Your comment “still want to be a rancher”? YES! I am 40 years old and everyday of my life I wake up wanting that life. I see hard work with a reward at the end that is tangible. Your father in law saw something special deep inside of you when he left his ranch in your care. I wish there was a place in this world for me like you have on that ranch.

Of course our farm was on a much smaller scale then your ranch but the same on loving this life style. We also had 3,000 layer hens. Lots of egg gathering. I remember helping to pull several calves in my day. Thanks for sharing and showing your love for your cattle.

@wally626v_m7 4 жыл бұрын

There are RF tags that can be used while working the animals, a long range tracker would probably not be cheap light or small enough. Sandi Brook uses them on her sheep.

There are GPS trackers for bees; not commercially available mind. But you can get GPS tags for cats and dogs. Very small and weather proof. But would run the costs for a whole herd of cows and calves.

@wesnr101 4 жыл бұрын

My understanding from the GPS collars you see on dogs and cats is that they have to be charged fairly frequently. With 100 ish cow calf pairs I can see that becoming pretty unwieldy.

As a new subscriber, not long after you started the 30 vlogs/30 days these videos are so stressful for me. Want everything to work out perfectly with the calves and cows, I don't know how you stay so calm and collected. So much respect to the ranchers out there, these videos are entertaining and informative. Faith's mom definitely won't be getting a Mother's day card from me this year, will be thinking about her all day and hoping for the best. Crazy how attached I get to these animals just watching videos for a couple weeks.
