TRYING SOMETHING BRAND NEW... PUSHING THE FARM TO THE NEXT LEVEL!?

[@tomvarley1081]

Thank you Tom for your video today it’s really helping me today it’s been two years since my dad died from a cancer and he died at 4:30 pm your videos have helped me cope with it

[@Blue_G_41s]

I know they say everyone grieves different but after 2 years, if your still being strongly affected you need to speak to someone.

[@tytheboss8528]

@@Blue_G_41swhat an insensitive thing to say. Losing a parent is something most people never forget. It may seem like people “get over” the grief but, in reality, they just learn to hide/cope with it. The grief is always there, bubbling right beneath the surface. It’s completely ok to grieve a parent for two years. I’ll agree that therapy can help but don’t act as if it’s unusual or not ok for someone to grieve a parent for an extended period of time.

[@HuntsChris]

Grief is like swimming in the ocean, for the most part you can bob up and down with the rhythm of the waves, but every once in a while a wave will catch you off guard and crash over your head, even when you know it’s coming. And that’s ok, as long as you remember that one rogue wave doesn’t last for ever, you’ll be ok, and over time, those rogue waves become less severe and less frequent until you are back to bobbing up and down with the rhythm of the ocean.

[@kepeti86]

Best advice I had about dealing with grief came from the film Wind River. It describes how you must not run from the pain but embrace it. If you run from the pain aka thinking of your dad you risk losing all those memories of him. Once you take the pain you will allow yourself to visit him in your mind and remember all those wonderful times you had together. Take the pain!

Good one Tom, the farm looks so large and modern. I was looking back when I first started watching you. So many changes everything looks so nice.

Happy belated birthday, to dad.

Happy late birthday to your dad 🎉🎊🥳 Cow's are looking great. Another great video. You get rain, we're getting snow this morning 😢

Hi Tom. I like how you’re always willing to change things up to improve you stock.

[@maryblackhursthill6249]

Great to see an "everyday" video of moving/feeding/bedding cows. I love seeing your stock. Nice little Hereford there, among the black Angus. As you say, easy to spot and monitor.

Love watching your videos I use to work on a large dairy farm we use to milk 950 cows 3 times a day long days I so miss working on it now

[@ianwoolley5329]

When are u going to ollys to finish ur bucket brush???

[@OldGuyAdventure]

Have you looked into DDGS that would come from a Brewery? After the brew, the mash is often dried and sold as cattle feed. During the brewing process, the barley gets heated with something called a Jet cooker, and then when it gets soaked as a mash, it partially sprouts, thus releasing its sugars for the fermenting yeast to eat. But the protein is left untouched, so the brewery often dries it to sell as feed.

[@lukeharcus6527]

Draff is generally high in protein not starch as the starch is what they take out of it for distillation

[@StuartTaggart89]

It’s the little things Tom …….. cow kicks gate, ba ba baaaaaa 😂 top drawer editing. Appreciated sir 👏🏼

[@46rambo49]

barley is a good choice, we raise 3-4000 head a year, Old Guy suggestion of Brewery leavings is a good one as well. It's all about the marbling , Prices are up right now. We have to keep and eye on the herd, they keep getting pinched by rustlers

[@caithnessrailrambler2698]

Farm I used to work on years ago would get the hot draff to feed the cattle from the distillery After mashing and the cattle was mad for it dairy cattle too. In Scotland Draff would come from Old Pulteney Distillery.

[@michaelodonoghue7464]

Gates are vital to successful animal farming. Having the proper Gates, positioned in the proper places and functioning properly, makes animal farming much easier and simpler. And if you want to gauge the success of a farm look at its boundary Gates. If they are in good condition and functioning correctly, the farm is successful. But if the boundary Gates are in poor condition or not functioning correctly, then the farm has problems.

[@craigdoig9486]

Worked on a barley bull beef unit in the 80s finishing at 12 months about 410kg. DLwG about 1.5 kg at the end. Have to take care getting them onto ad lib. Not the best beef though. I always say beef needs birthdays, a couple of years grazing and housing to build flavour and texture

[@erictrace]

Happy birthday to the Ginger Warrior, if I remember correctly! Hope you’re having a great Start to your New Year!

[@mitchellholliday9023]

With relation to the barley it's something to try with just the cost of the feed. Then later if you do see a change in the condition of the stock you could justify getting a new bin to save money on the treated barley. Grate video

[@lolasimmons9152]

Happy belated birthday to your dad! He's just wonderful and cares so much about you and the farm!

Thank you for another lovely video. I love your videos! You are so caring for your animals and managing them so carefully. It's lovely to see that your animals are so calm, well conditioned and happy with themselves! The Christmas tractor is so fun! And happy birthday to your dad!

[@philipkimber6302]

well done team. Back to what we did, probably the same time as the story about the Aryshire beef. We rolled our own which was a lot of work. wise to alkali coat it otherwise the rats will queue up! so different nowadays as rats are not allowed, thankgoodnedss.

[@homendryalkasystems]

Great to see you trying Alkabarley on your farm Tom! Alkalised diets, when incorporated into a balanced diet, can help improve rumen pH and function, supporting performance and animal health. Alkagrain is a proven method of safely feeding higher levels of starch with home-grown cereals in diets for ruminants!

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Interesting to hear how the barley can have different affects on the cows depending on if it’s cracked or not. I’ve also heard of feeding livestock sprouted barley as a substitute for hay. They say it’s great for cows, left me wondering what affect it would have vs what you are doing now. Wishing you and your family the best.

[@andrewbuhler1743]

Happy birthday Pemberton senior.

[@claretbuck1882]

Happy birthday the ginger ninja 🥳🎉

[@conortobin8474]

We fatten all our cattle off of rolled barely and silage off our own farm every year

[@gregdevereux3798]

You pose an interesting question. I always thought the plural of Angus was Just Angus, not angus'es . Or should it be Anguy cattle. If the crushed barely doesn't produce desired weight look at earlage corn silage , ir steam rolled corn or wheat or barely. Steam rolling or flake has great ROI.

[@dmagil01us]

[@GotAnUmbrella]

Tom, have you heard of the new rings that are lidocaine-infused? LIDOBAND can be used on calves and I think it would be SO awesome if you could manage to talk to people that use them. I think it is such a game changer for farm animal welfare.

[@F1daddy123]

We used to finish off our beef with straw and just poured molasses over it, they loved it, it bulked them out, and at the time it was a cheaper alternative for the extra cake needed to finish them off

[@tom4412]

No that was the dry suckler cows that were having the straw molasses. The fattening cattle were in a different shed being fed a TMR

So many questions but I feel they are too personal to ask.. great work as always

[@hughmarcus1]

Interesting about the treatment of the barley. In my experience the risk of acidosis going straight onto Barley can be quite high. Untreated it’s obviously not as palatable as a feed with molasses in it. The risk is that one animal takes to it well before the others & gets too much.

[@marjoriebell4956]

Cows are looking great! How is the one doing that had 1/2 hoof amputated? Excited for spring release. Love and prayers 😇💜

Think the first job is bedding up for those beef animals. Why are they so dirty😳 Maybe worth bedding up with a few bales. Or clean out and start fresh. Ours eat outside on a concrete yard and walk back into the barn and don’t get that dirty even with the recent rainfall. Top video again though 👌🏻😊 Rolled barley looks ideal. I know a bucket full is 10kg 😂

Tom- hows storing that batley go down with the farm assurance, red tractor scheme? I know theyre not likely to pass that from past experience, esp as its on here for all to see now?? Just asking??

Question Tom, what does the alkalai on the barley do? Does it kill the rats or does it make them think it's not food? I have no idea which cattle when where and why, but watching them move about was fun.
