Nasty BULL goes to MARKET!

[@DouglasMiller-c3e]

Grant is getting ready big fast he must be eating pretty good love watching him grow!

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

Yes 👍 just found out he loves pizza

[@burtzorn4059]

Great to see the Grant man out and being large and in charge. Your girls are sure growing up quickly. You and the wife take care. Stay safe my friend !!!!

[@conniemaniaci3612]

Obviously you don’t just milk cows. There is a lot to being a dairy farmer. I never realized. Thank you. Without you the stores would be empty. Bless you and your family.

[@strobelightbrian]

Always enjoyable to see every thing you do.

[@davidmoran1422]

Use to clear the grass under the fence at my grandparents farm with a sickle. Thanks Kip.

[@alecfromminnenowhere2089]

You've had the most precipitation of all the Farm channels I watch. I sure hope the Welkers get some rain this season.

[@DickAnderson-k9y]

Had a bull starting to turn nasty and planned to ship him out but hated too because of his blood lines. We got his replacement and put him in the herd along with the old bull. After a couple days with the new bull becoming the new king Bull. The old bull mellowed out and was still doing his job with the ladies. They only fought once afterwards with the old bull losing to the new bull again. We actually seen our conception rate rise with 2 bulls. Kept both for 2 more years until we started breeding their heifers back.

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

Yeah I thought he’d mellow with the other one, they have for us in the past, but this guy was just always on edge

[@toddseefeld8469]

Nice seeing the Grantman at the farm more

[@timharmon458]

Thanks for the video!

Those chip tins were popular late 60's into 70's n 80's we had Charlie's chips here in Vermont usually mail order .

FUNNYthe way your son went back to the gator. Made my afternoon. LMAO That right arm swinging the lil happy guy

[@stevebiddle8912]

The kids are really growing, especially Grant!! Too bad the bull didn’t work out. Great video.

[@rdyardie]

Yes. Take them to market. A friend from our church Bible Study lost her father to a bull that had never been a problem. Her father went to move a bull to a different corral. It was dark out. He never returned. Someone from the family went to look. They found Marty's father dead. The bull had turned on her father. The bull did a number on her father. It was a sad time for the farm family.

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

That’s the worst 🙏

[@DJT7362]

At the farm where my dad worked they had a fresian bull not to be trusted he always took his dog with him when moving the cattle. She only had 3 legs but was one of the best cattle dogs for miles and saved my dad's life loads of times.

[@phyllishalley8972]

Busy.busy man Kip!!❤️🙏🇺🇲

[@SteveNicoson-u1i]

Thanks for another great video Kip. It was interesting and enjoyable. Glad you took that bull to market and got him out of your place. He had your cornered a couple of times so time for him to go bye bye. Good decision Kip!!!!! Those bulls can be very dangerous. At least you figured Out how your current bull got out of the pen. Easy fix on that one. Good going Kip finding those bent up boards. Your silo unloader travel wheel really was chewed up. Those unloaders are really labor intensive as you know. You got that one fixed easily. You about got the top on your silage wagon. Soon will have that fixed the way you want it. Nice idea Kip. About it I guess. Nice weather you are having. You all take care and be safe. Thanks for everything Kip. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@DouglasMiller-c3e]

You got a vary good family keep up the great job 👏

[@garyemard8480]

Great Video.

[@markgamble8377]

Yup time for him to go

[@scottlabant8406]

Great video Kip! Nothing gets you moving faster than a call saying the cows are out! Had a Black Angus bull that was friendly like a puppy dog till one day he hammered me again the barn wall. That was his last day, tasted really good. I was fortunate didn't get hurt bad, was really sore for a few days.

[@alfredomarotta6604]

This not so little bull, went to market. Great video Kip...keep em coming. Stay well be safe and God Bless. Those weeping cherries attract honey bees, when in bloom.....although very docile ( not like yellow jackets), be careful with Grant plaing with the little excavator near the one.

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

Yes, those honey bees were out today 👍

[@alfredomarotta6604]

I ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO CHRIS ĶIP 😊

[@haydenbretton2990]

They do say that Dairy Bulls are the most dangerous, they were always a problem during my working life in the Abattoirs.

[@bethany7518]

I thought all animals in abattoirs were really happy to be there?

[@aaronbeisch4707]

Kip, i am curious about your waterers. Yes, i know you mention in a previous video that your dad pick some flat top bulk tanks up at an auction(s). What I'm curious about is what type of float/gooseneck system you have and what do you use as a heater so the gooseneck doesn't freeze? Most of our waterers are the Ritchie brand, my dad was happy to find some with the stainless drink cups again being we're use to or trust that heater except for the electric meter

[@drbill44]

Ha Ha, Just grab a hold of it, sounds like something my grandfather would of done

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

Tks for sharing Kip.. how's the weather up north? Down here by Belding is really turned around. Nice warm sunny day. Never seen a chip can like that. I can only remember the New Eera chip can.. cant never trust no bull period... never. I worked for a farm with 3 groups of milking cows. Had a bull in each group. The one in the high group almost killed one guy.. not no joke neither.. busted him so bad he never worked again.. that was a dark cloudy time..

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

Weather looking good today and next couple days 👍👍

[@JimHerman-o3q]

Did they have a ring and chain installed in the bulls nose ?????

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

@user-tc3ou6sy5f No not that one.. He was always kinda kept to himself. When you went to get the cows for chores he just went with them or just layed put in the pasture. Then just that one day he went loco. Never was a problem

[@JimHerman-o3q]

@@ronaldfeuerstein435 So the question is....why didnt the bull have a chain and ring installed ? Even if he showed no signs of being nasty ? You do know that if a person puts their fingers in the bulls nose and squeeze tight....you could lead him around ? Same as in the wild.. lions often grab the buffalo by the nose. Total control !

[@ronaldfeuerstein435]

@user-tc3ou6sy5f well it wasn't my bull.

[@terrydarow8401]

You guys have made a good choice about that bull that would be terrible if someone would be hurt God Bless y'all

[@johnhatt1219]

Just grab a hold of it

[@jacobmueller9227]

When I was a kid, i asked my dad if he would ever keep a bull (small farm, all AI all the time) and he looked at me like I was crazy

[@kenhill3135]

Can't believe you guys never went to ring drive unloaders, especially with that many silos.

[@brokentractorbarnandgrill6598]

More Yale bologna 👍🏻!

[@ronriehle1337]

Hey that silo is overdue for relining. Contact your silo company . They'll have a company that will plaster the inside wall of the silo. Not crazy expensive. It'll make the inside like new. The feed won't freeze as tight to the walls in winter. Keeps air leakage from going through the walls. Better feed.

[@jamesbemis3755]

I am surprised you don't ai your cows

[@bodiehot]

get rid of the bull and do A I.

[@JimHerman-o3q]

With a thin ring.... either they breck the ring or tear their nose out. At least a 3/8 inch diameter ring works best. Caution .......with a short chain the bull can learn to toss the chain over its head....and your bait again ! Most times.....nothing less then 4 foot works best.

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

👍👍

[@JimHerman-o3q]

Question ? Why not install a ring and chain in the bulls nose ????? Ive milked cows for 45 years...... always used Holstein bulls. After the bull reached 1000 pounds the bull had a ring installed in his nose. ( the thickest ring you can buy). If at any time the bull showed any grumpy or mean signs we attached a 4 foot chain to the ring....... if he still continued being nasty we installed an 8 foot long chain. Last resort...attached a " window " weight to the end of the chain. Normally each measure resolved any issues ! Farmer always say the bull cant do his job....... huh.......right ..... never seen that on my farm ! The same bull could still run at least 15 miles per hour bringing them home from pasture. No signs of impairment there !

[@KipSieglerFarming1]

I had one in him and short chain, broke the ring out. I’m going to start doing what your protocol is👍👍thanks

[@jaybernieschoep]

what variety of oats are you planting. i am using nodaway 70 old favorite.

[@anthonyhengst2908]

When bulls get nasty it's time for them to go turn them to bologna. I am never sorry to seem go when they get unpredictable and mean.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Is that a Van Dale or a Feed Easy unloader?

[@rizzo-xw2et]

Kip - What about a metal SILO .?

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Dairy bulls don't mind homicide. They will hurt you without a second thought. I know from experience, and you have to think about your own safety.

[@keithraisor4030]

Don't blame you a mean bull can hurt in a minute. Cant trust them

good move on getting rid of that bull. He had bad body language, and a bad eye (not that soft brown eye you want). I wouldn't trust him. !
