      fixing water pipes in freezing temps is not fun and doesn't usually give you much heat... it might be "easier" but it sure as heck isn't as fun as something that generates more body heat :D

    When you talked about taking your bulls over to the north farm it put me in mind of my when my grandpa and two uncles would gather at the ‘main’ ranch after their morning chores were done, to have coffee and discuss their days plans. There was a north property that they referred to as the ‘north place’. Ahhhh….memories!!

  • @maryannardan4159
    @maryannardan4159 Před 7 měsíci +10

    Poor Cole 😂 After freezing his dingles off repairing that drinker you go and scare him with the train horn while he’s in the pooper!😂🤣. I need one of those. I love to scare my youngest son (38). Been doing it for years. It never gets old ( like myself). ✝️🙏🏼❤️ Y’all stay warm out there.

    If there’s going to be water problems it will be when it’s -20. Good job with the fix Cole. Take your Vitamin C and stave off any unwanted sickies. Cows all still look good. Thanks for all you do in all weather. It won’t be long, winter will be here soon.

    Thanks for another great video Cole.
    It was interesting and enjoyable.
    Nothing like having to fix a water tank in the cold weather. Makes a normal fix it job more difficult with all the cold water and everything. Hang in there. You got it in the end and it is working. Yeah!!!!!!
    Cold weather complicating everything. Oh my.
    Hang in there. Warmer weather coming. See even your head gate did not want to work.
    Busy day for you and dad anyway. You both just keep getting along.
    Thanks for everything. You both take care.

    A couple of weeks ago we had over 150 hours below zero. We have six hydrants and six water troughs at the stables, I spent several hours trying to keep hydrants working and enough water. I see you working in this video and I started to get cold again. Ya gotta feed' em. They gotta have water. When it's below zero with a north wind they need shelter. Regular watcher, I admire your work ethic.!

    I've started watching your videos with my 6 year old niece. The giggles that erupted when you, Cole, called the heifers "ladies" was heart warming. She cannot wait until the "baby cows" come.

    I started watching Brian, Cole, and Jeff's videos while recovering from my recent knee replacement surgery. I'm a new fan. We manage a family farming operation in the central Indiana corn belt. The family who farms our ground is a multi-generational family and one of the few private swine herdsmen still standing. We're in a standard corn, soy bean, and wheat rotation. We share tornado weather like you, but your winters are beyond brutal. It's obvious you three each could outwork any other three men, just like us Hoosier farmers. This is the first CZcams channel I've ever subscribed to. Stay safe

    I was a plumber my whole life and when a farmer would call yelling into the phone that his pump was out because every cow in the background was yelling the same thing . Good Times especially in January . But never worked for anyone who was more appreciative when you would run out and get their water back on. Coming off a farm myself I know cows hate being thirsty .
