[@JohnnyC10071959]

I am glad there are people like you left in the world increasing dominated by "factory farming". Those pigs live a great life until that one day. They are free to walk around and play, not confined indoors. The same for the few steers you raise for slaughter. If your viewers want to see contrast, drive by any feedlot. And unlike you, I am bashing the factory farmers. The commercialisation of farming has not led to a better society. In many cases it has bankrupted family farms. Yes, it has made meat "cheap" but at a great cost to the lives of animals and humans.

Travel for business and food are essential

[@kchall5]

Taking animals to the butcher so they can be processed into food is not essential travel? What planet do those folks live on? Probably the same planet where meat is made in grocery stores.

[@MrTechFreaks]

Ha! Short Story: I raise yaks (for meat) in Minnesota. During one tour with a group from San Francisco one lady was absolutely certain that her meat came from the back of the grocery store and not a farm. She was totally serious and a bit confused that meat came from a farm. It was crazy!

[@0xFF48]

I would say while getting livestock to a processor is essential, and the decision to accept the risks-benefit on taking them now vs a month from now is something only the farmer can do. Staying on the ranch is safer, but then the livestock are not making money for the ranch, and cost money in terms of extra feed.

[@OurWyomingLife]

We do what we feel is necessary regardless of some opinions

[@OurWyomingLife]

@@MrTechFreaks I've experienced the same

[@maryannanderson7517]

Sometimes people are just blessed with an overabundance of stupidity. Like the woman who criticized the small farmer for butchering a hog and asked how he could be cruel enough to kill a living creature when he could just have gone to the store and got meat there like the rest of us. Don't know what she thought those MEAT products were made of....

[@sandracorless6186]

Hey Mike some people don't understand the butchering process my grandparents were farmers so I understand but someone has to raise pigs, steers, goats, and so on for people to eat this has gone on for thousands of years it's the circle of life and not to offend anyone but something has to die so others can live people have to eat 🐖🥓😋 bacon makes everything taste better no calves for Erin so what's next for our Wyoming life keep up the good work and see you in the next video 🤔🤠🥓🥚😋😃😉

Back a few decades ago when my kids raised pigs in 4H, I wanted them to get it that after all the care and going to the fair, the pigs would be food. So, the first year they named their pigs, “Bacon and Bits,” and the second year, “Pork and Chop.” This was especially important for them, because they were city kids with a new country Mom. Thanks for all you do to bring reality to raising food.

All quiet on the warm sunny days that make calves jump right up and run like the wind. Drizzle, rain, snow, fog...that's the time for calving! Warmed many a calf up in the pick up, had one cow jump in the bed and stick her head through the sliding back glass, that got interesting in a hurry!
