[@weathermanplus]

Good morning Danny & Wanda! Lol you got to wait son, you tell him Danny

[@lorenstribling6096]

Dexter takes better care of his ladies and little ones than some humans do.

[@PermaPasturesFarm21]

That cracks me up because Coco does the same thing as Dexter. You could almost set your watch to it when he wants his grub!

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

It's bred into him LoL.

[@vickisavage8929]

Coco got plenty of early training, too, about effective ways to handle humans!

[@UrbanWhiteBuffaloFarm]

Hey y'all, Animals can be so interesting. Dexter the bull was watching the tractor with the ring approaching the hay bale. He very quickly ran up to the bale and put himself in-between the bale of hay and the other cows until the ring was in place. Then he started to eat the hay. It was like he wanted to protect them from the ring. Also I appreciate y'all taking the time to tell us the difference in the diet and preferences of the Dexter cows vs another breed. By watching various channels with different breeds it is so fascinating to see the many differences and similarities. Where I might have thought they were all just the same. So thank you for that. I really love y'alls channel. Y'all take care and have a blessed day my friend, by for now

[@aprilarmijo6967]

Aww baby Betty is doing so good! And she's so happy 🤗❤️🐮.. Brownie is doing great also ❤️🤗🐮

[@andrewhammill6148]

Dexter lets you know when it's only stems and seeds. LOL

[@stormbilly6767]

They have you well trained🤣🤣🤣 they look so well taken care of and happy! You guys are awesome. Stay safe up there and keep on growing!

[@The_Crow_Flies]

it is cute to see the little ones playing.

[@gretaknebel8495]

Good morning! That Betty sure is frisky in the cool morning.

[@aprilarmijo6967]

They really love that protein

[@SG-vu4qy]

if i had cows i would want them to look just like yours. they are gorgeous.

[@aprilarmijo6967]

Very good to know...

[@wendyc.5769]

Thanks for sharing your journey!

[@BrendaJBarNett]

My first milk cow was a dexter/jersey cross. Super disposition and productive milker. She also gave us several nice calves.

[@larahemilton]

How often do you have to give them a new round bale? Love your channel.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Every two weeks.

[@nancyduffer1808]

I love your cow videos ... They are so well cared for and look so good..you two have great team work together. !!

[@Jomama02]

Do you milk any of your cows? I don't think I've ever heard or seen you milk them for yourselves.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We have two that we can if we need to.

[@wolffanderson7629]

Beautiful Ranch

[@michaelhoggard591]

Seeing as I have never been a rancher or farmer, this is very interesting stuff! Nice info!

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We hope this information helps other's.

Good looking herd nice and fat love your vids always working maintaining and early takes work god bless see yall next time

[@patriciasimmon6854]

Thanks for the video Danny and Wanda. Interesting to see the workings of your farm. Dexters look like a hearty breed.

[@culturehorse]

Where'd you get all them cows .. Amazon Prime? :D

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We started with the bull and three cows.

[@beulahacreshomestead1927]

So much to learn! I know horses, but hope to have Dexters one day soon. Other than watching you, are there any books I can get about raising Dexters?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Not that I'm aware of.

[@TheresaAnnCongdon]

Love to see you guys with all the cows🤗 your awesome care shows in their behavior God bless

[@judyabernathy80]

Dexter sounds hoarse. Or, is he just spoiled? Lol So nice to see the cows! 🙏🏼❣️♥️❣️🙏🏼

saw this today wow.. the farmall club..this is the you tube channel it was old Ad for the farmall ( Golden Hill Farm)

[@taylorshomestead3934]

Awww.. brings back sweet memories of my grandparents cows they had. They were huge black and white cows, idk the breed. They’d scare me when they all came running up for food lol.

[@6996katmom]

I buy some of those black tubs from the man at the feed store. I use them to grow my veggies in because the raised beds wood has rotten. I have been removing the rotten wood and setting those tubs onto cinder blocks. That way I don't have to do so much bending down. One day I will have enough to finish my garden.

[@cathymerchant7917]

Do you milk any of your cows? If so do you give them any grain?

[@FloridaGirl-]

Such a gorgeous day too. That was very interesting.

[@lynettetucker544]

Good morning Danny and Wanda the cows and calves are in their cafeteria line waiting to be served breakfast I enjoy watching and seeing the 🐄🐮🐄🐮 and what they are up to.

[@brokenwildflowerhomestead9517]

I know equines are not suppose to have urea. I have donkeys with my cows. Are these tubs safe to put out with donkeys in pasture?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Honestly I don't know.

[@jenmailsouth4155]

There are some tubs safe for all livestock and some tubs not recommended for certain ones. The label/ingredients will tell you. Several different manufacturers. They work really good in the winter but in the heat of summer they soften some and are consumed quicker. Prices have gone up on them in my area. A 250# tub is around $130 now. Danny, it would save you a little bit of trouble to put several bales in where the cows are. Line them up with a little space between them and run an electric fence around all but one that they are supposed to be eating. When they finish that one move the fence over so they can get to the next one (no tractor needed). You can probably tilt the hay ring up on its side by hand and roll it to the next bale and drop it over that bale. It would take a little investment to set it up but then you'd have what you'd need. A small solar charger and some smart fence from Gallagher would be perfect. I think it's about $230ish now. Just a thought. I like Parmak brand chargers. Their smaller charger is $199. Could go with a battery operated charger cheaper I guess.

[@glennseripinas873]

Little black calf is feeling his oats this morning 😆🤣😂

[@MsLippy]

Love the Dexters

[@darrinfry2251]

Little brown Cafe had a present for you well for the camera that is ..lol

[@markplowboygreen1295]

Cows have always been my favorite farm animals , always enjoy calling them up to feed .

[@conniealmeida3373]

Love to see your cows, bull, and babies so happy. You are so good with them and so knowledgeable.

[@jeanneshannon5607]

How many licks does it take? Just kidding💚🧡

[@conniedavidson1807]

Cool mornings and cool cows. Love seeing Betty kicking up her heels in sheer joy.

[@fourdayhomestead2839]

My neighbor puts a few arm loads a distance away from the gate, before I open it. The cows eat that, while he goes through with the tractor.

[@cindy9032]

Your cattle are beautiful creatures....

[@veeknitqueensolo7177]

Thanks Mr Danny and Ms Wanda, that was enjoyable to watch the animals go about their daily routine 😃

Thank you

[@mariebarnes416]

I'm a city girl so this may be a dumb question. Do you have to clean up the cow pies?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

No they fertilize the fields.

[@denisebrady6858]

Danny & Wanda that was extremely interesting & informative- I do not have cows but have learnt so much about them from you both- Thank You. I love watching the babies romp around & Dexter is just amazing when protecting his girls. Cheers Denise- Australia - by the way it is 35C here today with really high Humidity.

[@joyjohns5059]

Watching with my 2 yr old granddaughter when Brownie got kicked she got a sad face an said he needs to find his mommy an get a bandaid. Lol. She liked seeing the baby's running.

[@joanncole9603]

Good morning!

[@garyjohn316]

What would you do if all you had was hay, in a crisis....

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Dexter's would still be fine.

[@slm3913]

Those calves are so adorable. I love watching them bounce around and carry themselves after mama. Love your cows. They are so gentle with beautiful personalities. You care for your cows so well. I think they love you because of that.

Good afternoon... N MS/TN line here... Do you have to trim their hooves every so often or are they naturally done for the most part? I'm trying to get everything down pat before we purchase in the spring. I'm ready, and more than excited... I'm getting my husband's mind around getting Dexter and the up keep. Love these video's & thanks for sharing. God is so good!

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

No we don't have to trim there hooves. That usually comes frome feeding to much protein to an animal.

[@LivingBreadHomestead]

@@DeepSouthHomestead Thank you for replying! I trust ya'lls opinion and transparency. I was concerned about getting someone to come out for only a few head, we're new to Dexter's. Thanks again from N MS/TN line.

Why should they be? They have it associated with good things, not problems. They are always treated with kindness and care, so they have no reason to expect anything else.

[@shodson314]

I get that but even brownie, who this would have been the first time he saw the feed being changed was calm. I’m wondering if dexter breed is a little more calm than others. I admit I have never raised cows, so I’m uneducated on such things.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

@@shodson314 The Dexter breed is more doscille.
