Should have cleaned the barn before anything! Why is it not outside?

Have you ever had die offs before the aeration. One of the videos mentioned low oxygen water at the bottom being pushed up and killing fish until the aeration catches up. Wonder if you should leave it on once you had eased into it.

We love watching you with our toddler!!! He really wants to one of your hats. Every time we check your shop they are sold out. Hopefully we will get lucky this year and get one before Christmas.

Hi . Question, cuoldl You use the pig holding good to put your wood chips inside and bring it to You trees ?, love the way You guys put things toghether . Keep up the excelent. Work You are doing. Great job guys. Saludos from Medellín, Colombia :-)

You wet the hay then tried to move it? I could smell it through my computer.

Oh Mo! Where are Larry and Curly when you need them?

In a few months you'll have the wonderful joy of palpating. Make sure to take off your watch and rings first!

I’m excited for you about your new adventure. I try watching your videos twice a week. A tip. I think the quality of your videos will be better long term versus the number of videos. I wouldn’t try uploading a video every day. It would be a lot of work on yourself but too many to enjoy. If you did want to upload more frequently then make your videos hit the 10 minute mark. So you can get the ad revenue. I’m sure you will know what is best. Good luck and can’t wait to watch your videos. 🎉

Nice job on this video. You need to get your bride a pair of steel toes sandals so she doesn’t loose her toes. Congratulations on your retirement from your 9 to 5 job.

Congrats on the jump! So happy for you guys and I too would agree with the comments that you seem much happier. Take care guys!!

You both really need safty glasses on. I'm surprised you haven't gotten a flake of rust in you eyes yet. Very painful.

I had the same problem with duckweed in my pond I used sonar and got rid of it completely and put a fountain in. Duck weed does not like a fountain

All that work to AI two heifers? We halter train and just put them between a fence/wall and a gate. It takes just a few minutes to do the AI.

Congratulations and wishing you the best!

Are you going for beef or milkers or do we have to wait

This has happened to the best of us. You can also get cement and throw down on top of the oil stain and it will get rid of the stain.

that sucks no body would lease you a bull, i only have 3 mommas and get a lease bull each year, its just slightly cheaper than doing ai on em and he just shows up for 90 days and eats grass and makes babies

Congratulations on your decision. One chapter ends and another begins! Wishing and praying for the two of you! Stay safe and God Bless!

to keep them from trying to come back out of the tub put a small wall on a 45 in the corner to tighten up the swing on the gate

Neosporin

Heal it up before you let it go or the slightest smell of blood will attract predators.

Go to an AI school and learn to handle it all yourself. Then you can breed at the perfect time on Heats even after syncing with CIDRS. Been doing AI for years with our cattle. (We do it all ourselves). Recently started a deer farm and doing AI on the fallow deer! It's a different process! Go check out BRC fallow deer if you want to watch that process.

Maté great video hope it all goes well for you as you had left your Job I really do mean it good luck to you both and love watching your videos god bless you and your family and your friends always stay safe and healthy always. Can I say that you really do not want to but you’re body in the way of that!!!

Evan, great video. Hope this works out well for you guys. Have a great week.

Awesome carefully thought out setup.

Fair play to both of you. I've followed the channel for a few years now and I'm very pleased for you both. It's a great channel and your progress has been inspiring. Well done you both 👍

Hello Evan, Rebecca so your inducing their heat so that they can be bred ? Enjoyed your video have a great day.

Awesome thanks for the video

Hold the staples with Needle nose or hemostats.

❤❤VIDEO ❤❤very informative ❤❤

Best of luck, always enjoy your videos....

Evan and Rebecca, I wish you success in your venture to use AI to inseminate your cows. Having spent my childhood on a small farm where we had two milk cows I certainly knew that cows gave birth to calves, but my parents made sure to keep me completely unaware of how a calf was born. When the time was appropriate they would take a cow to a neighbour’s property where a bull was kept, but I was still “protected” from having any knowledge or understanding of what happened there. It is amazing to realise that there have been such different attitudes (between detailed knowledge on the one hand, and complete ignorance on the other) in different societies, and in different generations. One childhood memory I recall very clearly was the instruction that bulls were very dangerous, and this was reinforced by the maxim that it was better to trust a snake than a bull! I have heard it said that Jersey bulls are potentially more dangerous than some other popular breeds, and I also know personally a man who was seriously injured by a bull which had been brought to his property to service his cows. I fully agree with Rebecca’s reluctance to keep a bull on the farm, and agree that AI is a methodology which has merit - particularly because it makes it possible to breed from a selected bull which has desirable genetic traits. My understanding is that AI requires a lot more human involvement than allowing a bull to provide the necessary service, but it would seem that AI can be extremely beneficial, especially with a small herd of breeding cows. I found an informative KZfaq video on “Artificial Insemination for Cattle - How to AI a Cow”, which should be helpful for those who wish to have a greater understanding of this subject: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z86km6t7tc2zpYE.html

Watch out for that home made ice cream. It can quickly add to the waistline. 😇 👍👍👍

I think clean it up and put it back into the pond ….its rather cute xx

You make a great gate. I love this way of getting pregnant. hope for easy deliveries. If milk one then milk two; you can do this. And orphans calves could help. Learning this I good.

Homesteading with the Zimmerman's is a homestead like yours and they have 2 dairy cows that they milk for themselves and she makes buttered milk, cream, butter, different cheese's. They are old Amish and now living with electric, phones. cars, etc/

I milk three to four cows in a for profit situation in SE WI if you have any questions please reach out. Milking a few cows can be easier than you think when keeping calves on the cows. I milk when I need milk and the calves do the rest. The hardest part is getting the cow to accept a new calf that is not hers. Praying for your big life transition. Thanks for the videos, Jon

Items like this and morning/afternoon chores and you will have a great video every time.

Thank you for your honesty it's very rare.congratulations good luck, country view acres is my favorite channel.

I think the legal limit on no DEF/EGR/DPF is 75 hp. Any bigger than that and it doesn't matter how good it is you need from one to all three of those technologies. The issue is that diesel burns best at a high compression ratio, which means that it causes NOx formation by recombining Nitrogen and Oxygen from the air. The EGR valve takes exhaust gas that is loaded with CO2 and H2O vapor and funnels it back in to act as an inert gas and reduce the reactivity by starving the engine of O2, which means that a bunch of the diesel is just turned to coke where the hydrogen burns off of the hydrocarbon chain and the carbon is left to form soot. That's really bad to breathe so the diesel particulate filter catches it and holds onto the soot an a catalytic surface which then gets soaked with diesel to activate it and burn the soot off (all really really terrible for fuel economy). The DEF is urea and water in a eutectic mixture to keep it from freezing. The vehicle sprays that into the exhaust stream where it thermally decomposes consuming water vapor and releasing one part CO2 and two parts NH3. NH3 reacts with NOx (and sometimes O2) to eventually yield N2 atmospheric nitrogen and H2O.

Cool. Nice video thanks.

Heifer be like this is not how this is supposed to work! 😮 Hope they take 1st try when he comes to AI.

Interesting. Thanks. 🙂

Put some feed for them and they will be STILL!

Don’t use any bull other than a jersey, on these heifers, they are far too small

Learn how to do a Cobb n Co hitch for tying with wire

Gate latch is too high, if a cow hits the gate hard it will pop that latch

thats awesome, congratulations

I think that you waste to much hey .

How's "retired life" treating you? You seem a little busy but the right kind of busy. The cattle AI process seems fairly simple. Probably something the two of you could master and maybe this could be a service you could offer to your local community to add to the farm income. Thanks
