Hey everyone, My name is Carson Sleep and I am a 6th generation rancher on the Sleep Ranch.
Our ranch is located in the Black Hills of South Dakota where my family settled and started ranching in 1883. I started this channel to show how a working ranch operates and to document our everyday activities. My goal is to have fun and to bridge part of the ever growing gap between American Beef producers and consumers.
Join me as I learn more about raising cattle, caring for the land and working/operating equipment!

Hi Carson, being a rancher in Australia, I was highly interested in some facts. I was also an Auctioneer and livestock buyer; we run around 8000 heads from breeders to grass/pasture fat steers. We turn our cows out from 8 to 10 years depending on the season; it is nowhere as severe as yours, winter may get to 8 celius. Frost ruins our winter feed so we supplement with protein licks. At present cows like you just sold would make easily around $2,000 to $2500 AUD. Best prices I have ever seen in 70 years in the livestock business. Loved your video and content. Saw the one you did when you visited the feedlot. Would love to take about that it will be too long, we do feedlot occasionally. From Down Under

Thank you! And that sounds like quite the operation! It would be fun to hear more about ranching in Australia!

I wonder if the crazy activist Show up to rescue the cows By buying them

@robertmoore1123 2 года назад

That's a good system. Much better than in my area ...

@handyandy8269 2 года назад

I think your Dad has the right idea....Heard said...If you want less trouble...run the cows 5-6 years and then cull them out.. I have a hard time to do that now ...we have picked up more grass and I want more numbers...my wife is thinking we have to be careful with ...cows falling out good calf prices now..

@coahuiltejano Год назад

i think you lose money at auction....this is why you are seeing more farms in the US starting to include processing and online sales because the profits increase ten fold....

@farmhandluke5182 2 года назад

Good timing shipping those culls ,less to feed for sure, going in to winter looked like a nice group of solid cattle and brung decent folding cash, and them sale barn 🍔 and 🍟 looked worth the trip!💯 happy New Years 🎆🎊

@sleepranch 2 года назад

Thanks Luke, Happy New Years to you!

@MrFoamheart 2 года назад

Sale barns generally have the best food (especially homemade pies) in the countyy!

@sleepranch 2 года назад

You can’t beat the pies!

Good to see the beef farmer getting a good price for a change. I remember as a kid in the 70s my dad saying 2 year steers where only getting $30 Australian. It was the beef recession. He did well later had just bought a larger farm. He took on the neighbours Freisan bull calves And then kept them as 3 yr Olds for the US burger export market which Came good again. Nothing like $2000 + for grown steers now. He would be looking down smiling.

@sleepranch 2 года назад

Wow that’s very interesting! Thank you for sharing about your dad!

@scottraven1721 2 года назад

@sleepranch 2 года назад

Thank you Scott, Happy New a year to you!

Your bred cows are selling for less money than up here last local sale cheap cows sold for 900...4-5yo bred usually go for 1300- 1400 average and first time calvers/heifers are up to 2000

@davezeigler1804 2 года назад

Did I hear right they were February calvers for $1100 for one group and $950 for the others

@sleepranch 2 года назад

Yep Dave, that’s right!

@damonmayfield198 2 года назад

Thanks for the sale barn trip!

@jacksak 2 года назад

Thanks. That was a great video. I get a kick out of eating hamburgs at the live beef source when the hamburg might have come from several states away. I also wonder about the number of days between when a cow is slaughtered and the meat ends up in a retail supermarket. I mean is it a couple of days, a week or more???

@Bits-of-Bytes 2 года назад

They hang for 14 days in the cooler prior to cuts even being made

@sleepranch 2 года назад

Thanks Jack! Ya who knows where the meat came from, it is kinda funny! I don’t think they hang beef over 14 days but I’m not certain on that!

@mervjb809 2 года назад

@@sleepranch Beef is actually hung in a locker from 10-14 days. makes for more tender meat

@WillFaison Год назад

@JessicaJohnson-gb8nh 2 года назад

This was really fun to watch, Carson! I've not been to a live sale before and neither have either of the girls so we were excited to see it! Great job!
