Sale Day: 3 Semi Loads of Calves

[@justgawkin2418]

You've got the same arrangement with your dad that I had with mine when I was in high school. I had a small row crop patch attached to a bigger field that belonged him. The first year I got paid for that was either 1969 or 70 and the first check I got was for $1600. He handed me that check and said that was more money than he made the year I was born. The first thing I bought was a beer for the two of us. Mine was of the root variety though!

[@Rob89139]

The next time you're whining about the cost of beef, it's time to recognize Cole earned a whopping $88 a day and the work doesn't look easy. The cost of food has nothing to do with the farmer they are busting their humps 365 days a year. Time to focus on those who are driving costs through the roof and support those who are growing it. This channel has given me a new appreciation for the American Farmer. In the words of Brian Sonne, "That's all I have to say about that".

[@ben-jam-in6941]

Great comment, making a great point!

[@Woody_A]

Sonne Frames makes my day, when you upload. So good to see a Father, Son and Uncle. Work together, Congrats on the up coming nuptials. Farm Hard , Love Harder.

[@troypatton7791]

Ranchers deserve a big raise!! Hard work, huge inputs, and massive risk should count for something!! You really have great looking cattle, and you videos are great!! Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!!!

[@gingerbaker4579]

ROFL. Could you show your ignorance anymore? Ranchers work for themselves. What raises the profits is supply and demand. So tell your dorky friends, tell your dorky neighbors, tell your dorky relatives to stop whining about slaughter houses and meany farmers ... to shut up and eat beef. Only way ranchers would make more money.

Not many young people get the help from their parents like you have keep up the good work and you have good cattle working corrals

[@s.pursell8901]

Brian for what's its worth. Thank you for keeping Cole interested in farming. It's a ruff life and lifestyle that only a few can ever be proud of. And you sir (and Tammy) should be very proud of this young man.

[@thomaswalker6522]

Agreed!

[@jamesburkham1359]

@Gurpreet Singh you are a idiot.

[@Z3R0US]

@Gurpreet Singh more like they feed millions of people , they were made to eat or they would run wild and ruin this world u know that right ?

[@JohnVanRuiten]

I'll bet they are!

[@jessehachey2732]

@Gurpreet Singh Farming has been around for centuries 🙄🤦🏼‍♂️GTFOH with your BS…if you wanna eat nothing but leafy greens, have at er. Stop trying to shove your manufactured outrage down people’s throats. Pathetic 🤡🙄

[@drdulas5055]

Your videos bring me happiness and sadness. Happy to see how you two work so well together and your agreement. Sad because I worked for 25 years building my dad's 4 million dollar operation by the hour with him claiming I was working for my future but in the end my two sisters got every penny and I got nothing, He claimed the farm could not support two families and I had to leave because I could not pay my insurance, heating and groceries and other bills on my $500 a month income. He went from milk 70 head of dairy year around and farming 1200 acres to selling the cows and dropping to 600 acres of the land he owned after I left. One of those family things that I had two deaths in one year. My dad's death and the day the will was read and I was intentionally omitted completely from the will. Even with me leaving my dad and mom and I always got along and not any idea it would go that way it did. The two sisters never ever had a thing to do with the farm. I guess greed has no boundaries. Thanks for your great videos Cole and I hope my wife and I can drive the 4-5 hours this summer to meet you guys. Thanks again. Any RV parks in your area?

[@kofig5519]

This is heartbreaking. Sorry bruv. Pick yourself up and don't ever ever give up

[@alanatolstad4824]

I loved the drone footage and sweet music. ---Auctioneers are amazing! Phew!---All great success to you folks.---And Jeff, talking for the camera is not his strong suit, but I appreciate it when he does!

[@michaelg.5862]

Cole and Brian - it’s always a pleasure to watch your videos! I always smile. Thanks for working so hard to feed our world. And just because, Storla Station!

[@davidkimmel4216]

Every father and son operation is different. As long as everyone is happy it’s no one else’s business. It is a great operation 👍👍👍

[@1striperon]

That was darned impressive. Brian was on the phone last fall buying cattle because you had enough feed for more. He was right. And then to load three semis full, steers and heifers looking good and ready for finishing, means applause for Jeff, Brian, and Cole. Drone footage was great, too, showing how you handle that number of cattle. A top notch video.

[@williammerry4746]

Fascinating! Great drone shots. Well now, CEO Cole? Ever since I watched your talk on starting your KZbin channel I knew you would excel at whatever you did. Don't spend that check all on your wedding now. Great working relationship with your dad. and your uncle. But you and your dad are the best. God bless and keep you. You inspire young farming entrepreneurs.

[@bobbiemooser7417]

Your cattle look so healthy and happy. I really appreciate how you handle them with kindness and respect. After all, these animals give their lives to grace our dinner table and fill our bellies. I also love the fact that you use the “slappy” and not the nipping, biting dogs. I see at the auction that Sonne farms has built up quite up a reputation in the industry. High standards and hard work pays off👍❤️👍

[@jonjonasson4115]

You guys are the best! Love your episodes. Feels like I'm visiting old friends!

[@corefamilyresources]

Love to see cattle trucks! My dad’s livestock trucking company was Barnett & Gardenhire , Inc. He retired in the mid 1980s.

[@barbthomas4492]

I hope you continue to do your videos. I seriously doubt that anyone minds any repetition in any of them. I love the interaction between you and your dad! I also agree with the other comments...you all deserve a raise for the work you do!

[@harveyaho4523]

Another great video Brian and Cole I think it's great that a father and son are able to work together along with Jeff!!!!! So proud of all the hard work you guys do and it shows with the trucks load of cattle going down the road!!!!! I wish there more family's wether it be daughters or son's take over the family farms!!!! We need more young family farmers!!!!!! And again support STORLA STATION!!!!

[@thomaswalker6522]

Buy a tee shirt at least!🙂

[@harveyaho4523]

I have bought a couple t-shirts and a hat from STORLA STATION plus SONNE FARM stocking hat!!!!!

[@raykrv6a]

The check was nice. Can't wait to see the wedding. You do a good job with the videos on your activities and the KZbin income is well deserved.

[@jamespetty9545]

I love it when you guys show numbers. I really liked it when Jeffrey was going over the ingredients to the cow feed how many pounds of this and that went into it. It made it seem more personal to me.

[@desertdweller4951]

Glad to hear reimbursement day was a success. All that hard work 365 days finally paid off. And just like that your right back where you started. Congratulations Sonne Farms Family, may your next season be even more successful and fulfilling. Good health and happiness.

[@dwaynekoblitz6032]

The Drone footage was beautiful. Right in the middle of the morning. Well done, Cole. That's a load of Beef!! Congrats on payday, and once again the Wedding. Watching y'all HEP cattle is always a great thing.

[@SonneFarms]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@gardenlady3814]

I can't thankyou enough for all of the hard work you put in to raising cattle. Your videos are great and I look forward to each one of them. It was great to see Jeff too! Thank you so much!

[@jeffmaxwell5341]

Congrats on sales You gentlemen deserve every penny you receive and much much more 24/7 of hard work and critical decision making Thanks for feeding us and giving us great entertainment at the same time 😊

[@garthsheane2440]

Drone shots of the cattle loading were great, Cole. I drove a cattle liner once about 100 miles while the real driver caught some Zs. Pay days don't come around that often for the farmer, and when they do, it's best not to try to work the number back to an hourly wage. It's a long term proposition, for sure. So glad there are young men still willing to put on their boots every morning and keep the family farms going. Thanks for the video.

[@briansonne814]

This is a very nice comment. Thanks Garth!

[@SonneFarms]

Right on!

[@bethrowlette8933]

I loved the drone view of the truck coming in as well as the cows being rounded up..that combined with the music for some reason is both captivating and soothing! Love that sound and view! Keep up the good work Ce and Brian! May God continue to be the guiding force behind all you do!😊😊

[@sammydiamond6115]

he def earned every single dollar of that check . father and son working side by side on the farm puts a big smile on my face . keep up the great work .

[@Gardendreamsforme]

I absolutely love this channel and your family does my old heart good! To watch a father, son, brothers and uncle getting along and enjoying each other’s company is certainly heartwarming

[@colleenlaviolette5905]

What a relief to sell so many, they were so healthy and beautiful!

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for a great video on sale day. Was most interesting. Thanks for doing the drone and music on sale day when the trucks come. To me, when the big haulers come it is time to benefit from a lot of hard work. Nice haulers you had come. Good equipment. Bad on the day our livestock were hauled by straight truck and can remember when the new trailers of today came out we thought that was first class. I would always ride to the sale barn with the last truck, was a big deal for me. I thought the sale barn gave Sonne Farms some real good words as the sale started. Lived in Mitchell for a year and have been to the sale barn there many times. Good one. I am super pleased that Brian and Cole did well at the sale barn. You both are most deserving for your efforts at having such excellent livestock for sale. People in the area know that name. Congratulations to both of you!!!!!’ Cole glad you did well. Do appreciate you seeing a good income off your herd. Know you have that wedding coming up, hang in there. You and your dad have an outstanding setup the way you work your income and working with dad on the farm. Brian , my compliments to you for getting your son up on his feet and having a good arrangement on what you give Cole for his part of the farm operation. Brings back a lot of memories back in my day. I worked on two family farms and had good arrangements with both on how I was rewarded. Good to see Jeff and have him in the conversations. Hi to Jeff. Trust he did well also. Happy day for me with your video. Really pleased you both did well on the sale. You both are excellent herdsmen and pleased you were rewarded. High fives for Sonne Farms!!!! Glad you are getting rain for the crop land. Fertilizer such has went up in price-wow. Put an armed guard on that load you got/ha!!!! Good punch line for Storla Station. Trust business continues to increase all the time. Your videos make my day. So enjoyable and makes my heart glad at the wonderful relationship Cole and Brian have!!!!! Just great!!!! Guess I better be quiet before you shut me off. You both take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@shirleysousa9739]

You have great team work. Cole you were blessed with very supportive and loving parents. They have taught you patients kindness and the value of family

[@bjrnhjjakobsen2174]

You guys deserve every penny - teaching people about responsible farming is hard work👏

[@yeahman1756]

man i don't it's something about that early good morning at a ranch that makes me feel good... watching cattle work like this.. sippin on my coffee.. it's probably the scenery with animals.. it's so calming..

[@donnaparrish7638]

There’s those Sonne boys raising beevos and feeding folks! Wore my Storla Station today to Muskogee, Ok at the open air market. A total stranger walking past me said “Storla Station” and I replied, “Storla Station.” We kept on walking, neither one stopped. Thanks guys for all your hard work and sharing it with us. God bless America.

[@SonneFarms]

😂😂😂 amazing

[@rogerfuhr8067]

Great video. Many times, farming is a good life, but a poor living. When you enjoy what you’re doing it’s worth a lot. I’m still doing it at 75, backgrounding steers, and still enjoying it. You will soon have a wife with a job in town (every farmer’s dream).

[@darrellbarber7589]

Cole, another great video! Growing up on our family dairy farm here in Missouri my parents had a similar arrangement with me concerning my cattle - they provided all of the feed & vet care for my cattle in exchange for my labor on the farm. Those cattle paid for my first car and then put me through college.

[@richleyden6839]

I found the financial discussion interesting, especially how a family bussiness works. Thanks for sharing. I realize that it could be "too personal" and a little touchy subject. It's great that you are relaxed and confident enough to share. That said, I have wondered how the close cooperation with Jeff has any financial component.

[@AntwonTX]

I wish more people saw this and see how hard people actually work. Not to discount anybody else who works hard but farming is indeed the backbone of the world. I have 633 acres here in Texas and couldn't imagine doing this everyday. Thank you guys for the insight into your work.

[@Sassafras30]

Jeff is a real introvert. He has a lot to say but not to the camera. Nice guy, salt of the Earth.

[@Dan-qy1rg]

Congrats on the sale of your calves. My son and I have a similar setup on our farm. It's not easy to explain, but it works for us. Great video, thanks for sharing, have a great weekend!

[@mattrydalch3085]

Great video Cole and Brian! I appreciated the cow’s sensitivity to the camera when calving!

[@antonhuman8446]

Thank you for your reply. Man. Am I impressed with your farming operation. Very well done. Sir. And your assistance. God bless.

[@stevenicoson6670]

Hi, me again. Forgot to add really looking forward to the day you have your bull calf’s sold and picked up. Great you do a feed for those that come. Your reputation sells your livestock. Another good day for the both of you. Bye. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

[@nancyclark2964]

Thank you for feeding America! I appreciate your hard work and efforts!

[@chriscook8076]

I believe I’d put an armed guard on that fertilizer considering how expensive it is right now. The economics of how you guy’s run that place shouldn’t matter to anyone but you. The most important thing is that you keep your heads above water and that Brian passing on what his Father knew to you and so on is the most important part in that way of life because it’s working. Thanks as always for the content and hopefully that’s also helpful. Make it all count!

[@paulprigge1209]

Keep moving forward and take the setbacks as learning lessons!! And keep the videos coming 👍👍👍

Great video brian and cole, I like when you show the cattle being loaded onto the lorries and in the sale ring. Well done to you both on how much they made for you 👍. That cheque will pay for a fine wedding for you both cole 😁. Please make a video on the bull sale day and all that you do and eat on that day. 👍

[@tommychew6544]

Great video, always like seeing a payoff day for at least some of the hard work you guys do, can't wait to see Bull Day! Make sure to soak in every little bit of knowledge you can from your Dad on the side of things that most don't know. Never take for granted the time you have to learn from him the finer points of the overall business side of it.

[@rogerquenault7207]

If the adverts are what’s needed to keep you going its no big deal I will still watch your channel as the content is real life documentary of cow farming. Keep up the good work.

[@marcmendes6961]

[@kellegaus6457]

I work for a Cardiologist who also raises Beef Cattle, he is currently raising one for me!! It will be ready in July. I told him that I watch your channel and have learned SO MUCH it really shows a whole appreciation for the work you put into raising the cattle and buying beef. It is the circle of life and there should not be any shame in your game. I will send you a picture of my steer !! Much Love from Louisville Kentucky, Kelle.

Great video, thx for showing, love it when uncle Jeff’s on and talking, glad it was a good pay day you all deserve every cent and more, would love to know more about cost Of selling I’m sure we would all be shocked at the amount it really costs, thx guys have a great day,stay safe

[@RealJohnWayne]

Hey there Brian and Cole, I hope you're all well and good! Great video Cole! The drone footage was outstanding, your best yet! Y'all have one of the best loading/handling layouts I've seen, and the drone really let's your viewers see how it's laid out, easy on the bovine, as well as you guys! 👍 I wonder what Brian's thinking about buying, something green?? 🤔 I hope y'all have a good one! "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸

[@barbcoleus]

Love this video. Love the drone footage. And seeing how sales go. What a great job you folks do. Positive thought to all you farmers who feed us. And I do appreciate what the animals are for us. They have been treated well. Ans while people are feeling sorry for the animals how about you folks look around at the veterans who are humans and see if they can be treated better. Sorry Sonnes didn’t mean to bring up an issue on your wonderful videos. Carry on

[@kevinsterne590]

Did anyone catch the "whoops" with the cattle running away from the load in during one of the overhead shots or was that just me? Noticed someone trying to stop them with a slappie and closing the gate but without success, doh! I'm not a farmer but I've had that feeling before, love how relatable y'all are.

[@h2recoveryteam2]

First off, Great video guys. I watch a bunch of different channels. I do have to say that I do look forward to seeing yours each time. You always have great content. You try to always keep it upbeat. I have read comments on other channels from people that do not have the smallest idea of what it takes to run an operation like yours. Myself, I do not have the experience of it, out of my pocket. Yet, have the experience of working it as a ranch/farm hand. So I know where your money goes. These comments from people saying wow love how rich you are and I see you just got a new truck or what ever. They do not see the cost of fuel, feed, seed, fertilizer, vet bills. That list just keeps going on. The days of only having one or two tractors is long gone. Yes, if you only read the amounts of checks you receive. You made a lot of money from your cattle, grain or what ever it is you are paid for. Then if they were to see what bills you paid out of those checks. They would run as far and as fast as they could away from it all. I truly respect you guys in the fact that you and your Dad, The Brian, along with Jeff keep going and going. I know Brian is proud of you for wanting, from what I see. To carry on in his shoes to keep the family business going. I want to add this last thing. Like what you did with your new loading/working pins. I would of loved having that to work cattle growing up. LOL With us, we started the day before fixing the coral so they do not jump out or go through the fence. When you work cows. Every time you do, I say you guys have it easy. LOL. Great job Cole on your channel. BTW, who is going to do the camera work at your wedding?

[@leeforeman3656]

Spot on drone work Cole. The cattle sale went well for you and your family. I'm not sure about the price of fertiliser in the states, in britain it's gone up to £1200 per ton of nitrogen. The effort you and your family in, not just feeding the nation but also showing the working of the farm is great. 👍

Happy to see that you got some good sale prices and some rain coming in too! We have had another wacky weather time going from snow & ice to 65 degrees over just one day. Sure hoping for more moisture for sure. I saw a packaged Stroopwaffle at the store the other day so I had to try it out of course. I can see why the excitement over these things is very real. YUM!

[@Maxprofits101]

From an Australian perspective; I worked it out at about 362kg/animal, $1140/head Australian dollars, so $3.15/kg live weight. (I hope I got that right) Compared to the current sale yard figures here is Victoria, those same animals would sell to around twice that amount ($6-6.8/kg), perhaps more given the large number of cattle in one pen (feedlots here pay more for larger pen sizes as there are less health issues as the cattle are already socialised and thus suffer from less stress). Also the cattle are close to ideal entry weight for a feedlot job. Great video, I really enjoy watching your videos and appreciate looking at how you go about the job in your part of the world.

[@look4terry]

My wife and I watched this video right after a nice steak dinner. These steaks came from our last two cows that gave us calves every year for probably 12 years. Sweet Pea and Daisy May had good lives. Luckily I didn't have to make a living raising cattle. I was a bad farmer and over fed them. Marbled is a little of an under statement. They were 15 years old when we had them slaughtered but the beef just melts in your mouth. I love the flavor of mature beef, my wife, not so much. Thanks for what you do. We need people like you.

[@alexdrake9931]

Congrats on the good sale. Neighbor Ned saw that check you got and wanted me to ask you to invest in his latest " can't miss get rich quick" idea. He's trying to invent a velcro system where your have velcro bands surgically implanted on your body and that way, you put the other half of the velcro on your pants and hats . You won't need a belt on your pants and your hat won't fly off either during a windstorm. He also said that they can put velcro on barstools at the Elks Club too and that way you don't fall off your stool .
