Its nice.when the animals are so calm. We ran 80-90 head only but 90% were like pets. Just call and they'd come. Made working with them so easy
That’s for sure!
This was awesome. Thanks. Wouldn't have thought about the creep feeder idea.
Glad it was helpful!!
I loved this video! It answered a lot of questions that I had!!!
Glad it was helpful!
I enjoyed the barn tour, a lot of good info for anyone planning building one. Keep the videos coming and we’ll keep watching
thank you!! That's the goal!
Very nice. Congratulations
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the comprehensive tour. Well thought out monologue. Also understood every word. Thanks for making the effort to speak deliberately slower, it makes a huge difference. Thanks too for putting yourself out there. Keep up the good work.
I'm so glad!! I'm a naturally fast talker, but keep it in mind when I record now. Getting into a groove! Thanks for your feedback
Thank you for your help with Tipsy @ Doss farms. Gonna check out your channel now.
Thanks for stopping by! Glad to help
Thank you..... you got me thinking..🤔
I will gladly answer questions or show you more things in depth!
So clean and neat after watching "old school" ranching.
For sure! Lol
Thanks. Watching your first year with this barn has been great.
I'll be showing more this spring too! much more
Can't wait for preg check. That is always my favorite time. I AI all of mine, so it is a great reward to see the hard work pay off.
For sure!! I’m excited to AI next year
Nice farmer🎉🎉❤❤
Thanks for sharing Andrea, well spoken on the barn on how it is working, good work ,thanks again
thanks for watching!
Thanks for the tour
anytime!
I enjoyed the barn tour I’ve wanted one ever since you guys built it we lost some calves in the blizzards last year so it would have been nice to have something like that to get them out of the weather. Can’t wait till the next one.
thanks for watching! You'll see a lot more videos of the barn in action during calving season in 4 short months!
Great explanation of the barn.
thank you!!
Great barn tour .Enjoyed your video .
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you

Tks for sharing. New barn looks awesome. I do hope your happy with it? Hope there won't be any? Or hidden issues with it. Thanks for the walk through. I enjoyed it..Good Luck with the house build too.
Thanks for watching and supporting always!
“Spicy cows.” Never heard that term in my life.
lol!
Hello andrea 👋 from northern ireland
Yve great videos
Thanks for watching!
Awesome detailed description of your new barn! Question... Do you notice a better feed efficiency and or daily gain for beef cows in the barn versus your feeding lots with no barn cover from rain or snow?
we've noticed a huge increase in daily gain for feeder calves in the barn and cows eat less when in the barn too! especially with winter
Just came across your channel today, from Ireland
Could you do a video showing how the roll up curtains work, I want to do something similar myself and am looking for ideas
You got it! I’ll share that in the next few weeks as we lower curtains for winter and the lovely snow!
That is so much 💩 👀. Can I have some 😂?
Enjoyed the tour!
LOL you should have seen the feedlot manure we hauled today after 2 inches of rain.....
Here's a small slice of algorithm for ya.💚
😃
Hi Andrea nice barn yoiu are from Minnesota what part of Minnesota your awesome your biggest fan always tom forst
Southwest!
Good looking barn. Do you calve your cows and heifers in February/ March?
yep! heifers start mid February. Cows in March!
Any plans for manure pit, methane scrubber onto bio fuel and electricy? Working model in California with multiple dairys.
Nope, no plans for it right now
Great tour of your barn, thank you! Starting to see a few more in our area. Have never put a pencil to it, but has to be more cost effective vs pole barn/steel structure. How was it to insure vs standard pole barn? Any issues with that? Thanks again!
Gladly!! Definitely more budget-ish friendly than steel.. and the benefits of air flow + natural light. I don't think insurance was any issue for us!
What does a barn like that cost and is it a complete concrete pad or a gravel floor?
the front feed alley on both sides is concrete + where the waterers are. The rest is a bed pack with clay under
The humans are growing in the world buy recurse to buy in the super market products.
Oi ❤️🇧🇷🐃🤠🚜🐴
How hard is it to keep those feed bunks clean it seems like a big problem if you have a system would you make a video about it
It’s not bad at all! We will scoop out some rock & extra cornstalks every 3-4 weeks or so, but not much generally!
Calves seem like our rotational grazed calves. Why a barn and all the equipment to wear out vs spring calving out on grass? Looked at the Hoop Beef system, and couldn't justify the cost plus all the equipment upgrades to wear out 250k worth of equipment.
We don’t have pasture & can’t find more pasture in the land of crop country.
Also… “spring calving” in Minnesota still includes snowstorms.
@@thatfitagvocate we don't either. Just moved poor producing cropland to pasture and rotate other middle producing cropland to annual mix pastures.
How many pairs do have per pen during calving season?
24-26!

TRUMP'24.....if you want a beef industry.
What part of SW Minnesota do you live by?
