Dairy Farming and Grazing Cows On A Small Family Farm!

[@anthonyhengst2908]

Cows that pasture on a hillside is one of the most peaceful sights you can see.

[@stevestillplaysgames5732]

I Agree

Those twins have the sweetest faces!

[@GierokFarms]

Aren't they!

[@ScottPreston-h6k]

The best way we would seed birds-foot tree foil is bale it in late summer when it is a seed pod. The key to it was to cut it right before the seed pods were hard and dry because they would break open if they were to dry. Then store the hay until February and feed it to the cows. The seed will go right through the cows and self seed. We did that on several pastures. If I remember it took 2 years before seeing it. But it is a pretty yellow flower and the bees love it too. And we sure could help the honey bees

Good to know!

Love them cow bells

[@ScottPreston-h6k]

A great pasture is birds-foot tree foil. It does well in heavy soil and has a good protein. When my dad was milking the cows did really good on it. Increase of milk production. Latter when we had beef cows it really helped the calves grow

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

I have never seen or heard of anyone planting that, but I knew about it. It's not a typical crop, you are the first that I ever ever heard about that raised it. 👍

[@GierokFarms]

That's good to kn9w we will have to look into that

[@deanhoman1958]

Beautiful farm, gorgeous property! You all really take excellent care of the whole operation!

Love those cows, nothing like grazing cows and bells. Beautiful

[@Travis_Rivers]

Such a beautiful herd you guys ! I love those Brown Swiss . We have a big farmer here in Vermont he milks 800-900 Holsteins but he bought a smaller farm down the road and he has a gorgeous herd of over 100 Pure brown swiss registered i believe their like his pets lol

[@GierokFarms]

Oh wow!

[@crazyoldbat7600]

Dad and the pies... LOL.

[@process-stories]

It’s always great to see how much care goes into looking after the herd! Those Brown Swiss twins are adorable! Do you have any tips for keeping youngstock healthy during the colder months?

[@aedenjohnson6103]

A family that showed Brown Swiss had bells on their show cows. After the first night of sleeping in the show barn with them, they took the bells off at night! Great video!

[@GierokFarms]

That would be cool to have Cow bells at a show like that

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

@@GierokFarms Y'all have some good looking cattle. I'm sure you can pick out a few to work with in your spare time (🤣), and take them to some Dairy Shows! In all seriousness, if you get the opportunity to help out some interested young people, or when the next generation comes along, showing cattle is a great thing to get involved in, especially for the young people. It's a lot of extra work and time, but the kids you have, or the ones you help won't ever forget it.

[@JulianKeller-om6wz]

Nice farm tour! I really enjoyed that! Your landscapes are so beautiful there. Would love to see it some day. Do the cows ever go into the trees at all? Or isn't there anything in there to make them want to go in there? Your little valley project is looking really good. You guys are really good stewards of your land. That is nice to see. My dad was like that. He did anything he could for land conservation. He won several awards over the years for his conservation practices. God bless ya Dad!

[@GierokFarms]

They like to hang out in the trees when it's hot. Thanks God Bless

Why do you put bell on certain cows,and don't the said cow find it annoying or worse,getting that bell ringing in her ears all the time ?

[@GierokFarms]

It becomes music especially when they are relaxed and grazing
