Cracks me up every time a cow starts poking around a camera.. that one actually made me jump. Thought I was getting licked in the ear for a second there. Lol.

Impressed how calm and quiet cows you have! And so calm they where to enter the transport. And so nice in the body on heffers ,cow and calf. Manny plus from me.

Great video and You and Dad sure can move the cattle around when you need to. The little trailer is just big enough for the job. Silo looks great.

Mighty fine that sure was some good prices for them calves!! God Bless!!

Eric great update. Silo looks awesome. 👍🏻🇨🇦

Great video. The silo is really impressive. It seems you have a bit of sadness in having to send the older animals off to their next phase of life. Thanks again for a super video.

That new Giant telehandler will be awesome . Cant wait to see it in action.

Built a 24x84 concrete silo in 1976 Flying Dutchmen unloader. They mixed their own mix on site pulled forms by hand. Good luck men.

Good to see the silo getting done, that was sure neat to watch. Thanks for showing it to us. Good to see your calves, their doing good too. Thank, I hope you have a good rest of the week.

Sad to see the long timers go off to their final home - good thing I'm not a farmer! Thanks for the video.

Wow Eric it's about time that you finally got yourself a telehandler I've been saying about one for a long time, it's going to be of great use for your feed mixer instead of using the bobcat which has limited reaching capability.

Week old calves are bringing big money right now in the Midwest. But your price is the highest I've heard so far. Nice sound fleshy culls are bringing over a buck a pound. Beef is good property.

That wheel loader looks like a new machine class, ought to be interesting to see how it adapts to your normal farm tasks.

Really AWESOME and amazing video Eric. Thank you and your dad. The Silo looks amazing

With the cows with the crossed teats, try crossing the milker when she is put on and tie the cable around kick bar and milker hose. It will help her milk better

For a second, when you were showing the roof being put on, the new silo looked like it had a mad lean!!! Then I realised you were just holding the camera at a jaunty angle! 🤣

I love that the cow attacks the camera after you shut the door.😂😂😂

I’m surprised at how quickly the silo went up,it would be interesting to know how you like or dislike the telehandler, it looks like a fun machine to try out

Love to see the progress! Thanks for the video.

Beautiful farm. All your cattle are so well behaved. God Bless.

Love watching your videos. It reminds me of my childhood, I was raised on a farm. Keep up with the great stuff

Very fun to see a Giant loader, I drive a G2200 x-tra myself.

Hey Eric, on my youtube feed a video popped up for Macon One showing your demo of the Giant wheel loaders. Had to chuckle. You put on a good demo.

the outro is the freaking best part about this whole video. Love it fam

Silo looks great!

Thank you for your videos. I really enjoy them.

Looks like a new addition in the bunker silo.

My wife and I drove by a few days ago and seen the new silo. Very impressive, also said hello to your dad. Thanks for sharing.

Grass is really turning green isn’t it !

13:09 "He's gone! Lick the camera!"

Ya Got Me! 0:46 "let's see how i did?" Spot on! The jockey wheel is on the brick dead on!! 👍👏 hugely impressive. Then i realised, you werent' reversing the trailer in... doh 🤦‍♂ i'm such a donut 😂

I think we need a "running the foot bath today" shirt/hoodie

Great video, awesome to see progress!

Congratulations on getting the first silo finished. Hate to see those two girls go but it’s part of the business.

It's amazing how you get 1 on trailer an the rest pile in.

Definitely going to be leg day when climbing that silo. Need a rope and a bucket when you are doing unloader repairs so you can call for someone to bring tools to the bucket instead of climbing 100 or more feet back down to get something.

Your dad wearing a 10th Gen Shirt is fantastic

That’s a monster silo. No way would get me to climb that thing even if I could. Look forward to see that in your next video. Please tell me that you’ll be tied in with a safety harness. Great video Eric.

perfect timing just finished cooking the dinner :D

❤ ALL YOUR VIDEOS ERIC ❤

Great Work 💪 💪

Awesome viedo as always! Quick question: Why do you not fix the heifers in the feeding fences while moving them from one group to the next one and only set those free which need to go to the next group? That way sorting is easier and you can even do it alone :)

Cool that the silo is mostly done and you get try out that machine for a little longer.

I can't figure out why you don't put a bottom unloader in that silo. The pressure of 24 x 132 ft of haylage or cornsilage is going to be put the bottom 30ft so tight in there- rockhard - you top unloader will have a really hard time getting that last 30 ft out. Also constantly having to climb 130 ft (!!!!!) up to adjust the unloader on its way down. I wished you would discuss that aspect with your dad as well. 130 ft up will happen several times. I would like to hear your opinion about that. Also having that feedcart ( from Lely) to move in between barns in the winter time- with snow or in the pouring rain? Why don't you just buy a much larger TMR mixer and feed once a day - like we do with very good results.

Just got report, south central wi. Black calves bringing $10lb /Holstein brought 6.65! It's a wild market.

Uh oh...I think that silo is leaning a bit...hehehe

that is a huge silo...

Sounds like you got a good price for the calves ,that's good it helps.

“Having those utter problems.” 😂

Great videos I always look forward to seeing a new one. are you still going to use the silage bunkers ,if not they would make great barns if you used fabric hoop roofs

Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊

Great videos and great family...

Nice house in silo clamp 🙈

Thanks 😊

thank you

Wow, that is high…. Great job!

❤❤video ❤❤great information about what your family deal with on a daily routine ❤❤the silo looks great, how long will it be for the roof to be put on, also silo being used❤❤calving season ❤❤

That's mad $800 for AAX calf We just getting €120 for them here in Ireland 🇮🇪

Great videos guy...

Good work

After watching your vids for quite awhile, it surprises me how little your cows vocalize!

@2:30 imagine being sold.....cuz you aint right lol

That looks like a long climb to the top...no rest platform? Maybe you should rig up an elevator(LOL) Stay safe and thanks for the videos.

Your animals are content and a little frisky. Testament to the way they are treated. Silo looks huge, can't wait to see the auto feeder in action.

I was wondering that too.

Good thing its built before the first cut. Are you putting in another one or is one enough?

For scale those bunker silos made that house trailer look like a toy 5:16

presuming you pull the camper with the silver truck--but when do you take time off? (i know all that's not really for the 10thgenpublic camera, etc.)

Silo looks amazing and did anyone peep the modular home sitting in the bunker? Eric didnt mention it just curious and I love all the baby cows oh and the one Lady who tried to eat the phone i think she was trying to take a selfie lol

another great video

The only way to make that assent safe enough for me would to install an in closed elevator.😱

Thanks Eric for commenting on 999. It’s fun noticing similarities on your farm and genetics with ours. I tried but didn’t pick her sire. Einstein 👍

3:57 cow: gotcha!

GOOD AFTERNOON

🏡Great video yes 🌈☀️🐄🐄🐄🚜🚜🚛🚛 Happy Spring 💐🌹🌹♥️💌✨

A lot of money for the Angus...👍

Always amazed me how strong those little guys are.

If you have time, it would be really cool to fly the drone and check out the roof of the silo and fly it inside(don’t know if those cameras work in the dark…)

Funny sight moving those young cows on fast forward.

I love farming

No one ever talks about the physical toll working these types of jobs take. Can you speak on that at all, what you do to stay in shape, what you eat daily for nutrition? Is there anything you recommend to people regarding milk, whole vs 2% and how that works?

whats up with the mini house in the bunker?! I really think that loader is where its at. It wont replace the skid steer but you wont need one to be for everyday all day use. It would be so much more comfortable to use it seems

Whats the purpose of those ladder safety cages? Do they prevent injuries when falling down? Wouldn't a safety harness be more secure? I'm genuinely wondering.

I would think that a dairy cow would make good beef because of it's high carb/protein diet. Am I wrong?

question, what is the modular home in the bunker for?

I'm curious what the small home will be used for sitting in the bunker.

I'm waiting for you to climb the new silo only to be like "Oh hey guess they left some tools" and pull out a soda

When a cows udder folds in like that. Could be a birth defect or can be age? How much money can young male cow's be worth?

I set my trailers just below the ball then when backing you feel it slip over the ball and your dead nuts on. Looks like you almost were dead nuts on

Could you enable the multilingual voice option in video? I'm from Portugal and I know some people who also watch your videos (the subtitles don't always translate correctly)

I watch all video after started watching and subscribe backtracked to very beging watched from get go up till know love your c hg anel always interesting to watch and seeing y'all new feed silo go up been awesome as well to watch had no clue even built modern day out concrete or some cases stones designed fit together and held together with steele bar around outside witch tightened tightly just took for granted thinking all made out steele framing and sheet steele been awesome see go up and look forward seeing as yall get hole new system in place and up and runningv

What I learned is if you walk calves backwards it's easier to get them to move especially on the concrete

There is alot of concrete on that sola, they know what there doing.

What do they always use for bedding?

Have you guys had bulls with your milk cows before ?

Just curious do they put any sort of sealer on the inside of the silo?

The older 🐄 that was sad but it is a business. How much did the two 🐄 sell for?

Heifers look outstanding. Appear very healthy.

I wonder how much the cost is just for the roof? O just scraped the roof off a 12 foot diameter silo and it was a total of $56 for just the aluminum.

Hey dumb question, but why don’t you guys get the concrete Grover guy to rough up the floor in the calf barn? It seems like you fight that slick floor a lot.
