Just something I forgot to add in todays video. I luckily didn’t get Covid in the end , and felt much better the day after. 3 of our family did catch it that week but everyone got cleared just b4 Christmas. Big thank you to everyone for all the messages and well wishes we got over Christmas. Very kind and much appreciated by our whole family. Have a great 2022 everyone 👍

Reminds me of my dad teaching me the ropes on the farm 40 plus years ago. Long hours for very little pay , but the best days of my life 😊

[@IFarmWeFarm]

I’ve been there, was payed with knowledge, or so I was told anyhow 😜

[@TheLivinitlarge]

I really have to commend you Adrian, you take great care of everything you do nothin half hearted and you have the patience of a saint. Fair play in getting the youngsters out to help. Lovely to see.

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Thank you, it’s what a family farm is really about I guess 🤣

[@theatlanticdairyman7917]

Hi Adrian! Just wanted to say that I really look forward to seeing your videos pop up on my subscription list throughout the week! I really enjoy watching you farm and hearing about how you manage your cattle and the rest of your family farm! I am also a dairy farmer, just on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. I quite frequently watch your videos and then take some of the things that you do and see if I can apply it to what I am doing! -Alex

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Thanks Alex, thats the great thing about farming, we all can learn from each other. I’ve learnt some great things from viewers all around the world and hopefully will continue to do so. Have a great 2022 👍

[@georgiaannbicknell6129]

Me too! Great stuff, Adrian.

Great video, that's a real family farm for you, Nicole is a great help to you, can't beat learning like this when you're young, farming is in the blood as much as anything. Great the way you keep the place and livestock so well, can't beat a tidy ship.

@@IFarmWeFarm Adrian I reckon if you have nothing positive to say, say nothing at all. 👍🏼 I've loved farming since I was a child, I still do. I enjoy seeing how you and the other lads I follow on here do things around your farms and look after your stock. 👍🏼

[@brendangeoghegan8777]

Super video… excellent first time cut by Nicole😀👍👍

[@mattyod73]

Hi Adrian I hope you and the family feel better soon . Watch this space Nicole will be running your farm soon she did a great job with no fear of the animals but a good respect of them and you could see her watching them because you never know . I remember we had an old pet of a cow too but one day she drew a puck on me and was coming back for the second one when my dad hoped a gate and scared her away . A horrible thing to happen but it taught me a lesson I will never forget.

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Yes I agree, you have to be very careful of pet cattle, we have a lot more of them this last few years as the kids have pampered them from birth, it’s definitely not always a good thing as they have no fear of anyone and can easily throw the weight about. Just have to have one eye on them at all times

[@mattyod73]

Ah adrian your in the sane boat as me with a house full of girls so you will have plenty to keep your eye on in a few years 😉

[@stephenp2980]

No harm to Farmer Phil, but your yards are a world apart! Great to keep things clean

[@IFarmWeFarm]

I never really considered it clean till I started KZbin and got told this, it does make life a lot easier for me but everyone’s different. As long as the cattle are looked after that’s all that really matters 👍

[@philipbutler9404]

Nicole done well Adrian good job on the calf

[@georgemorrison6689]

Well done Nicole, those battery clippers can be a handful and tend to steer you rather than you steering them but once you get the hang of it you will be away, I think your Dad could have let you do every second one, you must have been making to good a job and he was scared you would show him up on camera, great video well made, enjoyed the cattle

[@IFarmWeFarm]

She’s reading these message this evening and her confidence is going through the roof 🤣🤣👍

[@johnbarrett6021]

Brilliant to see the next generation learning.Great channel,keep up the amazing work.

[@tinkeringtaylor3053]

great to see Nicole helping you more and she seems to know what she is doing,one thing i learnt when i young was off the stockman when working with the pet calves was not to scratch their head / face and but to scratch their shoulder or top of their tail, as when the calves got older they could look for getting scratched and give me a hard thump with their head, not meaning to do it they were just looking for been scratched

[@IFarmWeFarm]

That’s fairly true, we have a lot more what we call pet cattle since the kids got more involved. Not always a good thing as there have zero fear of anyone and would through there weight around if your not careful

[@capatron]

Another enjoyable video and another example of how you look after your stock and your farm. Good presentation too and nice to see Nicole showing an interest and you making time to include her. Hope you don't get ill with covid.

[@imnothere220]

I asked in an older video so forgive the repeat, but any recommendations for a compact tractor type? In Kildare so need service as a reality (not some odd import) and would be for hauling trailer for logs, adding tractor mixer, pulling a topper (if that's possible). All new to this life....just can't afford a new tractor and can't tell the good Massey 135s from the bad!

Teaching the next generation

[@nikkirobson5800]

It’s so nice to see your daughter handling her cow. From experience I would say unfortunately you’ve most likely got covid. I had it last Xmas. You feel just a bit rough before you get poorly or test positive. But I’ll guess by the next video we will find out if you caught the lurgy. I hope your family are all ok and start to feel better soon.

[@IFarmWeFarm]

No thankful I was ok, just a sinus flare up. 3 of my family got Covid but we’re all cleared before Christmas thankfully. Thanks Nikki

[@martincraig1974]

Great job done 👍great to see the kid's get involved an she is really coming out of her shell 👍👍

[@johnhyde8892]

I could do with a pair of clippers for my tails on my cattle, I find they are so expensive. You could do with a good application gun to give the right measure easier. So I understand there is a weight scale which adjusts the correct amount, for the cattle what I think is clever.

[@patsykeown9057]

Great to see the next generation taking an interest in the farm they're a great help to you. Happy New year to you all.

[@gerardhealy2110]

I was told by rep not to shave the cattle before putting closamectin on. That it penetrates too quick and could make them sick..having said that I shaved mine a few weeks ago and did them with closamectin anyway.

[@Sean-fb7cy]

Enjoyed the vidoes throughout the year Adrian... just interested about the shed facing easterly... from experience iv had a serious amount of snow in my easterly side of the shed the last big snow fall ...its some if I were you I'd consider a plan in the event of big fall of snow some year .. any thing from rows of bales to wind break sheeting .. I'm sure a man like your self who has every thing ship shape and Bristol fashion ... Would have a solution taught out in short time.. Any how hope you don't mind my comment...all the best for 2022 To you and your family..

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Don’t really get much snow around these parts but we do get an easterly wind in late spring early summer. So fare so good 🤞

[@oconnellsfarm811]

Had a lad go into my calves one day ended up with 70 calves with rotaviries after him hard lesson learned I fined the closmecten very good

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Ya rotavirus is a though one too, you can vaccinate for it but I would hold off a year or two, we got a positive test on 3 calves that had a Snow White solid dung that would turn to scour eventually, spread quite quickly too but natural yogurt sorted them. That was about 8-9 years ago. Never had it since .
