Never a dull moment on the farm
Great viewing
Since I lived in Christchurch NZ and love to see Kiwis they are so kind and nice people, i would like to follow your videos.
Thanks for watching.
Settle petal, love it. She meant business. Glad your safe and sensible. Great little video- tographer there. Wind is so draining, but yes great for drying out and blowing the rubbish away. 🇳🇿
A cow (grieved with calf) will grind you into the ground untill you are no longer a threat.
They are animals.
@@robertmccabe8632 what? I've handled many a cow horned & polled, dairy & beef, with new born calves...not too many of them will have a go at you unless you do something stupid to the calf.
Your right she is protective Mumma
Great video, very enjoyable. Love watching farms on my homeland and brings back wonderful memories of my childhood. "Should have married a farmer" :)
Thanks for watching

It was a good choice of shirt to wear while not getting flattened by that cow "play it safe"
The Cow remembers what you do to the Sheep.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 you’ve gotta be Australian
36 is off to the works now 😆
Another great video guys, thanks for sharing. Please take care of yourself when tagging those calves, that looked sketchy 😬😬. Loved the last shot of the hoggets reaction to you as you were counting them out, nice camera angle. Keep up the great work. 😁💪
Thanks mate. Yea got to be on your game tagging calves at birth.
Great video Alastair 👌
Keep up the great work 👍
Another great video! Keep up the great work
Thanks mate.
Be carful with that mama cow brother.. Safety first
Love the video
Great Video, Including the family has improved the depth of the experience, especially your daughter explaining the "nor wester" please pass on my comments to me! the other thing that i appreciated was the old double ended shearing grinder! good to see some 50 years later, well done
Thanks very much.
Mate great video and you have a amazing farm
Thanks Mate.
Good! That’s the kind of cow you need! In my area anyway with all the predators we have
man you are living my dream of tending a flock of herd and on grassy green plains. Good job btw
Thanks very much. Its a good but hard life.
Great video ‘team’. Seems your camera folk are doing a great job. Snow is due…..good luck with the lambs.
They are getting pretty good.
Awesome mate! Subscribed
Thanks
Love your content bro, look forward to seeing you reach 1 million subs!
Thanks Mate. Here's hoping.
@@kiwifarmernz It will happen, definitely. Best of luck with the calves bud, fingers crossed for a good yield this year, hopefully our weather will play ball.
@@gavsfishing5461 Thanks Mate. snowing here at the moment but it will pass.
@@kiwifarmernz yea, there's not too much moisture in this.
wow amazing video. keep up making such videos. love from kashmir
Thanks mate.
Great video. Just wondering if you watched country calendar last night and talking about regenerative agriculture. As you were asking the question about it a few videos back . Be interesting to see what you thought about there idea's
Hey Brendon, just finished watching it. The all grass wintering is interesting, defiantly something for us to look into. its a whole system change to less intensive farming.
@@kiwifarmernz was interesting how they talked about it helping to cut down feeding out time over winter . Will look forward to following your videos to see if you do try some of the ideas and get your thoughts on it
G'day mate
I sometimes help my brother tagging but carry a dropper , and some we bring into a yard because they are nuts, she's not bluffing
Great video amazing to see how the yards have dried out so quickly do you keep those stroppy cows or do you get rid of them by breeding it out
Thanks. It's dried out heaps with a bit of norwest wind. We keep a close eye on cows like that. If they have a go at me in the yards they will be culled.
Thanks 🙂
Have fun trying to tag the calf with mother cow right their she is protecting her calf
Beautiful bro👍.., I like theese farming always, I'm jealousy to you 😀😍.. all th best....
Thanks Mate.
What a good mum👍
Funny since our cows have more balls in protecting its young than our current government in protecting itself own people...,
My neighbour got flattened by a cow recently when he got to close to the calf. Was lucky to survive. Squashed him against a tree. Some nasty bruising and a few sore days.
Yea I've been run over once a few years back. She's is gone now.
@@kiwifarmernz, there was a bloke not far from you that had a tragic outcome when moving a Highland bull a few years back.
@@allanrowland130 yep he was our neighbour. Just over the fence from where the cows are calving. Very sad.
Why drench Rams hardly for worms ??
@@cormacpower104 just a preventive. Small amount of money to keep them healthy, also has some minerals in it,
Interesting
Hi, how many acres do you have.?
Great videos.
Thanks about 1540 acres or 625 Ha
Its only once in 35 years of calving that I've felt uneasy with a cow and its new born calf. I placed the quad bike between them before tagging the calf. Probably beef cattle been more isolated in the back blocks with less human contact could cause more incidents of stroppy mums?
We haven't tagged at birth before, so its new for the cows as well as me.
Not necessarily. We had Hereford cross that were worked with daily and yet one had a calf in the dead of winter and I couldn't get near the calf. Took my Dad along to keep the cow off me and we got mother and calf safely in the warm barn. The only time we had a difficult cow.
Is that protective cow pure Angus? I thought they were supposed to be user friendly. We have a variety of breeds and have yet to get one being difficult. Although that could change as we have a Murray Grey due next month. They are supposed to be very stroppy with calf at foot. Also had an interesting sheep problem at the weekend. Had a hogget suffer Ring Womb over Thursday night. Nothing could be done and she has joined the circle of life this morning.
Yea generally they are pretty good. I have never tagged at birth so it's new to them. What is ring womb?
@@kiwifarmernz, the ewe goes in labour but the cervix won't dilate. She pushes out the lining and placenta but not the lambs. They die and in due course so does she as the lambs rot inside.
Thats rough. Dont think we have had that but i will keep an eye out for it now.
Pull up by the claf on your side by side and grab it put it in your side by side and tag it put the tag on it
What time is new Zealand
9am Monday morning
How many 🐑 do have on your farm
Lambing about 1400 this year.
Que lindo lugar! Es N. Z?
Gracias, sí lo es, Isla Sur.
Well done and well said! This brings back memories of King Country farming in 1970 before prissy political wankers. bathed in wokery, began their Gretchen Thumburg-like loud screeching tirades against the very people who feed them. They're festering hypocrites all.
Burgers ASAP!!!!!!!!
Where is this based at
Oxford, New Zealand
@@kiwifarmernz oh wow that's cool I'm down south
show us what you have for lunch bro
I,d be careful hopping over them fences.
Haha yep make sure you jump.
Do Kiwi farmers ever use tagasaste?
What is that?
@@kiwifarmernz "Tagasaste has been variously called tree lucerne, false tree lucerne and lucerne tree in Australia. For the sake of uniformity, tagasaste is preferred.
Tagasaste is a shrub or small tree growing to a height and crown diameter of about 5 m, often with long, drooping, leafy branches."
It's used a lot by Aussie cattle and sheep ranchers. It does well in dry climates and is a nitrogen fixer with 18% protein, with no danger of bloat fed green. I'm surprised you don't know about it.
@@elizabethblane201 I know about tree lucerne. We have it growing here and it's quite common in NZ. We are planting more each year.
@@kiwifarmernz Oh, cool. Do your livestock browse it?
@@elizabethblane201 no only if it grows over the fences. The bees and birds love it tho.
When Georgia said, “ It goes bad, kinda bad,not bad.....bad, kinda bad,not bad....” I thought she was talking about farming in general !😂
Just started buying a few store lambs...£76. Not too sure how jobs gonna be as people are going to struggle to buy electricity over here.
Not sure what our leaders are playing at....It’s a bit like your cow at the start.....Crazy🙂
Yep it could of been about farming. It is crazy times for everyone, not just farmers
🐄🐄🐄🖐️🌞🖐️
I thought Jab-cinda didn't like farmers.
I don't think she does. She just needs us.
Probably shouldn't keep replacements from her anyway?
What is the wool off the rams worth Alistair. Not much 👎☹️
Na bugger all.
Man, wind like that makes your ears ring even when you're inside after working all day in it. Miserable.
Yep it's hard on the body. If I'm working in it I sometimes wear earmuffs
shes not crazy shes angus no cow would ever threaten me like that lobotomy paddock
Do you never get cold with just wee shorts on lol
Some times I wear pants. As long as the top half is warm.
Stop mumbling and use a micrphone
Just turn your hearing aids up.
I wish you would talk more plainly
Why is that Grant, what cant you understand?
I’m sorry but farming is so cruel
Thanks for your comment, everyone is entitled to their opinion.
