videos on the ranch

Catch a glimpse of some of the happenings on the farm and ranch

Branding at our ranch is a full day. We start by bringing in the cows and calves and sort them. Then we process the cows before lunch. A quick lunch is followed by the branding. This includes lots of help from family and friends to rope, vaccinate, brand, castrate and administer pain medication to our calves. We then finish with a big dinner as a thank you to everyone who came and their families. All in all it is a good day.

Haying & Silaging

At Dykshoorn Farms we grow almost all of the feed that we feed our cows.  Occasionally during a drought we may need to buy some extra, but we try to always have extra hay on hand in case of a drought.
