People saying "that so sad that they're going to become food," while eating their cheeseburger, putting on make-up, washing their clothes and using fabric softener, or putting on deodorant... 😂 There's so many things that beef byproducts go into that people have NO idea about. They wouldn't be able to live without a lot of these things. Especially eating their organic vegetables, that are fertilized with manure. 😂 Thank you Brian, Cole, and Jeff for helping to feed and keep America running! 🙂👍

Geez such a small world, about 8 years ago I was on my way to Montana on a hunting trip and we flipped our camper in a ice storm right at the MT Vernon exit. Because we lost the camper we didn’t have room for a lot of our gear after the accident. We gave what we couldn’t fit in the truck to the Vol. Fire department. Great guys! I found you channel as I am a cattle rancher from PA. Love the Channel!

[@pennyhaldeman5626]

I love how friendly your monitor is and that was a beautiful sunrise you shared.

[@diggerdave.6587]

Hey again guys!! For me it was always a day tinged with sadness when the kettles left the farm for their new home...we used to finish them for market, it paid my wages so i never dwelled on it too much. as a few days later once we had cleaned the pens out we would have a new bunch turn up... I'm glad yours did well in the sale. I thought you were going to fall over backwards with boredom when Brian was going on about half slappy....the look said it all. The airsoft story was pure unadulterated gold Cole, we have all done silly things with guns, just ask my uncle Billy about the bank.....he should be out soon. Stay safe guys!!!

[@bethrowlette8933]

Also love how Cole always says "Hey, you ok?" Or " You want some Ibuprofen?" to all the dead animals he comes across! This kid cracks me up!

[@nancysiemion1312]

Oh what a beautiful cattle you raise by my dad would enjoy watching this Brian you and your son work so well together beautiful to see makes me miss my dad terribly and my mom. When I moved to town I had to bring my big dog with me and the neighbors kid always throwing firecrackers at her I came home from the BILLINGS and I went to lottery and see was laying in a pile of blood and fire crackers all around her she chewed through the galvanized fence I had put a piece of metal on there and she chewed out all the poor baby and what I was really wanting to say is when she was in the garage and I didn’t get right to her she dig a hole to get into the kitchen she finally got about 3 inch hole in the kitchen wall had to fix it but that poor baby Are IP moody dog you guys be safe God bless I hope your mom is doing OK are and your wife Brian

You captured a beautiful sunrise nice. 👍 I used to work for IBP in Sioux city, Iowa I don't know if they are still called that. I was pregnant with my 2nd son I had to walk past the rendering, it was like working in a refrigerator on the pork neck bone line. Watching those cows run, that's called fast food hahaha.

Wow. Beautiful sunrise.

[@earlhollar1906]

Pictures actually pretty clear for 6:30 a m November 11th. Especially after you have fell back. I've been impressed since I started watching your Channel with your shoot set up, and working pens. Especially that half circle squeeze gate. It appeared Ellie wanted to show you how she felt about being put in prison while you guys were having all the fun. Haha

sure makes it nice when you have good facilities to handle cattle my dad built a good place about ten years before we stopped farming I sure enjoy your channel takes me back

[@beeroquoisnation]

Awesome video Cole, Brain. Most people in agriculture, not all, but most around me have farm ground and they farm. They grow grains and drive around in equipment being stewards of the land and all. Then there are those farmers, like yourselves, who tend to livestock alongside scratching dirt and letting God Almighty produce a crop to feed. You gents are representative of days gone by for most farmers. It takes incredible faith, work ethic, and mental tenacity that humbles every farmer I have ever met that farms in more than one dimension, and you guys let it show. Keep honoring us with views of your faith, ethic, and tenacity, and maybe one day you'll make us all better. Cheers.

[@briansonne814]

It looks like your doing a fine job all on your own. I have appreciated your comments for quite some time.

Loved the drone footage of the new facilities in action looks great. Glad you will make some.money on the cattle. People may moan about them being sold but you feed them well, keep them watered and give them treatments yoy respect them and that is whats important.

It's neat to see all of the workings of a really big farm. I'm originally from SW Ohio and our farms are a bit smaller. I moved near to Sioux Falls just over three years ago. I still am in amazement at how wide open it is out here. lol.

Enjoyed the Sun rise RADIO portion of this vlog. Especially enjoyed hearing the great news of the Auction results. Cole, I hope some of your own Cattles were in that sale turning you a good profit. I have been in trouble in my younger days with an air rifle; but we didn't have those kinds of light switches in the late 40s 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 X 3

And 10 - 15 years from now it will bring tears to your eyes wishing they were little again. They grow up so fast but isn’t it rewarding when they turn out to be honest kind successful adults!!🙋‍♀️💗
