We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.

Excellent informational content. It's a shame You Tube has restrictions that remove actual procedures that are so vital to animals or people. We all need to understand where our food really comes from and the things that have to happen to care for animals and prepare them for our consumption in a humane manner. It's part of life. Thanks.

We have a method with 18-wheelers. Instead of saying the distance, do a vertical hand distance, and then there is a visual representation to the driver of how much distance is between the trailer back bumper and the loading dock. Just lower down the higher hand until you get both hands together - then do the military hand signal of clenched fist as "stop."

Hollar Homestead just butchered their 2 year old jersey steer and they said it is the best beef they have ever had. They let the steer nurse until they sold their milk cow back in the summer. They believe that is why the meat is so good. That steer weighed 1300 lbs when they butchered it. Good milk makes good meat!

Watching Nate the Hoof Guy trim a gazillion cows and the explanations/education he gives is impressive how much of this was very familiar. It is terrific that y’all have a vet that will do trimming. And it is so commendable that y’all are doing maintenance rather than fixing a problem

I was very impressed with Babe and her calf. First time in a trailer - impressive. Especially when you had the trouble you did getting her into the milking station....I guess all that work paid off.

About 25 yrs. Ago, my husband had a vet and beef rancher come out because he thought I was starving my Jersey steer. I am so glad that your vet said what I learned when I was a child regarding the difference in the built of the breeds. Also a tidbit for those who may be feeding a bottle baby- to help prevent the scours from developing I added some powders oats to the formula/grain offered -adjust according to size but I started out with 2 ounces each feeding. I don’t comment often, but love your channel.

I'm old and lived in cities and suburbs most of my life, but this was fascinating to watch even though I'll never be in the position of having to care for a dairy cow or calf. My late mother-in-law was a small-town vet who did all the things your vet does, and had a small ranch herself that I loved to visit. I've heard her mention some of the things the animals needed, but never had the opportunity to see actually how one trims a cow's hoof (and didn't know really why, either). Thanks to both of you and your vet (and technicians) for bringing something so informative to everyone. Babe and Ralphie are beautiful animals, and it's heartwarming to see the care that all of you give them.
