We live in southeastern Illinois on a 41 acres homestead. We just finished building our log cabin overlooking our pond. We are trying to grow our own food and raise livestock. Follow us on our journey living the rural life and developing our property and becoming more self sufficient.
I miss all the good work, that farming was for me.
So enjoy watching
Hay! That's a lotta work! I think I've already told my story about having a boss a long time ago, who used to say: "It ain't easy. But it sure is hard."
Working hard for your dream. I applaud you sir.
We are super proud of what your family has completed and built on your property. Very impressed. Little baffled how your pulling this off, if your still working your job. Lol. But we wanted your community to know how you have helped us to build ours. All your videos and your information you gave was extremely helpful. Keep it up.
Yes, I still work a full time job. I just like to stay busy.
Just an observation Evan, you can probably fill your wagon and drop it, finish baling take the tractor and the baller back to the hewse grab your truck luck up the wagon, and throw the twenty or so. You have left over in the bed.
My dad and his uncle, along with the kids, would bale hay. Using our Oliver 77 and a NH baler, we could put up 1000 bales a day. We used a six or seven person crew of adults and kids. Once the boys were about 12, they would be operating the tractors.
For this being your first year putting up hay, you are doing a great job. That's a lot of work by yourself running back and forth stacking bales. Great video.
In a previous video you talked about the Hood on your Tractor.
Try checking out an auto body shop for any of those fasteners that are hard to find.
I've been able to find almost anything in their catalogues, it's worth a try.
That thing sure does make some nice bales!
..GOOD ONE, KEEP SAFE AND GOOD LUCK WITH THE BALING..
After bale slide is polished up you might want to get some liqiud spray wax and give it a coat will prevent some oxidation over winter storage
Nice pond
Nice job stacking
Nice job
Instead of spreading the broken bale out and driving really slow you can throw the hay into the baler. It can go on top of the metal bars that push the hay down.
Hi....... Evan nice to see you good job, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐥🐕🐖🐈🌱🐐🎥👍👍👍
Great job your doin great
Pond is looking great
Good job! Try smearing some grease on the slides of the transport/ field position swing. Anyway you put up small bales by yourself is nothing but work! LOL 👍
Hang in there Evan, I know what you’re going through. Patients and persistent wins in the end👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Hopefully it will get better soon. Thanks for sharing with us.
Keep up the good work, Evan. Can't wait for part II of this. If you haven't come across him already, check out Pete with "Just a Few Acres Farm." He uses older equipment on a small farmstead in New York and also has a "vintage" New Holland square baler that he covered in a recent video. His uses twine instead of wire, but still great info about how they work.
My OCD thanks you for fixing the “short board” on the back of the hay wagon! 😂
I knew someone would notice. 👍
@@CountryViewAcres I was looking for the short back standard board too & seen it was gone. Now it's a nicer flat rack wagon.
Evan my man, next time you bale build a fence along the left side of the trailer to keep the bales from falling off, you wouldn't have to get off the tractor as much. Take a 2x12 add legs and there you have the simple fence.
chas viaud good suggestion or advise 👍
Nice looking bales. 👍 I'm worn out just watching you getting off & on the tractor & wagon so much. 🥱😁 Stay safe.
I know it would cost a few bucks, but a used accumulator and a hay grapple would save you a lot of work.
Thx
Great work, keep the faith!
I found one of my lost hay hooks with a tractor tire. Also found deer 🦌 antler sheds with a tractor tire ☹️ Keep up the good work 👍😊
Pppp
Glad those tires are so useful! :-)
Good job Evan. Glad you are done for this year with the hay. And I know you are . Time to rest. God bless you ,Rebecca and your homestead.
I think it’s just amazing how you are making all that old gear work.... old school! Great job Evan! Hopping up and down off that that trailer!
Normally I HATE travelogs, but looking over your place is a joy... and watching you jump.up and down off that trailer and stack those bales like a teenager.... well..... if you weren't in pretty good shape when.you started this adventure you are NOW !!! : ))
Great job Evan!! I love your perseverance! You’re such a hard working guy! I love your old tractor and the fact that you’re doing everything you do without going under in debt! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing your life with us! Much love to you and your family!!
Sure is good to see that ol' CASE earning it's keep. I'm glad you decided to keep it. Baling by yourself is no fun.
WOW Evan you're amazing ❣️👍 Look at you the farmer, eh? I can tell you love what you and Rebekah are creating. Great video content. I love looking at your place and what you're accomplishing with your enthusiasm. Keep it up. 👍❣️
I have a new name for you...Macgyver...from the TV show. Had a trick for everything. Think outside the box
Oh Evan,, We used to Bale small Bale hay many years ago,, 80's 90's don't miss it one bit,, we had one field which on average produce 10,000 bales,,
All stacked by hand,, We now big Bale silage+hay all done by machine, never have to get off tractor.... Bliss... Great Great video... 👌👍
Awesome video and God bless
Stay safe
My hay wagons are 8 by 16. I never put over 125 on them but a lot rosier to stack and 5 across. I’ve done some baking by myself but it’s not fun.
I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate all the different angles/views. I've learned a LOT about farm equipment here! Good job!
I used to bale kind of like you except mine went on the ground and take a truck with granny low and pick them up by my self.
Did many hours stacking on a trailer with a hook! Great video! Reminds me of 100 degree heat, hot Sun, & thirst
I need to get setup off the back of my 373 hayliner. But then again the crew fee to pickup looks to be worth every penny
Used oil will help swing baler,every farm has a barrel of used oil
Probably several barrels.
little oil or grease goes a long way
God bless us every one.
I have an idea, make bail ramp long enough to reach rear of bail trailer, make it out of sections. As the back of trailer gets full, remove last section. Continue until full. I know turning corners will still be an issue as it is now anyway. Well, never mind, after watching you, you did a good job.
Good that you found that hook!
Some terrible things could have happend...👍🏻😅
Looks like you have everything running pretty good. If you wouldn't have run out of wire,you would have had a perfect day
You are in very good shape to be doing that one-man baling routine. I get tired just watching you work! LOL. That ol' baler seemed to perform pretty reliably this time, as you've got it down to a system and have made all the necessary adjustments and maintenance.
That looks like a bale was complete quite quickly. Nice long, thick grass.
Sorry you experienced so many problems.
You are doing a great job but it’s a lot of work alone
You do need a stacker for the hay and if I was closer I would come help you, but the baler is working really well with all the work you have done on it!
Evan take the rake and roll that wet hay out into the sun and bale the other hay first and then bale that last.Just a suggestion I’ve learned my lesson about wet hay,you can also salt that like I think I saw you do before,anyway Good baling and God bless
cant help you on the square baler wire problem we havent got ours out of the shed for 6 or 7 years bale everything with the round baler as Curtis said oil or grease the hitch will probably help to swing it. you might be able to add a foot or so to the hitch and then some to the ramp to raise it to get above the 1st level so you dont have to lift so high just a thought for next year ( or just find a NH stack wagon) the small ones run around 3k but my dad put up thousands of bales with his NH1030 , one man 2 bales wide 3 deep and 7 high i think back up to a set of highline poles and raise it up put up the brace poles and your stack is done till the next load
Aaaaaa.... a cliff hanger! I already look forward to your videos but now I REALLY want to know what happens, lol. Pond is looking awesome by the way.
You can do it Evan 👍👍
When I was a kid, we used to spread rock salt between every layer of bales when stacking it in the barn. It was to prevent mold, and spontaneous combustion. Do farmers still do that?
We did that also if the hay was tough
I still do that
Never heard of it before!! Learned something new, thanks!
Makes sense the rock salt will absorb moisture and lower the moisture content of the hay, the salt residue will make the cows or sheep happy and healthy.
I'm your newest sub, # 51,2xx. Nice work on your video presentation. I enjoyed seeing the machinery I grew up with (still) being used. :)
You slid across that wagon like Luke Duke. Yeeeee Haw!
Your wire should be left in the box and fed through the hole in the donut of the box. Never remove your wire from the box. Also, the other reason your wire won't feed on one side is because you put the wire spool in backwards. You are most likely feeding from the wrong end of the spool.
Wait till the second part, you'll see how I screw it up. But the box doesn't fit in my baler, were the wire goes is round at the bottom, so a square box doesn't fit in there. Believe me I wish it did.
@@CountryViewAcres I ran a 216 and 224 JD baler plus an International baler that was a (POS) This was many years ago.
I never even considered taking wire out of the boxes. That baler must be older than the ones I ran in the 1970s and 80s. If I were faced with running wire from an open box, I would adapt the baler to accommodate the boxes.
Also, my old balers had room for 4 boxes so you could tie the wire between the boxes and if you were lucky, never miss a bale when the front boxes ran out of wire.
I probably put 100,000 bales through my 224. If you could find one, it would be a good investment but for heaven's sake, stay away from the older Internationals. In my experience, it was impossible to keep them operational.
We all used bailing twhine instead of wire so cut with knife or bust open over your knee when feeding your live stock cheaper too .
Your working your butt off BUT doing one heck of a good job.
Its'always something, right?! Nice camera work!!! TY
was going soooo good, oh well, you will figure it out
Nice video.....but please use a tad bit of oil on things.... Should be able to swing that baler over by hand ( on the level ) Can here it squawk from being rusty ! Oil the pin too ! Makes life must easier !
If I lived closer I would come ride on the wagon and stack your hay but I don’t. And instead of blocking the tire pull the pin and turn left of the baler really sharp and it should swing out. Good video though
I did the same has you today😊
Got to be a better way to get on and off that wagon! Has to be hard on the knees!! 😯
👍 👍
How many bails do you get on stacking ? We put 106 on . put one down the middle long ways , then put two long ways out from the middle . Second tyr put one long ways on out side ( pick one ) then two long ways to other side then stack the other way ( long bail opposite side ) keep going up six stacks , moving forward . that shouldd be 100 7th you can put 6 down the middle .
my wagon is only 7' x 14' and my bank barn roof is low, so only 4 bales high can fit into the barn. I wish my wagon was 8' wide. Longer would also help. This was the first year, I had ever baled Hay. So I could have stacked it better.
1970 an old man paid me $.10 a bail to move the hay from the field to the barn.😃 it was good money 350 bales on a Saturday and he fed me lunch at his house! Good times but hard work 😓
Holy crap, I was getting paid 15 cents a bale to stack hay deliveries in 2010. That was good money then, like 30 dollars for an hour, hour and a half of hard work, can't imagine how good it was in 1970..
@@Deere55 yeah everybody else I worked for back then paid me a nickel a bale.
Need a kid like me to stack those bales while you go😂 not many are willing to anymore
Hey Evan, I wish I had your energy, throwing those bales! Lol Will there be a part 2 video of the wrap up? Also, the pond is looking great!
I hope to have the second half posted Sunday.
Why dont you use a sled behind the baler then you wouldn't have to stop every 3 or 4 bales and you'd have 6 to 8 bales together, then go round with a trailer, would make it easier when on your own
nice job the side of the trailor your hopping up on is it worth having a plank on there so the bales slide further down the trailor without falling off
I noticed you were getting off tractor with PTO still running, just to be safe, I would disengage, too many horror stories with people getting tangled up with the drive shaft.
As long as the shields are in place, and you use caution, it can be safely left on. I grew up on a farm, and we never had a PTO incident.
you really need to grease the swing? of the baler where it slides on the hitch part. it takes way to much effort to swing the baler to work position and back. on level ground by hand. pardon my english.. :-)
Agree. Also if you pull with the tractor headed to the left so you are just pulling the hitch around and not the baler forward helps too. Get your tractor positioned first.
👏👏💪💪
I like your videos but I think you do not love your case tractor, I like to see the hood on the tractor
Great videos,
Running out of wire is better than ripping a rear tire on hay hook...farming . Lol
Nice video, do you use that tractor for everything or do you let him to rest and use another?
I have another with a loader bucket that gets used most days.
So much easier to watch someone else bale all that hay and move it around!
I see why farmers have lots of kids. 😂
I don't want to tell you what to do, but I wouldn't buy wire that looks even slightly damaged. Always seems to give me fits.
1:00 that's a farmer.
How big is your hay field?
how mant bales did you get?
Why rake the hay? Why not just leave it out, and then use the baler to lift the hay in one step?
I like your videos, but you need new music, lol.
That tractor no hood
I do believe Evan has noticed that.
That tractor no
Love Evan and his perfect tractor!!
You need a boy
