Farming in Utah with The Drunken Bull Ranch
In Jan 2021 we bought 10 acres to raise our family and teach our children how to be self sufficient so they can grow and process their own food.
We’re just a small farm aspiring to be ranchers. We use both traditional farming methods but are switching to regenerative farming to raise healthier animals and grow nutrient dense foods.
Currently we’re expanding our learning of farming with our cow, pigs, turkeys, broiler meat and egg laying chickens and a few puppies.
Join us while we figure things out one mistake at a time.

The piglets are here. The harrowing farrowing is over and we’re hopeful that next time will be more productive and less difficult. What cutie pies though. #farrowing #piglet #pig

Prepping for Piglets & Springtime Surprises
Переглядів 162Місяць тому
Saturday & Sunday spring surprises. Unforcasted frozen nights and springtime sandhill cranes. Separated the older pigs and prepped a spot for our soon to be piglets to safely retreat to. And it looks like we’re going to be replanting new seeds and probably buy starts from our local suppliers. #farminglife #pregnantpigs #farmanimals

I love that potatoes have eyes, a nose and a mouth. I laughed like crazy and loved watching you take turns.
You can rent or borrow a rock picker!
She's precious!
Why would you have to remove the screen for big rocks? The dirt is still the same size
The big rocks damage the screen.
I can see she will be a big help. Stay blessed.😊
Watch europa the last battle, pass it on
*knock on wood* NO MORE SNOW - sending love
AWESOME ABSOLUTELY AWESOME BEAUTIFUL WORK DONE BY AN ANGEL.....JUST BEAUTIFUL LITTLE ANGEL...
She’s so Precious and Well Maynard,ENJOY HER AND TEACH HER WITH ALL YOUR HEART 💕
Adorable
Helpers are always great in the garden.. young learners❤
So true!
The great video what a little sweetheart 😇 She did a really good job😊
❤ We need a series... Love her! Bye friend ❤❤❤
Just use a land roller and be done with it
I would, but I don't own one.
should be mentioned this works because you have super dry & fine soil that doesn't clump
You are partly correct. Yes, I waited till the ground was dry on purpose, so I wouldn't get clumps.
*- A stone crusher guy, sees what you built as a "SHAKER SCREEN".* *- Instead of an electric "eccentric shaft" motor vibrating the bucket, you are doing it by jerking the hydraulics up and down.* *- I wonder, would extra hydraulic lines running such a motor allow you to dig the ground while the bucket vibrated and you could just drive the tractor untill the bucket was full and you had to dump it in a truck?*
That is an interesting idea. I have considered a few modifications.
@@thedrunkenbullranch *- I don't know if it would be worth the effort, but if you do have unused hydraulic lines to run an eccentric shaft Motor, then the concept might work.*
Math is not your friend.
Thinking and learning is not stupid, it’s the definition of intelligence. Great stuff!
did you just disc up the field real good prior to using your rock bucket?
Yes that is exactly what I did.
As the say 2 steps back 1 forward.
Im sorry about the tough delivery. You should name the one Wilbur. It looks like a Wilbur. -sending love
That's rough. I am sorry to hear that.. 😔 I am glad that the piglets are doing good. Who made it!
Sorry for your rough time there. Prayers going up…
Where are the pigs???
Nothing stupid about thinking as you work on a project - good on ya!
Have you talked to a quarry operator that sells various grades of dirt and rocks to get a quote on removing rocks to a depth sufficient to plant for several years without having to worry about the rocks?
I would say it was a moment of clarity not frustration. And just so you know I do things like this all the time the wife and I normally get a good laugh. Great video
Farm long enough, everything is home engineered. My Dad started a side business making stock proof gate hinges and latches. Started from a heifer that learnt to lift latches and push gates off hinges.
Why not use a York rake?
Why wouldn't you rent a landscape rake for a week and be done with it???
A simpler solution is to stop growing rocks ? LOL But seriously that bucket will get a lot of rocks gone for you
This type of land will always have rocks. The more you plant, the more top soil is lost and the rocks work there way to the surface. It’s never ending. Invest in the best rock picker equipment budget allows. You’ll be happier in the long run.
Actually, you’ll create topsoil and and it will stay in place if farmed properly. Topsoil erodes away from improper fertilization and cultivation. Once it’s done properly it is amazing how well it works and most importantly how much nutrient content the crop will have not to mention the taste.
Says the guy selling pickers lol.😂 , no, in all reality maybe try renting one temporarily for a section, do a quarter or half your field to see if it makes a big difference, if you don't have a larger peice of land, you're not planting any specific which would call for it, and you're not damaging equipment because of rocks then they are not much of a problem to be throwing money at for cost efficiency or increased production value.
Free tip; advertise in a rock hounding or gold panning site that you found a fossil/native gold in those rocks. Leave the fence open for a weekend. YW
That a good idea 🤣.
Set up a sizing chart and a drop location . Get the 4H, Boy Scouts, and other neighborhood kids involved. Smallest size is 1¢ each, next size 5¢ each, then 10¢ each, 25¢ each, $1 each, $2 each, etc. Pay them per rock. Kids make money, get out of the house, have fun doing it, and you get your rocks cleared out.
You farming rocks out there?
If you put along edge of field can be used as contour bank
You feel stupid? My friend you should feel smart that you aren't still picking rocks up by hand, think of the time saved instead of the wasted time!😊
yeah farm up not down. You let the roots do your down. Your land will thank you. no dig/no-til
Just 40,000 more hours….. and this field MIGHT be done.
Lol. Right!!!
I'm from northwest Ga & this would almost be a waste of time to do there. The only successful crop that there's ever been in north Ga, is rocks.
Yep, I am starting to think it is the same here.
You're not supposed to take out the really small rocks because then it messes up your drainage.
You have a rock farm! Sell for road base, landscape, drains, painting, pets, etc. Will you add a rock crusher or a stamp mill to pulverize?
I thought about it. It is a pretty expensive investment around here.
I'm guessing there is no shortage of rocks in that area, but I was thinking the same thing-those look like good rocks!
Should have bought the rock picker. Rocks come back after a while, yep. You could have then hired it out or did rock picking as a contract.just saying.
You might be right.
Have you seen the bed extender they make?
I haven't looked that close at it.
Just ran across this and had a thought. To help pickup go easier have you thought of using a landscape rake to "windrow" the rocks?
Yes I have. We did that in a recent video.
When youre farming pit run!😬 the motivation to find a mechanical solution is high i see😁
maybe if you had a mini crusher attached to the back of the grid, you would not need to remove the rocks, just make them more manageable 😊
That will not only improve on the speed, it will also do a much better job as the smaller rocks / stones that would normally be too small for the bucket are being caught by the mesh. In the event this comment is seen might recommend installing bolt holes in the bucket than just bolt the mesh in so that you can add or remove the mesh without needing to weld or grind it every time. It might be a time saver depending upon how often you change it up.
My God...!!! Your place is so very similar to where I live in Spain. Same... same!
Glad to know someone else has a rock garden.😄
I now live in Spain, and this or something very similar could be my answer. I have 20 acres of rocks, but I have the time to go steady. I don't need to make a living from the land.
