[@peasant5612]

It's all good , quite an extraordinary effort you replying to comments after making the video, working and family time as well Thanks 😊

[@shawnh8754]

It was 100 degrees here today. I'm envious of your cool weather.

[@dre96324]

Hi from the King Country. First milk going into the vat this afternoon. Exciting days ahead.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Awesome!

[@yvonneward]

Awesome delivery and what an udder well spotted and dealt with x

[@yvonneward]

Aww those calves look beautiful so many wagging tails x

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Hello place looks great. New fence looks perfect. Fun to watch the new calves getting there milk. Nice job deliver your calf. Milk is going up I hope for a good season. See you then.

[@ronaldlucas5360]

Your calves are looking good so far. Nice to see new fence. Thanks for explaining to us what is happening.

[@cruzn4ever169]

Andrew yours and Dad's hard work paying off. It's starting to show.( bear fruit )

[@cdemo1186]

Sweet as Andrew. Nice job in the delivery ward. The fence is looking excellent 👍🏼

[@johnjordan4647]

Andrew the Midwife 😂. Well done 👍 Another replacement?

[@pixie706]

Having to pull a calf isn't the cow's fault if there is a malpresentation . Worth that extra time.

[@peasant5612]

Wow, your grass , the long stuff , I haven't had any like that since April. My part of northland itvjust stopped during May. Left us short going into winter and never recovered for calving. I'm very envious right now 😂

[@chuckhenry5487]

Those udders look terrific. You might have to go to 2X milking😊.all kidding aside , it is always great to milk fancy cows,with milk dripping makes you look like a great cow manager! Thanks for sharing your wonderful videos.

You're getting to be a big enough channel that you should get on to Tow & Fert for a demo. Foliar feeding might reduce your fert bill and usage.

[@MarkDonnelly-j9v]

Hi I like your video

[@stewthorne]

l remember my first job as 9 or 10 year was feeding the new calves finger in mouth then into the bucket and my first calf born was a little bull he went on to another herd and won many rosettes

[@richardhoover7569]

I got to dispute your observation of frost and bone chilling cold. In NY we save that term for winter mornings below 0 degrees F and a 20+ miles per hour wind. Those are the days you are glad you have a barn full of cows tied in their stalls. But most of all you hope the water and everything else isn't froze up.

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

I totally agree with you there, we have no where near the weather extremes you guys get over there

[@pjdee5879]

Coshquin rings a bell. Coshquin House, Ireland by any chance?

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

From what I can gather we were Ulster-scots and moved to NZ around the time of the famine. They had a farm just out of londonderry called Coshquin, which was on Coshquin road which is still there today, there used to be an old farm house but I think it got pulled down at some stage

[@pjdee5879]

@@TheOnceADayFarmer The land there is kind of similar to your place but the weather is a lot worse. One of my distant relatives had a pub in Coshquin in the early 1900's. It's right on the Irish border.

[@keithwheeler8875]

Everything is looking really good Andrew calves look in Great nick, cows udders are bursting full and cows look in Great condition and good grass I did wonder if you might have a few problems with the cows being in such good condition but half a dozen pulled calves and a couple with slight milk fever is nothing looks like its really paid off being that much ahead of the curve already with the milk solids

[@TheAgeOfLyrics]

great video mate, wish we had 90 cows left to calve, we're not even 1/3 of the way yet, milking a bit over 300 out of 1100

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Thats a lot of cows to calve!

[@rancher4911]

Andrew , would 2hot strands of wire not be enough for the cows or is there some other reason for the 5/6 strands used

[@vineranch8103]

Hi buddy, how much land do you have, that is beautiful over there. From Florida, USA.

[@justinwenzel8459]

cows milking well mate, shame the price has dropped

[@johncooke3353]

No such thing as a off duty farmer Andrew, great to see some lovely udders it makes getting up in the morning worth while 👌🏻👍🏻

[@SNIPERUTARA101]

l like it

[@hilarywallace3007]

Enjoyable video :) Do you clean or spray the udders before you milk? Or do you just not show that?

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

wash with water if they are dirty but that's about it

[@paulveenings6861]

Should grow like stink 😂 I haven’t heard that saying for a long time.

[@JDseller1]

Always good to save a calf and really better for it to be a heifer. Funny how you dairy guys want heifers and us beef guys want bulls/steers. LOL

[@changinglifeforthebetterjo8997]

Goodmorning iv been watching your videos for a while now we use to farm in teawamutu for years. I'd love you to make a video around your roll plus pay as in are you the farm manager or do you have a deal with your Dad about your roll are you on a salary or do u get a peace of the milk production cheers love your videos

[@TheOnceADayFarmer]

Its not a bad place aye, Im just the manager, I dont actually have any equity in the farm yet

[@peasant5612]

Damm don't you dread that, the 1 leg poking out never occurs at a convenient time 😢
