Action From Big Joe...Hauling Hay and This Happened!

[@tracybrown9634]

Florescent orange sounds like a great idea for the darts.

[@the_quaint_gypsy]

Gotta love the chickens responding to Here chick chick chick!

[@lindahollister5530]

I enjoy their colorful hair😂😂😂😂😂

[@tbayless8324]

That was funny!!! Having like 30 chickens running behind you!!!

[@Marilou-g5t]

"Here chick chick chick" is how a friend always feeds her poultry. They come when called! A very handy thing to have trained critters 😊 !

[@suzisaintjames]

Consider putting the almost due pregnant mamas in a pasture closer to the barn when the temperatures start to get too hot ... So you can check on them more often and maybe provide more shade. And maybe keep them close for a few days after the red dogs come and then return them to the main herd. I know you're always saying their social, so I'm thinking 10 or so in the maternity pasture at a time. 💖🌞🌵😷

Thanks for sharing your work day on the ranch. Good, to see neighbors helping one another. Blessings to you and your family.

I need something like that to move furniture out of the way to clean behind it.

[@judypasqualone3819]

Oh my gosh….that’s a huge amount of babies coming! Lots of luck you guys.

[@lindakinsey1093]

Thanks Marshal. Oh what fun was had by you boys. That’s ranching! Thanks Dusty. Hope Marissa feels better soon.

[@Pambo101]

That’s so funny, you feed the chickens the same way as the bison! In a sraight line! 🤪😋

[@Susan-cooks]

I'm 60 years old and have never farmed or ranched. I'm certainly not going to ever try to raise bison but I can watch this channel for hours and not get bored. I love the footage, the temperament of this family, and seeing the ranching community helping one another. I wish much success to Cross Timbers Bison 🦬

[@fredtedstedman]

73 yrs , same reaction ! best wishes from Wales .

[@dianebollman9979]

All the bison are really looking good and healthy. Can't wait for calfing season and all the new babies arriving. Always expect the unexpected on the farm. The friendships and commadrie between friends and neighbors, always there to help each other when needed. Hope Marissa is feeling better soon.

[@suzisaintjames]

1:25 put the chicken feed on the dirt, they will scratch up the dirt and get some air in those bald spots, add a little poop, and maybe plant a seed or two. If you feed on the grass, they're just tearing up the grass. 💖🌞🌵😷

[@Marilou-g5t]

They may also harvest some bugs, beetles, slugs or worms from the grass.

[@prarieborn6458]

Good luck with getting anything to grow where you feed the chickens. they can scratch & eat a new patch of green down to bare dirt in a few hours. Dusty’s chickens have access to pasture all around, but they seem to stay around the barn to run for shelter from hawks etc.

[@Marilou-g5t]

@@prarieborn6458 i had zero issue with chickens ruining my yard. Perhaps, when the soil is healthy and grasses are well rooted the grass can withstand a llittle scratching. I had about 200 chickens in 2/3 of an acre.

[@judypasqualone3819]

I’ll tell you Dusty, all of this is very interesting to me…I really like watching all of it. Thanks for filming. Pretty good mess there. 3 hrs! Hope Marissa is feeling better..lots going around everywhere. You all take care. ❤️

[@lindahipp8329]

Beautiful background where Y'all were fixing the fence. Glad you got the truck out and were able to get your hay hauled. Enjoyed watching you out with the bison. GOD bless y'all.

[@tiggerhaines4307]

WOW what a muddy mess. Love that sunset t. Just beautiful.

[@prarieborn6458]

I love watching men do stuff like pulling that truck and hay trailer out of the mud. All that power in the tractor and skid steer.. such handy rigs and storng men to have around. There is nothing worse than having a couple of tons of iron stuck in your pasture, or back yard or somewhere far away from home. As a Grandma, “i don’t know nuthing” about machinery. . It is an awful helpless feeling. The local county code enforcers require any vehicle on rural property to be in running condition and licensed, or “under repair” ie up on blocks over a raised gravel “bed’ Very enjoyable video.❤

Hey Baker family, I’ve had a bit of a rough day so to watch you feed the CRT menagerie was so relaxing and pleasant. Thank you Dusty! You are not only an awesome rancher, great daddy, and sweet husband, you are also a very good therapist. Thanks for the reset. Who knew …

Thanks for another good video ! All your animals look good ! Hope Marissa is feeling better soon !

[@pennyentringer168]

I know from growing up on a farm, that when you get stuck with duals you are really stuck. Some days are like that, where things don't go the easy way. Thankfully not every day is like that. Teamwork helps a lot.

[@emjustice1158]

So glad you shared this. I forgot Daniel had mentioned it till you shared. What a day. Thanks Marshall for helping out CTB and Dusty. Wish it had gone smoother.

[@prarieborn6458]

The little red-dog “Tank” was so sweet to watch, coming up to check out the truck. But the sweetest thing was how her Mama licked her, kissing her, letting her get close, trusting Dusty. Amazing ..

[@maryreinhardt2120]

Beautiful sunset 🌇

[@amyrobles4780]

OMG you should name that calf TANK! He has a great build. He's going to be a massive beast! I look forward ti watching him grow up. Hopefully? Whos the calf's daddy? Please make my day and say BIG JOE!!!😂❤

[@karolschulz48]

I believe dusty said the mother was pregnant when rescued. That's what I got out of it. Like anyone could be wrong and I'm sure everyone will let me know if I am. Ready set . . . . . . Go!

[@AngelBluff]

VIDEO SUGGESTION: Could you do a video showing the desired characteristic you look for when purchasing a bison confirmation, head back les ect. Most of us don't know what we are looking at when looking at the bison. I know cattle well but only know what i have learned through you with bison. You are a teacher at heart and i think a lot of ppl would like for you to go over characteristics to show us what you look for.

[@SherryMiller-ye8ol]

Holy Bisoñ finally I am so excited for this new show. Thank you to all of you . I love your daily routine. I am from the Finger Lakes. I live nextdoor to an Angus farmer. When you yell, Come on let's go, whahoo. You get a herd answering your call. Poor Daryl can yell all he wants but if those girls don't want to come, well you get the picture .

Interesting video. Lots of work getting those hay bales. Animals look very healthy. Cora, chickens, bison, dogs. The South Dakota conference was interesting. I keep saying you should write a book. You’re a very good teacher & your knowledge of Bison is vast. Sorry it ended being a long day. I guess that’s part of ranching.

Well, everybody gets stuck ever once in a while. Maybe not that bad. Lesson learned Thank you for sharing! 😂

[@pathamm5834]

I never in my 71 yrs thought I’d be fascinated by bison herd , but I just love the updates on the herds . I’m a more city born and raised so not like I ever lived on a farm. My husband was raised on milking cow farms in PA but I had never been to a farm until I started dating his friend , then him. I love history , always have so I think that trying to bring these native animals back to help environment, as the wolves have done is great ….so frustrating that “humans “ have to destroy the habitats then the animals before they realize there are links to everything

Hello from 92596 AKA Winchester, Ca. Stay warm! We are sending lots of rain and cold your way. Not me, mother nature ;)

[@SallyGreimes]

This is an El Nino weather year which means you get an excess of rain and cooler temps. While the upper PNW gets drier and less precipitation. Also we get warmer winter temps. We also get warmer and drier summers.

[@altawarren7334]

That was really stuck in the mud. Those skid steers are amazing.

[@virginiacurrey2019]

These bison are looking great. Your ranch is growing. More red dogs coming. Have a question.. would it help to put so many at a time in the smaller pen to dart each? Of course it’s not easy to corral them. I admire you and Melissa so much for keeping up with the bison life and new advancements. Thanks, Dusty. Boy that truck was buried deep. Thank goodness you had those tractors to get it out.
