Not everything goes as planned when you work bison!

[@mariesplace9547]

Dunbar taking his frustrations out on the hay. Well done for first time. You have a beautiful herd. 🤗🙏

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Thanks for subbing!

[@jericohen120]

Sharing your videos with my son in Texas. Helping to spread the word. Love your heart connection with the bison. I like to think of them as Sages of the Plains. These are the Wisdom Keepers of what we need to to live in harmony with the prairie. Take Joy in just Being as they do and feel the Peace of God all around you. Thank you for opening your heart to us as well

[@cassyfofana7805]

That was so much easier for you being on your ranch doing it. Not having to travel with the Bison 🦬 What a blessing . Bless u n ur Family .... 😇

[@tomcleghorn4005]

Dusty. Your love of these animals shows in how you handle them and how you treat them. Love the videos and I'm following along on the journey

[@steveadams99708]

Enjoyed the video - and appreciate the way you treat your herd.

[@wykeishacraft6820]

I wanna say hi to you and your family with those bison. You are a excellent supporter , it's good to see others out with you. I enjoyed your video and thanks for sharing , you and your family have a bless day.

[@kathyk479]

I really enjoy your channel. Buffalo are very special to me. I had a Bull , lead Bison , put his head in my lap and look me right in the eye. He was very kind and intelligent and strong. He let me know I was too. He was amazing. And yes I was awake I had my then 8 year old daughter with me! Lol she thought it was the best thing sense ice cream and chocolate cake! That's saying a lot if you knew us! Any way thank you very much we really enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work keep loving thoughs babies they are special! Kathy in Ohio

[@MrWrob32]

Never seen bison in a crush before, didn't realise they are so hard to work. Being in a confined space like that, really highlights the strength of these animals. As you said, you spend a lot of time with the herd, and you stopped short of calling them your pets. I can only imagine how much harder it would be to work them, if they are not accustomed to your presence, especially when Dunbar escaped

[@debbieyoung1943]

Such exciting news!!!! 4 pregnant. Herd growing. Congratulations, Love the videos.

[@roberthertzberg4421]

Thanks for sharing. Looks like you had quite a day. Congrats on the pregnant bison. Can't wait to see the babies.

[@2chihuahuamama995]

Congratulations 🎉 🎊 🥳👏 on the successful preg checks 😁

[@wykeishacraft6820]

Awesome job and experience working with your bison. Thanks for sharing and have a great day. Congralation you have came up a long way with your bison .I love Cross Timber Bison

[@shawnpower6206]

Wow! That really shows the power of those animals. Great video! Thanks for sharing. Watching from Virginia.

[@diannabolden7378]

Growing up like this is like a childhood dream. I know it's hard though, I use to come home from school and go out to the field get on pony back and fall asleep while walked around. Me and my 2 sister's grew up in Santa Rosa, CA in the 60s when it was nothing but farms and dairies. It was so much fun.

[@tanyajenkins919]

So glad that I got your system up and workable.

[@TensaWolf]

Handling system is pretty well thought out. You have the animals moving back toward their point of origin, there are individual sections for each animal, and everyone is taking their time. Just a few suggestions from stuff I've learned working bison. Add a loadout section to the working facility as it is much easier to load that way. Consider adding tie off points for a halter on the front of the chute, this can limit the amount the head can move making tagging less dangerous. Also in future additions make your panel height between 7-8 feet in height. For how large bison are they are pretty athletic creatures. Keep doing what you're doing and take your time with these beautiful animals.

[@jacobzeiset9785]

Good advice

[@nancylitton390]

For the first time...NOT ALL THAT BAD! Glad everyone was ok. Thanks for sharing.

[@kathybluxome5514]

[@sharonduvall7286]

[@echoandmeaservicedogslife3300]

Here from Arms family Homestead. Can't wait to explore your videos. ✌💕🐾😘

[@4godliv]

Congrats on successful working and babies on the way.

[@bobbikuhn3496]

I think you all did an great job. For the first time through, it went really well. I liked that everyone was basically quiet while working them.. The animals weren't startled by loud talking. They are nervous enough without adding more problems. Well done. Sorry, I did laugh when Dunbar found a weak area and busted out. You handled it well. Congratulations on your breeding program. You are doing a fantastic job with your Bison.

[@larrytremarki9458]

Awesome video Dusty, keep up the good work and thanks for Sharing

[@CComilla]

I'm new here, but WOW!, I'm glad Daniel from Arms Family Homestead sent me to your channel. I've never been around farm living and it just sucks me in to see the live that you all live and run a farm. I live in Hawaii, but never around this kind of life. You're keeping me as a subscriber!! Just love it. Keep it coming! Thank you for sharing!

[@benburns5995]

The Bisons are in good hands. Thank you for caring for them. They deserve to have a master like you. You truly care for them and I believe they know it. You all are doing some thing great for these amazing wonders, the Bisons. Gentle giants to me.

[@darylcampbell3244]

[@janzebuski3559]

I've been following your channel for awhile and came across this video from a year ago. Wow! It really shows all the hard work and changes that you've accomplished during that time in the working area: barn, painting, leveling of ground, etc. Lots done! Good job!!

[@jehsdca]

Definitely got my adrenaline flowing when Dunbar got out! A really exciting first time working your Bison at your new facility which we saw built! Cannot wait for the new born babies to get here. Very exciting!

[@carolyngaulin8297]

I am in Indiana we live close to the state line in Michigan and right across the state line in Michigan there’s a bison Ranch. It’s kind of cool to go by and see the bison out there. Enjoy watching your videos thank you

[@jennymiliano6554]

All I could think watching the bison was POWER!! Glad everybody stayed safe. Congrats on the 4 pregnancies, too. Great video!

[@Pisti846]

I was amazed how calm they were after they got out. They just ambled off, I thought they would be mad.

[@marcofonseca4511]

Great job ...very interesting...👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@sanjose6018]

This will be AWESOME watching a bison ranch grow huge and prosperous. God BLESS and keep you ALL safe healthy and wise. 🍺😎👍

[@cynthiabetts440]

Congratulations on the FOUR pregnancies!!! 👍Good job, Dunbar!

[@Lonepine_Bison]

I can't tell you how excited I am for your initial working of the bison on your ranch. My family is a few months away from starting our own bison ranch and I am learning a lot from all your videos. Maybe we can work a visit later. Keep up all the great work and take care of that baby Mama!

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Sounds good! Thank you for watching. Hope it helps.

[@terrycarson1811]

Excited about the new babies!

[@barbaragreene6592]

Just a couple of little tips that might help, is to close or narrow the squeeze part of the chute so the animal has to go slower coming to the head catching part, giving you more time to catch n lock the animals head. The next tip is to hang a rectangle piece of cloth on the side of the chute with a rope fastened to the chute, when the animal is caught, grab the other end of the cloths bring it over the animals eyes covering the eyes so it can’t see. If the animal can’t see it will have less stress n it will b easier to place an ear tag in its ear. On your new head gate, get one that opens out, so it’s easier for the animal to exit the chute. You will like it better.

[@CountryRoadsCowgirl]

nice facility!! bravo!!

[@tmrodriguez2517]

Loved seeing you work with the buffalo. Found you from Arms Family Homestead. Bison are exciting to see. I am a Montana ranch girl so always fing these interesting.

Goodness.....I was nervous just watching 😳😳!! They are beautiful creatures though......I can see why you’re drawn to them.

Omg I was so scared for you all, Dunbar enjoyed the hay!

[@judysetran9198]

That was a very exciting video.. I don't know if it was my coffee but I was jumping right along side ..Thank you so very much for the video.. stay safe and GOD bless

[@devenlamar3900]

Love to watch this guys. Worked up here on a beefalo ranch for 6 years. We use the same headgate without the front. Helped us to start running them through monthly. when u get them caught let them stand and settle give them some sweet feed to munch while in. Also we dehorn freezer ones. Safer. When we tag we use rope on farthest horn and hold head to opposite gate when tagging and tattoo. so u don't get horned. Hope some of this helps.

[@kathyjones8656]

I would have volunteered to watch Brookes! An angry cow is bad enough, but a Bison no way. Not even as tame as yours are. Great job, great maintenance system. Keeping all of you in my prayers 💕

[@vmorganbogart]

Oh my gosh! That had me nervous the whole time. I’d hate to think what it would be like if they weren’t as tame as yours. Glad it went pretty well. So glad you had such great help. I know DeeJay just hated taking care of Brookes. LOL Looking forward to meeting Brookes, officially. YEAH, DUNBAR! So glad he did his job. Can’t wait for new babies. I know this has been a lot of work & expense getting to this point. Looks like your dreams are coming to fruition. May The Lord continue to bless you, your family & your bison. Blessings, Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas 🇨🇱🇺🇸👍❤️😁🙏

[@prarieborn6458]

Did I hear you tell Dunbar “Thanks for jumping over the gate”. ?? to get back to his family ….the looks on your faces were priceless. when he just stepped out the side of the chute.--and never was heard a discouraging word. Wow, thank you for sharing with us!

[@crupert23225]

4:45 - WHOA. I was shocked how that bison was almost able to jump out. The power behind them is amazing. You weren't kidding - they can be DANGEROUS. I would NOT want to be the one doing a pregnancy check on those big girls. And Dunbar was ready to rock somebody into the next life. Hoowee! MAN those guys were angry. Dunbar got his aggression out on that hay bale. Amazing how such seemingly docile animals suddenly go berzerk on you. I could even hear Maya freaking out. She sounded incredibly fearful. Congrats on the pregnancies! This was your best video to date.

[@peggyhaines7394]

Great video thank you for sharing your bison with us. God bless you and your family and your farm.
