I've got a 3-ish year old neighbor that watches you regularly. He calls it the "Bwian and Coe Moo-Moo Show". 😅 And he's adamant about getting a big green tractor and an Ellie dog. Stay warm guys. Cheers from Canada.

[@1striperon]

Sonne Farms has a wintry forecast, Brian and Cole aren’t sitting at home in front of the fireplace, they are outside taking care of their cows. Gotta admire their hard work and their hardy cattle.

[@beckyumphrey2626]

The cows know they are in great care. Your care for your animals is top notch. God Bless.

[@stanmonk2851]

Howdy from Oklahoma cattle county and rich Blessings from our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.

[@centexan]

Tough days for cattlemen. Work has to be done. Our thanks to you for doing it and sharing with us. And we now see clearly why those newer gates that Cole built are a foot off the ground!

[@maryannardan4159]

So glad you again are taking such good care of your cattle. Try and stay warm, remember to cover your ears, I've seen plenty of frostbite to the ears, fingers etc.. God bless you both for what you do

[@jackie9645]

Prayers to all farmers this winter not only for safety but for enough feed for the animals they are raising to feed us🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I’m not a farmer but by watching your channel I have gained a much bigger appreciation for not only all you do but for all your sacrifices! Thank you!

[@LauraDittman]

Truly see the hard work Sonne Farms does taking care of these beautiful cows..Looking at the long thick coats that will help them insulate during this Artic Blast. Stay warm and safe!!!

[@budtolliver]

I remember working in the cold weather and snow doing what it takes to get the chores done

[@johnwesner3935]

It's great to see that loader working pretty much every day. Takes a lot of the wear and tear off the tractor loader! Looking forward to calving!😊

[@larryterrell8458]

One of my favorite channels…. I appreciate the dedication of farmers!👏🏻🇺🇸👍🏻

[@lindarenslow8057]

Hey Cole my dad and I used to feed cattle. It was ether ungodly cold or hot as hell, but we loved it. I enjoy watching you both. By the way I was my daddy’s girl. I’m 75 and have no plans o retirement. I bought me big Peterbilt, and I love running out there where you all are. You have go a good life. Linda Renslow

[@gregwindschitl1896]

I’m 75, but remember back in the farm days and how miserable the winter weather could be. I enjoy your posts.

[@SteveNicoson-u1i]

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting for sure. Winter weather makes taking care of cattle even harder and more hours pushing snow. Appreciate the kind care you give your herd. Putting up the wind breaks and putting out extra hay shows you are good herdsmen. Keeping the snow pushed back in you our cattle is important in the winter time and you do a good of it. Yeah!!!!!! Good job moving the cattle. Thanks for everything Cole and Brian. Take care. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@tiptonridgepappy5941]

My hats off to you guys. Y’all have to spend so much time doing work on snow and ice removal just to do your normal work. Also having to purchase and maintain all that equipment just for the bad weather and muddy conditions. Great job guys. Enjoy your videos the most of anybody else’s that I watch regularly.

[@briansonne814]

thankyou!

[@johnharrar5374]

My sister-in-law Marlene Robinson is recovering from surgery of an aneurysm (sp) of her aorta which almost took her life, will be glad for the song of the day!! Thanks for such great timing!!

[@gregpavone8485]

Front end loader, excellent purchase

[@jeanhorne5893]

Cole and Dad Brian thank you for sharing everything.Keep warm and safe out there. I enjoy watching everything that you do.God bless you all.

[@briansonne814]

Thanks Jean

[@oldad6207]

From my farming experiences 45 to 60 years ago, I can tell ya the wheel loader sure beats the heck out of a scoop shovel.

[@dpw9768]

Truck driver David here. It was good visiting with ya at the farm show yesterday Cole. You take care, sirs.

[@debt4717]

Brrrrrr...awe, the memories (says Deb as she picks an orange off of her tree). Seriously, I miss SoDak every single day. I'd trade these orange trees for Black Hills pines any day. Retirement can't come soon enough, and when it does, I'll be headed north. Stay safe, stay warm, my friends, and may God bless you and your families.

[@southpawred7172]

I had Simon & Garfunkel on 8-track back in the 70’s- 74 Chevy nova, good times. Great choice Brian.👍

[@michelletauson2867]

Prayers for safety and health for you and your cattle! 9 inches of snow a little over a week ago and 70 yesterday in Maryland! Had my windows open and did barn chores in a t-shirt. Crazy

[@amym8479]

Thank you for another great father-son Sonne video. Wishing you all the best during your calving period.

[@SonneFarms]

Thank you!

[@jerryrosman5122]

Snow is just always a huge waste of time and energy, but at least it's moisture!!!

[@nwb2795]

The snow is so beautiful to me….but I live in a Southern state that never sees snow ❄️ Cole, I know you and your Dad work hard but 10 times harder in the snow! There are spots in your video that I just stopped it and looked at the snow!!! Thank you for this snow!!! ❤️❄️

[@benthomas3418]

soo true about the mail.. i sometime put mail time off for a few days on purpose lol

[@browneyes-cj8eg]

feel bad for you in the winter months. taking good care of your cattles..

[@JoeWoolley-rf5fq]

Hey guys never miss a video . Thank you for sharing part of your lives . But Cole you look like the Unibomber. . With you hoodie and dark glasses… Haha. 🤣😂

[@SonneFarms]

😊 thank you

[@williammatzek4660]

Thanks have a good evening!

[@canvids1]

Just imagine trying to feed all those cattle with small bales now that would be a real chore. great video thanks and no snow where live in Southern Ontario with 40-F

[@johannaraisch4051]

Thank you for all that you do and with a smile on your faces, regardless of weather. Coo coo ca choo ! 😊

[@ronromkoz5995]

Enjoyed the video Cole...I could be wrong but in a previous video your Dad didn't give his "Song of the Day" anyways hope you didn't get too cold or much snow! BTW love the John Deere equipment!👍

[@rachellefrombrizzy9604]

I think it was “King of the Road”. 😊

[@dalegereaux1863]

It looked pretty cold while I was watching today so I put my hoodie on to help you guys stay warm. 👍😉

[@jimlong527]

I feel guilty My wife and I are sitting by the 88 degrees pool water temperature and 80 degree weather with an adult beverage in hand. It amazes me how you two can handle and care for so many cattle soon to feed America.

[@EnthusiasticLake-mv7ms]

Great, interesting, and so much fun to watch. God bless you.

[@cynthiaarundel2240]

God bless our farmers 🙏🏻

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Yeah, with drought conditions here, I sure was glad to get a second cut on my fields, wasn't much, but saved a lot of money. We're gonna be close but I think we'll make it to grass growth. Those cold days takes a lot and with the snow and rain we really have to increase our hay to the cows, along with the protein tubs and minerals. Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed watching, have a nice weekend.

[@charleslynch7274]

My hat goes off to u and ur dad not easy work when it's snowing and freezing out

Stay warm and please be careful in the cold. And take good care of those cows. Keep sending the great videos. Love seeing them in Illinois.

[@billbrown5813]

I remember milking cows when it was that cold. You just hug the cows a little closer. LOL

[@Pigpen1202]

Your animal husbandry is second to none 🎉. Love y’all

[@tomhill4765]

That payloader is certainly a big asset on your farm

[@JoeMurray-nm9ge]

Hi Brian and Cole You guys are amazing dealing with the harsh winter weather. Do the cattle not loose weight when the weather is so harsh.? In Northern Ireland all cattle are housed over winter ,it’s wetter here. Brian why don’t you put up a cardboard cut out of yourself when you are doing gate duty. Really enjoyed your video👍

[@MrCrazycook8]

Good news: MT Vernon, SD weather- +36f today, Saturday warming up to 47f on Thursday. Next video Cole will be in shorts and t-shirt

[@mmurphy2317]

Sounds great!

That big loader is sure pulling its share of the work. That from an old farm boy that a '48 A with an F10 FarmHand was a deal

[@barbcoleus]

Such hard working guys. I appreciate you.

[@mybeckett74]

Love Watching 👍

[@SonneFarms]

So glad!

[@barbarastedillie1336]

That was great information you just put out there about how much hay you all go through, and then the information on the ranches in Montana and Wyoming. I’m such a freak for nonsensical information. I just kinda hoard it in my little mind!

[@mr.billhillerich]

Love your guys video's. And I can relate. When I was young I used to help out on one of my uncles farms here in Ohio. I had to milk the bulls, feed the hay. My dog as best friend would answer me when I asked him how it felt to work the farm, he always had the same answer..." Ruff"!!😅😊

[@darksarcasm4835]

Milking bulls seems like it would be a mighty dangerous proposition-your uncle must not have been very fond of you or your help.😂😅😅

[@mr.billhillerich]

@@darksarcasm4835 baaahaaaa...yep he was a " REAL McCoy"!

[@genegustafson1665]

Find a set of tire chains for that end loader and you won't have no problem getting stuck in any situation. You should be able to find a used set of chains

[@coltsjason]

Yeah I agree with tire chains that loader will go anywhere

[@cindyn7512]

Spotted one of your Hereford heifers in the group --- looking forward to seeing those Black Baldy calves in a bit!

[@MSNet1]

It's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get with the weather. Mother Nature does what she wants. Hopefully, this will contribute to a better planting season.

[@joshkirk8828]

Love your videos I am a cow calf op in Virginia

[@cindym.1618]

I watched your first video so I could compare the farm then to the improvements you've made to this point. Wow!! You've come a long way and I'm so happy to have come on this journey with you. I'm glad I'm not a cow (turns up thermostat). Edited to say I love your videos because you don't talk too much. Is that a Scandinavian trait? My uncle was from South Dakota and he was the same way. Didn't say much but when he did it was worth listening to.

[@mr_mongo7228]

Guess I shouldn’t complain about those 60’s were having this beautiful Saturday morning.

[@elizabethbradley7621]

Better you than me out there in the snow. You might want to get a pair of Alpaca socks so your feet can stay warm. I lived in Mexico, Mo for 2 yrs and I am glad to be back in California. Love you all

[@fritzie1968]

Cole spitting facts - mail time becomes bill time which eventually becomes complete junk mail time. LOL. Love the vids and try to stay warm Sonnes!

[@JackieDannenberg]

Been thinking about you and the inevitable weather. Hard to believe it’s almost time for calving. Stay safe ! I guess staying warm is out of the question. Thanks for all you do !

[@livingthedreamag]

We just came out of a deep freeze in our area and now it is raining about every day. Cattle farming is not easy this time of year. I would prefer frozen ground any day. Good luck!

[@LLthereistome2024]

I'm glad your getting snow, hopefully you'll get enough to help you with your crops.

[@fazerainbow5674]

awsome video cole thumbs up and shared

[@blister762]

Hey Cole, on your new invention, I re-watched the last video and if you do move the head out a few more inches then you might want to put some weight on the other side of the plate to balance it. That much spinning mass hanging off the side should be counter balanced or you're going to shake your skid steer apart.

[@idsnow]

About the bowed rod on your failed contraption: you can take out most of a bow like that by heating up the middle of the convex side with a torch. When it cools it will pull the metal and take the bend out. (of course bit by bit is better). I used that trick plenty of times when fabricating, even on thick 3 inch square tube.

[@anthonyhengst2908]

Snow is a minor inconvenience if it leads to good crop yields coming next summer and fall. It certainly was cold lately, starting to warm up again. "Joltin' Joe has left and gone away".....

Fun fact about that movie, at the end, when our hero has finally made the decision to not let his sweetheart marry the other guy, he gets in the car, headed to LA to stop the wedding.
