  1. I had a black angus bull get his hind leg tangled in a barbed wire fence. I got him out but he figured I was the son of a bitch what caused the problem. Man he was pissed. I climbed a ladder up the side of a shed and stayed there until he finally mosed away.

  2. Hi Kenny
    Still living the dream? Quick question. How can I send this video to my son, who wants to become a goat farmer? Tanks

    1. Fuck you, Loser. I haven't heard a fucking peep out of you since the election. DId you finally dry your tears and put on your big boy pants? Or is it panties for you?

    2. Anon@1:19 Think about this: Everytime you shove a piece of beef in your fat mouth, you're putting money in mine and my friends' pocket.

    3. Anon@1:19 doesn't think much of the people that feed him, does he?

      Which makes me wonder what he does to contribute to society. Perhaps he teaches Gender Studies at a local community college. Or perhaps he's an arsonist, like several of the 'educated' people who have started big wildfires in California have turned out to be.

    4. Elmo, he's one of my regular trolls and by far the most ignorant of them. I usually delete his comments as soon as I see them because I don't want to encourage the li'l bitch with attention, but this one I couldn't resist. Sometimes ya gotta troll the troll.

    5. Wirecutter, I'm curious which city/state the troll IP tracks back to. Not a request for doxxing! Just curious about general region for this person/bot.

      Speaking of the election results and its consequences, I have the greatest hope DOJ, BATF, DHS, FISA, StateDept, CIA, IRS, FDA, etc will be gutted and reformed. Once I'm less worried that 90% of the posters here are not Feds fishing for "Deplorables", then I might create an X account and start being less anonymous. We'll see.

    6. The notion that farming is for the uneducated is laughable.
      Piss off troll ! Go get a big mac meal deal and think about how stupid that statement is.

    7. How to say you squat to pee without saying you squat to pee.

      You're truly a shit weasel. I'm going to go ahead and assume it's a Vax injury and I'm praying that nobody allowed you to breed. If you haven't noticed, guys like us are tired of supporting you and your existence.

      Oh. By the way. I'd tell you to go get fucked but I think in your case it is highly improbable that anyone would want to help you out.

    8. Anon@1:19 I've got a bachelor's degree in Agricultural Sciences and I farm.

    9. 10:27 - have you ever seen anybody go so far out of its way as that troll to show how ignorant they/them are? I mean, this person/pet is really putting some effort into it.

    10. Can you imagine if Anon@1:19 happened to show up at your ranch when you're shoulder deep in the uterus of one of your cows as you attempt to get the chain of the calf puller around the legs of a breech birth calf? Being educated like he is, I'm sure he'd know exactly what to do and be a lot of help in saving that cow and calf.

    11. I don't know, Elmo, I doubt his degree in Modern Interpretive Dance would be much help.

    12. Elmo. Re:calf pulling
      Been there, helped with that, can still remember the smell (cow was in a bad way, cuz it hid when things went sideways) decades later. Mom & calf both made it, cuz we didn't screw up too badly. 14 yr old farmer's daughter was the brains of the op. I was just hired muscle.

  6. You haven't lived until you try to pull a plastic lawn chair off the head of a frisky four month old calf in the middle of a 250 acre field.
    All I can say is that you gotta be quick. And sneaky.

  7. The "game of whack-f*ck" with the horse and the two dogs sounded like something out of LetterKenny.

  8. Funny stuff. Looked at it twice.

  9. I'm educated, and I tried farming.

    Farming is hard.

  10. Took the H&R Block tax course. One of the other students was a midlife retirement/career change former law enforcement, starting up with a farm, small operation. He was always always complaining about the hassles, especially money.

    One time in class I had to tweak him - carefully - just a little. "Tom! Tom! Look at this here on Line 10! It says 'Farm Income'!"

    His response: "Hunh! Ain't no such-a-thing!"

  11. How about snaring a 500 lb boar and cutting his very sharp tusks off. To make it a little safer to work with him in the breeding barn.

  12. I'm retired from farming after fifty years of that struggle. I got to see a friend of mine take a backwards ride on a 750 pound sow when he tried to stop her from going out a gate she was determined to go through. Saw one of my dogs tossed like a frisbee when he grabbed an old cow by the ear and she threw her head and he spun off into a snow drift. So many good memories and so much fun along with all the hard times.

  13. How do you make a small fortune on a farm?
    Start with a large fortune.

  14. My uncle lost a finger to a corn picker, had his ribs stove in by a horse, had his pelvis crushed by a cow falling on him, and many others. Farming is not for the weak, slow or stupid. And he managed to keep the 150 year old family farm going to hand down to another generation.

  15. Spent the first day of muzzleloader season pulling a bull calf out of a sinkhole. I heard it is rather common occurrence around here.
