A Benefit Of Raising Bison vs. Cattle 

I was just thinking that the bison must love not having the flies pestering them. They really are majestic animals.

Bison have been around for a long time and they are so resilient they seem to Live forever!

Love the sidewalk supervisor while you're removing the ice 😂👍. Better than the flys irritated them. You truly love them.👍 Great caretaker 👍 Blessings to CTB 🙏

I think the rooster always know when you are making a video 😂😂 DeJay an Daniel have the same problem

The bison love the cold! Look at their thick coats they wear!

I love your videos! This looks amazing to me. I would love to visit and see your setup! I enjoy your positive attitude about people wanting to get into having their own herds. 🙋‍♂️

Good evening Dusty. I told DeeJay to start singing "she'll be coming around the mountain" and that rooster might take the hint. 🤣🤣🤣 55 here in N.C. and I have to say I appreciate the milder winter right now, subject to change at anytime! Hugs from N.C ..❤️

Hey Dusty! You can put heaters in the Water tubs! Go watch, Hidden Heights Homestead and see how Kevin made his water tubs! It only took a few minutes to make them n they work great! Saved alot of work for his livestock n him! Bison are so pretty! Love Dunbar! He's the man! Big Joe is bigger but Dunbar is the main man! Lol. 🙏🙏❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yes they are warriors survivors

I am australian living in oz. I have been watching your videos and i am surprised and happy that your farm is well looked after and you are informative. I am mesminised by the bison. Your care for your herds is magnificent. And your wife is your asset also. Raise your daughter to love what you are doing so she can carry that life on. ❤

Good afternoon from Syracuse NY brother and everyone else thank you for sharing your adventures and your herds

I bet the Bison Loves winter, because No Flies or Bugs!!!

Are your rooster and DJ'S rooster related? You both have the same rooster issues 🤣🤣❤🐨

Why not have heaters for your water buckets?

I usually started calling late February and if we got a snow storm I would have to take the calf to the shop to get them dried off and warmed up before taking them back to the cow that had it

The rooster wants his 5 minutes of fame lol

Bison are so beautiful

I will be out your way in February. Maybe I’ll swing by!

Good job dusty

Yep, we’re 80 degrees today! Good ole Oklahoma!

Your idea that beef ranchers would be calving in the winter months that have temps cold enough to snow or freeze is rather preposterous !!!!

Love these beautiful animals

Good morning from sunny Australia ❤🐨

Here in Oklahoma we don’t have bad water that much and my cows don’t have any problems having babies in the winter

i'd love to have a bison farm

That rooster is as bad as Daniel Arms rooster at interfering during a taping , LOL .

I love bison since watching this channel they are cool, majestic animals ....cows are cute to but.... well you know ♡♡♡♡☆☆☆☆

Rooster wants to get his two cents in. It is like they know when to crow and it is never good timing. I love seeing the bison during winter time. I know it has to be better for them with no pestering flues around.

Its time for chicken an dumplings.

First, I won’t argue that Bison are not superior to cattle. They are. However, you can get cattle that are grass genetic and low maintenance. I’ve thought about getting bison for myself but trying to rationally graze them seems to be more difficult than cows. Every channel I’ve seen has to worm their bison whereas there are cow producers who have cows they don’t worm. Also, you can get your cows to calve in April and May. It’s not a given they’ll valve in February.

Sounds like a good time to have a chicken salad sandwich

Okay, how the heck are you keeping those bison contained in bared wire fences? Everywhere I see bison on pastures, the fences are 10 feet tall!

Don't feel bad about the roster. Everytime Chad on Adler Farm trys to make a video his rooster gives off crowing. The minute he stops so does the rooster 🐓

Hi Dusty. Great video. It's time for the rooster to be cooked. Bison are magnificent creatures of God. God bless and love yall Stay warm and safe 🥰🥰

When I was a young teenager, one of our cattle had a calf in frozen conditions just like yours. I found the calf, dead & frozen on the side of a hill. Mama nowhere around. That tore me up.

0:24 if possible throw the ice chips over the fence... Otherwise, you're gonna have a big sloppy mess once it melts and the bison stomp through it. 💖🌞🌵😷

A bison hide coat is warmer than cow hide coat.

Grassy run cattle farm in WV calf in january

3:15 fun fact: moving water doesn't freeze. Consider adding bubblers to your water tanks. Do some research on the air flow for your size tanks. Maybe stock tank manufacturers might know. If you can't find it, contact koi pond installers. I know they have the information. Brady Brandwood is an award winning koi breeder with a RU-vid channel. He can probably steer you in the right direction if you can't find anything on line or if experimenting on your own doesn't work. 💖🌞🌵😷

Interesting video, I live not too far from Europe's largest bison farm, they have 400 bison. According to Danish animal welfare law, the animals must be given the opportunity to shelter from the weather - it was about to close the farm

Must have gotten that rooster from Daniel

Glad that you are getting the ice out of the water bin.

Good Morning, Dusty! Oklahoma! 🥶 Weather! The Bison 🦬 have thicker Coat! Good Morning, Big Joe! The American Bison 🦬! Hearty Souls! Rough and Tough! The True American Survivor! Great Short Video! Thank-you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Cow calves that are born in the winter are born with winter coats.

Beautiful animals!

Put one those big fish take water heater in there buddy ..if u got electricity out thzt far ...extension cord..idk just a cheap way i guess of doin it .but idk maybe thats not a good idea im not a farmer 😂 just trying to help is all

🐂🐂🐂

Cook that rooster….

Is Donbar angry with you? It looked like he gave you the cold shoulder, could it be because you took his favorite ladies from him?

😁💞😆😁💞❤️❤️❤️

You sell meat?

Not buying this 100 % have raised Cattel -40° without barns in the mountains and calf in times is a herd management issues timing when to breed so calf later this also an issue of flooding the market at same if all rancher calfed in spring and sell in the fall crappie prices because every selling at same time of year Benifits of bison is quality of meat cattel in the long run easier to work may not be as majestic as bison just same both have a place in ranching

Yellowstone stopped feeding their bison in the winter because they were too dependent on humans. They are doing just fine. I know you are a rancher and are depending on growing a healthy herd. Maybe you don't have enough land to support them over the winter months.

Rambling nonsense vidio

you need to get a flame thrower. you're tossing out most of your water in iced form. just melt the ice
