Great educational video, especially if you want to show your children the nature of birthing. Thanks for the upload. Very clear, explained well & very interesting! Thanks again..
Absolutely amazing! 👍 😊 Thank goodness that Lucia finally (with your TLC) accepted the 2nd calf! Must have been totally mind boggling for her, after having given birth, to find a second one! All love, and best wishes, Claire, Berlin 😘 😘 😘 ✌ 👍 👍 👍
I applaud your effort to helping ur animals no matter what others say. I think you did an amazing job in helping the calves figure things out, It's just like when a mom has twins it takes a few days to figure out how and when and get a schedule done for feedings. I loved ur video!
UK operates the British cattle management scheme which requires registration of all cattle. The tag shows the herd number and the beast number for which there will be a passport issued which must follow the beast around on all movements off the holding/farm.
well " nice video of that, and I understand about that cause I helped a cow ones cause she had twins, and to make it easier, do you have any smaller pens or a barn where so you can lock her and her to baby's together.? for the first a couple of days or to. so she can get to know them better, and plus same way for the baby's. so that way it's lass change of losing them in a big open area.?
used to be a beef strain and a dairy - got amalgamated in the 1970s with the number got low. In now combine dairy and beef. more than enough milk. I did unfortunate case of double mastitis with twins and she managed to feed both just off two quarters.
Beautiful story and family. thanks so much.i particularly liked the attention you gave to the whole situation. What part of the south of England are you located in ?
JAMES Rivis Thanks for the comment James. We live in Worcestershire, having recently moved from Lincolnshire - hence the breed of cattle which we brought with us.
This the first time I've seen a cow in pain having calves. I really felt for her while you are so casual never having felt the pain of birthing and finding it interesting instead.
THANKS FOR LET IT HAPPENED NATURAL. THE WAY IT SUPPOSED TO BE. l HAVE SEEN PEOPLE USING iron CHAIN TO PULL THE CALF, but they forggeting this is hurting the calf legs.
She was confused that she had two babies to keep up with, and the babies were not able to latch on to suckle, because her teets were too large for them and were overfull and stiff. He kept having to reunite both babies, and help them latch on to eat. That was the problem
previous video (Duna cow and an explosive calving) had comments disabled so I will post it here. Poor 10 year old cow had been pregnant 14 times. Horrible
sheryl napier . Typical first calving age for cattle is around 2 years. I don't allow mine to calve until they are 3 years old. Cows can then reproduce same frequency as humans - 9 month gestation. Duna then calved annually throwing twins each time. Hence 14 calves.
Why didn't u prepare an inside arrea for Lucinda and the BABIES.? U knew thèm were coming but u left them in the rain and cold. Great farmer.......NOT.! Never seen such neglect for mum and newborn. And yes,, I'm married to a farmer! They SHOULD've been inside before she called and if you don't have a calving she'd.?.... don't bloody calve! Disgusting!
WOW! I have never seen teets that big before!! Great video thanks for sharing!!
Lovely to see how you help the little guys

Very inspiring, informative, natural, and climate-friendly.
I just bought a couple Red Devon cattle and this was very helpful. Thank you!
Them ole cows are mighty gentle with you considerin' they got new calves...nice to see...
Absolutely amazing! 👍 😊

Nancy Duncan Thank you Nancy.
It's good you were there to help cause one probably wouldn't made it ,but I'm glad it made it .nice work
Fantastic video. Wonderful real-life drama
Have you thought about breeding for better udders, with smaller teats? So that calves could latch on easier.
Very nice video. It was very observant.
Beautiful video. How do you create those tags on the ears and what information do they contain? Thank you. Gardis in CT - USA

Man, I am good ! I was thinking Herefordshire cos I went to Hereford High School for Boys from 1954-58 !

He explained that he hadn't
Any idea amount of milk that a Lincoln Red Cow produces? Looks like they might make a good dual purpose family milk cow like the Red Poll.

In now combine dairy and beef. more than enough milk. I did unfortunate case of double mastitis with twins and she managed to feed both just off two quarters.
@@DaveStanleye3 OK Sounds great! Thank you!
@@DaveStanleye3 So Lincoln Reds could produce maybe 2.5 - 3 gallons of milk per day...enough for a calf and an average size family?
lf you don,t take care, the foxes will... so be careful...

It seems someone would be around to see that the twin did not drown.

i only saw one calf being born...did i miss something
Elli Bjerregaard Elli looks as if you did miss having the sound on - where it was explained why you did not see the second calving.
Dave Stanley ja correct I had the sound off...Glad you raise these cattle on grass and they are so lovley.
She beller n' grunt just like a hoomin!!
My cat was oddly calm during this video.
I'm not clear on what (problem?) it was that went on for six days, apparently due to the twin birth? Could you/anyone (briefly) explain, please?

Sheryl be more informed when you talk otherwise you look foolish
