I uploaded the video of the calf in the creek and his momma bawling for him to a social media platform, TikTok. It has now had over 50K views. One of the largest news organizations in Nebraska is doing a story on it during their AG broadcast that they do every Sunday evening.
I named the calf Mr. TikTok. Seemed fitting. It is SUPER ridiculous that it has gotten this much attention. I got nearly 5K views on Instragram too.
It makes me giggle a bit. I keep asking my kids if they need any help becoming famous on their TikTok accounts.  They hate me. |

Wow, am I finding this late!! How did you get the calf up the bank of the ditch? Walked down the bank where I was standing in video, I knew he wouldn't go back up the way I did. No way. No how. I was holding onto branches of way down, trying not to tumble into the creek.
So he was walked the way he came, across the ice along the bank. He fell a couple times but was caught before hitting the water. It certainly wasn't easy. I had help from one of the farm hands. And we slowly kept pushing him up a less steep area of bank.
I haven't looked lately but I think it has gotten over 100K views now.

I have an electric fence around my pasture as well and it is bordered by a deep ditch like yours. I am always afraid that it will happen sooner or later. Glad to hear that it was much easier than I had expected, but I am sure that it was stressful to get it completed!
