[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Mrs. S! yeah this was back before I was recording all the music

[@02Huntet]

Just found u ......u do very well sorting your cattle alone. we r just starting out .....I’m getting a new syringe like yours .

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you very much! Yeah I love that syringe

[@jennifershephard6638]

With time things evolve and your video making, which started out as friendly and entertaining have grown with experience and are even more relaxed yet just as great. However, personally I love the most recent intro and background music the best.

[@acesathish2567]

Hard workers

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Ace!

[@robertsimmons3556]

Nice job. Wish our handling was that smooth. Maybe someday.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

It took me awhile and a chunk of change to get here and I still have a ways to go!

[@robertsimmons3556]

@@farmertylerranch4399 embarrassed to say this...when we went to Davis Sunday and and I honked at Hank, I noticed your barn was full of hay.....looked great, this last Saturday we got ours put up for the winter...knocked the hell out of this years calf money...! Looks to me like you've got the cow handling well in hand!

[@GerraldFarms]

Nice setup. Looks like every thing went smooth. Thanks for sharing. Have a good one

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Gerrald yeah we did ok. Everything goes smooth once you’re in the rhythm of things

[@812archer4life]

Awesome video once again. Your whole operation is pretty sweet.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words and I’m glad you liked the video T. Riddle.

[@strongrivercattle2643]

Great video as usual!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you very much Strong River Cattle!

[@keithmartin7831]

Great job. Those cattle working days do have a way to wear you down. Keepum comin

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Keith. Yep it’s the most satisfying kind of tired there is! Only people who have been there will know! I’m thinking you know exactly what I’m talking about

[@DennysCountryLife]

Well done Tyler! That is one slick corral system! Excellent job on the video as well. That's a lot of work too!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you Chris! I really do appreciate the kind words. So far the corral system has been great (this only its second year) can’t wait to start building “phase 2”! This was a fun video to make and I’m glad you liked it!

[@mikenicholson2548]

Great video keep up the good work.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Mike I’m glad you liked it! Kind of humbling to condense an entire days work down to 12 minutes! Haha! Thanks for watching

[@billreal76]

VERY interesting what it takes to run cattle.

[@rogerwilson9361]

Tyler you done a good job on your video.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you Roger I’m glad you enjoyed it. I was excited to post this one!

[@LVFFarmVlogs]

Nice working facilities. I picked up a tub last year, one of these days I might get it set up!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you. Once you get that tub set up you’ll love it I bet. I’m sure happy with mine

[@deanmagnuson2993]

When you stand away from the camera it is very rad to hear you

[@Theblindfarmer]

Sure makes it easy well easier working cattle when you ha e a good set up and you got a pretty good set up makes it less stressful I’ve got one farm and there are days I am hopping it will hold them just one more time lol but idc now they not renewing the lease so I have choose. Not to update it so it will have to due for now anyways great vid

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks SmallTownFarmer! You’re reminding me of my old set up, cross my fingers and hope it holds up one more time. Then evaluate all the damage at the end of the day! Thanks for watching!

[@maxmagleby3769]

Tyler, love the content. I’m not far from you and have been rebuilding our working corral based off your design. We are looking at buying an electric branding iron. What size lettering did you go with?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks Max where are you located? I think the L on mine is 5 or 6” tall. I’ve heard people say to use a smaller iron on calves because the brand will “grow” with them but I haven’t found that to be true.

[@maxmagleby3769]

@@farmertylerranch4399 I’m just over the hill to the south in the Placer County area. I think the 6” one is what I’m leaning towards. Thanks for the reply. I work in a profession that I think we might run into each other. Do you have a channel email or another email to reach you at?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Yes my channel email is [e-mail]

[@lilongge1304]

​@@farmertylerranch4399 It does "stretch" as the cow grows...at least on my cows the brand looks like it stretched. I guess it depends on where the brand is located. Ours is on the shoulder.

[@laurelcreeklivestock6587]

Absolutely love the videos! Cattle and building thing are the things that I enjoy the most! Keep up the great videos!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you so much you know those are my favorite things too! I’m glad you’re enjoying the channel

[@ranchertrapperdieselbuilds3632]

I have a very similar setup I also use the exact same size stick/whip. I can make those lil fellers pop better than any of them and there the perfect size to swarp with

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks yeah most the time the pop sound is all it takes!

[@waynechambers4522]

should the pour on no go from the shoulders to the rump ????

[@farmertylerranch4399]

It’s not that critical we just try to get it on their backs one way or another!

[@btowannab9232]

👍good job , looks like it went pretty smooth. How many head did you end up vaccinating? Thanks for explaining the shots!! I will do the pour on but I let the veterinarian do the shots , figure their better at guessing weight and administering what the cow/ calf needs are 👍😉

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks BTO! Yes it did go pretty smooth. We ended up running 40 through the chute. Everyone got pour-on and the 8-way shot. Only had 5 or 6 to brand and 25 went to the winter pasture. Giving shots can certainly be intimidating at first but like anything, practice makes perfect!

[@rosrychaplet]

how many vaccinations do cows get in their time on the ranch with you?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

They receive Covexin 8 (a broad vaccination that covers 8 common diseases) twice a year, every year and Breeding females get another one called Vib-Shield 5 (covers 5 reproductive diseases) once a year, every year. Thanks Rosrychaplet!

[@rosrychaplet]

@@farmertylerranch4399 thank you. I wonder if the scouts know to watch you to help earn their badges. #cityslicker

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Haha! I don’t think so!

[@starwombat]

Hi Tyler, Please tolerate my ignorance as I am a newbie. Why do you brand the cattle? Is the information from the ear tag not sufficient to identify the cow to your property and is that not on some sort of national register? Thank you in anticipation.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Comments are for questions so don’t feel bad! The eartags are just for my records and management so I know who is who there is no registry or anything like that. The reason why tags are not used that way is because they can fall out or get ripped off. Plus in the event your cows would get stolen the tags are very easy to remove and change. Therefore not a completely reliable way to identify animals. Branding is the best way to give them permanent identification that can be seen from a distance (most cows won’t allow a stranger to get very close!)

[@starwombat]

@@farmertylerranch4399 Thank you Tyler. So are the brands registered to your property?

[@UserName-ec4qu]

Can cattle build immune system to fight off disease through minerals feeding and diverse cover crop feed? Do organic farmers use drench and vaccines?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

I have never heard of anyone substituting injectable vaccines with minerals or particular feed. There are wormers that can be fed but that’s all that I’m aware of. I’m sorry but I probably can’t answer your questions about what organic ranchers do as I simply don’t know. The drench is definitely not allowed for organic, not sure about vaccines though.

[@jackkilbane9209]

Why not freeze brand ?

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Hmmm well honestly I never considered it plus I don’t know how to do it! Typically in the cow world hot brands are used to mark ownership and freeze brands are used for individual cattle identification. I’ve actually never seen a freeze brand used on cattle for ownership purposes. I have seen it on horses but never cattle. I think hot brands are just easier, plug them in and they’re ready to go. Thanks for the question sorry I don’t have a better answer for you!

[@jackkilbane9209]

The freeze brand is simply, it's brass or copper numbers dipped in liquid nitrogen , handy because you can put the cows ear tag on her rump , handy setup, #irishspringcalvingnosleep

[@buckinthetree1233]

It would take two days to freeze brand 20 cows, and in the end only half of them would take. You have to clip the hair, clean it with alchohol, and hope your iron is cold enough. It's a pain, but granted it's the easiest to read on red or black hair cattle.

[@DW-cj3no]

Good job but wtf you need a key card for on the ranch

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thanks DW. Key card? I don’t understand!

[@lilongge1304]

​@@farmertylerranch4399 Looks like you were wearing an access/ID clip on card near your belt loop area. I was afraid you were going to lose it😂.

[@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754]

Good looking setup! You handle them cattle very well!

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Thank you Jon!

[@deanmagnuson2993]

I like your curved pen to line up the cows to the catch pen

[@buckinthetree1233]

I'm guessing you edited out the branding. If so it looked like you were branding after putting the ivomec on. Always do the pour on after you brand.

[@farmertylerranch4399]

Yeah the editing must have made it look that way. Ivermectin is always the LAST thing before they exit the chute! Reckon we both know why! Thanks Buckinthetree

[@sophieandwayne]

Oh laugh likes no tomorrow

[@staceyschwall5916]

Great job, Ty! Mom would like to see Ranch hand Remi in more of these 😊
