Catching Cows, a Deer, and a BIG Abscessed Tail! 

Surely that need an operation to clean it out

Why take the dog with u?

Shes no vet she shouldn't be touching that absess it's hard at t bottom bcos t bloods clotted..she don't know bcos she ain't a vet stupid woman annoyed me and yes it needs swilling and draining not left bcos she didn't know what she was doing

It does your correct she's an idiot with no experience...it should of been washed

Why wait for so long to care for it??? Why not cut from the bottom and allow it to drain as a vet or other farmers do and pull out the big fibr tumors that have formed?

-vet here- This actually is an abscess, precisely a hematoma. When cows have a small bleed that gets infected it can clot and cause huge masses like the one in the video. The hard portion was actually calcified fluid, as if a hematoma is left filled for so long it will actually start to turn to a type of bone. This is likely why the bottom of the mass was so hard. In that case a local vet would likely amputate the bone segments of the overgrowth or in a more cost efficient and more 'non' infection causing method they would amputate the tail.

If you watch the follow-up video. A vet came and amputated the tail. It was a tumor and multiple abscesses.

@@sarahmatichuk4127 bloody Tumor!!!....Really?? I seriously doubt that it was 100%... Obviously it was initially an abscess that was left for quite a period of time leading it to become infected!! And so the substance became somewhat like cottage cheese.... Is the best way of explaining it... And extremely Potent in smell!...

@Bev Pike Sullivan everyone keeps rambling about cutting the bottom she addressed this SHE CANT CUT THE BOTTOM its solid down there she needs to cut somewhere soft where the liquid actually is

I agree people like that they want to save money and do it themselves.they think there doctors the animal needs a vet I would be surprised the people don’t get in trouble

What grade level do you need to realize it needs amputated?

@@TheFarmGuy looks like it to me, it would be a safer bet for her health.

@@hollydunn4829 it’s what happened in the follow up video.

It looks possibly cancerous.

@@TheFarmGuy could be cancer

Yes that's what the vets do..

THANK YOU FOR BEING KIND.

Now you know that’s too obvious for a guy holding his shirt up to his noise cause he doesn’t like the smell. He looks like he could use a shower every once and a while himself.

Nice advice

Exactly. That thick Fibrin (the broken down sack) has to be pulled out and then it will flow. Abscesses turn into swollen heavy bags with the weight at the bottom. Cutting up top is like up you opening a bag of chips! 😂 I hope she’s better!

I am sorry your father was so awful about the situation you are in being gay and his reaction to it. Our son asked us, do you think I chose this lifestyle? It is hard and your father sounds like an ass. You are probably a very sensitive man and would make a wonderful veteran. I there any way you can make that happen or even be a vet’s assistant. Wishing the best of luck to you👍

I was brought to tears reading your comment. My heart hurts for you sir. Not just because I am a momma but because of how wrong it was for you to be treated that way. I have a son and 2 daughters and have always told my kids from a young age no matter what I will always be there for them and love them. If they was gay, bisexual, straight it didnt matter. I told them it didnt matter the color of someone skin, culture, religion or where they was from as long as their partner respected them and loved them. I was always open and honest with my kids and they could always come to me about anything. We had a very open communication line and I kept it real with my kids. With that said my oldest daughter is bisexual and came to her dad and I when she was young and told us everything. We was supportive of her decisions and her feelings. One day about a year ago we was talking and she thanked us for being that way with her growing up. She knew she could come to us and be completely honest and tell us anything because of how open we was with her. I cant stress enough how VERY important this is when you are raising kids. Even if you may not agree with every decision your kids make in life you should never ever turn your back on them. I do wish things could have been so different between you and your father. You sound like a very loving compassionate kind man and deserve love no matter what your preference was in life. With your amazing ability with animals you was born to be a vet. Chase your dreams. I will forever pray you find happiness in life❤.

Your Dad's loss - what a shame.

It broke my heart to hear you say your family was so cruel to you when they found out you are gay. I am so sorry. I hope you have had success at whatever you are doing today.

I was adopted at 5 by grandparents that hated me. My mother abandoned me in the backseat of a car. I know the pain you feel all too well. What your dad doesn’t appreciate or love about you…I do! So if you want a sister-you got one 😂 Thank you so helping mama cow and her baby! Proverbs 12:10 whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beasts, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel. Jesus said love everyone! Not pick & choose like our own parents did us. ❤

great story, thanks for sharing

Oh 🤗 that’s wonderful

Wow, animals surely are amazing

Aaawww that is too sweet

Aww that's so sweet.

Lets see you dealing with multiple brahma bulls and cows. I'll wait on your video.

@@WNCBlueRidgeBlondie1 I am right here waking with you!

Nget a vet ​@@songbirds3712

I’ll say that I watch a good many Scottish farmers with hundreds of cows or sheep. Brahmas too. I’ve never seen one farmer use a shock stick. Seems lazy, not bothering to find a way that doesn’t cause your freaked out cows to jump like a rabbit banging into the fence grates. And I’m sure you know that when cows bang into hard steel things , then get a bruise, this area is now more prone to abscess development. Pretty disappointed.

Well animal in farm are never happy

@@addx666 Lmao and you're a farm expert? Domestication of animals has permanently altered how farm animals have evolved and behave. These animals would suffer and even die out of the hands of humans. What are you doing to solve hunger? Cause farmers and their "farms" have been crackin at that for eons.

My family are cattle farmers and they definitely would have noticed that abcess. You have to keep eyes on your cattle hooves and body all the time. And her cutting up high was stupid. No way to drain. They definitely needed a vet call there. Im sure she was in sooo much pain and that didn't just appear over night. 😡😡

@@monicawilson7432 I thought the same thing too. Just like lump jaw, you cut low.

@@odinsson204 exactly! The PATH THE LEAST RESISTANCE is a science term that applies to everything. Plus she didn't disinfect the area before stabbing here and there and failing terribly. If you can't handle it properly go ask someone who can.

Exactly.

Except the bottom was a solid mass, nothing came out when they cut down there. (I was saying the same as you until I saw them trying to get stuff from the bottom).

@@ChibiOkamiko Look back at the video they never cut the bottom

Exactly!! I'm not even a vet an I would of cut the bottom! Gravity!

at 344 she tried to cut the bottom again and nothing but solid

That's crazy bad how huge that is.

Exactly! They didn't know what they were doing!!!! Poor cow! That one needed a vet call! And cutting up high was stupid....no path to drain bit allow more crap to get in there. That had to be sooo painful 😢

They are beef cattle, beef cattle are essentially wild. You don’t see milking cows who are touched at least twice a day acting like this. It would be too stressful to round them up and pens and look at individual bodies all over. Sometimes things don’t stick out until they are quite noticeable.

I know plenty of beef cattle farmers with hundreds of livestock and none of their animals are neglected like this.

Don’t need to round em up just go and look at them

I’ve heard things like this can happen overnight for cows, horses, etc.

@@josephharrison1625 look at the size of that and skin breakdown....didn’t happen overnight

Try working a crazy herd of beef cattle, not dairy cows that are handled twice a day. You'll want a little help too. These aren't pets, they're pasture fed beef cattle.

This guy doesn't have the trust of the animals, he isn't directing just scaring and harassing. Sad really because there's no need for his behavior. Grew up on farm and this dude and the woman are newbies and want a YT channel more than a farm imo

Yeah it's such obviously not just the abscess that's a tumor

That animal needs a vet! Clearly in pain!

I couldn't agree more. What the he'll do they think they're doing with the tail and with the rod. The tail is terrible 😫

@@shawnasabino7958 abscesses have separate pockets that need to be popped and drained. Tumors would be solid material not liquid. They should have called a vet and administered antibiotics.

Animal abuse by neglect Disgusting The fact that they post on YT means they really don’t see anything wrong with this Cattle prods, sticks Omfg get out of this industry Go plant based people stop cruelty and animal abuse

thats what i thought .. called a part time farmer

@@kaylanewton3991 yea farmers usually are out with their cattle on the daily. This should have been an immediate vet call cause it wasn’t just a fluid filled pocket it was a massive infection and swelling. Very sad.

Yes hope the poor thing didn’t die for lack of medical care .

Cows in the chute and still prodding them.

That’s ranching

It’s because it’s a cancerous tumor

You still didn't need to let it get that bad before seeking veterinary care..

@@TheFarmGuy why not get a vet since you knew it was a cancerous tumor? That video alone paid for your cow's care and you know it. That video made many thousand of dollars for you.

@@danamason2663 people don’t know that we have very good friends who are top of the line animal surgeons so we had plenty of advice. One of them said she’s probably a lost cause, others said to do exactly what we did. It really was not big at all when it was first spotted and we knew we were about a week or so away from catching all those cows and weaning the calves. In that time period it grew substantially. It was pretty much just bad timing because if we weren’t close to gathering all of those cows we would have done something a little sooner. We weren’t going to catch them all just to get her and pretty much ruin catching all of them again in a short period of time.

@@TheFarmGuy that makes sense. My in laws were beef cattle farmers too and they would have to travel a long distance to round up their cows and coax them to the upper land, closer to the house. I was very snooty in how my message to you sounded and I apologize for that. I am glad that you found a way to get farming on You tube and create a platform that makes up for the lack of income from crops or cattle. It's terrible how farmers are expected to live on next to nothing, do it for generations, and devote 24/7/365 doing it. Best of luck in all you do!

And he had his dog standing in front of them, which will scare the stock aswell

Agree 100% !

@@rileylamperd2903 no cows forget in the matter of 10 minutes

I agree, there are better ways to move cattle from area to area. No prod either

I'm not In farming, cattle raiser or whatever but obviously he's not very good in that!!!!😬

Like a Veterinarian ?

Neither of these people know what they are doing. I feel really sorry for the poor animals.

🤭😜😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

You’re spot on...

@@barbarastedillie1336 No, she is completely wrong. The incision is made to the point where the abcess head is pushing through. Doing otherwise increases the chance of repeat infection which is a much more serious issue.

You probably missed the attempt. She gave it a poke, and nothing came out.

Exactly I was literally shouting at my phone thinking why tf r u doing it at the top? U going to tip the cow upside down sweetheart? 🤣🤣

@@Lovelydropp I know!!! She doesn’t know what she is doing!!!!

electric prods are barbaric

It’s disgraceful that the channel owner liked this comment. Clearly dosent give a fuck

Electric prod? Seriously? If I saw this guy coming, I’d run too. What a creepy and moronic way to CONTROL your cattle. If you lived anywhere near our area, You would be cited.

Im pretty sure it wasn’t turned on

Me too! Makes me cry and feel so sad for them. 😥

I agree !!!

That poor cow, must be very painfull!

That is terrible. The abscess has been there for some time 😡

ANIMAL CRUELTY IS WHAT THIS IS...This should have been taken care of weeks ago. And they don't take care of the problem even in this video. Poor thing.

Deal with it

I don’t like the phrase “common sense” because not everyone has the same mind and experiences, but her cutting super high really annoyed me. I believe she said it was because it was super hard on the bottom, but still doesn’t excuse cutting that freakin high. The farmers could’ve made more progress showing the abscess and letting the comment section help with tips and ideas than just winging it on camera like that.

Those things can get bad quickly. But that definitely needed a vet

They can happened over night you know >_>

Totally agree, there's no way that happened overnight

@@julieanneb2023 You know animal physiology and farm life so well?

@@julieanneb2023 You would be surprised how fast those things can grow. Even just 4 or 5 days in pasture unsupervised might be enough for something like that to grow. He should have called a vet for something that unusual, though.

To me it looks like a hematoma that turned into an abscess. It probably got really bad and started spreading infection that caused the skin to die and fall off. Tumors don’t usually contain any fluids like this. HOWEVER this was far outside their wound care expertise. If they don’t know where to lance a abscess in the right place they shouldn’t have even tried to mess with something this angry and festered. Everyone learns somewhere but not best to wing things like this 😬

You are correct it was a tumor. Malignant. The tail was amputated by a vet.

@@katiebug5273- You cant cut the lower portion of this abscess because its become more of a solid matter. It would be causing another wound area for No real benefit. She would have been forced to cut from the bottom of the abscess to the top if that were the case in order to excise the solid matter due to its size and consistency..

@@mustardman5366 not true. That’s why they’re flushed out with a pump and solution. They should always always be drained from the furthest lowest spot of the cyst

@@katiebug5273 yes they can be flushed out, but not if what’s inside is completely solid. after a certain amount of time and severity the mass inside of a hematoma can begin to “calcify” and solidify into a form of ‘bone’ tissue. you can’t just cut through that, not safely at least. the only real choice of treatment that would be safe [and cost-effective] for farmers and their cattle is amputation. just want to clarify, i’m not mad or anything and i’m sorry if the tone of my comment feels aggressive !! i feel like it might but i can’t figure out another way to word things here.

Ive seen some 1 month old that wasn't half that size smh

Go to 3:44, explains why it can't be cut low

@@trevorbird4245 they should've made a larger cut. Lots of solid and clotted material too big for the tiny little cut they made

First your cows all look healthy with healthy coats, good body mass, no bony prominence poking out with bruises and patches of skin missing like I've seen in other videos. You're definitely to be commended for that. I'm sure it's a tough work load and even momma is getting her hand dirty assisting. Not sure what happened if this was an injury from another animal but I suggest calling in a vet before this gets any worse. It horrid.

my thoughts exactly! your see a HUGE issue and leave it be for a long time. Irresponsible.

another group trying to cash in on social media at expense of animal.

@@artk8445 You know, if you'd bother to read the responses your question would be answered and maybe you wouldn't feel the need to make such a snide remark. You might would even learn something...maybe, if you'd focus on learning rather than being nasty.

Hello 👋 Deborah

Because it’s a tumor with abscesses, amateur. The abscess wasn’t at the bottom.

@@TheFarmGuy You were still wrong to not get a vet! You drained "a tumor" God Help Her! Cheap asses. Even on a very small income I managed to have a dog's leg removed. You should be turned into Animal Welfare.

@@Go-Dawgs do you not realize that was a vet? And there’s a subsequent video where another vet came and amputated the tail because it contained a TUMOR as well as multiple abscesses? Lol Sounds like maybe you’re the one that’s wrong? lol 🤦‍♀️

@@Go-Dawgs lol 🙄🤦🏿‍♀️

@@Go-Dawgs miss delete your comment is stupid, problematic and it isnt even based on real information just opinion and rant nothing more.

Yes, I was thinking cut along very bottom, big enough to scoop out the cottage cheese nastiness, flush the hell out of it, even flush w/ antiseptic. Some lidocaine first.

T needed for the tail.

​@Darkfarfetch 😅p😅

tail got amputated because multiple abscess and a tumor.

Of course we have common sense. It’s a tumor with abscesses surrounding it. You don’t just cut in the bottom of the tumor! Sorry if it wasn’t explained in the video and not all of the work was shown. There will be a follow up video.

@@TheFarmGuy You post an abscess like that on RU-vid and don't explain how the cow got that bad, people will crucify you. Just saying.

@@5150GSD I understand that and knew it would get criticized. If I knew how it got like that and what caused it then I would have definitely explained. I’m not sure why tumors decide to grow where they do.

I do not know if cows need their tail as a mortality thing, but if it’s a tumor it should be amputated.

@@shadowunderthewillow5815 no cows don't need there tails but I know in Minnesota if you have a docked tailyou cant sell them if I remember correctly

This is horrible.those cows arent taken care of.water troughs nasty.animal abuse.

Only if you want your stock full of TB

I’m not hitting the button hardly ever...I wonder why 95% of the guys who haul everyone’s beef across the country always has one on hand?

These are pretty wild cows. Or should he just stand there and get run over. It's not like they are all halter trained and want ya to pet them. Or did you just not notice that. Snow flakes ya gotta love them.

@@TheFarmGuy it pisses me off when city folk try to tell us farmers how to do our job.

@@jasonsmitty.1057 right on, couldn’t agree more!

Getting a tiny electroshock what grazing animals many times experience by touching electirc fences or being beaten by hard sticks (whats more common) is not the same.

That's right!

I loved the wardrobe choices this morning for taking care of that incredible tail growth. B O L D choices for sure.

Not stitched up...it's infected.

Yep-pockets and tunnels and chunks of tissue. If you're going to ignore your animals and not check on them, you should stop ranching

@@downhomesunset 💯% agree .. this has to be the craziest shytt I've ever seen .. education would help this mess , and how flippin' embarrassing and to show thousands of ppl .. im wondering if the (cough , cough) farmers know what there doing .. should of just had the vet out N not cut the shytt out of the cow .. 🤤🤪

No. The cow has tumors on its tail and abscesses around the tumors. They ended having to have the cows tail amputated.

And, how many cows do you own??

Absolutely they dont know what they are doing

The compact part was identified as a tumor if I remember correctly. Simply cutting through a tumor and pulling it our will cause issues in healing.

Very true 👍

What's with the cattle prod, surely not necessary if you know what you are foing????

I could have told them that and that's coming from someone who has absolutely NO idea of how to be a farmer and raise cattle. What an f-ing moron!

Unfortunately, she didn’t remove the infection. Why they don’t get a vet in is beyond me....

Have you ever worked range cattle?

Shut up smfh
