Treating Cattle with Pneu-darts After Bull Broke In

[@Ptcountyfarmer]

Very interesting, I’ve never heard of this before. Thank you for sharing Ryan!

[@seriouslyconfused1]

Story time! On the topic of bull power. I bought a bull from auction with a warning of do not share a fence with other cows as he will jump fences. When my cows came into heat he definitely did his job very well, to well actually. Come 9 months latter every one of my 24 cows calved within 2 weeks, along with 80ish (might have been 90) of my Nabors heifers he did not plan on breeding for another 2 months that he had almost 2 miles away. We know it was my bull because he was found dead in the heifers pen. Vet said his hart exploded dew to over working. One of his calves are now my primary bull and he never misses a cow in the 5 years he been working for me and thankfully he doesn't even challenge fences.

😂😂 WOW

[@Greg_Gatsby]

I think former VP Nelson Rockefeller died the same way! 😂

[@brittblanton8342]

Great video Ryan, I had a dart gun that I used treat my cattle for pinkeye before I retired from farming it was so handy to use in the pasture. Take care and have a great week 👍

[@Azdude801]

3:38 I bet Ryan is giving us a hint. I'm calling it.

[@charleslynch7274]

Good luck Ryan hope it all works out for u

[@toddatglencovewoodworks]

It’s entertainment. It’s educational. It’s How Farms Work! Excellent video Ryan 😊

[@daleley7645]

That gate is a big time saver! Too bad with neighbor's bulls keep getting in.

[@billwieland8497]

Thanks Ryan.

[@timothyfry8470]

Thanks for your great videos, I miss working on my uncle’s farm in the Lancaster/Fennimore area. He had dairy and beef cattle, every time I went to feed the beef cows there was always one that liked to be curry combed or petted

[@nashcobb3056]

thank you

[@kevinwittstruck8764]

Sonne farms has one of those gates and they love it very much

[@waterskiingfool]

As many cows as you, Travis and Dad have I'm surprised you haven't bought your own shoot

[@Daveco82]

time for a vertical beater manure spreader?

[@Angrygnome79]

If the 4wheeler pushes the gate open so easily, what stops a cow from leaning on it and pushing it open ?

[@HowFarmsWork]

The cows are scared of it after they got familiar with it. It’ll actually pick the front end of the four wheeler up and almost flip you back if you aren’t careful how you cross it.

[@Michael-fd8ob]

Them bulls will be having fun. And keeping busy. Lol lol

[@patkelly7999]

Great stuff Ryan and Larry😁 theres always something👌👍🙏😎

[@derekjensen5918]

As always Ryan great videos and very informative. I can’t wait till the next one and sorry that others bulls are getting into your heard

[@COALTRAINKEV]

what kind of cows do u have?

[@MeredithFarms]

How many acres of pasture do you run your cattle on?

[@HowFarmsWork]

I run 62 cow-calf pairs on ~120 acres.

[@ThomasG77]

amazing you stay so calm. I would not be so neighbourly

[@fazerainbow5674]

and i in deed did see that gate you drove over cole sonne has one

[@cthomas1864]

Are you going to the farm progress show?

[@jazzerbyte]

That's an interesting and handy looking gate!

[@kenraterink]

Is your neighbor paying for the lutalyse and darts? As someone else said already also, we always had to do 5cc dose also

[@HowFarmsWork]

I was instructed by the vet to do 2CC’s with the specific medication I used.

[@benjaminclingaman7551]

Hey Ryan That gate you put in was awesome You don't have to remember that I shut the gate or is it closed.

[@robbytorregrossa1037]

How do you know which cows have been darted

[@darkrevenger04]

Ear tag number most likely

[@texgibson6236]

Well you should send the other guy the bill.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Ssve up all you can and get an Arrowquip chute! Slickest manual chute you can get.

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

My Dad has problems with a neighbor's bull. He caught the thing and used a Burdizzo on it. It never was a problem again, and the owner couldn't figure out why he wasn't getting any calves the following year. Right on the edge of a lawsuit, because we had Registered Dairy herd, and the neighbor just ran scrub beef cattle. I think you could do the same, because your neighbor isn't running anything but a scrub hobby breed. I'm not sure about the legal stuff, but if you rack a bull or 2, they might want to maintain fence better. Just saying.

[@mitchellkoehn]

We have a 22 that was converted to dart gun, but uses 22 blanks

[@JoyceCorbett]

i hope you sent the bill for this to your neighbour as it was his bulls that cased all the prob

[@FoodwaysDistribution]

Sonne farm has that swinging gate ....

[@scericat]

You doing the Farm Progress Show this year?

Good content. 👍

[@SimonKL11]

Nice cattle update👍👍 that highland bull really sucks, time to put it in the freezer😉

[@homesteadingkosher1005]

it was the miniscus for sure haha

[@williamorman4779]

How do you like your 7930?

[@fazerainbow5674]

awsome video ryan thumbs up and shared

[@mrt4547]

The Lute dosage for what you are trying to do is 5 cc. Using darts on 60+ head is crazy.

[@HowFarmsWork]

It wasn’t Lutalyse, it was another brand

[@davidtischendorf6115]

Estrumate?? Dont over worry about getting it on your skin. Been using that product for 20+ years.

[@dknust9]

It can also trigger asthma attacks in people with asthma

[@raymondaston4796]

since bull does not want stay home looks like time for roast steaks hamburger

[@dennistembreull2718]

It's illegal to shoot and kill somebody cattle. Unless if it life or death

[@kdb991]

We use 5cc on cows and 3cc on horses

[@RoadTest-cl3jz]

It would be real hard to not make that highlander compost

[@craigh3773]

I think the owner of the highland bulls needs a dart or 6

[@chargermopar]

Hope the cost of this gets covered. Interesting way to abort wayward calving.

[@jaredsutter7198]

Who’s says call of duty is a waste of time…. Not sure you’d be able to hit those shot with out all the virtual practice!!

[@aaronisaak8071]

Glad the neighbor agreed to get rid of that bull what a nightmare having to deal with that highlander junk

[@jedimasterjoe5386]

You salty

[@ThomasDrehfal]

OMG! I would rather clean out the heifer barn with a tablespoon then to have to deal with that.

[@kdh1309]

Did your neighbor buy his bull back at auction or did he have more than one ? That sucks !

[@HowFarmsWork]

The one I sold was a younger one just reaching breeding age. 2 days later the same one from last year broke in

[@kdh1309]

@@HowFarmsWork Time to put that one in the freezer !

Fantastic 😊😊😊😊😊

[@jamiefrench9023]

Sinetimes its the little purchases that make life just a little easier. Maybe if you put up no trespassing signs the bulls will stay out.. lol ugh best of luck, and bill the neighbor

Hey Ryan, I am so sorry your neighbor don't care about his neighbors. I pray those bulls go away. Take Care, Take it easy and pray and Trust JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CLEARVIEW666]

credits 🤣

[@josephmelson7591]

Very good video hopefully you coud dart the other bull and so the same...I have seen them highlanders bring thousands at the special exotic animal sales tho to had you weren't closer to one of them who knows what a trophy bull with horn's like that would go for Many times the head sells for far more after the slaughter then the animal brings as far as highlanders and longhorn's at auction

[@doclull1989]

Hey Ryan!! My dad used to butcher those Highland cattle, he hated them. Hope you dealt with the 2nd appropriately ☠️

[@brentkelsay3439]

The dart gun's effective, the new gate's impressive but you might wanna curb your enthusiasm about that executive producer

[@rossnolan2883]

Wow 🤩

[@jeffreyhouston2043]

Let's just say that this channel will definitely show you a different way to do things, lol. 🙄

[@WillFrancis-w4u]

Omg your going to have late calfs

[@WillFrancis-w4u]

I turned my bills out the second week of June

[@HowFarmsWork]

The calves are going to be right on time

[@peterjames2004]

when you said the last 2 sold for 270 was cents per pound or $270 per animal

[@HowFarmsWork]

$2.70/lb

[@charlesbennett6242]

I hope the neighbor didn't expect the money from the sale of the bull, after all it was UR fences that got damaged and u will have to repair, UR cows that got screwed with, UR time, effort and cost to take him down and haul his ass to the sales barn. Herd it said hilander bulls are horney in more ways than one. 🐂 lol 😆

[@calebcaudle460]

No way would I trust something that important to a dart gun. Have the vet come do it in a chute and bill the neighbor for the entire cost. Then you can discuss with him. How much money you lost out on from Not having the correct calvrs this year.

[@HowFarmsWork]

Part of the reason I didn’t use a chute was because I was sure I wouldn’t be able to get them all back in to the buildings, which I didn’t. Still could have rented a chute and ran them through but for me the darts were way more convenient for the time I had available.

[@charlesbennett6242]

Time for hilander steaks and hamburgers 🍔 😋 no more problem 😡

[@jedimasterjoe5386]

We need More renegade bulls. Let’s go!!

[@nikphoenix]

I would not have wasted the darts. I would be having fresh steaks for dinner.

[@brianbirir9695]

Hi Ryan , why don't you just leave the bred cows to calf down, its a waste to abort already bred cows😢

[@chucklesx]

He bought expensive pedigree bulls to keep his herd as purebred angus. He doesn't want scrub crossbred calves from a bull of unknown breedin

[@josephmelson7591]

$ the Cross bread calf's won't gain weight as fast and won't bring as much money when he sells them it's difference in several thousnds of dollars each animal it coud be a 500-1200 dollar loss depends on weight color and how much of that shaggy fur comes threw on the calf's to turn off the buyers in the beef game black hided animal's always bring more money..
