I feel like these ladies see Nate coming and they're all saying "my turn, my turn!"

[@DaglasVegas]

I wonder, If the cows were housed on poured rubber floors, like in some playgrounds, would that reduce hoof lesions and lameness? or are there other materials that are better for the cows wellness then concrete? and that bags the question what's more cost effective, house cows on concrete and pay a hoof trimmer to address problems when they arise, or create an environment that is less likely to induces injuries and thus require the services of a hoof trimmer less frequently.

[@randomness3362]

It’s is quite interesting. As someone who has no experience in either cow owning or different flooring cost or durability I feel like if you need to you can learn how to trim your own hooves and save money there and have the concrete flooring. That could be the most cost effective. Alternatively the rubber, would it break down due to the cow waste? I know that at least dairy farms they have the grates at the end for the waste for their milking stations but the cows aren’t in there for their sleeping quarters I believe. Yes there could be straw for bedding but I’m pretty sure it could still seep through. Quite interesting though for what different floorings could work. I’m genuinely curious about if the cow waste will ruin the rubber though

[@NatetheHoofGuy]

Rubber flooring is installed in many of the larger dairies. Maintenance trimming is needed more often though because rubber doesn’t create any wear. Extra trimming is needed to keep the foot in proper alignment and balance.

[@daveurbex]

You see, every positive brings a negative. While rubber flooring does not cause hoof injuries, on the other hand, hooves do not naturally wear down and therefore need maintenance anyway. 😁

[@LadyAnuB]

Rubber flooring is just one part of helping cows out. There are rubber stalls and other comfort items that help prevent lesions (and puss) from developing on other parts of their bodies.

Almost had a heart attack when I saw my mom go down sideways on concrete and her head connected, she was fine, but she went down while rollerskating, ergo hard. Unforgiving, indeed, we are all just a trip away from the end when we surround ourselves in it. I'll take the story of your friend and appreciate that I had two sturdy elbows to offer, cause I don't think one skull could have taken that hit from a foot and a half higher up, and one elbow would have crippled me.

I grew up in a ranching community in AZ and honestly hadn't heard of cows feet needing to be trimmed until I found these on KZbin. Most of the cattle in my area were beef cattle and were always out on pasture from calves to the time they were loaded for slaughter. I don't think any of them had been exposed to concrete which may explain why I'd never heard of cattle hoof trimming before.

[@goodiegoodygumdrops]

The creator says that rubber flooring is installed in the larger dairy farms for the cows (prevents injury) but the rubber prevents wear so they actually need their hoofs trimmed more often. I'm guessing whoever owned those animals didn't care about comfort for the cows.

[@percy7836]

@@goodiegoodygumdrops that's with dairy cows though. Op is talking about beef cows in arizona, where they're walking on packed dirt, not concrete or rubber flooring. Maybe the housing has flooring but the cows will spend more time outside. Additionally, dairy cows live a lot longer than beef, and therefore have more chance for something to go wrong / require more maintenance. Also, cattle are a huge investment of thousands of dollars each, no rancher "doesn't care" about their cattle.

Hello Gregory how’s the weather over there

[@BadHairdayKimmie]

I really wish that livestock weren't in contact with concrete and metal. As you stated, concrete is hard. Very hard. Concrete and metal are also amazingly slippery for animals with hooves, especially when wet. When concrete and metal are wet it literally is like walking on ice. Bovine poo is liquidy and they make a lot of poo every day. They also pee several gallons every day. Concrete is an easy flooring surface because it is extremely durable and can be scraped and hosed off unlike sand, soil, or any type of bedding like straw or wood chips/shavings, but at what cost? There are products made for after an injury has occurred, such as the foot blocks you use and hobbles that prevent a cows hind legs from slipping again after she has sprained or torn ligaments from slipping. I have known cows to break a bone when slipping and ending up splayed out. Creating yielding traction for a cows foot only makes sense. I know that rubber matting is a HUGE expense, but it significantly reduces slipping and, as a bonus, is a cushion. It also can be scraped and hosed off. You can even put bedding on top of mats to make the floor have even better traction as well as absorbing some of the urine and feces. With the reduction of slipping injuries for horses in wash racks, stalls, barn aisles, and trailers the mats pay for themselves. I know how easily a large hooved animal can slip and how easily the slip can injure them. Sometimes they hurt themselves getting up from a slip. I'm constantly appalled when I see livestock being moved in trailers with metal floors and ramps. I know a lot of ranchers and farmers whose theory is to just cram a lot of cattle into one trailer so they "hold each other up." But if one goes down like this they often get trampled and can die. A stock trailer can easily have rubber mats fitted over the metal floor. Just because decades of farmers and ranchers before have "done it this way" doesn't mean that there isn't room for improved husbandry. I can remember when a dairy cow wasn't trimmed unless she went lame. But often a lame cow was simply sent to the auction for meat instead of treated. Trimming their feet a couple of times a year is a VAST improvement. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

[@dethmaul]

It would be a pound of prevention being not worth an ounce of cure. You have to weigh the costs. Conditions have to be kept sanitary, you need concrete that can be sprayed off. Rubber everywhere would cost way more than just checking and trimming their feet every once in a while

[@BadHairdayKimmie]

@@dethmaul Actually, rubber flooring is becoming quite popular for cattle. Mostly for the reasons I stated. And they can be hosed down and scrubbed just like concrete. From the info section of one rubber mat company: "Polylast Livestock Flooring is a non-slip antimicrobial surface made from 100% recycled rubber combined with U.S. primers, binders, and finishes. This cushioned surface increases comfort and traction, reducing the risk of slipping and lameness. Polylast Livestock Flooring does not freeze in the winter and stays cooler in the summer, making it ideal for outdoor feed lots, watering pad surfacing, feeder pad surfacing, and livestock holding pens. It is non-porous and infused with Microban® Antimicrobial Technology reducing the risk of microorganisms, bacteria, mold and mildew while making surfaces easier to clean and sterilize.

I love cows and have had what could be called friendships with some, that's why I can't eat them, but I do love milk. They are just the sweetest animals and to see them be relived of pain in this way is very touching.

[@teammmx]

I loved this video because now I completely understand all the different steps, parts of the hoof, and why you do what you do. I just can’t stop watching you help these cows.

[@charliedresden5571]

This is only the second video of yours that I'm watching and I am mesmerized! This is so fascinating. I could watch this all day. Didn't know I needed this in my life. Thanks!

Sweet girl perked right up when she realized she could walk without pain. Cows are sweet.

I love listening to your voice. Your voice helps me understand about cow's hoof. I learned so much. Thank you.

[@sagisunshine9376]

Thank you for showing how you put their feet in that contraption! I was so curious. And it’s so sweet to see her walking at the end, surprised by how much better her hoof feels. Awesome channel!

[@tabithareyna3201]

I think your amazing at what you do and it gives me joy to watch you do your job and help animals. Over the few months I’ve watched you I have realized a lot of my friends do too. Your a great guy and I hope you know that !

Thanks Tabitha!

[@omegazero6082]

What i like to see about this kind of videos, is how there is so much work in farms that we don't actually now. I had no idea this could happen to the cows. Nice to see there is a solution for all that.

[@mcflamewang9442]

I dont know why youtube recommended these videos to me but I'm glad they did. I enjoy seeing someone take pride in their work and I like seeing animals get care because that's a nice thing to do.

[@dr.amyanna9235]

What an amazing man you are! I only have 120 Black Angus and have no problems yet with hooves. You sure are wonderful to watch your magic! Thanks!

I find these hoof trimming/treating is somewhat satisfying to watch

[@evelien2335]

I really don't know why I keep watching these videos. I don't have anything to do with cows or bull's. But it's very interesting to watch how you do the things you're doing, and by telling us why it makes it more interesting. Keep the good work going Nathan.

These are some lucky livestock to be attended to by this gentleman farrier. He can come by to trim my nails any time! Greetings from Utah. God bless.

[@dianelynn6881]

Thank you for explaining this so clearly. I was concerned that it hurt the cow when you were removing the hoof material around the injury. You do a wonderful job with these animals I'm so glad they have you to take care of them.

I have no intention or even a remote desire to be a bovine hoof trimmer... but there's an ASMR, satisfying quality about the care these cows receive that makes me want to watch them. Especially with the more morbid hooves that ooze pus.

These videos give me the same vibe as peeling the dead skin from a bad sunburn. Quite satisfying really.👍🏼

[@philanimtolo7891]

This is so satisfying to watch. Thanks man for looking out for these cows. God will bless you abundantly 👌

[@MHarenArt]

Like everyone else I can't explain my fascination with hoof trimming. I started out watching some farriers to horse shoes, and of course YT started recommending hoof trimming. Hoof GP was the first one I came across and watched him for a long time, learned a lot. Then I found your channel, and really enjoy your content as well, so I watch them both now. Why? Well, I've come to the conclusion that it's mostly about seeing the cows relieved of pain. I didn't know they had painful foot problems, so knowing they can get relief does my heart good. I'm a softie for all animals, even the big stinky poopy ones.

[@michaelrich5501]

I’m sure that cow looked around at you and said thanks, your great at your job and your videos are great and those cows love you and your viewers. Keep up your excellent work and look after yourself.
