sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Curtis Landon Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Neat idea, a compilation of farm stories. Even chickens can be source of humor--one of my funniest memories of childhood is about chickens. I'd be working in the barn, and laughing at the chickens that would follow me in there, then they'd get distracted by sunlight coming through empty nail holes in the metal wall--they'd stand there forever pecking at those "lights" on the wall! Much later in life, I had acquired a miniature horse stallion and a couple of mares. He had such great conformation (old Quarter Horse-style) and straight legs, I decided to start him under harness by having him pull my firewood up from the canyon--smaller loads of course. Mr. Rice is right--if you have a good relationship with them, horses work hard because they enjoy it, mine certainly appeared to love a challenge. One of the mares never produced very nice foals, so I broke her to saddle so that she'd be useful in some way, and she seemed to love carrying the small kids around. She even did well in parades. Anyway, I loved the logging demonstration, thank you!
Thank you Dickie B I hope that you continue to follow Rural Heritage and me as I share what I have been taught. I am very hopeful that it is helpful for you and others.
Enjoyed this so Much! 1945 after WWLL, my dad had to get back into farming. So, he bought a farm, but discovered there were no tractors to buy because no new were being made and not even iron for repair parts, so Dad bought two teams of Percherons. We farmed with them for two years before we could buy a tractor. I was 7 years old. Oh how I loved those horses. When winter and cold outside, horses in their stalls, I would climb on a big broad back and maybe take a nap. You are such a nice man!, I enjoyed watching you work the three, like telecommunication --- yes they are working for you perfectly, because you respect them so much, Thank you!
Ruth Ferguson Thank you Ruth for your kind words. I appreciate you sharing your memories with me. Keep an eye out for more videos. Rural Heritage finished filming here again this very afternoon. I'll introduce you to a young filly that I have been training. She is a sweetheart.
You have great way with you Ralph ........ calm and understanding . A lot of people could learn a lot from you and I am sure they do . . . Your ethics are spot on . . . Would love to visit one day . All the best from England .
I watch so many of these and Ralph you and your team are like a smooth gravy.... you can go over lumpy mashed potatoes like butter..... amazing, Love you all..... wish I lived another life in my heart... I truly want to cultivate memories. am I too old, in the last 2 years I learned to ferment, can, bake, make a sourdough starter and grind and bake the bread and pickle a dang good corned beef on the porch for almost 2 weeks.... no fridge and it's time again it's march and will ferment some sauerkraut for the corned beef! you make me happy
I'm definitely buying his book. What a wholesome man. Honestly I've never been won over so quickly by hearing someone just talk outloud before. You touched my heart. Thank you.
Love watching a guy like him hes like a dad whith his kid you can see the horses love and realy trust and like him a stranger can see the bond just see how melow they are their relaxed getting ready
Very informative video. So nice to see a man who loves and cares about the horses in his life. Draft horses have always facilitated me . This team absolutely will do anything for the love that they have for their keeper . I will pass this on . No need for desert oil here . Great thanks to all who put together this video!
Aunt Carrie blew a Conch Shell when it was time for Uncle Henry to stop plowing and come to the house to eat dinner (noon meal in the south). The mules knew the blowing of the Conch Shell meant that they too would get feed, water, and time to rest. My 86 year old cousin Rodney, son of Henry said you'd better hold on to your team because they were coming to the house. My cousin told me this story this weekend at family reunion. I remember when Aunt Carrie and Uncle Henry had no running water or plumbing. Aunt Carrie cooked on a wood stove. They had an outhouse. The boys slept outside in beds or on the front porch. Great people. Rodney's brother is in his ninety and still ranches everyday. Aunt Carry played the piano and the family sang beautiful harmony. I remember eating Aunt Carrie's divinity candy and homemade grape juice.
A real American Pioneer!! TY Ralph☆☆☆I love the tack room! How many horsemen could properly match 3 horses? Ralph has managed to do so.Chainsaw work on that 400 year-old oak is a plenty, but only goes back to the Dutch arrival, not Columbus---- 1492. Log skidder---LOL♡♡♡
My father and I worked in the woods with a horse. His harness was heavy leather. He had a 2000 pound Clydesdale. He was a beautiful kind horse but kind of skittish. Never wanted to walk. He always wanted to run. Dad made his own bunk to haul 8 foot wood.
Hey Ralph do the horses come from the factory with reverse as standard or is it an optional extra ? Cheers from new zealand ps cool vid ... love how they work for u .
3 horse makes sense to me not over kill thats funny if one gets left in the barn they get upset i love how ihis horses are his famaly and he is the dad .great job what u have done with 3 anamals .their not dummies
Gotta love 'em up. Too bad the ole lady don't understand. Perch/Belguims are great. I wished I learned more when I had the chance. Bells are good for predators as well.
I would like to see how you meet their nutritional requirements given the facts they are working horses. Im not questioning that you take good care of them. Just wondering how you meet those needs. Do you give them vitamins???? Etc.... Thanks for sharing.
This man trusts his horses so much that he got between the back legs of one of them and the front legs of the other while putting their gear on. And yet a bit and snaffle are needed for horses that will do anything for their owner. And you are saying that a bit is o.k. It is absolutely NOT COMFORTABLE for these horses to have a bit in their mouths. How would you like to be pulled around by a huge piece of metal pushing down on your tongue, all day long. Learning from the Amish, how to care for horses, is a big mistake. The Amish are known for their neglect and cruelty to animals. Finally, if you take all the huge tree away, the soil will have nothing to regenerate with, and animals will have fewer places in which to make a home. You certainly are misinforming your viewers! What is it about farmers. They are constantly neglecting and abusing their animals , and then try and justify it to the city dwelling people, who the farmers think are too stupid to know the difference.
Shit the fuck up you dont know shit about horses and never been around one in your life. He's practicing good animal husbandry and his horses love and trust him as much he does them. Go spew your hate elsewhere.
Too noisy ! Very hard to watch ! VERY LOUD !!! And horses years much much sensitive !!!! TOO LOUD! Why, why did people put bells on horses ? Its driving nuts , really !!!
Traditionally the bells are put with driving equipment to be calming for the horse. A lot of people believe that the constant sound of the bells relax them and keep them focused. The bells have also been used to let other people know where the horses are to avoid accidents.
This is beautiful. I hope there are some young people out there learning these skills.
Man what an awesome guy and video. His gentle demeanour around the horses is the same as my fathers.
What a wonderful video. I was born and raised on a farm 75 years ago, and watching this brings back so many great memories. Thank You for sharing!

The series centering around Ralph is amazing. What a wealth of knowledge and experience. Thoroughly enjoy the conversation about his experiences.

What a wealth of knowledge Ralph has. I really enjoyed seeing him (and his horses) on TV.
Thank you Dickie, more are coming soon from the folks at Rural Heritage.

Yessir, the horses like to work. When we work together, all of us build each other's confidence and trust.
Absolutely beautiful big boys. I've driven some decent size horses, but not that big!
You and your horses are GREAT!

Hey, Bud! I'm a meat cutter for over 35 years now- was a farmer and logger before that!
Seamos sanos y feĺices.
I mean. That border collie sneaking into every shot, lol. S/he's clearly running the show.
Loved this video.
Yes, Cinch the dog stays close
Dad would save those big log for the 4th of July and get out the powder wedges for some fireworks farm style.

Good job with the horseharnes. Remember the leather one for your pony ?

"They will do it cause you asked them to " .
My Dad always said a good horse would drive off a cliff if you asked them to
Growing up, I knew one. Got to know me well enough that didn't need a bridle or a saddle. Now I know why my knees are worn out.....
cool
BLESSINGS IN CHRIST JESUS
You talk to your horses. They do understand you. Great noble animal - the horse. Man's history would be much different without the horse.
Thanks Walter, yes, I talk to them often. There is much wisdom in your comment.
I don't think my 47 horse power tractor would move these big logs any easier. I have some videos of my logging.
HE LOVES TO HEAR HIS MOUTH RUNNING
The bells are not too loud for them? They hear like dogs and its too loud for me.
My microphone makes them seem louder for sure. It's a softer chime in person. Thanks for watching
You are using everything with a good purpose,why not using mares instead of geldings?u can sale every ear 3 youngster,overall very good farming
Columbus most certainly did not discover anything
Don't like the bells.
Good grief use a tractor it's cheaper more efficient faster and lasts forever
Horses have been around much longer than tractors
Columbus did not at all discover America

@@smudgegrudge thank you Cherry. I think my microphone intensifies the sound. They are not so loud in person.

Thank you. I recently purchased a filly. She is in training now. It is my hope to raise a good farm team out of her.
