Milking time at Mosnang Holsteins.

[@MrHYDRO84]

Very calm, clean environment like the way this is setup.

[@ericgroat626]

Nice video. Nice herd of cows. The video tells a lot , cows in good condition, clean and docile. That shows good management!!

[@juliaplank6156]

I really like this style of milking. You get to be so close and one on one with them. You would see right away if they had anything going on right away bc you can get an eye on the whole cow.

[@tmarbee]

great parlor for most any size herd. Some farmers around here milk anywhere from 40 and some milk 250 in the same type of parlor and another benefit is much calmer cows, Great video. would like to see more.

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

Thanks, will try to add some more videos along the way!

+Mosnang Holsteins I've been looking into inexpensive ways to milk and wondering if you've had any problems getting cows up on that step up platform or keeping them up there? Also in the 15 years you've been using it have you ever had any of them get hurt in doing so?

[@rockymountainman7]

You got a pretty nice parlour there. The flatline parlour is one with great efficiency and is largely underrated. Anyway, looking at your video i see that you loose quite a bit of time between cleaning the udder and putting on the machine. Once you cleaned the udder and stimulated the cow into releasing her milk (oxitosen) you might as well hook up the machine right away while you are there. Saves some walking and shaves some time off that 1.5 hrs of milking too. The other thing that i seen is that the auto takeoffs can't seem to keep the machines off the ground.

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

Hello, thanks for the comment. We like to leave the cows for 30-60 seconds before putting the machines on, it is something we have discussed with our veterinarian and agree that when the cow has let down her milk then they actually milk out faster than if put on directly after being wiped.

Awesome conformation on these cows!

[@dairyfarmmidwest1615]

never milked in step up parlor but looks like a great way to milk cows wish i was closer would come help you you one day

[@brendanperry6429]

The 4 brown cows on the left are Jerseys; right? I guess they could be Guernseys or Brown Swiss,,,,,,,🐄🐮👢. Nice operation, cows are well kept. Two of my uncle's had farms; one had 20 acres with 6 Herefords in MA. The other had 200 Holsteins on a 300 acre farm in NH. Good friend has 150 Jerseys, on an 80 acre farm in Mendon, MA; Greener Acres. Learned a few things along the way,,,,,,,😎. Love the farms, lots to learn & lots to know!

[@ericgroat626]

Brendan Perry yes they're Jerseys.

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

They are Jerseys, we milk 5 or 6 and the rest are holsteins. Lots to learn on the farm that's for sure, we're happy to be raising our 4 kids here!

Still milking ? Retire from dairy ? Would love to see you post an update maybe a weekly vlog

[@davepriem9134]

Was wondering how high is the step up and would you change anything we are thinking of putting in a s six in an old tie stall barn converted to free stalls using the alley as a holding pen and feeding outside on a concrete pad milking around 40 head working on a limited budget and starting from scratch

[@philipnaylor4221]

Clean cows, happy cows, and your cows look great condition.

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

Thanks!

[@zae83rd]

I love the walk thru milking barns they are so much more efficient

[@ILdairyfarmer]

This video makes me appreciate my parallel even more, this one would make an old man out of ya in a hurry

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

It's not so bad, 15 years and no complaints yet. Quite a bit of walking, but much less when we have two people in there milking.

[@biffmerkes2874]

International1066 I've milked in a parallel parlor before and never had those issues

[@user-zu2bw7ig5v]

@International1066 you obviously never milked in a newer parallel with splash guards and manure catch.

[@dixiewishbone5582]

Your milking operation looks systematic and efficient! Herd in general looks like well bred stock. . . . Jersey at 3:19 has a very nice rear udder, is she classified?? Thanks for posting. - P.H. South Carolina

do you have any videos training fresh heifers in the step up parlor?

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

We get asked this question a lot, so I guess we better get a video up soon!

[@terrimoore8433]

Thanks!

[@whatfarmingisreallylike1055]

we have a six a breast parlour and 180 cow it takes us six hours to milk with one man in the parlour.

[@user-zu2bw7ig5v]

That's way to long

[@randrew10001]

sir the 2 cows together is that 8 foot wide? how deep is the stall plat form from the floor to where the cow are standing? and is there a stanishion on the cows when they enter the stall?

[@mosnangholsteins4124]

Ours is just under 8 feet wide and the platform is 1 foot. The cows come in from a free stall barn twice a day for milking.

Step up parlor is literally the worst of both worlds

We love ours, good thing you don't have to milk in it I guess!

[@rustyunderwood4986]

Grew up milking in a straight 8 flat barn (not a step up) then moved into a double 6 herringbone. Worst mistake we ever did. My regards to a nice, calm, & quiet operation. When a barking dog is the loudest thing going, it's being done correctly.

I appreciate that your cows are docile, but please do the dairy industry a service and delete this video and make one where they are combed, clipped and cleaned/washed. You should never picture cows this dirty. Also, the fact that your milking claw and teat cups touch the concrete would not pass inspection.
