The discussion with your vet was very interesting. I’ll be watching for more. Thanks for sharing.

...it's always a long cold winter,...lol... good one, keep safe and warm...

I have a degree in beef production and management. I’m really enjoying the conversation with the vet. It’s been a long time since I delved into that at the detail that he is going into; however, I’m glad you guys are looking at it. I don’t have enough cattle right now to Get to close into that data. Surprisingly, I just passed your ranch on I 90 not too long ago.

Genetic piece was great! The more consumers can understand the effort that goes into producing a quality product the better!

All the DNA results are so fascinating… amazing what it allows you to understand..

I was waiting for Clint Eastwood to show up when you flew the drone! Lol ! We raised a lot of angus and Holsteins!

More great drone footage! Cows look content after that feed wagon goes by!

Hello Sleep Ranch! Just subbed tonight and really enjoying the videos that I’ve seen. I’ll be taking over my family’s 200 acre cattle farm in North West Louisiana in the next few years so I’ve got A LOT to learn FAST. Looking forward to watching and learning! 🇺🇸💯🦅🤙🏼

The AgBoost information was really interesting ! I love the tagline..from conception to consumption. The information is invaluable to producing not only healthy and economical beef, but choice beef. I love how the video shows the efforts your family goes through to produce good stock. Well done video !

Happy Thanksgiving to all your family & ranch hands. 🦃🦃🦃🦃🦃

The DNA talk was amazing. Great video.

No snow down here but we have been in the 30* all last week. Very interesting add of the genetic information. Keep up the good work and the drone view was excellent the music 🎵 very good Carson

That genetics testing is quite the deal, maybe we need this kind testing at the Whitehouse sure would solve alot of problems, Have a great Thanksgiving

I'm planning on a long cold winter. Several things I've seen are saying it's gonna get to 40 below

I quit the cowboy trade back in the late 80's in the S.E. Oregon S.W. Idaho Region. It was still 1880's technology so to see this is almost Science Fiction to me.This is great. Wish it had been around back then. Still have to get out in the blizzard to take care of the cows though. Somethings don't change a whole lot.

I really like the DNA and genetic testing and the huge amount of information that comes with those tests.. If possible do more of them.

Good video I enjoyed it 👍 stay warm and safe.

Good day folks! They say a woman’s work is never done, but I think a Rancher’s work is never done also. Keep warm and the drone shots really make me realize how big of an operation you all have! 😊

I thought we were doing a good job with our cattle until I saw your video - wow!!! I wish I was closer bc I would love some of your replacement heifers!!!

Hi Carson, it was interesting to hear about what factors go into how tender the meat is from the cows. After seeing videos of you working out in the cold and snow it was good to see you all talking around the table in a nice warm house. Hope this cold and snow now is not a sign for the Winter to come. Enjoyed the drone footage of the feeding and seeing the snow patches on the backs of the cows.

THANKS!

Interesting information about managing the cows, calves and the way things like eating and weight gain and the quality of the meat. There’s nothing like setting down to what looks like a nice juicy ribeye and cut into it to find the stringiest toughest piece of meat you’ve ever had to deal with! This was interesting. Thanks for sharing Sleep Ranch!

I know many of the friends here may not want to see as much info about the genetics and impacts of all that but WOW! I sure would!! Really eye opening! Thanks for sharing what info you guys have found out so far. We had a few days here with 15-20 below zero wind chills and I was hoping you didnt get hit with that too badly. Hope you all have a beautiful Thanksgiving together with blessings abundant!

Awesome drone footage Carson

Wow!!!!!! Love that music for the drone shots!!! Brrrr it’s looks brutally cold!!! Hope you’re wife is staying in and warm…I’m sure she’ll be glad to have that little one…We are all excited for that little one!! Have a great day!!! Stay warm and safe..

Clear as mud.

Informative & interesting video @Carson. Didn’t get to view it right away, day later & wowee you had lots of viewers, good to see your channel growing! Always love the drone footage & music 🎶👍 Happy Thanksgiving 🍁😊

Thanks for sharing that

Great video Carson

Awesome video! We really enjoy watching your videos. True wholesome Americana.

I'm sure you'll get some great prices for your beef, and thanks for posting

Hope you guys have a nice piece of beef for Thanksgiving.

It’s amazing how far DNA has come. Fascinating video. Thanks for sharing.

Took my Uncle Dean almost 2 decades before he got his Angus Cert

Super video

Corn on the cob works great ! For what yal doin

I’m learning things I had no idea. I have a lot of respect for you guys. It’s great how you care for the cattle even through tough times. The music reminds me of a Clint Eastwood movie. 👍❤️🇺🇸

GREAT INFORMATION

Thanks Carson the fenetic discssion. Very interesting! Happy Thankgiving to you and all your Family.

Hey brother. Thanks for another great video. I must say the drone shots of the pens in the snow. We’re an amazing. Lots of awesome information about the traits you’re looking for. I’m really getting excited for the baby to soon be here. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family including Jacques of course. May God bless you all. As always your brother in Christ.

Very interesting DNA information.

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you get a baby for Thanksgiving!

Happy thanksgiving sleep ranch

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your family, God Bless!!

Happy Thanksgiving! God bless

Brother the Drone shots are epic! Blessings to you and Damaris and the junior Roper that's on the way, have a great Thanksgiving and Fellowship I'm thankful for you allowing us a small Peak into your family's life. 🙏

Interesting what you can do with a blood sample. Can really help make decisions on what heifers to keep for replacements. Now if that translates to a better price for your calves when you sell.....

Good info

Yes Happy Thanksgiving to you all, looking forward to hearing about the arrival of the little one!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. What a tool, it can really help you decide what bulls you need for the future. I found all of it very interesting- stay warm and safe

I don't know what it cost for that analysis of your herd, but I do know that it can be money well spent! As you do your breeding next year please keep us abreast with what you are changing. Very interesting!

Dam, that looks frozen assed cold out there, when the snow doesn't melt on the cows backs. Don't miss that side of ranching one bit, sitting in front of the fire with a whiskey and a steak dinner. Enjoy team. My nephew is a Ringer/cowboy on one of the largest Cattle Stations in Australia, enjoying his gap year before starting an Engineering degree. He sent some pics the other week, it 35 degrees celius up in the Northen Australian outback and he's loving it. He has 6 Australian Stock horses in his string. One for each of the working days, they get Sundays off. He's working on the bull operation, each year they turn out over 4000 bulls. yep that's right. They run a composite breed of bosindicus/bostorous which looks a bit like a red Angus/Santa cross, with performance figures up there in their tropical north suitable for all global markets, live, boxed, Asia, US and local steakhouse. Out there running on ranches larger than Texas, if they can't give birth, they die, so they breed for smaller birth weights but rapid growth with a sale age between 2 to 3 years depending on which market and if they go into the lot for finishing. Staggering size and production numbers.

The music with the drone was a great selection. The drone section never disappoints. The DNA was interesting. Would like to have spittle more independent explanation.

👏 Interesting. The stock look great. from Australia😊

Nice music 🎶

Love the science side of ranching Happy Thanksgiving to you all hope you also raised a few turkeys along with all those cows

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your whole family, including Jacque

Happy Thanksgiving!! Stay warm, loved the video, also enjoyed the guy explaining the report.

Hope your holiday is quit and safe.

Wow watching more of your video I Googled the different breeds of cattle & apparently for a lay person understanding the DNA test the choice steak I want is Angus. Please tell me if I’m wrong. Amazing how science has evolved. Thanks guys. Btw, I truly love steak & rib eye is our choice when we can afford it but seeing what’s involved for you guys, I’m willing to pay more. Awesome video. ❤

Excellent video Carson. I'm amazed at how much DNA can tell us

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. It was very interesting to see all the DNA stuff and how you breed for what you want out of your cows and calfs. Thank you for sharing your day to day life with us.

Hi Carson thanks again for a interesting video. Discussing a bit on birth weight. I went to a Angus Bull sales a couple of years ago and a Angus Stud master opened the sale. Discussing traits on what bulls to select. At the time low birth weights was a popular topic as commercial cattlemen were endeavouring to achieve ease of calving. The stud manager made at comment I have always kept in mind. Continual selection of bulls for low birth weight can lead to producing animals that may loose other desirable traits like carcass to live weight percentage and smaller eye muscle as a example. To concentrate on one trait can leed to diminished results in other desirable traits. A realistic acceptance of a good selection of desirable traits rather than going overboard on a single trait is I feel a good management practice. From Down Under

I like the science and genetics part too. That was interesting information and am wondering how you'll make changes due to this report.

That was pretty interesting info on the genetics. Definitely helps you in different factors. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. God bless all of you.

Sending you Happy Thanksgiving wishes from our part of NC. This reminds me of our cold days we lived at Minot AFB, ND. We lived there 4 years. I am so proud of you all. Hard to work when you are cold and your hands are freezing.

fantastic video very educational

Happy Thanksgiving. Love your videos. Lee them coming.

Happy thanksgiving to you and your family trying to incorporate your parents on the videos I like when they’re participating and you have group of professionals on the cattle industry the best videos

That was really interesting thanks for sharing Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours🦃🦃🦃

Happy Thanksgiving!❤️❤️❤️❤️

I sure enjoy watching your videos but I do believe grinding that corn will pay off in the long run

I learn so much from your videos and great music, by the way!

Love the content keep up the good work

Interesting. I sent 2 jersey Bulls off they came back with no fat (lard) and minimal marbling but the meat literally melts Under the fork/knife and taste delicious!

Another great video, very interesting that not just the bottom line all the other factors that go into raising cows and always enjoy drone footage and music was great !

Very very interesting.Thank you for sharing. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Very interesting video, I’d like to see what changes you’ve made or are making to your cattle. I love watching your videos.. Happy thanksgiving to you and your family

Happy Thanksgiving to yall, the DNA testing is very interesting. I'm amazed at what they can do in a lab now days. I worked with a vet in the late 70's and early 80"s doing embryo transfer. I really enjoyed it.

Enjoyed the video very much sir. As a cattleman myself I would love to learn more about the testing that they were discussing. I have known about it for a long time but never really knew how I could apply it to real life operations. Thanks again.

It sure will be

Happy Holidays where is yalls Ranch my family has a Ranch in phillip south Dakota the CP BAR RANCH

Happy Thanksgiving Carson, Damaris, Jeff, Jodi, Jaques & TRUMP!!!!! (a nice carrot for Trump would be most appreciated) Very interesting about the works of your ranch... Love & Peace

Very interesting video on DNA , I would be interested in what changes you will make based on the results, have a happy and safe thanksgiving 😀

Hmm ag boost is interesting, almost want to try that on my small herd.

Carson that was very intresting. I have small herd of 10 purebred red Devins I changed up my breeding bull to a purebred carhley bull this coming calves should be interesting I would love to see how they compare. Happy Thanksgiving can't wait for your little one great holiday gift to your family to enjoy

Great video! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!! I love BEEF!!!!

Very interested in hearing more on the dna testing. Great info!

The DNA results are fascinating. I wonder how much better the market value is by using DNA results compared to having no DNA data.

What TMR mixer are you running? We’re looking for one for our confined lambing operation. I’ve been looking at Meyers and Vermeer.

feedin’ cows while eatin’ cows.

Another great video Carson. Interesting to see how you background your calves . Do you retain ownership through the finishing feedlot ? If not , does the genetic testing help market your calves ?

It would be interesting to know what the DNA results are for Wagyu beef compared to other beef types. I wonder if the DNA markers for taste and tenderness are really no different from what you get for US prime beef.

The genetic information was very interesting. I would like to learn more if you want to make a video.

I personally enjoy the genetics discussion. It interesting to see what your working with or against. Also after sitting down with the genetics rep, do you recognize the traits in your cattle or do you second guess some of the information to be correct?

I found the dna very interesting.

Can you see Bear Butte from your ranch?

Darn!! You're getting clobbered pretty good already with winter conditions. We're cold but without the snow....good & bad. Cold sure increases feed consumption as you well know. Awesome that your family is so interested in DNA testing. So much information to be gleaned from those results and like your Dad said a great tool for future bull buying and so much more.

Hi carson does the cattle and smaller ones digest the corn 🌽 no problem or does some of the grain pass through them also do you have any problems with the cattle in open pens with no shelter eg chills etc thanks also enjoy your thanksgiving with your family!!

Forgive all my comments, but this video made me realize that there are many different ways to raise cattle for different purposes which seems obvious, but the DNA stats emphasized this for me.
