I have a friend who's father was a Veterinarian. One night when one of her daughter's horses was deathly sick, she guided her adult daughter through the process. Younger people try harder and longer as hindsight is 20/20 and she was learning. My friend quoted her Veterinarian Dad saying "when you take on the responsibility for the life of an animal, you take on the responsibility for it's death." It was apparent that night that she was guiding her daughter to make the choice for 'her' horse. She ended up giving her horse the 'Last Act of Kindness' and it was necessary. It's the hardest decision we have to make in our life.❤️

Regardless of the type of animal, quality of life is still important. No “slack” should be applied to anyone. It was a tough decision, Tyler did what could be done for the calf, and he made the tough decision based on the information that he had. My condolences for the calf, but it was the correct choice. These are decisions that farmers/ranchers have to make for their animals. Sometimes, the results are positive, but often the results aren’t what we had hoped for and we end up losing an animal. It is disappointing, but nothing in life is ever guaranteed. Thank you, Tyler…appreciated the update.

FTR - No apology is needed as far as I'm concerned. For crying out loud - at the end of the day these are farm animals being raised for food. You treat your animals very well, with kindness and compassion. You obviously love the work you do and work very hard and give it your all! But real life --- which so many are now shielded from and have no idea even what it is --- is often cruel, unfair, and filled with tough decisions. I remember the sage but tough advice my vet gave me about a problem dog I had. If you can't help the dog DON'T surrender him to a no-kill shelter. He said there is no such thing... they just pass off their hopeless cases to a kill shelter. You did everything you possibly could to help him!

It's the hardest job on a farm. I know that many others will not understand how farmers/ranchers can love their animals but still euthanize them. You tried your best and gave him a chance and that was more than what nature would have done for him. He lived 2 months longer because you tried. And that is a good thing! If you wouldn't have tried you never would have known if he had a chance or not. Hard decision, and I know that first hand. Keep being a good rancher.

I would have to agree with your conclusion in every respect Tyler. Especially on a small family farm that has to generate income to survive. Any animal that demands an inordinate amount of time to care for and too many resources cannot be justified. The viewers knee jerk reaction to a less than desirable outcome really can't factor into the practicalities of running your farm. Sure it's sad but you are the executive in charge of your operation and the weight of those decisions doesn't rest on the viewers shoulders, it all lands on yours.

It literally comes down to quality of life. We can only do our best, in some situations throw the kitchen sink at them (treatment and/or time) and when that doesn't work make the hard decisions. You did what you had to do for the calf. Prolonging life sometimes is just cruel. Could you have kept him alive? I absolutely say yes, at least for a while until his body gave out. Would it have been the best for him? No. Not even a little. You very obviously made the right call, as bad as it sucks. I wish we could save them all but there's this thing called "reality"...

Tyler, I can tell you that you did the right thing & know how hard that was. I recently faced the same situation and it tears me apart having to do these things. I had a little calf who couldn't walk and I found her struggling to get up, wet and cold. We wrapped her in blankets and got her warm and had to tube feed her as she had no desire to nurse. Spent over a week going out 5 times a day putting her on her feet and making her walk but in the end the most she could do on her own was stand jerking back and forth before falling. She also never developed a desire to nurse so several times a day it was tube feeding. Yes, it was a difficult thing to do but the right thing & still hurts.

Sorry about the calf ☹️ From time to time we all have to make difficult decisions concerning our stock. It's a part of farming many people never see. I think you did an excellent job making this video, explaining the calfs symptoms and your thought process whilst caring for him. I my opinion you definitely made the right decision, best for the calf, what quantity of life did he have. Thank you for sharing

Some farmers on KZitem would have just said "oh, I found him dead in the pasture, must have gotten kicked or something". But you didn't, you were honest about what was going on. You let everyone in on the thought process to get to the decisions you made. I applaud that, you didn't shy away and make an "easy" video. Many farmers would have gone the easy route. You made the best decision you could with the situation and information that you had. I lived on a farm for many years, you do what you have to do for the long term health of the farm. To be honest, my grandfather would have take the calf to the processor and had him made into ground beef or jerky. Don't let the armchair "experts"get under your skin and make you second-guess yourself. You are doing a great job, I love watching your videos, keep up the excellent work and keeping it honest!!

I appreciate that you show both sides of being a farmer some people think it’s all sunshine and rainbows but at the end of the day that not the case
