- My name is Carson Sleep, I’m 23 years old and am a 6th generation rancher on the Sleep Ranch.
Our ranch is located in the Northern Black Hills on the South Dakota/ Wyoming border where my family settled and started ranching in 1883.
I work alongside my parents, Jeff and Jodi, our ranch hand, Jaques, and my wife, Damaris who also works as a nurse in town. We have friends and family who come along very frequently as well!
We run a cow/calf operation where we summer our cattle on the Black Hills National Forest and winter them in the foothills of the Black Hills. We also have a backgrounding feedlot, and grow alfalfa and grass hay.
To God be the Glory

"So, what do ya call three ranchers on a 4 wheeler hauling fence wire in the rain...." Yup, sounds like the beginning of a mighty fine rancher joke. Hahahaha!!
😂😂😂
Great job guys love ur videos
Thanks Shane!
Greetings from Wisconsin!
Your comment while looking for nuggets in the creek reminded me that about 40 years ago we spent some time between the Badlands and Custer. At one of the tourist traps I was looking for gifts for family and I found hats that I blew my cheapo budget on but they were too good to miss for my beloved farmer-uncles back home.
The hats were all imprinted "I won a couple million in the Lottery. We're gonna keep farming until I spend it all!" It was worth every penny to see the grins on those wonderful faces, especially when one uncle laughed, choked and swallowed a bit of his 'working' Copenhagen.
I told him loved him to death but if he went down it was gonna cost him 2 sides of processed beef and the gorgeous old John Deere still on steel wheels for to even consider doing CPR on him. That's when he swallowed the rest of it.
You guys are just too cool, every one of you. Stay safe.
Haha that’s an awesome story and an awesome hat you found! Thanks Petty!
Another great video. 👍
Thanks John!
Beautiful day to move cows….I think I can almost smell the fresh air up…..Those calves are beauties… Great to see that nice green pasture….The horses are so pretty: except they didn’t want to do their job today…..Love to hear the rain sprinkling on you guys… Have a great day…Talk soon…
Thanks Deb! Take care!
...lookin' good, stay safe and have a good one..
Thanks Bob, you too!
Nice video. I like the scenery and cattle
Thanks George!
I’ve always wanted to drive cattle on horseback. I know it’s a usual thing for y’all but thank you for letting me live a dream thru your eyes and video. You three guys always bring a smile to me. Even when I think I don’t have many smiles left , your videos always get me thru. Such beautiful land and creeks.
Well thank you for joining us Janet! Take care!
Great job getting them through the tunnels. As usual a great video. Thank You for sharing this with us. 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching David!
You should introduce each ranch horse, name, breed, history, talents, special notes. :)
That’s a great idea Patty!
Calves are looking great!
Thanks Morrie!
We have a tunnel here in Chino Valley, Arizona that goes under Hwy 89! Cattle and antelope use it! That cow wasn’t kicking to hard getting that wire off! I’m sure you know she could lay it to you! Lol! Cool family!
Oh yea for sure! Thank you!
Sure is nice scenery. I could see camping out by the old building, that would have been fun when I was a teen. The bull was staying back to watch all of his babies made it ok, lol. Spent many days fencing, I enjoyed it when I was younger. Thanks for taking the time to video this, it was fun to watch, comedy show and scenery. Stay safe and healthy
Thanks Badger, I’m sure you made some great memories and have some great stories!
Sure is Beautiful country
Thanks Michael!
I totally agree with you about keepin on ranching. It seems like a good life. The backbone of our country.
The grass is so green now. It’s beautiful scenery.
Thanks for sharing Carson.
That’s for watching Donna!
4 wheels are great but sometimes old fashion horse ridding is the best.
Great video, always nice to see the herding of cattle on horseback. Looks like the 3 of you had quite the ride going through that creek on the four wheeler. Glad your dad didn't end up going into the creek. That was a good line by Jacque "Come on bull get your but in there".
Thanks Ben! It was a good line haha
I love these videos lots of a variety. I thought what you said about quiet and peaceful. Wait to the little one comes. You will enjoy the quiet and peacefulness more. But it it is all in fatherhood. I believe that is way my dad always said. I'm go to fix fence now when I was acting up. Lol putting that mildly. Great video. Till next time. God Bless all.
Thanks Margaret! Yeah you are right about that! Haha it will be a lot of fun though! Take care and God Bless!
The fact that y’all don’t mind the feces nor smell is amazing
Got quite a kick out of listening to you three crossing that stream. Love these videos. Great job!!!
Thank you Lynn!
That was a fun video mixing work and horses and cattle. Missing ur cowboy hat
Thanks Bill, I am haha
Bet it was a bugger-dog pushing cattle thru that tunnel the very first time!
Oh yes!
That Creek crossing was épíc
Been binge watching some past videos. Happy Anniversary!
Thank you!
I didn't know you were a team roper I roped about forty years ago glad to see a new video be safe brother😊
Just found your channel. I'm a farm hand in Ireland. It's just like here when you go mending fence lines it rains. I've never been on a horse. But they sure are good for moving cattle .
Thanks for checking us out Edward! Hope things are well in Ireland
Looks like it's still a little cool out there, it's 88 here in Tennessee today. I love seeing you Mom and Damaris help out, they are pretty good cowgirls! Let me know if I spelled her name wrong!
You spelled it perfect Ken! Thank you and take care out there!
Real cowboys! Love it! Why don’t you use whistles?
Thanks Kathleen! We could, just easier to use our mouths haha
Looks like paradise where y’all live
Thanks Justin!
Hey Carson,
Looks like everything is going good for you
I was really worried your dad was going to get bit by that barbwire crossing the Creek,glad he didn't. It's very pretty up there, it didn't look like the fences were to bad which is surprising with elk around, the deer were hard on my fences this past winter did a lot of fencing this spring.
Oh ya the deer can be tough on the fences and the elk can be in spots as well! Hope you got it all done and it wasn’t too bad of a project! Take care!
Great video!!
Thanks Jason!
Another great video, l enjoy watching everyone work cattle, have some fun as you work. I see Jaques got a hat, lol.
Haha thanks Ellis!
Great video as always. Great scenery Just a observation with poncho It looks to me that some one has hit him in the face at one time. That is why maybe he is a little head shy. Slow and easy moves around his head mostly in time get him out of this but head shy can be a slow process.
Yeah that could be Robert! Slow and easy will be good anyway!
Thanks for bringing back some memories of the good times I had with my grandfather, moving cattle and mending fence. He would move the cattle up to the same area. I remember an area he called "seventy flats ".is there such a place that you know of?
I sure do! We still run our cattle up there and we’re fixing fence there the other day
Enjoyed the video. Is this the summer pasture or will you move them again.
Thanks Guy, nope we will bring them to the forest service permits in a couple of weeks
Putney VT their is a farm with same set up gorgeous farm one one side of road and gorgeous pasture on other side of road
The wire is what they used to fix an airliner. Must’ve fell off over SD.
That is sooo beautiful up there! It's what my dreams are made of. Do you hunt elk up there? I've always wanted to hunt the Black Hills
Need a cushier seat for dad next time
Loved the quiet. Don’t hear that very much. None of you seemed to have guns for wild animals or snakes. Do you not run into snakes and bears mountain lions etc?
We do sometimes, we carry chainsaws most the time so we use those as our self defense haha
Do you see many elk? Nice to see you got another shower.
Thanks! Yeah we see them pretty often!
Question: Why do they make so much noise when you are moving them.?
Some of them get split up from their calf or mom so they make noise, others just do it because the rest are
U should sell sleep ranch mech hats and such
Good idea Larry, I’ll get on that!
Please put the sleep ranch logo in the middle of the front of the hat. Hats look lopsided when they r not centered.
Why no cattle dogs??? wouldnt that make your herding a bit easier?
I don’t get the video at all. It says “No Stream”
I’ll look into it! Thanks!
@@sleepranch I love the way the older cows take the way and lead the rest. How long does it take to get the younger ones to learn? Nice bunch of calfs. Jac does a nice job getting the wire off. Thank God it was not real bad. She walk it out. Jac turning out to be quite the rancher. An age of a horse doesn't mean anything . 28 years is just the starting into his prime. My dads horse, work horse cross, live well in to his 50s. He was toothless in the end. Still big and strong and only ridden by the grandchildren. He was the babysitter. We put Prince in the pen and throw the 3 kids up on his back. And walk away while we did chores. I thought your dad was going to come off at one point and Jac met have to get off to push. But all was well. Great seeing the green fields and wildlife. Have a good day and God Bless your whole family and Jac. Thank you.
It works now
well its not the Sheep ranch
Aussie Try droving 2,500 head sheep 150 miles
1970s the last big droving job as a lad on horseback the sheep they went in every broken fence hole & railway line .
Cattle were more easier to move about the huge farm
Bucket of cow pellets they follow you :) rattle rattle moo moo
I bet that was difficult! Sounds like a fun time!
Ar thay the black hills of the lakota.
Yep they are!
I thought all three of you would end up in the stream.
No sound
I’ll check on it, thank you!
U need wash out the trailer sometimes
How did s my horse Trump doing just saying
He’s doing great!
Having grown up on a farm, I thought this would be interesting but the stupidest opening clip I have ever seen changed my mind about subscribing, to say nothing of watching. I learned about 5 years old to respect barbed wire, it is not a huggable material, especially on something that is moving and over rough terrain. Good God, 23 years old yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Understandable! Thanks for checking out the video! You’re right but sometimes you have to do what you have to do with what you’ve got as I’m sure you know growing up on a farm! No one got hurt and the job got done with a little fun!
think if you found a gold nugget you would have probably a 1000 people up there panning that stream
I think you’re right!
trump is being a brat 😂😂😂😂
