The milking system is divided into the milking side and the pulsator side. When the system is turned on, vacuum is created everywhere by a vacuum pump that removes air from the system. When the cows are not attached to the milking system, the vacuum created will be the same on both the milking side and the pulsator side of the system. When the cows are attached to the milking system by the milking claws, milk and vacuum are present on the milking side.
Some pretty neat camera work of the milking process - strip, dip, milk - from an old-fashioned tie stall barn in Pennsylvania. Producing that wonderful beverage that makes everything from coffee in the morning to dinner at night a little better. Clunk-clunk of the pulsator.

How to slaughter your own meat rabbits on farm in a safe, easy and humane way.
This is an interesting farm video of how to process a rabbit in a fairly quick, conscientious and humane way, using stunning rather then a bullet. It's actually quite an interesting topic to watch on Youtube, as while the animal is pretty much the same, people have slightly different techniques on how they dress animals. Rabbits are pretty good sources of meat, with their carcasses producing about 3 to 4 pounds of meat from each 6 lb rabbit.
Our small family owned dairy farm in North Central Pennsylvania
It's always interesting to watch small dairy farm videos, as they're so common in the hills and hollows of both Northern Pennsylvania and much of New York. Common but kind of a dying breed as milk prices as low, labor is intense and backbreaking on farms, but milk still helps pay some of the farm expenses.
