Unbelievably interesting video Tom, it would be great if you can make this a mini series of videos showing the process of this calf growing please.

Yes

Could be content for a second channel

100%!!

[@marieseaward9891]

Great idea

[@criss0077]

That would be such a good idea, providing there is time. But to watch her grow and develop would be good.

[@chrisprior8573]

Tom, you are such a good ambassador for Dairy Farming. We need to encourage people of your age to get involved in the industry and your brand of enthusiasm is a very effective way of doing it. Love cows!

[@cynthiaforster3709]

Adorable Lil red calf. Ginger Fever would be a cute name for her. Love how personal you are with your cows and it shows as the cows trust you around their calves like that...keep up the amazing work Tom!

[@john34261]

he deserves atleast 5 times more subs becouse of how much care he gives his cows and calves and i love his videos and the farm and it's great it improves over time

I think you were more excited about this heifer calf than the new shed and waste system! I’m the same way, newborn calves trumps everything else, especially this one! ♥️♥️♥️

[@brikramberg8084]

I'd love to see a calf routine and also how you figure which ones you want to keep or not. Her name should be Cutie Pie cause she's the cutest!!

[@cyndir7418]

I was thinking Cutie Pie, too. So cute!!

[@maryvallas772]

Oh my gosh.. she is sooooo cute! And so friendly! What a little doll! I am very much going to enjoy watching her grow up! ❤

[@markbowler8091]

Tom, thankfully your posts show how much care goes into your herd. It’s a shame the BBC didn’t use you as the comparison against the undercover filming? Keep up the good work. You, Ollie and the others are doing a great job representing British farmers and hopefully some of the misinformed public will watch and learn?

[@danbatten7228]

Good video Tom. The public need to know what really happens on our farms. Not what the media wants to show them. Keep it up.

[@joannamay]

Great video ☺️ I know how excited you were about this one, truly a farmer who loves him cows 🐮

[@MrChriskdj]

Can't believe you're so confident handling new born with mum in the same pen. Shows how good you are to you to you livestock, they are happy enough.

[@eddlovatt]

Great video Tom and such a cute calf and it’s brilliant to see the process before and afterwards keep up the great work 🚜🐄👍🏻

[@georgegoertzen4723]

So glad to see a dairy farmer choosing quality over quantity. The milking Shorthorn was the the mainstay of the British dairy industry 100 years ago, before the Dutch Holstein Friesian pushed every milking breed aside because of their milk production was so much higher. But those qualities of milk come at a cost to the cow's health, longevity and quality of milk/milk fat, the cost to feed to support that production, cost to house (temperature/humidity controls) where as the dairy Shorthorn could produce significant quantities of milk and butter fat on a diet of just grass and hay. As well, other then providing shelter from prevailing winds, it can handle the British Climate without needing a barn or stable. And her calves provided the farmer with either a milking herd replacment or an excellent beef to provide meat. It, along with the Scottish Ayrshire, your Brown Swiss and the other lower producing breeds have been, sadly, all but eliminated from Dairy herds. We've even seen the genetic diversity of the Holstein squeezed down to fewer and fewer bloodlines as higher and higher production sires are chosen over others that may be sounder, longer lived, or physically better put together lines just to increase the liters in the holding tank. It's genetic diversity is what is going to protect us in the long run. And while you may not see this Shorthorn investment improving your liters/cow milked, she's going to pay off in the overall health of your herd and the meat in your farm shop. If no one else applauds her arrival, over on this side of the pond, I do. And thanks for evoking fond memories of 'Old Spot', our dual purpose Dairy Shorthorn on the farm I grew up on and the very patient, quiet cow who let me learn to milk as a 4 year old and let my brother and I 'ride' on her while she lay, chewing her cud on stormy winter afternoons in a warm Canadian stable.

[@jonnamoran8543]

Thanks Tom for such a wonderful video. Love getting to see the little cutie. Glad she is doing well.

[@MowersFamilyFarm]

Awesome video tom, keep up inspiring and teaching farmers! You throw alot of good information out so quickly, and always straight to the point. Keep up the great work buddy, always excited to get a notificaiton when you post a new video 📹 😀 🚜🚜

[@TomPembertonFarmLife]

Thank you so much 😊

[@ross6343]

Sooo chuffed for you Tom! Your animal husbandry skills are amazing. I've been around a few 'proud' mother cows and bloody hell...scary at times. That Mom cow was so calm around you...and that calf just took to you like hand in glove - love it! As to name - and I don't know how your Dad would respond - but I suggest Ginger Lass. It'd be neat if you'd share the calf's progression because 'Ginger Lass' also took to the camera like she knows she's a super star - very photogenic, indeed! Thanks for sharing. Cheers...

[@debrasenter6951]

Tom your enthusiasm, love and dedication to your farming is so obvious during your videos. Very few of us ever get to do what we love as our Job. Thanks for sharing your JOY! You are AWESOME !

[@meowth900]

This is great news! I am happy for the cow and for Tom! ❤❤❤

[@gearoidgeary5395]

Awesome video Tom. Lovely calf I think everyone would love the see a calf video. Keep up the good work

Hi Tom, What a joy to see how happy you are about you new calf and yes she is a beautiful little girl. More power to your elbow mat, and thankyou for all of video's and your honesty .

[@brendanoneill1466]

Little Calf!!! Love calfing videos and learning about the care and how to help them grow and be as healthy as possible.

[@williamwilson1486]

Hey Tom I look forward to updates on your shorthorn calf and I know I have 2yrs before it calves and into milk, can't wait. Many thanks Tom in all your time shared

[@j4mtns391]

Best video in a long time. Love seeing the cows and their story. Day in life of a cow would be a good video

[@TheBibitte]

Fantastic video, Tom! I could feel your excitement shine through. Love your cow/calf videos. Keep them coming.

[@ippaku]

You know what I love more then Tom’s excitement is we have a new happy cow. Be well be you

[@j4mtns391]

Naming her Ginger would honor your dad for all he's done as you start a new legacy. Sending love and smiles from Idaho USA. Both sets of grandparents were ranchers. Best days of growing up were visiting and working with the cows and bucking hay by hand.

[@AlleyCat-1]

Hey fellow idahoan. 👋

[@patpierce4854]

I thought Ginger would be a great name, too!

[@donnafink6262]

She is an adorable jewel to add to your great herd. Thanks for sharing.

[@janetwadlington7319]

Calf is so cute in her blanket! It is obvious you love one another!!! One of my favorite videos!!

[@africandawn]

Live hearing about how you do everything. Positively showing the life of a dairy and how the cows are loved and cared for. Thank you for showing us all, teaching the next generation, and setting the record straight.

[@pozziemozzie5642]

Thank you Tom, i love seeing new life coming into the world and we can see how much you adore your cows by the way you dote over them and make sure they are comfortable and have the very best possible chance of a problem free birth and life... It realy brings a tear to my eye when i see it as i worked on a 100+ milking herd farm back in 1999-2000, i do really miss those days and would love to find a job near me on a dairy farm. I see you doing things that i remember doing back then but many other practices that i dont recall doing...I find it very interesting how much cow husbandry has changed over the last couple of decades. Please could we see more vids about calf club, I for one am really interested in what they do and im sure there are others like me. Thanks again for a lovely video, i look forward to the next one as your videos bring a little ray of sunshine whenever you post one. P.S... Are there any plans to get a Pemberton Farm map on the new Farming Simulator game (FS22)??....now thats a map i would love to play on. P.P.S... I think you should call the calf......FELICITY-FEVER....Felicity means "intense happiness" and is derived from the Latin word felicitas meaning "luck, good fortune". It is also used as a form of the Latin name Felicitas, taken from the name of the Ancient Roman goddess Fortuna.

[@doloresmanakis3995]

Wooohooo first short horn on the farm💕 Looks like the black calf wants a friend🐃🐂🐄

Good morning from Florida, USA! Your new born short horn calf is beautiful! I love the way you love on her and socialize her to get used to human touch. Continued good luck with her.

She’s beautiful Tom, I don’t think I’ve seen anybody care for their animals better then the Pemberton Team do, Congratulations everybody, Thats made my day seeing this, cheers, keep smiling everyone

Great job helping and catching the beautiful mama cow in time, the calf is gorgeous warm cocoa fever for a name lol.

Happy cows, happy farmer...oh yes! Your girls are handsome enough for a beauty pageant. and the little ones are so sweet in their different colors. Looks like a very successful breeding program! :)

[@bobuncle8704]

She’s a great looking calf. Yes. It’d be great to know more about the calf club and the science behind the numbers. Tom, it would be such an amazing honour to me if you named the calf Earl. It’s not so common anymore, but it was my dad’s name. He loved dairy cattle, and had a farm in Northern Ontario for many years. He’s been gone for a while now, but I’ve no doubt he’d have loved watching your channel as much as I do. He was also born in February, so it would be a good fit.

[@spiercephotography]

Congratulations on the little Heifer, she's so cute! And great job to 236 :D I'm excited for all of you, I don't understand a lot, but i do love to watch, especially when cows and babies are involved! She looks like a Daisy to me!

Great video and yes, more about the calf's, calving and what they look like as they grow.

[@helenwest7341]

Great video- i am assuming that 236 is from your old brown Swiss bull Toby- me and my family actually bred Toby and I remember dropping him off when we sold him to your farm. I hope the rest of his calves have turned out as good as 236, he was the first calf out of mine and my sisters cow Bella and he meant a lot I can see that this shorthorn means the same to you as Toby meant to us

[@Priapos93]

I remember seeing Toby in at least one of the early videos.

[@helenat7794]

That's really interesting 🙂 She is from Toby, it came up on the screen he showed from his phone.

[@ilonamollema6467]

Congratulations with this gorgeous calf. ❤ Maybe GINGER as a name for her?

[@kessharris3180]

Yes please for the calf routine & more about the calf checks - new to the channel & find it fascinating!

[@matthewwillson6515]

Love this chanelle not missed a video in years. I used to do a bit of shoting and would spend some time on farms, it always fascinated me what they were doing but I didn't have a clue. I do now makes me wish I was a farmer. Also these videos have made me realise how much the public should appreciate farmers more the hard work, the hours you put in and the dedication to what you do is amazing 👏

[@just_dadam]

Awesome vide and super cute calf look forward to watching her grow! As a non farmer the info you give is so good helps us to understand what you do and why you do it, the love you have for your animals is easy to see as well! Would also like to see the calf club stuff, as for a name I noticed someone else say Ginny and really liked that too

[@susancaroline927]

I shared a picture with my Mama. She fell in love immediately. Of course after she found out she was born on her birthday she immediately suggested Carole for her name. She said even Jeanette would do. Her middle name. But I promised to make the suggestion so I’m keeping my promise. Lol!!!

[@GHExploration]

The bond between you and your animals is something else, the calfs name has got to be Ginger in honour of your dad who we don't see as often as we'd like too

[@frasermathers2287]

What a great looking calf Tom from an equally great looking mum. This brought back so many happy memories as in my younger days looking after the calves was my job and loved every second of it. What many don't understand is the level of commitment and care that most dairy farmers put into their herd and in particular your own and your teams dedication. There will always be bad farmers who miss treat just like there are bad humans who miss treat other humans! Looking forward to following this ones journey. Thanks
