TRADING 1 STEER FOR 6 CALVES!

[@TABrown-xh7xc]

Glad to see the guard cat is on duty and checking in the new recruits. I am waiting to see how long it stays with them, funny if it stayed after they are grown .

[@healingsprings11]

Cute ginger cat ! The babies are so cute to watch when they're happy and jumping around. 🐮

[@dawnreed6229]

I'm so excited to see how your year goes with these new calves!!!

[@damojj24]

Same ya can you please do a vid of moving cows

[@Stella77_7]

I'm raising 3 Holstein Angus X stears this year along with one of my own Jerseys that should be here in Apri. Just waiting for all the Ladies to drop their babies at the Diary farm I work at. However I get the little guys for free after 5 days if moms costume. Calf priced are so low in our neck of the woods it cost the dairy farmer money to ship to the auction. Enough meat for my family and a few CSA members.

[@brendafaithlanelane7914]

I love the way you care for your animals. Cows are my favorite. Thank you

[@benburns5995]

The kitten seems to like to be around you and the bottles calves. I would think with their size the kitten would be scared of them. Hope all your hard work pays off this year.

[@FarmandHammer]

Yeah for some reason he hangs with the calves more that our other cats haha

You came acrossed in recommendations n glad you did. Love it

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

Great videos man! We don’t buy near as many as you but we buy some every year. I’ve learned and changed some things we do from watching your videos. Keep it up!

[@ronhooks1123]

Keep em coming!! Calves that is!! Love your videos. Peace from SW Florida 😇!!

[@jacobkraupp5480]

I’m getting some calves over spring break. SO EXCITED 😆

It’s my second set of calves

[@troycox1288]

Are the bottle calves and one more thing the calves are here 😂

[@rogerfuhr8067]

Keep adding those heifers to your cow herd. Cow herd plus job, equals good future. You’re doing great 👍.

[@HeritageFarmsTexas]

Great video. That’s covering a lot of ground and getting it done. Nice. Just now started following. 👍

[@Nick-rh5tk]

The little kitty is the real star of this video

[@MrHowe-rm1pn]

Looks like a fun job to do👍

[@reneloper9074]

Six for one isn't so bad, think about when it comes to sell what you don't keep, hopefully the prices will be in your favor. They are really nice looking babies they should grow fast. I enjoy watching your videos and seeing a very hard working young man make a living for himself. What about a video of you singing to the baby's ....you have a great voice.

[@jacobkraupp5480]

Your vids actually help me raise my calves

[@jamestimmons2868]

I was wondering if you had a problem with calves going blind after they are weaned off of the bottle

[@dc4334]

I have a preemie calf that I can’t get to take a bottle that I tube twice a day. She drinks water. How long can the milk stay out for before it goes bad do you think?

[@pammedinaful]

awesome vid, good looking calves

[@blacklisterd]

So why d you separate them? Why not have them all in one big pen? Never mind I caught you said why @ 14:25

[@hesseontop6187]

I feel bad for the ones in the sun

[@barbaradeselle9087]

Exactly. I drive by field after field with no shade and the temperature is 100 degrees or more, sometimes 108 or 110. What are these livestock ranchers thinking? So sad and inhumane.

[@Lisa0809]

Lol i love it feed them babies 🤣🤣🤣 my baby chicks are the same atm. Im constantly making them food or they don’t shut up

[@josethegamer2874]

The new ones

[@michael7423]

I love the loud mouth!

[@jaeoaktrees1649]

I just started watching you, is this your ranch? Or are you a ranch hand ?

[@adamceballos1672]

Do you make your own milk with milk replacer or milk a cow?

[@rodrigochacon7273]

Hi, I really enjoy your videos and I been able to learn a lot from’em. How often do you feed them calves? And how you do it, just bottle or buckets?

[@AviaryBirdsAndCo]

Just found your channel, great video, new subscriber here!

[@62jenjen]

How long do you have to bottle feed the calves?

[@agentyork496]

6:04 I died laughing.

[@boathead22000]

that one calf was taking off.

[@FarmandHammer]

Barely caught her before she got to the road haha

[@johnfarmer1691]

be kind to cows

[@AvidOutdoors0]

Nice vid i have a small farm I have cattle goats chickens

[@damojj24]

I help my friend with his cows

[@keithweedt7236]

What state do you live in?

[@GORT70]

MMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Hyperjohn78]

How old is barn cat?

[@karenhorn6685]

How old was the steer? Thank you!

[@jmullins528]

How old are the calves you got and how many times a day are you supposed to feed a 2 to 3 week old calf

[@FarmandHammer]

The calves I got in this video were about 5 days old. You need to feed them milk every 12 hours for at least 6 weeks or later. You can take them off of milk once they are eating a few pounds of calf starter a day.

[@timskutnik4397]

So are you going to add the 10 heifers to your herd? Are you gunna make those bulls steers or grow them as herd bulls?

[@FarmandHammer]

I may keep the heifers as cows but I’ll wait to see how they grow. All of the bull calves will turn into steers.

[@cheshillyard2870]

lovely new calves ,you sure like hard work Hugs mate

[@jasonbrown943]

What are the breeds of the calves you are buying?

[@nobelarry]

What exactly are you studying and where? Any marriage plans after graduation?

[@gradybock8069]

By bottle hangers

[@mikerellim333]

Check out farming & syrup he has a Chanel about cattle and amazing calving videos. He seems like he cares about his animals as much as farm & hammer

[@Lololo99200]

How many total calves this year?

[@beckysherwood4136]

Yea I have a bottle calf right now

[@FarmandHammer]

I have 15 right now. I hope to get around 50.

[@DRAGONFLAMINGHD]

There do you get less money for saying like 900lbs steere than a 700lbs? because down here in south mexico, i get less for a bigger steer and the bets profit comes from a 700lbs one, just courious; My cattle just gave me females too lol

[@FarmandHammer]

Yes around here once a calf gets past about 800lbs they bring much less per lb but can still be more profitable sometimes if you have the grass. But it’s mostly the same here!

[@DRAGONFLAMINGHD]

@@FarmandHammer Exactly the same, hahaha. i wish the price per pound goes up

[@michael7423]

I think it was just a simple mistake, a big mistake would have been if you tried milking that bull 😂

[@josethegamer2874]

Are they for sale?

[@josethegamer2874]

The baby’s the black girls and boy

[@ka6148]

You can still raise and sell heifers they taste the same..

[@FarmandHammer]

Yes but the buyers don’t pay nearly as much per lb... steers will sometimes bring up to 15-20 cents higher than heifers! But I’ll basically keep getting whichever calves I can. Thanks for watching!

[@Stella77_7]

Actually I think a good marbled heifer is a farm more Superior meat.

[@mrcantstopfishing310]

Do you live in Kansas I noticed a town name on the coral

[@FarmandHammer]

We had that shipped to us. I can’t remember the state they were built in though. We are located in Missouri.

[@mrcantstopfishing310]

Thanks

[@linseycollins7424]

I hate when they stick there whole head in the milk. Definitely a worry when they do that can be aspiration pneumonia. That's what I'd be worried about.

[@FarmandHammer]

Haven’t had any issues with it yet. Most of the time they quit doing that within a few feedings so hopefully she learns here soon. Thanks for watching!

[@maryellis3661]

The poor thing

[@cypherpunksteve4959]

Please check out greg Judy on youtube he spends way less money, and time and is raising healthy animals ie theh live their whole lives on pasture

[@FarmandHammer]

I’ve known about Greg Judy for years. He is pretty well known here in Missouri. He has a completely different operation. He is running cow calf pairs. Since I do not have the money yet to buy a bunch of beef cows, I am using bottle calves to grow. Then one day I’ll get into cow calf pairs again. These bottle calves will spend the next year on pasture as soon as they are weaned. Thanks for watching!

[@damojj24]

@@FarmandHammer can you do a vid of moving cows and calves

[@pocketchange1951]

👍👌❤🇨🇦

First comment 😛

[@FarmandHammer]

Congrats 👌

[@triaxcoalition2349]

:( why the hell are you a beef cow farmer im a dairyfarmer and i dont kill cows crul man

[@FarmandHammer]

If you are a dairy farmer, you will know that the dairy cows calf (if a bull) will go into the food system eventually. Same goes with all dairy cows. As soon as they are too old or don’t breed, they are sent off to the sale barn. From there they will normally go straight to the kill floor. All cows will eventually go into the food system unless they die unexpectedly. It’s part of farming.

[@Yogirliej4dee]

Farm & Hammer it’s great you have a cat. Too many stray cats end up in a shelter. :(
