Cattle update. Letting them run out to pasture!!

[Music] fresh off the press nice and hot coming in hot shitty weather brings on the bull calves or just cats in general either way man isn't shitty out here so we're just uh making some pins here now what morning guys well she's colder than a two dollar pistol again here uh not a lot of snow got a bit of snow which is decent for moisture but this wind could have right off uh they're saying 100k wins i don't think we got quite that much but uh anyways you know when the storm comes you know what time it is time to drop your calves yes exactly you're right morning guys she's a little nippy this morning gotta get my glove back on here we uh had some more calves again last night um i got a little a calf hood to put on one of them i say in that snowstorm i don't know if i told you that or not we had a big storm we had uh five calves six calves i guess and uh they're all big enough now we kicked them over here last night emptied the barn and refilled it back up so now there's uh uh three in there and one's close to cave again here pretty soon so anyway i put those bales up there the other night the last thing i did and uh gotta keep the little nose lickers out of the way the tires because uh they like to play around the tractor tires for some reason but uh anyways so the other day it was so freaking windy that the wind was blowing in here so i put a chunk of tin up there's mama and new baby solid red calf that's so she has a solid reds her little sister she kept i don't know quite a while ago she had a red white face uh uh heifer calf so that was nice and i wonder how rosie's calf's doing she looks pretty good tucked in the back got a kind of a mess in here there's rosie and her calf hi rosie there's her little heifer looks good uh this guy we thought he was uh a little bit uh on the cold side but we ended up uh we ended up uh getting him up and he was warm i don't much just been sleeping i guess but uh yeah we're gonna get some new gotta get some new straw in here for these guys feed them get their water troughs filled up and uh so on all right got everybody fed watered a little bit ice in this bucket yet but putting water in all them got water a little guy there with this tucon what it does is pins its ears to its head and keeps it warm that way this big monster is having another nap rosie's feeling her face she's actually being a pretty good mom i thought she wouldn't be she was our she was actually a bottle fed calf one of the first and last ones we ever bottle fed there's her little baby so we'll see what she turns out to be like if we'll keep it back or not it might be small because rosie's quite small but that really doesn't mean much but uh anyways i did a count here the other day uh with the storm we've had like i said about six calves hold on put you in the bird hole at about six calves i can stay in there six or seven actually seven it must be because i have this shed right full and we uh emptied it out again freaking snow on my phone now emptied it out again and uh now we're back three more in there again how's she going today guys oh not so bad well we're out in the pasture north of the yard here uh i got a bunch of fencing to do here i want to looks like the bolts pulled through the windbreak there so that needs to be fixed put some new boards on or something i don't know a bunch of those wires that go on that line there are loose the new fence should be good because they were fiddle strength so they might have stretched a bit but they'll come back um i've got a lot of cleaning up to here to do it in the spring what's all this ice and [ __ ] melts but this big wind will help with that i think so right along this bush here i got uh high tensile wire and then i put a three wire but the high tensile on the other side looks like it all fell down so i'm just going to stick another one just above it and i think that should be good enough i should have video when i was over here the first time but i didn't and all these wires are loose just a big pile of [ __ ] here really see the the [ __ ] cows go underneath here and uh end up in the trees i don't really want them to go in there but uh anyways these are all fairly loose so i'm going to tighten all these up and uh put another bar bar between it's just a short short run from there to the gate and then i don't even know what i got for video clips here i just been videoing here the last couple days three days working on the ai shed and our trailers and stuff but anyways i'll put something together here i guess maybe i'll leave the livestock stuff on its own and the ai trailer on its own anyways here's our alley that goes up to the where the cows are where they come out they come back for water so i think what i'm gonna do is i'll pull these wires tight you can see they're really loose uh get those tightened up i may run electricity down the bottom-ish one and this side this side was fairly new and that's all i can electrify these ones on the bottom here too but these are all these two so they need to be tightened up like look at this one pull that right out of there while we're back here in the alleyway i got these wires all tightened up pretty good this one here i think i'm going to give it a bit bit yet um these ones here i checked they're not too too bad i don't want to go too tight because there's a problem when you run into having uh curved fence lines is when you tighten it it leans the top of the post over so i don't think i'm gonna piss around with that too much uh i did this which ones did i do here already uh this one i did not when i did and i did these two already the only other thing is i'm gonna run another one in here so i'll get to work on that and i'll bring you back in a bit actually i'll tighten this one here first and then then we'll move on to that then i know that this row was good this bottom one's nice it's only this one here that's kind of shitty so i'll bring you back in a few okay we kind of got a bit of a twirly gig here but whatever that should be good i think a bunch of this freaking high tensile [ __ ] got wrapped in the into the barbs but i'll off try and figure that out later it's still like a 19 wire fence so should work good enough okay well these are tied up here good to go you can even hear it camera doesn't show you this the vibrations it's not that fast of a camera i guess anyways she's good tight tight tight good enough okay now i'm gonna head out i got one more last job to do uh over at the gate this has become my atv here lately this old barrel needs a cleaning bad i have to clean her up before uh seeding starts here so um i will bring you back when i get to the gate there i got one more to fix on there and then we should be good when we'll let these cows out so talk to you in a few okay tell me this why am i get electrocuted off this [ __ ] wires oh i hate that as soon as i touch the wire it [ __ ] just is it because i'm standing underneath the power line or what i have no idea but it hurts something's shorting out and i know i don't for sure don't have a fencer hooked up because they're all in the shop that is oh that is crazy i don't know why that's like that never seen that before but anyway having fun here get in shock 120 volts nice well that was messed up freaking just shocked the [ __ ] out of me anytime i touched the wire with my bare hand and i almost noticed it over on that other side too well i thought it was something sharp and i poked in there but got a few cut hands and restarted the heart a few times there and anyways we got the fence up so ah now we're gonna head back into the yard here i want to take this roll of wire off the tractor right away because then i'll end up staying on there and riding around for chores and all that good stuff uh i gotta go to feedlot feed pellets there yet and uh excuse me made me sneeze i got shocked so many times but before we do that um all the gates and everything are up now so i should be able to go into the maternity ward and open up the gate in there hello here's all we got left to calf we got one two three four five six seven that one behind me is open she lost her calves in the in the fall after we prague checked so she's due to calvin april this one's in april that one's in april and i think annie's in april and then 3 22 and 2 are uh may cabbers so or be like early may something like that but uh anyway that's all we really got left there's only seven so we're getting down to the nitty gritty it's probably hotter than hell out here hey old annie is it hot for a black cow yeah this is ferdinand mom holy crap i'm down to 15 percent on my back look at this guys everyone see something neat black cow with a red calf so that says she was bred to a red bull and she carries a red jean remember i was telling you about that stuff before so here's this is how this works hey hey momo where's your babies there she is i think it's a
