Best fly control is slick oily hides and moving cow mob.

What a beautiful sight in the beginning of the video! The hills, the grass, the cows, the tree's, the sky, just beautiful. Great shot.

[@Ric_Ro]

What and amazing herd of beautiful and healthy animals. Greg you are true inspiration.

[@willieclark2256]

You've become quite the cinematographer! Almost every video looks like the opening of a western

[@brandonkrause6401]

Greg you should sell copies of the fall grazing school on your website. Id happily pay $20-30 to hear Ian Mitchell Innes lectures and I'm sure others would also!

[@MrEst1953]

Its great to see young men who are working to make great cattlemen , beautiful herd fine knowledge Thanks for the videos.

[@tedbastwock3810]

0:41 gah-lee, Greg, when you're up there on one of your hills and there's the blue sky and the clouds and the green trees and the grass and all those beautiful cows, it's just an amazing picture.

[@kathyw1710]

You have the prettiest calls that I ever seen and no flies bravo to you

[@vitomilillo8566]

Consistency is the winning formula for Success!!!! What beautiful animals, you’re living proof of Proverbs 12-10 Can’t thank you enough, God bless

[@Elfunko99x]

Thank you for making these videos w your interns. This is such a good format to learn from for us who can't intern but also want to learn. ❤️✌️

Interesting observation I have a neighbor who has clear open pasture and mine that joins his is more of a hardwood savanna, peppered with oaks and hickory. The amount of flies on his cows are horrendous, I feel so bad for them. Hundreds flying around each cow. The cows I have don't have near the flies ever. There's always a few bugging them but not nearly the extent just a couple hundred yards away on him. I have not sprayed or any other measures to prevent them. I have come to the conclusion that the amount of trees left in my pasture have maintained a strong wild bird population. It is literally the only difference because I had started my herd from his calfs looking for Mr Judy's suggested qualities within the calves I bought. I cannot come up with another logical reason for this massive difference besides the savanna style pasture and increased bird habitat as opposed to his open field's. Open to any other suggestions it may be but that is my observation and theory.

[@NS-pf2zc]

I'm looking forward to the video on the pups. We have a pup we've been working with since she was 3 mos old. She's still learning to be a sheep, haha. Had to put an older half lgd in with her for a bit who has strong protecting instincts who taught her sheep weren't to be played with. It worked.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

I watch your videos because I find it relaxing to watch the herd move. But man, do I wish there was a version of you doing goats I could find on YT! 😉😄

[@hadynbond4510]

Great video Greg hope you all are doing well and always love seeing your beautiful cows. I have a Agus limousine mix herd in wyoming maybe one day when I can afford it I will buy some bulls and heifers from you if I could. this year things are kinda tight do to not getting to sell my calfs till price went down

[@raybankes7668]

in Walla Walla it was 107 today low humidity. Im glad we dont get that muggy weather as often as you guys do

[@davidsawyer1599]

My guess is the interns that work for you are in high demand once they move on. Thanks for the update Mr.Judy.

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

Great info Greg! Thanks so much for the Lespedeza lesson....our pastures here grow the snot out of fescue..then during these hot summer days they sprout out the Lespedeza...I try to clip them before they seed out...darn little fuzzies love the tractor radiator!

[@a.w.2428]

Greg I was looking at that cow at the 12 minute mark ,thinking she has that sunk in triangle when you started talking about her,makes sense.

[@brandondavis9668]

Greg, have you discussed some of the challenges with raising livestock in your video collection? More specifically, a video dedicated to problems like mastitis, prolapse, bloat, hoof rot, and realistic expectations with cattle drives, corralling, trailer loading etc.? Love your positive videos, but we also know that it's hard work and plans don't always go as expected.

[@solarpoweredfarm8813]

Greg, will you record the grazing school?

[@conradhomestead4518]

Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@larrymoore6640]

Greg that's interesting, move the cows and leave the new born flies behind. I like the last plan where you said skip a section and really confuse those flies.

[@alacy777]

They nailed the previous paddock.

[@swenbos7760]

Hi Greg, those are beautiful cows, and the grass is surely high enough to hide their feet. Which brings me to my question. What hoofcare do they require? I never spotted any lameness in your videos, do you trim them yourselves?

[@willieclark2256]

He culls the animals that get foot problems continually. The only treatment is mineral and moves.

[@ellabry4037]

Because they’re on pasture 100% of the time, they wear them down enough on the ground that they shouldn’t need any trimming

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

We have never trimmed a hoof.

[@jeanninemcwhorter919]

So what are you using to keep them slick?

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

It is the cow breed itself that makes them slick hided. It is called South Poll

[@allanbartlett123]

Do you guys get a daily muster of the cattle before or during the moves so you know if any are missing? Just curious.

[@wendyscott8425]

Greg, don't you use chickens to come through a couple of days after the cows to eat the fly larvae? Seems like that would control them pretty well, too, and provide another income stream.

[@willieclark2256]

He's said somewhere that the chickens just don't move quick enough to keep up with the cows and their large daily moves

[@davidtimus4026]

The grass is still too tall for chickens to be comfortable. They like grass shorter than what the cows leave it.

Are your cows and sheep insured ?

I have to ask, how does Ben handle the heat in those long sleeved shirts? I break out in a sweat just looking at him.

[@alanwhitaker1320]

Long sleeves keep the sun off your skin. It's actually cooler than short sleeves and no skin cancer.

[@NS-pf2zc]

I wear long sleeves out in the heat too, as well as a big ol hat. Its rough, but I don't wear sunscreen and burn to a crisp in about 5 seconds if I don't. I started getting age spots after one summer of sunscreen and no hat. That cured me...

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

I wear a long sleeve shirt as well. Much more healthy for your skin and the heat does not wear me out.

[@bigwhane8603]

Can you share how you market your beef

Where u located buddy ..

[@sugarloafcreekfarms1751]

How do South Pole do in cold winter I live in minnesota

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

They do best in warmer areas. We do have several producers that have purchased bulls from us in Minnesota. We made sure these bulls could grow adequate hair in the winter.

[@davidhickenbottom6574]

Skip it just what I was thinking. See im learning .

[@JohnMarsing]

Good info, thanks

[@johnwood738]

Have built tree swallow houses and put up for next year. I find it very interesting how many cattle show the white face of the Hereford would have thought after several generations it would be gone.

[@ajskab99]

That bump on the side of the neck is a pus pocket at the injection site. Try wiping the needle with an alcohol pad before you stick the needle in.

[@MarkShepard]

thank you as awl-ways!!!!!

[@davidlagodny1965]

What kind of cattle are them solid Reds

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

South Poll

[@ajskab99]

Why don’t South Poll cattle sell better than they do? I’ve spoken with most of the sale barns in my area and they all say the same thing, they can’t give top dollar for South Poll because their buyers don’t want to buy them. I’m a little nervous since I just bought some South Poll bulls and I’m starting to keep South Poll heifers back.

[@gregjudyregenerativerancher]

Salebarns should not be your marketing avenue if you want to make a living from your grass. Salebarns want big black cattle that can eat a lot of corn in the feedlot. There is no money to be made there. Those high maintenance large cattle are not making the cow/calf owner any money. The input folks end up with all the money. South Poll cattle finish on grass with no grain, your money to be made is converting grass to meat.

[@ajskab99]

Greg Judy Regenerative Rancher my problem is that I run 80 cows and don’t have anywhere close to enough people to sell beef to and have to take the rest to the sale barn. I had one guy tell me that he doesn’t really want any south poll at all. I guess it’s because the feedlots don’t want them.

[@aaronsicard73]

Then don’t sell South Pole cattle, you can’t get top dollar for anything that isn’t black at the barns.
