Now that is the way cows should live not in a barn 24-7 when I was a young lad I would walk the cows a quarter mile down the road were they pastured on a 100 acres but they were at the gate in the afternoon to come back to the barn oh how I miss those days I was 7 years old then and I cared the milk to the strainer and we had milk cans back then to farms I work on one had delavel milkers the other one had surge with the straps loved it the farm with the surge milkers I worked there for years thank you so much for your videos

It's nice to see how humanely you treat your cattle. If our fellow Americans treated their neighbors half as humanely as you treat your cattle we wouldn't have all the problems that we have in this country today. Keep up the videos and your way of life.

Those cows are so fortunate being able to live on your farm w/ great care and green pastures to graze on, kind of like a child being born into a farm family. We so appreciate dad and brothers manning the camera as well.

I think 🤔 every farmer with cattle has a story or two about a wild 😜 train wreck 😳 of the cattle not going where you want them.We had pasture for our beef cows on both sides of a town road. Most times the herd would always move across the road easy. Yep MOST times.The biggest blow-up we had was when we put up a new big machine shed up.We thought the cows wouldn't mind the the new shed.WRONG!! They turned left instead of right and ended up going into a 20 acre corn field.What a mess.The cows(60+ head with 60+calves)ran clear around the field and back out. We got lucky on that mess but from then on we put up a temporary fence to keep the (herd) going the right way.The funny part of this is how much I miss the wild times on the farm.Watching your farm adventures helps me remember the good old days on the farm. Thanks 😊.

Absolutely miss moving cows and helfers to new pastures and just standing and watching and listening to them munching on fresh green grass. Loved the video and love seeing the old steel wheels that you made part of the concrete wall that look so good from any angle. Looking forward to the next video.

Some of my favorite things you do is when your family talks to one another like there is no camera reminiscing about what cow is a twin and her mother is the "big brown one over there".... just like how we do. When veteran cows know where to go, they know.

Hey love your channel. I grew up around the La crosse on a beautiful farm much like yours... hope to see more drone shots like Andy's channel farming fixing and fabricating . I think a lot of people love seeing how beautiful nature is especially on a smaller dairy in a scenic place and drones really show that beauty. Much like Andy you have a great passion for the what you do.Your channel will grow with that passion .Great work Thanks
