Eric your dairy operation and house keeping is really impressive. You can see the pride you and your family have in your farm. Thanks for staying committed to dairy farming.
Nothing wrong with wearing shorts on your farm and in your videos! It’s all about comfort and functionality! Amazing to see modern day cement silos going up with somewhat of old style methods! Glad to see PA dairy industry alive and growing. Out west here in Arizona we have some pretty huge dairies and feed lots.
Your cows, barns, and milking parlor are so well kept. This only happens if everyone involved in your operation are dedicated to making “cleanliness” a top priority. Congratulations to you and your team for a job well done!
Love these updates! And yes be comfortable on your own farm. Your pride in your operation is a real testament to the work ethic instilled in you. Keep up the great work!!🤩
Great to see the Sun out, the doors opened up wide, the exhaust fans blowing and Tee Shirt Temps! And in my opinion...don't sweat the Dress code when working hard! Really never realized just how much goes on during just a single day of farming until I started watching. Of course you all have you daily milking and making food for The Ladies. But maintenance, and break-downs and then field farming keeps you moving while scheduling "to do things later" in your head and hopefully not forgetting. Pretty sure much comes second nature to you all but for this knucklehead I'm scrambling to stay caught up! LOLOL Have always enjoyed you keeping The REAL in your REEL Eric! Thank You! MOO from COW-lumbus, Ohio
I'm pretty excited to see the first silo get filled and the project move into the next phase. I'm super curious about the automation parts. I can't wait to see it get built and run. I wear shorts with work boots all the time on the farm... the debate is usually whether I'll be losing some skin over that choice but never how goofy I might look.
Clothes don’t make a man. Money doesn’t make a man. Trucks and tractors don’t make a man. What makes a man is the amount of effort that he puts into respecting ALL life forms, whether plant 🌱 animal 🐄 or person 😁. And I see you 👀 put in the effort to be a GOOD man and that comes from learning from others what you need to know to be successful man and putting your Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding to GOOD work. You are feeding the cows 🐄 the grounds and the people that you share your life with. 👍🏻 Good 👍🏻 job Eric!!
I really like that you get right in and out of your videos....no unnecessary intro or extros...!! Well done! Now, if only others will learn and follow suit! 👍
Eric, it looks like a lot of progress is be made on the Silo project. I can sense your feeling of jublitation BOUT IT ALL. I AM HHAPPY FOR YOUY. Blessings upon you.
I dont think wearing shorts in unprofessional, you are a true professional in the way you carry yourself and the respect you show for the animals and your farm. Clothes don't make the man
I came down that there main road, and let me say, they had 60 ish feet as of Saturday poured. I will also say, those there silos TOWER over just about everything else around. They dwarf the stave silos and harvestore’s that are still there.
Nice to see you go back to your roots! I love that you show new things in the channel, but sometimes we love/need a classic chores on the farm video. Back to the old school once and while is never bad. The repetition is relaxing sometimes just watching you work.
I look at your manure robots and thought wouldnt it be possible to build a small sprayer bay where ot drives true at then end of its route. As the manure osnt dryed of yet
Eric, I sure enjoy watching the new silos going up, up, UPPP! Three silos will do it? I imagine the mixing system will be fun to watch as well. Be safe.
I enjoy watching your videos, great content. I was in your area today for lunch on 4/22 going home to Northern NY from Florida. I am sure you know where I went. I also saw the men working on your 2nd silo, very nice farmland in the area.
Being that your feed pusher is yours will increase the value. A collectors item. The new silos will be visible from the Space Station.Nothing unprofessional about wearing shorts. This is a farming channel not a fashion show. Great video and thanks.
Well it is shorts weather, so go for it. I am working in NC. I travel 1 hour each way for work. It is very rural. So alot of farms and ranches. They have camels, alpacas some sort of deer. A herd of horses like Clydesdales but blond and blond cows. not sure what bred but pretty animals.
0:33 it's good to see you have a personal bond with them, I'm kinda curious to know how do you deal with the situation when it's time to say goodbye to them, I'm not a vegan ! btw. Amazing stuff you create! vlogging and farming!👍 From India 🇮🇳
Hey, it's your farm brother. If you want to implement Hawaiian shirt Friday's who's going to stop ya! The parlor is looking great, and silo #2 is going up. Looking good
Eric, i love following the videos and always give you a like when i can. On my TV i will wait till then end to do this, but your videos cut off really quickly. Can you add like a 5 second outro ? eg (perkins builder brothers)
Ok, nobody else has asked yet lol but what's up with the tiny house in the feed bunker haha. We're you bad, and that's a new type of doghouse 😂😂 ,your a great videographer, and your videos are always very informative and entertaining.
Now thats one strange looking concrete truck. The ones i see here in Finland are the mixer is other way around and it has a hose and a pump on it so yeah... Its a lot faster to unload
Great video Eric , you do not allow your milking heard to go out on pasture ? We always did and when time for milking time they would come back to the barn from the pastures , unless it was bad weather or in the bad winter , the cows would go out .
Hello, I was wondering how your expierance with the ingestable sensor for the cows? I am currently formulating a presentation for the Sustainabily Agriscience class and am doing it on the smaXtec brand ones.
I think I’ve made this comment before, and I’m not a trouble-maker, but how about you and dad buy/finance a set of NEW robotic cleaners and feed pushers? They YOU can be the ones who sell the used equipment in 2-3 years…. Just a good thought…😊
Eric, My neighbor lady has a black & white cat. She said his coloration reminded her of a cow so she named him JERSEY. I told her Jersey cows are not B&W, theyre brown. She said, well, its too late now, we'll have to keep calling him Jersey. !
Power your elobow🔥nice video👏🏼but I have a question,When you shovel the straws and pour them into those grooved parts, how are they removed from the cattle breedings buliding?
There's a slurry pit beneath the barn that gets pumped out around every 6 months and spread on their fields. He recently showed how they do it in a recent video: Lots of Manure & Cow Water Beds (Skip to 11;07)
Wow Eric those silo’s will come in handy to store a lot of feed for cattle . Our neighbor finally got their automatic door window and automatic gates and fans on new barns . How our your brush handle tit cleaner works better than the other way or takes about the same time as the other ?
