Philippians 4:6 - "Worry about nothing, pray about everything. Ask God for what you need, and thank him for all he has given you."
So animals hate flags? Have you tried different flags maybe their socialist or maybe they hate freedom.
Put a French flag on there maybe they will just surrender
Oh believe me they LOOOOOVE freedom, show them a PETA flag, that should piss them off.
Funny how some of the cows need to greet the camera and have their say hello. Any one would think it was all about them llol
“ I need an adult “ Love it 😍
If you are suspicious that someone cut your water line to the one stock tank, maybe try putting out a hidden trail camera. Many of my friends have them, for some of the same reasons. Even a couple of them pointed toward the road might give you an idea as to who is slowing down in front of the house. Just a thought.
Waulda Caulkins a very good 💭
The person driving by your house was probably a young lady looking for Cole!!!😂😂😂
Robin Saba 😃
Great video as always! Makes this old farm boy feel like I am there with you. Please Cole, save your lungs! Wear a mask or kerchief when your Dad is blowing bedding into the barn!
Thank you Cole so much for taking us along working the cows. Y’all have a wonderful life. Great hard Honest Work
👍😊
Your father is lucky to have you partnering on the farm. You have amazing energy. A beautiful well run farm. Well done.
Those are some beautiful baby calves oh, you telling Brian about that hard slappy
I want you to know how much I love this channel! Your Dad makes me laugh so much!! He reminds me so much of my own Dad!! Y’all stay safe, and can’t wait to see more cute littles hit the ground!! 💗💗💗
Glad to hear!!
Thanks for another nice video. You all take good care of your animals. Thank you 😊
LOVE your videos!! You guys have such a great sense of humor - and love the father/son dynamic. SO much care between the two of you.
I also love that your getting a university education - and are not "too good" to farm. Farming in the future need people exactly like you (and your dad!!). I LOVE your Dad!!! And...you are exactly the kind of young man we hope our daughters meet and marry!
Hugs to you and your whole family!
❤your dad man! Wish I could set a few shots off once and awhile. We have some sketchy ppl around my place.
Greetings from Michigan with a whole bunch of respect for cattle farmers. Life of hard work. God bless
Hello from NL, Canada. Love, love, love your videos. You and your dad are a great team. Keep the videos coming. Stay healthy.
Almost 50,000 subscribers!! Keep up the good work and u will be at 100k before long. 👍
Cole, that is a scary thing to wake up to with people creeping around your home. Invest in a few cameras that feed to a tablet or cellphone. We had to after people were stealing all around our neighborhood. You could get a few wifi cameras to watch your cows too- so no one gets brave to steal one... This current virus has people doing stupid stuff for sure. Be careful and stay safe.
stock up on bullets
Sad times 😔
You are loved too. The interaction between dad n son is the best!!! Great health talk!!👏👏👏💕
I don’t know whether it was intentional or not, but seeing a bit more of your Dad in the videos is great! Enjoying his wisdom, experience, perspective and humor! .....and most importantly the father/son bonding!
Those calves are so cute. I cant wait for the rest of my cows to calf. ❣
You guys go the extra mile to care for your girls. Big thumbs up.
I appreciate you noticing!
Sorry about the thieving scoundrels. You need a Rottweiler! I had them for thirty five years. Even the neighbors thanked me a few times. If you get one, they can herd. A couple of my puppies got their herding certs.
This was a really good video, keep on farming
Wonderful video. God bless you all. Praying all the cows and calves do well in this frigid weather, and pray you all stay safe.
Thank you!
Your dad is the best
I just found ur videos and I love them!! Seeing the love and compassion y’all have for ur cows and calves is heartwarming esp during this difficult time in life. I love the cow humor and how u and ur dad work so well together. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Wow, that floor was easier than I anticipated. And I feel dad when he said he's not happy with the way it looks. It's a thing I can relate with. And I enjoy the more active role he has in the videos now a days. I sure do like the little things that you show. Like, "I had some chill" and the fence, and the menur......😏😉 spreader is always fun. And the dollar handle was funny. Take care both of you, and keep warm, and spring is almost here........🌎🌈🖖
You do a great job. It shows that you care about your cattle.
There's a lot of low-life people out there... even closer than you think. It's to that point even having machines parked in or near the farmyard doesn't mean that someone won't sabotage it.
Good job - great day of work
Love the great relationship you have with your dad. Wish I'd had that with my sons. Kinda tough in the city. Shouda stayed on the dairy.
Hi Cole & Brian.
Just a suggestion for your t-shirt logo.
Sonne Farms.
Always has
Always will be.
‘Farms’ being the 3rd person present rather than the plural ‘Farms’ which you initially intended! What do you think?
This Hoosier thourally enjoyed your latest video. Be safe and take care. Thanks so much for sharing a slice of life on your farm.
Good video Cole & Brian ! It's not right what some people will do to get money & we know pretty much it wasn't to buy food !! Yal keep safe cole it's crazy people out there. Always beware of your surroundings ! Daniel from central Mississippi
Love the video. Sorry you're not in school but I love the increased number and frequency.
Take a look at the video at 6:58. Do you see that small barrel and the mailbox laying on the ground to the right? Yesterday when we went over there the oversize rocks that were in the barrel were dumped out and the barrel, wood post for the mailbox and the mailbox were all missing.
Another Awesome Video.
Thank you
Hey Cole,as always,good video.I hope that you and your family stay healthy and safe.
Farm boys are tough, so don't mess with farmers. Glad nothing bad happened
I came out of my room one day for lunch and mom said "did you wash your hands?" I was so embarassed that to this day I blush if someone says "wash your hands". Good vid, Peace.
Great down to earth vid. We love Brian but we love you too!!
I appreciate that!
Always love the channel content I agree Cole protect the property at any cost keep the great videos coming
Thank you Dan
We even had to blow some off with a hair dryer to keep them dry and alive. People don’t realize how hard farmers have to work and the lengths one has to go through for cheap market prices. Keep up the good work, buddy!
A friend in southern Nebraska (a ranch/farm operation very similar to yours ) lost a mobile welding unit and expensive tools to thieves who stole from their shop during broad daylight and the shop is right behind their home. The best deterrent is a simple sign by the road "BEWARE OF DOGS"
Love the music and the video
Hay mam ,can I have your calf? Lol an upset cow? Just being a protective good mommy maybe...watch out for them. You guys work so hard, it’s amazing! Keep up the good work. Love your channel.
Damn, it's been around 80 the past two days here in Kentucky, Awesome Video As Always!!!!
You have some pretty neat machines. They sure save you time.
Thanks for the videos my guy! Hope you and your Ohana stay safe through all this craziness 🤙
Chili is just right for a cold day. Three hours later you enjoy it again.
love it when the cattle nose the camera!
My dad used to call that "spreading honey with a honey wagon"
great video i don't think we could handle that kind of cold, great job you guys
Good job man keep working hard👍👍
Thank you!!
Farmy on Brian - Farmy on Cole.
Wow, hope the calves all make it. My aunt,'s old barn has been unused for thirty years and you can still smell manure. If you like the smell, it helps.
I never considered such issues as trespassers or vandals on a farm in SD, but I guess it can happen anywhere.
Another great video. Thanks
thanks guys
gnz
Some one stole a gate from our field beside the road. So the say is so true the would steal the sugar fay your tea and come back for the water! Its sad that people stole the end of your water trough and even cut the pipe. Get a job and leave us farmers alone. Great video and you have some great calves being born.
when you have to exit the cab that's when its bad but the chilli is delish
One of our dogs came into the porch not feeling great, next he up-chucked an entire afterbirth, seems he started to swallow and didn't realize it was all attached and gorged the whole thing, the boss lady wasn't too pleased hahaha
Oh man!
They would definitely find the business end of a shotgun for sure! You all work harder than just about anybody! Keep up the good work!
Good job man but -3 that would be awesome I live in central canada where many night in calving season in Feb March can be -30 plus windshield thankful this year was an exception milder than normal but still avg -13 for highs but nice to see your vids showing the world how hard farmers work thanks keep up the good work
-3 fahrenheit, not celcius
@@SonneFarms k I should have realized that us goes by farenheit not celcius that's close to -20 my mistake that's cool for sure
@@jasonnash3164 It's one of those things easily forgotten
Hope you can graduate on time with missing school with COVID 19. We at least get alot of videos with you home.
Chilly GAS in the skidder cab ! WHEU !
I don’t know how I ended up over here but you made me laugh so I just subscribed!
Thanks so much!
Good job guys stay safe
This vid is the best thing I ever watched before
Look like you guys need some air vents in the barn
You should be capturing and recycling that gas ! LOL
Why not chop up a millet bail for the new calves you put in the pasture? They do that for outdoor cattle in -40 below Canada.
This video is from a year ago
Three days ago i ran an ad on Craigslist selling a heifer. Had some guy who was shady as hell up to the farm to “look” at her. Last night our Rottweiler’s alerted us, seen his truck creeping down our driveway, headlights off... I dont care to share the rest of the incident, just please be careful and aware folks.
That's scary!
Tattooed Lineman I’ve given up selling online for that reason. I put a wireless solar driveway alert in and it’s been fantastic. I’m going to purchase a few more for around the property since it has a 1/2 mile from alert system and you can program four different sounds so you know which sensor it is coming from! Money well spent!
I hope you put a great fear into him.. can't stand dishonest people.
linda fox may I ask what brand you choose? That’s a great idea, and yeah no more posting on Craigslist for this guy.... Thank you
So sad. I raise Australian Shepherds and often wonder if some of people coming over to (see pups) are over just to check the place out. :(
I love it when the cows find the camera lol. Great video!! How many calves do u have so far? Calving seems to be goin pretty good for u all. Stay safe!!!
We are almost to 100
Enjoy your videos. 📷🐮🐄
Most farmers I knew slept with one I half open and there ears pinned into what was going on around the farm !! Don't people know farmers rarely turn on a light to check things out !! I was always walking around in the dark looking in on the livestock at night !! Especially during calving and pigging time
Awesome video thank you
You should look into one of those mds grapple buckets for the skidder I love em!
It’s like a ginormous litter box ha. . Such a good idea to have them birth inside when you live in a cold area. I wonder if other ranchers do this.
Thanks again great video
amazing. thank you
love it ,,, man that is cold,,,
Great video 👍
Good video
Would it be good to add some bedding under those pine trees in your new cow calf plan...
Do you guys wash the floors were your cattle leave the barn
We scrape up the manure and then let them dry a bit
I think your new spreader kicks the poo out farther.
He’s a good fella your dad
“You are the chosen one” 😆
Chilli has that effect 😂😂
Nice you can still haul it in the field before it isn't fit too.
Thanks for the video wouldn't it be nice to do things in fast forward?so much easier stay safe guys good job
Can you believe people? You guys put out a video for us to enjoy. There nothing fancy about your videos. They are made from what your and your Dad do every day. It shows folks that know nothing about agriculture a chance to see what it's like.
Then you have some idiots wanting to get on your property without your knowledge. Some nuts are going to ruin it for everyone else.
I know I've given you a hard time about horses and how you need to be a cowboy since you work cattle. I won't do it much more. I think I you were getting pissed about it. I was just kidding and didnt want you to get po'd about it, so I quit.
Thank you for what you di and your daily lives bring back memories of when I was 55 years younger. Maybe 45 anyway I remember doing all that work day in and day out.
Tell your Dad thanks also.
Clean and dry is best...have you ever had a calf or cow fall in a water tank??
we had it one time our dog scared one and it tipped backwards in a water tank. It got right back out, though. Sometimes on hot days we will see them standing in them
How long can you go between cleanings like that? Also a question for your dad. Before fancy iPhones and having the weather forecast right on your phone did you have to check it often on tv or was there a good local radio station? Did you ever wake up to real bad unpredicted weather I would imagine that could be seriously detrimental to your operation.
we have a good tv and radio station to check weather with
We put our bulls up, so our calfs are born in the spring, much better.
We have field work going on in the spring so we calve at this time to be able to look after them better
@@SonneFarms oh I see, well I love your videos, keep up the good work!
Yeah, it's a shame you can't leave an installed hulking piece of heavy brass out in a field, that's $4. salvage for a Rockstar to buy a crack rock...got to make those PVC valves-couplings.
ah, the old manure spreader.
i agree with dad you cant let em short stick you
...and rustlers beware. These farmers in the Dakotas can shoot as well as us southern boys. P.S. Wish I'd had a Bobcat while growing up on our farm! Oh, well...Happy 4th 2020!
Cow noses!!! Lololo
You'll solve both problems if you convert the Bobcat to run on methane...just a suggestion
