Shes On Deaths Door | Trying To Keep Animals Alive

[@stuarthedditch4874]

Have cows they said! It’ll be fun they said 🤣

[@danaridings6387]

I hope the little one pulls through!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@farmernige]

You've plenty of room use your hurdles to set up individual pens. Energy paste on the tongue helps. Get a dairy farmer to take some colostrum and bag up and put in freezer ready. Better than powdered version. Some number of twins!

[@davidriley5585]

We used to have an injection that we'd put in the calfs tongue. Can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

[@nathannesbitt6148]

Afew more individual pens would be a good idea using hurdles also try to get some colostrum from a dairy farmer better than the powder

Cracking vid The joys of being a Farmer Crawford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍👍

[@jshmchwht]

Wow what a tough night! Hang in there!!

[@meghainn2010]

🤞🏻the wee one pulls through. As people have said - calf jackets, plenty of heat lamps and have a section of the new shed sectioned off in to individual pens to match thr rough estimate of calves due. You did well under the pressure 👍🏻

[@henryjohnsen77]

you should get some calf jackets mate

[@f1acha]

Ended on a cliffhanger ya bandit ! Hopefully she pulled through.

[@stevenboyd5044]

What a night.

[@davidjackson6510]

That Job List is growing night & day, good luck with the calving and rearing, must be well into it in real-time

[@Doubledazzlers]

Love the videos. Hope the calf pulls through

[@AlanStevenson135]

Surely the scan man should be picking up all they twins..🤔

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Scanned very late so can’t pickup twins

[@krisshutler]

Keep our fingers crossed for you mate.

[@Thea_MojaveOutliersWhipmakers]

Live and learn, eh? ;) I hope the calf made it, a cutie pie!

[@Thea_MojaveOutliersWhipmakers]

...I came over here from Sandi Brock, so this is only the 2nd vid of yours I've watched so far...cheers!

[@stevenbooth445]

good luck mate its all go

[@willyfindlay4398]

Cammy of the Sheep Game never has to fear you encroaching on his subject of his videos 😅. Enjoy the Scotland match tomorrow 😊

[@danjdclark]

It's Saturday 24th wishing you all the best with your narrow defeat in the Calcutter Cup. Much love from East Anglia ❤️ 🏉

[@danjdclark]

Bugger! Well played Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@TheSparkysdog]

🙏🙏 fingers crossed for the little one 🤞🤞🤞

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

Twins everywhere you look. That is unreal. Hope wee calf pulls through.. Coming into the world backwards is rough.

[@bobcrawford2105]

Struggles of calving over next few weeks will be never ending But at least your in the new shed

[@jimwadland7728]

Twins to a cow is like a treble to a ewe, bloody nuisance! Welcome to livestock farming good luck with the rest of them

[@ScottSnow-f4p]

Have you every thought about a calf warmer.

[@MagnumCamNZ]

Ol ear tags on elastic bands for calf collars so can note down who had what till tag the calves is what we do on dairy herd calving in field and can have 30 calves a night.

[@boabc3279]

Was the extension unwound fully? If not maybe that’s why the breaker was tripping. Be lots of heat in a spooled cable. Check it’s not melted any of it

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Yeh was all the way out

[@lauram6156]

Would gate lady let the little calf stay in the house?

[@garymadden2656]

Great video Crawford it’s all happening a few calf jackets are the thing to get next keep up the good work no bother to you 💪👌👌👌

[@michaelminers2612]

Done everything you can ,fingers crossed, if you like your job, with animals ,there's nothing better than helping a life and nothing worse than losing it .M

[@malcsco]

You’re having a time of it Crawford

[@stevenboyd5044]

How do you survive the A9? ....proper skills.

[@JohntyNich]

Would be worth getting a sled for moving calves. Did you have a bull pen free for isolation? Doubt you will get such a run of twins again but would be handy to get them separated while the cows and calves get bonded. It will be a lot easier next year when you’ve ironed out your teething issues…

[@jameswardle7977]

Get cows they said it’ll be fun they said 😳 fair play to you you did what you could we’ve got a couple of calf jackets after having experience like this. Just watch yourself with cows with new calves in the middle of the night with no one else around. There’s no one to hear you call for help this is coming from experience. Great videos showing the good and the bad.

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Cheers, few people suggesting a calf jacket or two 👍🏼

[@user-qj2ge5hz4d]

I wouldn't put a jacket on a wet calf, it's rare that you need jackets for Sucklers. Heat lamp should do the trick. Hope he survives, you've done your best , got him warm and got him fed. Twins can go either way.

[@ked7221]

The joys of cattle.

[@danielrust8001]

Great video again have them water bowls not got a bottom inlet ? Then the pipes would be under the bowl rather than going up and over them?

[@Sean-fb7cy]

Tube of red start gives them a great boost

[@chriskane1085]

Need a set of calf booster colostrum stomach tube with bag special calf booster paste calf jacket and gloves so not cross pass disease from one cow to other

[@HootMaRoot]

Tom Pemberton just changed his Angus bull because all his cows were having twins because of him. if he carried on producing twins do you think you will have to change your Angus bull?

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Bit confused, only 3 sets total last year…

[@JohntyNich]

I also think it was down to him getting dangerous and big calves especially in relation to his heifers 🤷‍♂️

[@Rich-kx4qm]

Pemberton got rid of bull cos calves were BIG & the bull was mental!!

[@JohntyNich]

@@Rich-kx4qm 🤣👍

[@HootMaRoot]

@@Rich-kx4qm just looked back and yup was for massive calves, now you got me looking for the farmer that changed their bull because so many cows had twins

[@dfgaJK]

Gonna need a bigger shed at this rate😆

[@paddy294]

That’s farming for ye unpredictable at the best of times

[@DM123hillandvalley]

With the water drinkers in the pens get a SUEVIA DRINKING BOWL IDEAL bc you can put the water line from the top down or from the ground straight up, we have them get great job

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

Will have a look cheers

[@AmandaDoll-hi4dr]

How are your new cows and bulls and calefs? Good job on your Fram

[@tealjacks9125]

the calf will survive because you will make it happen ...

[@2403harry]

Fingers crossed

[@AlanChalmers-lc2un]

Hope the calf gets better! Still a good start for calving. Not very well organised young lad.

[@5556424315465]

I thought you would’ve taken the calf home , more heat at home and gate lady wouldn’t have minded.

[@johnbowen4525]

Why not put a small square or triangular calf creep pen behind the feed bunker so they can go chill away from the cows when they want.

[@CrawfordsFarm1]

That calving pen doubles as a creep

[@davidrae6332]

have you heard of sds drills😂😂😂😂

[@georgearmstrong9106]

animals eh you need abedroom in that shed you ll get their i know you will
