Time For The Calves To Move Out!

[@farmhandluke5182]

Thanks for introducing us to your hard working sister , she does a great job with those calves! What a mess with them bales froze to the ground like that, thanks for the great video Jan! ✅

[@noocemiller6005]

Those calves frolicking in the new bedding! I could watch the cute little things jump and play for hours!

[@ImaginaryFae]

I really love how you keep the environment for your cows, and calves as clean as possible

[@sarahbaker3342]

Very impressed with your disinfecting process to keep your calves clean and healthy! Love your videos!

[@popquizzz]

I grew up in the restaurant business, and I thought that was the only business where there was always something to do. Watching your videos is absolute proof that there is always something to do on the dairy farm. Excellent work ethic.

[@evytimblin3269]

Enjoy watching all your videos especially this one where the calves are so happy romping around the new bedding. We also finally got to see your hair. Good job, Jan.

[@michael7423]

Seeing cows with a new bale or new bedding is my favorite thing to see, they look all hopped up on catnip or as I say cownip! It’s obviously pure joy 🐮 I love seeing you and your family working together on your farm. I hope I can shake your hand some day Jan if we ever feel comfortable shaking hands again after this virus crap! Stay safe and stay awesome Jan!!!

[@asquithmainlines699]

Of all the farm videos I watch with livestock you definitely run the cleanest operation. The attention to detail when you disinfect the calf barn shows everyone why Sask made dairy products are among the best in the world. It’s summer folks eat lots of ice cream and support these hard working individuals.

[@saulquimbaya4031]

I think you guys do a incredible job, and it shows in the care and hard work you guys put in keeping things clean, and healthy. Great job.

[@markybear92840]

Wait a second! You have hair! Get outta here! First time you've appeared without a hat! :-) And the opening...your farm...just gorgeous....love the stand of trees out front. And the barn...classy!

[@n2slugs]

Reminds me of the year I bought a calf catcher for my beef herd. All shiny and painted up attached to the four wheeler. By the end of calving it looked like it had been through a manure covered war. Equipment just never looks pretty for long with cattle!

[@priscillawatson7049]

respect! I've seen other farmers taking out the dirty floor and putting fresh clean hair again, without washing, disinfecting the ground before the new fresh hay . Well done! beautiful to see you and family make such good team work. well done

[@jjcactusandsucculents-open2156]

Love seeing the calves get there new home and fresh bedding to play in! Love your videos! Thank you for sharing!

[@robynmorris2408]

Love the new calf buggy! Such a good idea and great construction. Those heifer calves are looking so good. Nice to meet your sister...another member of the family keeping up the tradition. Great vid, thanks for the information.

[@GarthMurray1]

I've noticed one drawback to watching your channel. You originally hooked me with you're being Dutch, as is my family (de Jager). My grandparents even had a few dairy cows in Alberta back in the 50's. But now KZbin thinks I want to watch nothing but farm videos from all over the world all the time -- I don't. But I am hooked on your videos -- good job! 🐴🐴🐴

Oh so cute seeing calves frisking around in the hay and new space! Boy, all of you work really hard to keep your dairy farm working smoothly. Great job. Love the drone shots! Thank you for sharing! We love to watch - and now being confined to home, it is nice to have good content to watch. I am fussy with what we watch. Thanks for making good quality videos. Blessings to you - stay safe

The way you guys handle calves is very gentle & with care Happy to see humanity in dairy farming, hats off ...

Such an efficient, clean farm. I love how well thought out the buildings are!

[@steveadams99708]

Another great educational video Jan. Nice that your sister gets some credit/screen time! Love the way you take care of the animals. That's a cool calf mover! A joy to watch those calves cavorting around in the deep new bedding! A plus for the drone footage.

[@OZARKMEL]

Great video, you take such care with your herd. I have enjoyed KZbin over the last couple weeks since we are older folks with lung issues and have had to stay in. It's been a blessing. Thank you for creating content, I know it's a LOT of work but it is so appreciated....especially right now. :) Be well, stay safe, wash your hands, check on your neighbors and be kind!

[@sweetpea2098]

The technology you use on a daily basis is awesome! It's neat to see how efficient your farm is set up!

[@icebabysnocain]

A leaf blower would be handy to blow out the last bit of stuff instead of trying to sweep it. Saves a lot of time. Luve the vids, and your calves. Peace.

Love your drone shots, your farm is beautiful.

[@patricksmith3135]

Fascinating show. Every video you put up is sensational and unique. My hat off to you. No other dairy youtube show has your technique, originality, knowledge of subject matter, drone and music montages. And your cast is very nice too. We have seen Mom and Dad and one sister and a mention of another, plus your extra day worker. Keep them coming. The virus has caused a major shutdown of life as we have known it and everyone is asked to remain at home unless absolutely necessary to buy groceries or supplies, etc. I'm sad that corona found its way to your northern paradise.

[@saskdutchkid]

Thanks!

[@jeanniearnold7906]

Great video. I love to watch the calves hopping around the new bedding.

[@saskdutchkid]

Yea they really like it at first. Then they get bored lol!

[@hoophil]

Jan, Yes your videos are just amazing. So much better than TV! The video quality and narration are the best! I like the pen you put on the wheel loader for moving the calves, never saw something like that. Thanks for posting such great videos for us to enjoy!

[@fowlcamm]

Just love to see the pure joy of a calve when it encounters new bedding, or the first time in an open field. Love the quality of your videos,and some of the great shots you manage to pull off so well :)

[@stefj6207]

I really appreciate the fact you like to keep your yard tidy , hay and straw everywhere no matter the operation drives me nutty .

[@thomasflynn198]

The operations and logistics are so well thought out and very efficient! Well done!

Great!... as usual...must admit I got a lil bit lost listening somewhere there, finally seeing you without a cap!! Even better!

[@billbaas1402]

The calf basket is a good idea. We have one for bale forks. They work great for moving calves

[@midwesternhooftrimmer6735]

Very nice video! You have a very nice clean farm! 😊🐄

[@waynebulson941]

Loved it! So fun to have a tour of your work there on the farm. The calves seemed to love their new home. Probably enjoyed the larger space where they could actually romp. Fun to see the snow too. I'm sure you're sick of it by now. But, here in Virginia, we have not seen a ground-covering this entire winter season. Thanks for taking us along on your tour! :D

[@andrewsarles3520]

I must say your disinfecting procedure is probably the best I've seen ever! The concrete walls and plastic dividers are perfect! Nice work!

[@thomasmaphis7203]

Sir...….you do a great job on making these videos and I really enjoys watching them.... thanks so much

[@lynnmoore2664]

Really great and informative video. I like how you show everything that goes into your dairy operation. A lot of hard work goes into raising these calves and it takes a very dedicated group of people to make it work. Thanks for doing these videos, they are very educational. Take cate till next time.

[@kenlynch6332]

A lot of new information in todays vlog, well done. The calves were excited having more room to romp around the stall. Also great drone filming as usual. 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄

Beauituful video and baby calfs..we need more dairy farmers like you and 10th generation dairy man.. I just watched a horrible video about fair oak farms #cocacola and what they do with and to there baby calfs my heart breaks. Beautiful video. So happy these baby's have a great start.

[@calebwaldner6600]

Get a Stihl backpack leafblower and just blow all those shaving down instead of sweeping them its much faster plus it's also handy to clean other stuff like dust and hay and whatever you can think of. That one of the best investments we made to keep our barn tidy

[@madisonseiler9271]

I work on a dairy in western NY. I am obsessed with your barns and equipment!

[@chasitysavage8448]

Always fun to watch. Thanks

[@robhakeman5873]

I love your videos and the 10th generation both dairy farming and both with good content. I love when you fly the drone when the sun is shining on a cold Canadian winter day. How cold is it by you in Canada now ? It has been in the 30's and 40's and last week it was close to 70 but were supposed to get rain tonight and tomorrow and change to snow tomorrow and tomorrow night into Friday and a high of 20 Friday and here I thought we were going to have a early spring guess not as they say plant your potatoes in your garden on good Friday. Loved your calf video today and the calf mover wish I had both the mover and the building when I raised calves would of made it more fun not having to fight the weather and to have the milk caddy for mixing the replacer and feeding calves. Keep the videos coming and I be waiting to watch. How are you guys taking the covid 19 virus, everything is basically shutdown except the gas stations and grocery stores and City officials and workers.

[@cattygirl6663]

all farms should be like this to minimize stress and produce healthy food to eat.

[@wayneburndred7457]

Great information and nice to see other members of your team/family

[@merlewarnsholz2094]

Great video sir. Haven't been here in awhile, but I liked what you shared about moving the calves, and then the cleanup. You run a very clean setup. Had to be expensive to build it, but a lot of thought went into the design, to make that cleanup a lot easier. Blessings to you and the crew there from a retired Pastor in Davenport, Iowa.

[@puirYorick]

A longer extension lower lip on the bucket of your wheel loader might solve the issue of those bales sticking to the frozen ground. Just come in lower and scoop then grab over the top. The drone footage was very nice. Your property is impressive and quite tidy for a working farm.

[@saskdutchkid]

Extending that only to be able to move bales a little more convenient for a week or to wouldn't be necessary

[@puirYorick]

@@saskdutchkid I was picturing something that bolts on quickly with fewer than a half dozen fasteners. Welker Farms does home-made side add-ons to their big loader for scooping product more efficiently on their farming channel. It obviously comes off for serious excavation and snow plowing. You know better than I do how much the portion of wasted hay costs to: plant; feed; grow; harvest; move; store & depreciate over time then just fall into rot though so I certainly defer to you.

[@franrautiola2619]

Impressive operation, your grandfather or your great grandfather certainly did't have this type of operation, excellent job on the videos

You are quite the enterprising young man. It's a pleasure to see how knowledgeable you are about your dairy and the care given to all of your beautiful animals. One question about your new TMR. Why do you add straw?? I've never known there to be much, if any nutritional value to it at all.

Nice intro/opening segment -- to bad about the bales bailing out, only way to remedy that is to keep them up off the ground -- I realize that would be ONE BIG PALLET TYPE CONSTRUCTION, but it might pay off in the long run. It would have to be wooden or you could put down a layer of old square bales (still tied) and then every spring take the ones not being used or broken and add them to your manure pile or sell them to gardeners in Saskatoon or green houses for composting or flooring

[@michelleellsworth3886]

Very impressed on how you disinfect the calves pens. On the other hand if you can maybe go into more detail about that "GREEN MESH AROUND THOSE BAILS OF STRAW" Could you please explain more to us. Have no knowledge of it. What I got out of your statement was they grind up green mesh and all. Then you said the cows don't eat it. How is that possible? No sarcasm at all its asked with sincerity. Words can get misinterpreted. I speak to people the way I want to be spoken to. If I have nothing nice to say then I don't say it. Truly in awe of all the hard work it takes to be a FARMER. Very grateful for people like you and your family that provide us with our food. Thank you again for sharing. Sincerely, Michelle Pup Harley and Kitty Liam from Arlington, Massachusetts USA.

[@brentreid7031]

Do you have a preference to what kind of straw you grind for the TMR mix. With your bales maybe set bottom row up on end then place the next bale normal but end wise and will act as a run off and maybe space your rows a wee further apart then your bottom row wouldn't get wet from run off. Thank you for the video update eh.
