Ready or Not Winter Feeding Begins!

[@bobdetweiler1120]

You are bless to have such wonderful neighbors-friends-family to help one another, it is a never ending job to come home from work, always something to do out there, thanks for sharing!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks for the comment! We are definitely lucky with our family, friends and neighbors

Another great video Bryan. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Couple of things you might want to think about doing. Make a goose neck hitch for the 3 point hitch on your tractor to pull the hay trailer when feeding your cows . I know you can do it as you are pretty handy in the shop . Another is get a bobsled and a good team of horses and you could maybe feed them yourself?

Beautiful. Love how the dogs work the trailer. Great to see little ones along side.

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Those dogs have a pretty good life haha. It’s fun getting the kids out and about with us.

[@robertsimmons3556]

So true are your comments about family friends and neighbors. Good update Bryan, cows look good! Hope your Christmas and New Years are Happy and Safe!

[@LuthiRanchWY]

Thanks, we are lucky with the people that surround us. Hope you and your family have a great Christmas also!

Merry Christmas!

Maybe I missed something earlier this year. Are you short on feed because of low field production or herd size?

[@LuthiRanchWY]

We didn’t have the best 2nd crop but we picked up some rented ground. We sell about 40% of the hay we put up as horse hay so it’s a bit of a juggling act keeping enough hay for the horse hay customers and having enough for the cows. Both my Dad and I increased our individual herd sizes also so that stretched our hay too.

@ Thank you. Looking forward to Calving time. Merry Christmas!!!

[@timflick2147]

I see you calve in the winter, do you have many problems with calves getting pneumonia, or death loss from freezing when first born? How do the calves do later in spring then during mud season We calve in a barn in February up in northern Wisconsin, always been to afraid to try outside that time of year as winter is similar to yours but less snow. Merry Christmas
