You crack me up. The prissy girls wouldn’t even walk in a barn Tay climbing up on manure spreader puts her hands on it When you put the glove in your mouth to pull them off. That’s when I knew you were a real farm girl. Thanks Tay
That snow makes everything feel like Christmas. Just amazing. Love you and Brent. A wonderful team you guys make. Ive been watching your videos. So cool. Learning alot. Thanks 😊❤
When I was farming I tried to avoid buying livestock; there are no days off when you have livestock! You are amazing! You are too smart to be working for someone. Maybe you can invest in Brent and insinuate yourself into dairy ownership. If your credit it good you can borrow and write of the interest and expense your loan against your earnings. You can avoid a lot of taxes that way
You guys are awesome . I worked as a commissioning engineer and have 100% respect for you and Brent. Send my love for you both and your families. Best wishes Ally.
Just so you know, that is not a bee nest. That is either a hornet or a wasp but not a honey bee nest. Stay clear of it or you will get stung without warning! Suggest having a local honey bee keeper remove it before spring time for your and the cattles safety.
Brr. Too cold up there for me. A old and simple way to keep your feet warm for hours: take a pair of nylon socks, sprinkle baby powder in them or on your feet and slip them on, then take a plastic bag over that then put on your normal winter socks. Feet will stay dry and warm for hours. Use to do this in the forces and continue to do every time I have to play in the cold stuff. 😊
thats old school barn and milking system. reminds me wen i worked on a dairyfarm years and years ago wen i was 16years. now 40 and never saw a barn and milking system again, so nice to see this :)
As a dutch farmer i am suprised that there is belted cattle in the usa overhere they where the cows for the rich and noblemen the few that are still arround are being used as sucklercows. If you are looking for a real dual purpose breed you have to check out the german fleckvieh breed they are real good producers and give you a heavy cow in the end.the fleckvieh is the ancestor of the simmenthalcows.. simmenthal being the meat brance and fleckvieh dualpurpose
Beautiful bull!!! So happy for you👍. I'm going to have to come up there next summer and make you a standing platform for that bale cart and weld it on🤔🤔🤔👍😁. Everyone in Northeast Arkansas says for Taylor to keep all that snow up there 😐😐😐😕🤭🐄🐄🐄🙋♂️⚘⚘⚘
Hi, Taylor I love your videos and remind me of my childhood. Wonder you you never park your tractors in your 4-bay garage/shed? It would keep them out of the elements.
You're gonna luv the Dutch Belts !!! I had 12 or so Dutch Belt Holstein cross...and few Ayrshire Dutch Belt cross...even raised a Ayrshire coss bull...he was herd bull for 3yrs...Raymond 😊 Threw some beautiful Red n White belted

Aw winter work, snow adds another whole dimension! It sure is pretty. I grew up in western Montana and remember well cold hands and feet helping Dad feed the cows. I loved that work, just like you Taylor.
That snow really does make everything look so pretty. Congratulations on Neil he should be a great bull for you. Does that give you half ownership of his calves? Dutch Belts are great animals and should serve you well. It's always fun to do chores with you. Take care
Good Morning Taylor; I’m glad you are warm and safe in the barn with the Moo Moo’s i feel it’s such a nice place to be on a cold winter day to be able to get the aroma if the hay and the sound of the ladies munching on their hay ❤😊
Tay! Those shoes in snow. Of course your (small) feet were cold. Mine got cold watching you walking through the snow. You're such a tuffie, and about taking OFF your gloves.......... 🤑A buddy in NC. 😇🥰
Good evening Taylor Great videos very informative and educational, Still would like to send you a card do you have a PO Box ? Enjoy all the experience videos 😊
Another great show Tay, the snow is pretty and I think it’s good for the soil but you can keep it. The older I get the less I like it. Be safe and warm. 👍👏🐄
It's nice your keeping the snow out your way. Lmao. Its been kinda rainy damp here in Michigan. Cold but to cold. Your new Bull looks awesome. Hope he works out good for you.
Congratulations on buying your little bull! Is there a backstory to his name, Neil. Very impressed at Brent and your ingenuity is resolving the flight/sprocket issue on the poop train. Must feel very good to resolve these maintenance challenges.
Thanks for sharing the chores with us Taylor. So happy for you and your new bull Neil. Looking forward to seeing how he grows and his offspring. Get warm, stay safe and see ya next time. D
Hi Taylor, is the old farmer from Iowa. 50 degrees here today and green grass. No matter how busy we are I make sure to see both videos each wk. We are getting our Katahdin lambs now busy time. Keep up the hard work not many young people have your ambition!!!!
Glad you are still doing well. I’m here in Maine also in Franklin county and watch your videos regularly. Glad to watch what is going on nearby. You do a great job. 👏
Good morning from Wisconsin. Our weather patterns have switched again, we have 50 degree weather and you have snow. By purchasing that bull you are showing a great interest and investment in the future of that farm. I do hope that someday you get to take over that farm or some sort of partnership with Brent. You certainly do have the skills and knowledge to do that. Taylor you sure make your videos fun to watch and I do have to giggle once in a while at some of your little quirks. Stay warm, keep smiling and keep farming. 🐄🚜😉❤️
Absolutely another great video. Snow….ugh. I say it’s pretty to see on tv but I do not want any. Mother Nature probably has her own thoughts which go against my wishes. Ms Tay, I wish you would wear some kind of headwear whether it’s a stocking hat or something else. I’m sure you know that you lose a lot of body heat through your head. Please stay warm, take good care of the girls in the cold weather. Also the new little man too. Take care and thanks for the video.
Another video of excellence. Taylor, that calf you bought is absolutely gorgeous. Love how you always say hello to the cows. It shows you care about them. I always treated our cows with compassion. Never smoked them like I see others do.. You treat them all like they are yours and not Brents. Those calves in the other barn are getting big. Almost time to bring them back and introduce them to the herd. Work never stops on a farm. There is always something to do. It is 36 degrees here in Pa. I am cold. Just a light dusting of snow though. Get your coffee and warm up. Have a great day and God Bless.
Taylor really enjoying your videos. The passion and love that you have for the Cattle are amazing. Keep up the great videos I look forward to see everyone. ❤
Nice looking little bull. Taylor and Brent have you ever tried leaving the truck bed up so snow does not accumulate and need to be removed? Heifers keep growing so the barn will need cleaning more often. Hope that isn't to difficult should you have a lot of snow. God bless you.
Good morning Tay. Winter in Maine on the farm. Cold always rules the activities on the farm!! Thanks for taking us along for all the work. Outdoor jobs in the winter are always a special kind of job!! Great stuff!!
🇺🇸 🎉 Congratulations on the first addition to your herd! Won't be long now and you'll be rich & famous and won't even talk to common folks like us 😅. Seriously, the hardest part is getting started! Well you've been around the business and know that's not 100% accurate but you have your start now off to the races 👍! 🚜🐄🌾☃️
i grew up on a 40 head holstien dairy farm in michigan in the 70s and 80s. Dad quit milking cows in 87. he got into beef cattle in the mid 90s. i noticed it was daylight during your morning milking. What time do you milk? 8am and pm? Ive never seen a machine that unrolls a round bale inside the barn. Pretty insteresting.
Belted Dutch.............Is it a purebred? Those are a rare breed, when if first come on camera I thought it was a Belted Galloway. It is sad that the push for the industry to go big destroyed alot of farms that were proud of raising breeds that were not Holstein. My personal favorite was Ayrshire, always wanted to have a herd of those to milk................
Hi, yup he’s a pure bred Dutch belt, the farm he originally came from has a handful of them along with some Holsteins and Jerseys. I know what you mean the industry pushed for mass milk production and that meant cows that could milk a lot, bringing the rise of the Holstein. We have several Ayrshire cows and they have been wonderful!
@@tayfarms The thing I liked about the Ayrshires that were here was they milked well, had great temperment, and didn't have the health problems the black and whites seemed to. There were two that were a mother/daughter pair and the word to describe them was classy........never dirty and had the look and walk of a good cow and call me nuts, but I think they knew it. I couldn't imagine a barn yard full of them, but before my time there were acouple decent size herds of them around where I live. Too bad things went the way they did. Maybe some of these breeds will make a come back, I don't milk(Other than one for our own use) anymore, but got into Irish Dexters for beef before it was popular, they were hard to find at the time, now it seems everyone has them. Hopefully that continues with other breeds. Curious, have you tried or looked into learning AI since I assume you found your life's calling?
Great video as always. Was wondering how the heck Brent drove that truck across the way with the windshield covered in snow .. then I saw he had the driver's door open LOL
Hi Taylor thanks for sharing another awesome video. Must say Neil looks like a lovely bull,hope he does you proud in the future. The snow ❄️ looks lovely on a Christmas card but not much fun to work in. Love the new white bonnet on the Kabota, when did you paint that? be careful in the snow ❄️ and try and keep warm, thanks again take care and stay safe 👍 😊.
Printaboul = Gaëtan For a moment I thought «belted galoway» I had to make my research.I didn't catch if it comes from the Lakenvelder, or Lakenvelder is another name for the breed, I didn't know that breed, It's going to be interesting. Good show.
Hey Taylor I came across your channel last week and I've been watching a lot of them since. Love your positive vibe and passion for the farm and your animals! I'm a DieHard watcher of farm RU-vid channels and you have quickly become one of my favorites. Would love to support you more with the Thanks or Super thanks icon but it doesn't appear on your icon options ... like many other channels. I'm sure many other people would also love support you in that way.I'm not sure how that works but it might be something to look into. Happy holidays
Hi, and welcome to the channel!!! I’m so glad you enjoy watching 😊. I’m not very tech savvy but I’ll definitely check into that. Have a terrific weekend!!😀
Answering your question Roy on the bull. Will produce for years the only thing is in our business which is beef more so than dairy but it holds both ways, we like to only keep a bull around long enough that he is not breeding his own daughters . There are some people that will keep one or two bulls around and only breed the mama milkers that they have and don't keep the daughters for one reason or another, by doing that they can keep the same bowl on the farm. As far as age is concerned as long as their feet and legs hold up that they are physically able to breed a cow they can produce for many years. Generally the determining factor in a bull is that they grow physically just two large to be effective as breeders
@@tayfarms why thank you Taylor I really enjoy your channel . There were dairy cows on this farm for 80 yrs. We began the transition over to beef in the late 90 s. I am 62 years old and have owned cattle of my own in one form or another since I was about 14 years old. We run about the 70 head of beef here on our place in Western Pennsylvania.
