Woodpecker from Alabama. Hi Dusty, I watch you every day and love watching you and the Bison. Nobel animal and Nobel thing you are doing for them. Love your videos.

I hope Belle got some cubes anyway. Congratulations, first Red Dog of the year.

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Aww so precious little Red Dog!❤❤❤

[@merrylmarsh9037]

Thank You Cole. This is a treat to look at episodes I previously had not seen. I only joined the channel early last year. It's a joy to know these great beasts are being loved back to existence. I hope you're well. Thinking of you all and wishing you the very best for 2023.

I love watching you and your family and your Bison. I moved to a small town of 1,500 in Freeman So. Dakota. Loved living there. A lot of cows. horses and pigs were around us. I could not believe the number of flies. When I saw a swarm of them on a pile of cow dung is when I absolutely hated flies more than ever, especially when they were in the house. I hate fly swatters, but give me a rolled-up newspaper and I get them every time. Now I live in Redding, CA, not as many flies, but every time I see one in the house, I think about my experience in So. Dakota. Blessings Dusty.

[@franny607]

Ohh they baby's are adorable and those bison are so beautiful to see 💕

[@MyWoodpecker]

You are Amazing Dusty. No one but you would think about a toy for Dunbar. You Go Dusty.

[@gotchacovered9038]

I love it! LET US PRAY (let us spray)😅

[@karenladwig3856]

You have come a long way!🤠❤❤👍🦬🦬🦬

[@MuirWoods111]

I guess Daniel wasn't joking this time when he said the Bison got out..... BUT, Dusty, I've commented before that your Bison look at you like a friend and that is why, as you said, you had an easy time getting them back where they belong. You and Marissa, Kevin and everyone else who helps you have learned that having gentle ways with even "huge" animals has paid off in the way they trust you and follow you. Glad no one was hurt and nothing was destroyed. Blessings to everyone!

Congratulations grandpa. She is adorable.

[@donnareis6862]

So fun to see the babies up closer! 🦬🦬🦬

[@sherryschubarth6878]

I think you are doing a great job with your Bison. It’s clear you care about them and you take great thoughtful care of them. 👍🏻

[@miahstalings8572]

Listen I didn’t see no kitten 😂❤ you got me rewinding and fast forwarding looking for the dang kitten

[@diannemiller4754]

When I traveled to Woodword, OK. I was mesmerized by the soil. Many shades of red. Beautiful! As a Michigander I was used to dark rich farmland soil. Great video thanks for sharing.

[@lifesyphon1]

Those baby skunks are just the cutest freakin things I’ve seen in a good while!!!! My mother is begging my daddy for one! A de-skunked one of course. They make wonderful, funny, snuggly pets! Like cats but with the personality of a ferret! 😂

[@diannemiller4754]

Long season videos. I've enjoyed seeing your progress on the ranch. I watch/listen as I do my chores and making lunch. Thanks Dusty for sharing.

[@AZJH8374]

We've got lot's of Buffalo 🐃 heards here in AZ. I've had a Buffalo head on my den wall since I was a baby. Not proud of it, but it sure was BEAUTIFUL! Love the channel. Nurse Judi in AZ

[@ruthannbennett8347]

West Virginia girl watching. Your farm is beautiful. It's like watching a western movie. Congrats and keep up the good work.

[@sharilynhensley793]

Thanks for sharing!

[@gayle4804]

Blast from the past!!

[@BigBabyJane]

I watch CTB and I watch AFH and what I've noticed is it seems like Daniel and Dusty have a bit of a competition going with their farm toys. One day Dusty will show his skid steer and then the next day Daniel will show his. I get a kick out of this! I think it's funny that they seem to be having a little friendly competition going with their farming toys, tractors etc. I'm not sure if they are doing this on purpose or it's just ideas for videos for each of them to show off their skid steers, tractors and atv's. I laugh my head off when I watch their videos where they look like they are competing. It's also funny that Daniel says his brother in law has had his welder for a year now then Dusty will make a video walking past the welder. Lol. Maybe I'm reading more into it but, if it's not being done on purpose, you guys sure fooled me. Hilarious nonetheless.

[@dianelefever3608]

First time watching. How adorable!!

[@meiraloraduncan8953]

Each skunk has it's unique pattern of stripes the same way that each zebra or giraffe has it's own unique pattern of stripes and spots. We learned this a number of years ago when my youngest sister stupidly started putting out scraps from dinner outside in a protected area near our kitchen windows next to the kitchen table. Pretty soon she had 6 different skunks, a ground hog and a raccoon who came by every evening after dinner to see what she had left for them they never sprayed, but they let the other animals know that they had to wait their turn to eat whatever they didn't want. Each skunk had a very unique pattern of stripes and there was even an all white one. On Halloween my parents generally had hundreds of children who came to the house and they were literally 6 feet away from the skunks and they completely ignored the children. Eventually Dad made her stop feeding them. They never sprayed anyone during the time she was feeding them.

[@shirleyjcastiglia3676]

They were missing you Dusty and went looking for you!🦬😅

[@TimShelton-uz4ue]

Hi Your doing a great job with the bison. Jacksonville, Florida

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Goodevening Dustin and your family!❤❤❤❤

[@janetwithers7427]

Baby Bison is so cute. Congrats 🎉

[@AZJH8374]

Can we see baby again? Home, family. Great channel! ❤️

[@francesstratton695]

I remember when the dairy barn came down…it was a awesome, thing with family and friends always fun!!♥️♥️🇺🇸✝️✝️

[@patsyfournier6830]

They are awesome bison love them special the babies

[@gwgdog66]

That's called senior advise Dusty 🙂

[@kippettis6014]

Adults but your content is not inappropriate for children to watch.

[@joanminske2498]

I agree with you Dusty I too am a SOFTIE when it comes to all life I am surprised those skunks were found in a whole & not killed

[@DianaStuckert]

Anyone who grew up on a farm knows what a mineral block tastes like.😂😂

[@jeanmm2996]

I love the stuff Cole does with all these cool intros.

[@BisonClips]

Thanks Jean! I have fun making them!

[@OutrageousAspect]

Also you need primer sealer to stop the rust growing and bleading through... before the epoxy

[@johnangelo5567]

I love the old school marathon

[@verdagarner5112]

I love skunks they are a very good mouser’s the smell doesn’t bother me at all. That white baby is adorable

[@joanminske2498]

Elanora really seems to LOVE it that's for sure

[@donnareis6862]

Learn so much from you! Love watching!😊

[@lka6951]

Love watching you, your family and the bison. Have u ever watched temple grandin? If so, what did u learn from her? Be safe and healthy

[@BigBabyJane]

I'd love to at least drive by the Ponderosa and see what I can see from the road. I'm in Tulsa and my husband and I are looking to take a little day road trip soon. Would love it if the ranch ever becomes open for visitors. I think it'd be awesome to come in and pay a fee or a donation to be able to visit. At least donate money for a bag of cubes. Lol. I think a lot of supporters and followers of CTB would come from miles away just to see the bison a bit closer than what we can on our computer screens. I sure hope visitation becomes a reality one of these days.

[@parryan1800]

Thanks!

[@BisonClips]

Thank YOU for supporting the herd and the CTB team! 🙏🦬

[@NJBeachbum12]

Have you tried to install any tree swallow bird houses to attract the birds to tackle the flies? Install them every 200’ or so.

[@CarolReidCA]

So great to see the love and respect for these beautiful animals that feed us. ❤️ The skunks in the hole were cute, too. Thankful we don't have smella-vision! I hope you get those flies under control. I think that's one of the biggest challenges on most any farm. Have you tried biological controls, such as parasitic nematodes, parasitic wasps, or other fly parasites? Arbico, Organic Cowboy, and other companies sell biological controls for flies (& and other unwanted pests). These don't harm bees, lacewings, praying mantids, animals, or people, and can make a major difference in reducing fly popumantis, Perhaps they might even trade some exposure on KZbin for a treatment for your farm? I don't know, as I'm not affiliated with any of those companies, but I have used biological controls, and they have made a huge difference. I'd cut the cockabur weeds when they are small, so they can't go to seed. Grab the seed pods and dispose of them. They are a tough weed to control. The Siberian variety is medicinal, but they tend to be rather " invasive" (I don'tknow if they are classified as an invasive species, yet perhaps they should be?), and can lower crop yields as well. Deer eat them, but seem to prefer other plants. You might consider trying to use some vinegar in areas where they are prolific. Nice farm, BTW! All the best, from California!

[@jeanmm2996]

Dusty, you need a proper farm truck: one that's beat to all heck. A jalopy of a truck. A good ol' International. This one here is your "Sunday" truck. Dunbar keeps me laughing, even when he's being good.

[@carolynnance2376]

Great content Dusty! Loved this video….. great progress!

[@rarabang3584]

I fell asleep and now I’m here😂😂

[@kathymazey1299]

Dusty, did Marissa know that you was planning on raising bison before you got married? Thank you for sharing your videos of these beautiful bison. Have you looked into the history of your properties? That would be cool to check into it.

[@susanjones3039]

Seen this farmer in Vermont who puts boards covered in fly paper in the fields around his long haired cattle. And they get covered in flies, he then lets his chickens eat the flies off the fly paper. Was pretty interesting.

[@lindahollister5530]

Nice building.

[@lindahollister5530]

I hope your barrel idea works.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@doublebuckshot1612]

If you really want something to keep your big guy entertained you could put a brush (street sweeper brush or car wash brush) for them to rub on. Push a nice fiberglass post in the ground and slip that on, guaranteed it will be there favorite toy.

[@joanminske2498]

Wear is this new barn going up at mom & Kevin's?

[@elizabethbaker2993]

Sweet.

[@marciaborg77]

Loved the video dusty

[@sandbeebe]

It sure would be great if you can get someone(Granger Smith 🤭) to make you your song.

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

So I'm just wondering, is does it drop more food down, or do you have to do it manually???😊😊

[@mathewdasilva4421]

Nice amish hat

[@Bjj827]

Babies are so cute

[@kimhaggard6018]

Awwwww ❤

[@cassac103]

Dunbar might like the barrel on the ground, like the bales of hay.

[@skyeblue5669]

❤ BEAUTIFUL DOG..

[@louisemaynard7384]

If those baby skunks are so young there eyes are shut then they are probably nursing so why drive them so far away from where mum left them ? They are totally defenceless if they are blind surely ? They will be literally sitting prey ! 😮If I’m wrong then I apologise of course , isn’t there some kind of rescue nearby that would at least feed them till they are old enough to be released .I’m not a farmer as you can probably tell and maybe it’s just farm life , I’m just soft hearted and don’t like the thought that they may have suffered a long death starving to death !

[@bea7664]

Think I would have wanted a massive wire brush to remove all that rust, sod the noise of spade scraping lol

[@coyroberts8356]

Hey!!!

[@arlahunt4240]

You have done a great job making sure the feeder is safe for the bison.

[@joyferguson2124]

You could have had the feeder sand blasted. It would have cleaned all the rust from the surfaces.

[@luwrolstad1274]

Such a good Mama Belle star

[@whitlynd11]

I say you get the sheep farm first. You can make good money off the wool with the possibility of making fabric and clothing if you buy the productions too. Plus they are way easier to take care of just feed them some grass and your good.

[@susanjones3039]

Seen it put in a tub, and the mixer poured over it

[@ericwright2702]

Your channel has Has just popped up on my Playlist and I have been enjoying it alot thanks for your time and effort you put in to making all of your content . I have a q😂uestion that has been in the back of my head for years as of 19😂84 I lived in the Northwest Territories for a few years and I went to Fort Smith which is in the middle of Wood Buffalo National Park and from there I was traveling through Northern Alberta and I saw some Buffalo fenced up and a friend said they where Beefalo and I laughed and said ya sure as to the old joke of ya Like over there is a Jackalope haha and he said no seriously and since then I wasn't sure I did eat alot of Buffalo jerky and ordered online Buffalo burgers and was never sure of what the animal was that it came from as I can't see it being Buffalo But I know it was better than Beef jerky and the Burgers tasted great but do you slaughter the Buffalo for meat or are they crossed with cow please put a end to my curiosity of what have I been eating ???

I have a counter depth, double door refrigerator which is against a wall on one side. I dislike it! If you put your fridge by the door I do think you will regret it.

[@juliearnold5832]

I’m confused. You must not be posting these in order. I know Bell Starr and Eleanor had their babies but now you said one more had a baby, Quapaw or Peaches? I thought all four of them were pregnant.

Do not paint over rust. It's gonna flake off and the bison will ingest it.

[@barbarajgosselin6797]

Dustin honey, you should put something big behind the wheels. So it won't be moving on you!

[@YorkshireLassWithClass]

I could never sell them for meat especially when they’re all so used to people and take food from your hands, i’d rather sell them as bulls to live his life with the female buffalo, it would be different if they had no contact with them.
