P. How many cows 🐄 still to calf keep safe 👍👍😷😷🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧🚜🚜👨🌾👨🌾
The eight we have had were the ones I knew about Sandy, but a couple more would be a bonus after loosing so many last year.
@@FarmerP I hope you get some more before the end of the year thanks 🙏 for the video over the year keep them coming
Have to check underwear after that run in with momma cow.. LOL
Hi Ian that was a close one it looked like the cows were trying to charge at you as a long time subscriber I've never seen that before it's strange at the moment first the calves climbing walls and now the cows showing aggression towards you please stay safe
Cattle are a lot bigger than us and can show awesome spurts of power if you push the wrong buttons. Working with these animals is risky so you can never be on your B game, one wrong decision can put you in hospital, or a wooden box, particularly when there are young calves involved. Walt Disney, and a few others have given too many folks the idea that these animals can think and reason, sing and dance, be more human.... but at the end of the day they live on instinct, rank and habit, they are controlled by hormones and basic requirements.
Big animals must be respected, and treated with care and caution... This is the lesson.
That mom was trying the clip your ear Ian.
U. R. Very. Brave. Ian. Tb.
Brave? Not really, it’s a job I am legally obliged to do David, but I thought I would share the experience to highlight some of the risks farmers must mitigate to put food on folks tables. 🙂👍
🥺 Ian, I was waiting for the loud bellowing cow 🐄 and it made me jump too 💩 wish there was a less invasive tagging, maybe in future a camera ID technology can identify cows 🤞🏼
I can’t see a decent alternative any time soon, this is a simple low tech, high user friendly, difficult to forge identification.
@@FarmerP RFID chip maybe helpful, my old horses had ID chips.
@@cheechU38K
We don’t get much choice on the tags, passport applications are tied to them, if you don’t use approved tags you won’t get a passport.
@@FarmerP so sad for that 🥺
Another great video again I guess it’s that the cow that you took the cleansing away from?
I take it from all of them Craig, leaving any cleansing in the barn is asking for infection,
OK she might have frightened me a little bit. I'd say she scare the s.. t out of you I know how you felt been there but still you made me laugh out loud watching. Good job that was a high wall behind you or else you would have fallen over it.
Pucker Factor 11 right there :-)
😄😄
I hope they do😁
Are your ears and puls back to normal ? I bet me or you might be doing some big damage if our loved one was "in trouble" Fortunaly I am not a farmer, a mooouu in the ear like that for sure had given me a heart atac
Stay safe be well
Next one for the factory,, I think 🤔
Hi farmer P had to watch that part a few times first time scary second time laugh my head off I know I shouldn't really because yeah that could have been a serious accident waiting to happen if the cow jumped the gate you probably would have been injured and that wouldn't have been good maybe if you left the other two calf's in with it in may not been too bad anyway job done let's hope they calm down a bit take care stay safe cheers Antony
I could have kept the other two in, but then it would be three unhappy cows instead of one.. 😄
That was just a liiiiiiiiiiittle bit scary
Two fighting daughters and a angry cow, danger must be your middle name😃 Take it they are Angus?
No they are Dexter cows.
took a little longer made some toast and chased the dog out of the kitchen . Its funny all you have to do is ask her if shes suppose to be in the kitchen the tail go's down the head go's down and she walks out . Don't worry she will be peeking at you around the corner .
A Cow is an incredibly powerful Animal; weighing in at 1700 pounds! That's 1.7 Tons!
Farmers need extreme protection when tagging & processing Calves.
Not only tagging, but necessary shots, blood sampling and often castrating Bull Calves.
Dairy Farmers are Heroes.
Our Dexters rarely exceed 400 kg… 800lb.
But that’s still more than 4x me.
I just noticed my math errorl! Duh!! A Ton is 2000 pounds.. Not 1000! Good lord!!
Gave me fright too, and I am 500 miles away.
It was worse from 500 mm Brendan. 😄
I wonder how bad the breathe of the cow is
It's not just the mothers. I know of a couple of nasty incidents where another cow has taken it on herself to intervene when someone else's calf bawls.
Sorrey. It. Shud. Say. God. Bless. David.
mom was saying NO DAMN EAR RINGS
Unfortunately it’s a legal requirement, we have to tag and register within 27 days of birth, calves can get much bigger and stronger in that time so the sooner the better, it’s safer for the calf and me, provided I can keep mum away.
@@FarmerP So to mama cow, oh well. But she probably still doesn't want any tattoos until the calf is grown and can pay for them itself. 😜😜😂😂😂
@@MrRoadie6 chuckle.. 😄
Now that is whad you call protective
Sixpence, Half crown time. Out of 200 cows for sixteen years I can only remember one or two cows being that protective. I always had more trouble with dairy bulls.
It’s not usually as bad as this Tim. This has been an exceptional year for it.
Holy @##¥! Not a happy bunny was she! The real meaning of a “Moody Cow!”
She meant it too....😬
Numbering those calves made me remember number 11, haven't seen him or her in awhile. How's number 11 doing these days??
He is still a little shorty, but happy enough out with the ewes. 👍🙂
So no skid marks Ian Ha Ha
No, not this time..... Just a little trouser squeak. 😄😄👍
Bit of a squeaky bum moment that mum was protective of her little one
Just a bit 😄
Some looses hearing in 1 ear from going hunting others by tagging calves :)
Maybe the geese is doing it on purpose to make you open the gate for him? So entitled. :) That cow was scary!
👍
Can you still hear out your left side now then? WHAT? 😂😂 sorry had to be said 😬😬
Eh? .... 😄👍
😳😳🙈 one word... sheep!,🤣🙈
Bloody sheep. I have been flattened once or twice by those woolly buggers too in my time. 😄
@@FarmerP 🤣 you need to stick some concrete in your boots lad!!
@@casto- 😄👍
Screw the pipe, I carry a hay fork with me, and I have still been cheese grated off the gate with their head, twice over 10 years. Once when I separated her, she jumped the gate and charged me and other one got me when I was given colostrum a few hours the birth. She was lying down and sprung up lighting fast and head butted the gate driving me across the pen. We also keep the gates high off the ground incase we get caught out and roll under. Danger never takes a day off.
Never had a cow go for me but had a freesian bull charge at me once.
Luckily I was always quite wary of him so as soon as I saw the movement i vaulted the gate. The bull couldn't quite stop in time and charged into the heavy yard gate actually denting it slightly.
Our Dexters may be small in comparison to the big continentals or dairy breeds, but still worthy of a healthy respect. Most of our population see the peaceful cows grazing the green pastures, with little idea of the risks a minority take to produce their food, dairy cattle (not young heifers) are used to more human contact so are usually a bit easier to handle, where the beef farmers may only touch their animals a few times each year... At the end of the day, they all have the ability to do you a serious mischief if you are not on the ball 100% all the time.
sheep are alot quieter 😆🤣😄👍💪🚜
Have you heard them on weaning day?
Oh I don’t know about that, they are quite capable of creating a right royal racket too Whanker..
yep and been with cows on weening day
@@whankerakerill6293
They all make a racket... 😄😄👍
We had to tag calves in an open field... we had a charlais chasing us off. Soo our solution is 2 guys in the loader bucket and one driving. We tag the calf 6 feet in the air lol one guy hold the calf the other tags
I saw a good one a year or two ago, farmer in the States I think had a big bale ring strapped to his loader with some mesh zip tied to the bars to stop the calf escaping , he would drive out, drop the ring over the calf then tag the calf inside the ring. Another guy had a Mule or similar with a 6’ square cage bolted to the side and an automatic gate on the front, w
He could catch a running calf, shut the gate, stop, jump out and tag the calf in the cage, jump back in, release the calf and on to the next one..... The things we do eh. 😄👍
@@FarmerP yeah I had seen the one with the cage before... we didn't have a side by side at the time and our pasture is way to rugged and complex to drive fast in. steep slopes and such
Gosh, those Mamma cows were indeed a tad more than mildly interested in what was going on. Glad that your okay Farmer P. Just noticed the video editor on your screen. What flavor is it. Microsoft removed Movie Maker from the PC's over here, which for me, is just not good. Anyway, keep on with the great work. Thank You! Dave.
Yes its movie maker... I went fishing and found it. Movie maker has no bells and whistles, but its dead simple and does everything I ask of it. I keep a copy on a memory stick.... Just in case 🙂👍
Better safe then sorry mr p. pity one of your daughters could not help you. what are they like
No comment... 😇😄
Wow she mad!!! Reminds me of my x girlfriend!!!!
she was a bit nad Mr p good job you did not follow thrugh lmao 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✔✔✔✔👌👌👌👌
She was not happy
for protection for your ears where some ear plugs or soundproof headphone when mom is yelling in your ear. be happy you got little dexters. we had a year we had some jumpers fries Holsteins milking cows. they can get over 1,6 meter if they want. or go through a fence . so we take the calf's always in other building also to keep them healthy in a nursing barn , that is how it goes with milk cows
Why is the brown heifer being so attentive to a black calf? Herding it around when the calf was tagged and let back. Then at about 14:10 the red calf is suckling from a black cow.
It’s her calf Jim.
@@FarmerP I didn't realise that the colour could be so different. Thanks.
@@JimWhitaker
Dexters have three colours Jim... Black, Red and Dunn (brown) Black the most common, and Dunn the least. Any colour cow could have any colour calf. The red heifer in this video has a black mum. 🙂👍
Fellow humans, please look at this, and grasp the fact that this is wrong. We don't have to eat meat or drink milk. We have the option to not do harm to our fellow creatures.
While you are quite entitled to your beliefs and ideals, whether I agree with you or not, how you choose to live your life is none of my business. Human kind has spent the last 200'000 years developing and advancing to where we are today, and it was all made possible by a protein rich diet that we exploited from animals, Rather than sit in the jungle eating vegetation all day creating cabbage farts, our enriched diet gave us time to explore and learn, evolution has followed us and with the help of our diet created the modern human. It would be very difficult, and very time consuming to go backwards without the help of world wide vegetation growers and profit greedy processors taking full advantage of your religion. Your ideals although understandable, are also unsustainable, your love of animals is believe it or not shared by meat eaters as well, in many ways we appreciate them even more than the vegan fraternity, many would simply not exist at all if it wasn't for their protein values. Perhaps you should take a little time to work out how and where your vegetable diet comes from, and the processes required to put it on your plate, including the rather large numbers of wild creatures that have to die for it. Unless you grow all your own, with no chemicals and no pest control.... I will count you as one of the hypocrite numpties who prefer to see their world wearing blinkers, or eyes completely shut to the realities that surround them.
Animal proteins are safe, natural, sustainable, healthy and with modern despatch and processing morally justifiable.
As for ear tagging by the way, its a legal requirement to allow traceability... How many piercings did you choose to have?
Ended up with broken elbow over protective cow one time
They can inflict serious life changing injuries, we should never forget that, or do so at our peril.
I won't watch this with headphones on again
I did warn you... 😄👍
🙉🙉🙉
could it be no bull about to protect them
The bull would be less interested, he only want to find the next lady bulling, it’s the cows that you need to watch.
you need to change your horn sound to that cow bellow. That would scare the pants off your girls when they walk in front of the truck.
i think if she could've got close enough she would've bit your head off.
Yah she was a little more than excited she was looking for blood if given the opportunity been there done that dealt with them before no thanks
although its funny how you know there's a solid object protecting you when they bellar and act like that we feel like there's nothing there stopping her for a split second of shear terror and then the sense of relief when you finally remember that your on the other side of a object despite having your heart restarted and second guessing if it actually would hold her back
Yah i think your right if i had to guess it would be to do with late weening and all the extra handling you have had to do this year that is stirring up calf proudness
About the only thing that is more scarry than a mother cow charging is momma bear aka ms'P when one of your daughters is in danger or something ide rather be in same area as a mother grizzly than a unpredictable calf proud cow when you gotta handle her calf and can't just give a wide berth of area
They are big animals, and deserving of much respect Kraig, complacency with cattle will put you in harms way double quick. 🙂👍
👍🤣🇳🇱
Taller gates needed I think.
For a continental breed yes, for a pure Dexter, that would be quite a leap, if you notice, I do the deed behind the gate post too... The strongest point.🙂👍
@@FarmerP we have suffolk red poll not the biggest bit can still clear a gate if they want to. Good idea being behind the post.
