Branding and Vaccinating Calves

[@kellydorney3514]

So wonderful to see, and have, family to help . That always seems to make the farm what it was meant to be. 🙂

I love hearing the mommas calling their babies. At weaning time, it’s the opposite. You have some really nice looking calves, Greg!

Nice looking cows and calves Greg

[@dustinadams9136]

Looks like you had lots of good help, that always makes things go better. The calves are getting pretty blocky already! Well once again thanks for bringing us along and sharing!

Calves are pretty big already

[@johnbuchholz313]

You have a nice herd of cattle. Are they straight Angus and do you use AI or live cover?

[@DiamondHeartRanch]

No AI. All bull bred. We try to buy good sires. We keep our own hfrs. for replacements.

Hello. I enjoyed watching your video alot. How many Calves do you brand today if I may ask you. Are you going to Started to Seed your Crops pretty soon if I may ask you. We still have some Snow here on our farm land were i live at my farm by Reward Saskatchewan Canada.

[@DiamondHeartRanch]

A little over 200 branded. Still have a few left to calve. Hoping to start seeding this coming week. We have snow along tree rows also. Thanks for watching.

When do you castrate the bull calves

[@DiamondHeartRanch]

Banded

[@chrisoconnor5880]

@@DiamondHeartRanch while you are branding or at birth, I never notice it being done in the video

[@DiamondHeartRanch]

@@chrisoconnor5880 oh sorry. Yes we band them at birth when we tag them.

[@chrisoconnor5880]

@@DiamondHeartRanch we had anything up to 15/20 thousand to do on the cattle station I worked on in outback Australia, did everything at branding Earmark, dehorn, castrate, and brand all in one go, get a good crew we could do 60 an hour But the mustering starts in March ends around August September Because of the size of the place, 1000 square mile. And feral cattle everywhere calving is continuous

@@chrisoconnor5880 wow!! That would be to much for me. I have my hands full as it is.
