15:34 😂 love that

That building is going to work great! Thanks taking us along on the journey of the building!😄

Great looking system. Plenty of room and ventilation. Much happier and healthier cattle. Keep .up the great management.

Congratulations and thanks for bring us along for the ride. Now its done, didn't seem like it took very long to put up the barn.

maybe some strong magnet to hold those gates open at the back of the barn, then you can do it one handed.

New Barn is way better than the old. .can’t wait for more and I’m in joying the new 10th Gen shirt , everyone go buy one !

Great looking barn. This is a time to preserve and keep the memory close by and locked up. Regarding the interior gates, an old friend used repurposed garage door springs to help close certain gates. Congratulations to you all on the barn!

Love the curiosity of cows with something new. Another family in our 4-H club pastured their herd across the road, moved them twice a day for milking. The county came along, slightly widened the road and re-pave it. First time, the cows would not cross it. Solution, spread some straw on the road and across the road they went. I really like the thought that went into the details with the gates, excellent planning.

These gates between pens looks great because they work in several places hope they don't get bent. I'm worried they're too low mounted because bedding gets bigger faster than you think. That's only thing we regret after building for young calf

Great to see you moving into the new barn. It looks really nice and efficient. Cows waste no time breaking in the new barn with poop lol. Making themselves right at home. So happy that your project was successful. Thanks for sharing.

If you load a spreader with straw you’ll love that a lot more, trust me. Also those gates are durable. We’ve had numerous ones ram it and it gets kinda jammed but they don’t bend. The heifers sometimes get there head stuck in between the gates also. Barn looks awesome though! You’ll love it

It's a young cow jam😂 I love that you think to put the mat down as they are getting out of the trailer🥰

The moos in the time lapse footage is hysterical. Got a good laugh out of that for some reason.

Great see the final product and the move-in.

Awesome heifer facility! You guys need a bedding chopped for your tractor and you can blow it right in through that back wall. That's how we bed heifers in a similar barn. It works great because we never have to drive in the pens to bed.

Those are some fine looking calves. They’ll love the new barn once they get used to it. Cows are always a little unsure about new things.

That's a smart idea putting the angle iron to protect the corners of the posts.

13:45 made me laugh "Oh, look at that, Bessie's first poo in her new home!" The girls look like they love the new place. Thank you for sharing the journey, Eric.

Your dad could play soccer with that Kubota.

I think that the cows are going to love the new Barn

Great job moving the heifers. You and your dad make it look so easy. The Great new barn looks fantastic.

The gates look very nice, especially that they can expand.

I didn't know Crocs made a farmer shoes. Crocs, shorts and manure! My Hero! May God bless you and your farm.

This is awesome and it’s so well deserved. Good job Eric.

I love the new shed. Well thought out. Why didn't we think more intelligently 50 years ago? Maybe I could still be dairy farming today. Awesome video and I could be watch those calves jump and kick their little legs all day. So cool. Thanks for sharing.

And just like that, it’s a full barn. Many congrats.

Very impressive shed. It’s nice to see how you guys do it over the pond to over here in the uk

Awesome to see it done and move-in day! Thanks for keeping us in the loop, was interesting to watch the progress. Congrats! Looks great!

COOL ERIC,NEW BUILDING,WELL DESERRVED,CHEERS TO BOTH FAMILIES MATEY,GNZ

Congratulations on moving into the new barn, a milestone you will remember for the rest of your life.

I'm thinking those slide latches aren't going to have much of a life expectancy. Bet those cows enjoy their new ventilation! Congrats y'all!

Great building, heifers are happy, greetings from Poland

That's going to be easy to scrape out with the gates like that

I’m looking forward to seeing the results of the ash content between the samples from the alfalfa from the two different windrowers

loving ur dads safety boots lol very aussie style

Fantastic barn. A lot of neat features. If the cows appear to be bending the larger gates separating the pens, cut holes in the concrete and sink a sleeve that you can drop a removable post into to act as a support for the the gates against the weight of cows pushing against them. When post is removed to clean the pens, fabricate a small piece of pipe with a flat piece of steel on top, then drop the small pipe into the sleeve and the flat piece of steel will prevent manure from dropping into the hole.

Got my new hat in the mail today. THANKS! The barn looks great with calves in it.

I Ordered My Hat on Wednesday and Received it on Saturday. Your Sisters Are Doing it Right !! The Barn Looks Amazing!! :)

Glad you guys are into your new building. Thank you for taking us along on this project. My wife and I didn't miss an episode. I like the way you and your dad coordinate the cutoffs and T - shirts. Did you plan it that way? God bless.

Congratulations Eric! You and your dad look very happy as you should. Awesome looking design.

I LOVE the gate design in the new barn! So wonderful to be able to clean out and bed up in one go!

tip for cutting the round bales open, its easier to cut them in the front and not in the back, that way you dont have that much net under the straw ;)

There are ceramic tiles where the feed is placed in the old barn but not in the new barn. What is the thought behind that?

Really amazing, you’re already done with it. He looks so good and very comfortable for the cattle. Congratulations on that

Just received my new 10th merch today. Love the hat and tshirt…

Dad doing that in crocs is amazing 😂

Awesome. The cows 🐄 in time will appreciate the new comforts of living on a farm. Best wishes

Think of how easy it'll be to clean out the bed pack area when that time comes, just open the entire thing up and go

Very nice building. To bad it won't always stay this clean.

I built a new heifer shed 3 years ago and the day we moved the heifers out of the old dilapidated facilities to the new one with clean concrete and shiny headlocks was such a rewarding day... looks like a first class facility

The Amish are extremely talented craftsman! You have a beautiful new building there!! Congratulations to you and the laid back dude in the Crocs!!

Congratulations! It looks so nice and everyone seems happy in their new home. Will there be curtains on the sides like the other barn?

Congrats! will you cover the new barn for the sides to protect from rain and snow?

13:47 I'll be honest - I was waiting to see who would christen the new barn.

9th Generation Dairyman out there in the crocs like a real savage. Nice. 6:30 Riding on the trailer he's a mad man! Should write that first calves number down. She was the first to move in your new barn!

That is definitely a 5 STAR heifer hotel! Good job Eric & Dad.😃👍

Soooo wonderful , it worked out beautiful,,hahaha, you guys have the patience of job...they loved it,,,''hey works good'',,walking great on it,,,we are so happy for you.. congratulations

Sure been nice having that building back in the day, congratulations!! Enjoyed the video,thx….

Awesome barn, enjoy working the cows in a nice looking place

13:35 she has a white heart on her face, awee!! Great building and setup y'all! Will y'all salvage the metal works and other useable stuff from the old barn? Blessings y'all! AWEE I never thought I would like sugars from a heifer but Oh My Heaven, anytime babies, anytime!

Condratulations on your new barn!

Congratulations! Hope everything works out!

Congratulations on getting the latest generation livestock into the new barn. It looks like a great building that may serve your purpose for years to come.

Awesome. I would fill the slurry pit halfway with water so u wont get material stuck in there.

The wait is finally over. Watching from 🇯🇲

As far as moving heifers goes. That went really smooth

One of my favorite Vlogs on KZfaq. Takes me back to childhood

Looks fantastic- they did a great job.

Can tell dad has been doing it a long time. Wearing CROCKS in the 💩 manure haha. He's a real farmer

A thing to try that we do, is have your bale grinder guy, grind up some bedding bales then load in spreader and drive through. It's what we do for dry cows with cornstalks

7:20 first heifer lands and says "Am I the first one here? I smell nothing I like. This is not normal Eric. What have you done here? Oh wait fresh bedding. Whoopee!

A wrap around snowmobile pull starter handle would fit above the finger rings of the gate latch pins and make a grip release style...my favorite because my Poncho, my donkey, couldn't get it open. He did defeat the traditional chain link on a squiggly round stock one... with his tongue. He was eventually apprehended hiding out in the garage, doorknobs were no problem, cleaning his teeth with hockey pucks.

I was so happy when this video came out,love from Belize 🇧🇿🇧🇿

A very nice barn and comfortable for the animals, well done 👍👍👌🙂

Congrats. Iv been watching for a while and love to see the expansion to the farm. Harvest is coming quick also. I’d love a mother video on how the crops are coming along. Thanks for the entertainment lol.

Woah, that barn filled up pretty quick Eric, but those heifers look content. Thanks Eric🤙🏼

It’ll never be that clean again, ever! Best of luck with it. I can also see a bale shredder being quite the asset in bedding up that barn.

Congratulations on your new barn

Congratulations, your hard work and dedication has moved into a new cow barn. I love it when a plan comes together.

Remember, this will be the cleanest this barn will ever be

Nice setup guys. Are you going to build something when you tear the old one down?

Always exciting to move cows to a new place, wether is a barn or pasture. Congrats on your new building, looks great

What a great upgrade to the farm! I like how you can herd them into the scrape alley without having to mix them up when cleaning.

How exciting to see the heifers moved into the new barn. Swing gates: check; bedding procedure: check with modifications to be determined; floor slats: operationally tested satisfactory. It’s all good my friend. The barn looks outstanding and the moos seem to really enjoy it. Typical cows though. If you don’t want them to do something like leave a field. Sure as shootin’ they bust down or go through a fence. Same with walking on the new slat floor. Lol Very happy for you folks. Take care & stay safe. Cheers PS there’s a graphite spray (Molykote?) available that may help make your gates slide (collapse/extend) more smoothly.

No farm project is complete without a gate tied with rope 😂 great looking building guys 👍 greetings from the United Kingdom 🇬🇧

"But I dont want to get out of the trailer" Loved it

Good call on the bird netting in the roof rafters.

Congratulations from Kenya! Such a nice barn and hoping it'll serve you well. I thought a compost manure barn would be better than bedding every now and then.

Dude this channel is amazing man💯

I’ve been waiting for this video! Yay! Exciting day

Look at all that stainless steel. For the gates that swing put an l bracket that swings up and down. When not in use they fall down to prevent injury.

Yes! We’ve been waiting for this. Make more videos, we all look forward to this! Great content!!!

Hope the barn does yall good!!!!

I’m gonna say that 975 is gonna be a good cow. She just looks really healthy.

This design is nicer than ours

They are very inquisitive when they are moved to new environments. Great video Eric, keep them coming 👍

I don't know who was happiest you, dad, or the cows. It looks awesome though.

So do you put heating blankets on them in the winter ? Asking for Peta

Eric, I was trying to see if I could have identified the first one to take a crap on the new slats... 😂😂😂. When I saw it I said, dang! Who dropped that. 😂😂😂😂 That was history in the making right there. I’m in on this journey my friend. All in.

Congratulations to you and your dad and the whole family on the christening of your new barn with poop. Really great looking facility and I love the gates and the different types of mechanisms and sliding things, really well executed at least from my viewpoint. I'm hoping that you captured some video from the first feeding at the new barn because I think it'll be interesting to see how the cows respond to their new environment. Keep up the great videos, can't wait to see more. By the way we haven't seen any videos of your adorable child the potential 11th generation dairyman/dairy person recently, just saying.
