I just found you guys through an interview you did with Iowa Dairy Farmer. Yep, I followed Dan to you. I'm an electrical contractor in North Georgia (Excuse me...Nawth Gawga) and love to watch other people work for relaxation.
I was looking for hog farming and thought about asking the Iowa dairy farmer if he knew any, but he's too big. I don't think he'd see my question. I'm glad I stumbled on these guys. we are a finish hog farm but I'm to afraid to post anything. I'd love to educate the world.
Great video. Sweet looking barn
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Im a young dutch pig farmer from the netherlands its nice to see how you keep animials
Can i connect to u please
ooooo I remember those days. lol wasn't nothing to get a backwards ride on a pigs back. i miss the farm. went to an Iowa swine convention in the 90s. nice territory.
Great progress on the new Hog Barn 👍👍👍👍👍
Go Hawkeyes baby!
You're seriously just producing top quality videos here, it's great! I love it!
Great job, We really thank yall for the work all do. Cause I love pork.
i love that you’re trying, great vid👍
That barn is going to awesome that crew is like a machine
I really enjoyed your video 👍 awesome sense of humor at 3am 😁 for a old man 💪I am in my fifty's and I understand where you are coming from very well 🤔hang in there and show them young bucks how it's done 👍 thanks for sharing
Glad you left the clip in of you dad that sums up every time you load hogs. Got to help a buddy load overstock pigs Wednesday got 4 loads going out. Hopefully can start construction on my barn next spring it will be like your new one.
That’s awesome you’re building a new barn buddy! I definitely prefer the double wide solid sided barns better than natural 50 wide barns.
WOWZERS! That barn is coming together FAST!
Thank neoliberalism for that
Good stuff
I really enjoy your videos and like how you work together
Thank you! Paps and I appreciate it.
New hog barn is looking great, guys!
I use to show pigs when I was in 4h and ffa here in Illinois and I don't miss have pigs at all.
Glad to see you went with a Kohler generator . I work there and actually test them before they leave the factory
Awesome! Thanks for watching! We’ve got a 100k at site 2 also. Trouble free. Very dependable.
i couldn’t imagine having to worry about videoing while loadin pigs. it pisses me off enough the way it is. props to you guys!!
Oh, 🤔and when my guy said "mother fucker" and went back and shut that door I felt that shit 🤧💚💚💚
Ur pigs are pretty gd at moving . When i worked in a piggery years ago ours wouldnot move they just hated bein moved stubborn little buggers i like ur shed layouts easy to clean up by the looks of it . Are u guys selling those caps with the pig . On them . They look pretty gd .
Thank you and Thanks for watching. I think the cap came from the NPPC
heeeeeey heeeey come lets go
I'm 45, and I definitely feel my age comin on more and more now. Funny thing is when I was 40, 41, 42, I didn't really feel that old yet. But as another friend of mine told me once, mid 40s, around 45 was when he started feeling older the first time.
Do you use hog slat for your equipment purchases for your barns
We buy some parts through our local Hog Slat store but PSI is our builder and we get most of our parts through them. Great service!
Hi, I was wondering about what temperature the hog barns are kept at.
We start a group out about 80 with zone heaters at about 88. The temp gradually ramps down to around 65 by the time they reach market weight. Obviously in the summer months the temp doesn’t get that low but that’s the target. Thanks for watching!
Just found y’all ❤️🤗
Man, this video took me back a few years. I’ve loaded thousands and thousands of pigs. 20 minutes is a good load time, but I know that Hatfield didn’t appreciate our 20 minute load times.....lots of fudged paperwork lol
I love bacon thank yall.
I believe I have used the same working words loading show pigs!!!
this is how real people live and work
Interesting video! Good lookin barn man!
Hey jan
Thanks man! Really appreciate it buddy!
Hey Jan. Watch you all the time. Just started watching this. 🇨🇦
Can you do a video when you guys pump out the pits and show how it’s applied to the fields? Do you guys dragline or have tanker wagons when you haul the manure out?
Manure episode coming soon! We dragline our ground and one of our neighbors tanks some to his fields. Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel. I like it, thanks.
I always dream work on a pig farm that big
That new site looks like it needs more rock! Hate to see a truck get stuck up there!
Do you guys ever keep any of the pigs for food?
Love the reliability of the Kohler gen sets but god i hate the doors on those things, they had some you had to take the side panel all the way off just to get to the control panel while Cummins onan are so easy to get into and work on
In reality the pigs do all the work of making a pig farmer a really good living. They do all the growing and producing food for America and other countries. The farmer is there to be a good steward and take the best care of the pigs as possible. It's important to understand this reality.
Good living? Used to be!
What size are hogs when you load?
270-300 lbs is the goal. The company we feed for markets to three different packers we have a wider window depending on how fast we need to empt the barn. Thanks for the question!
Loading pigs is not for the faint hearted🤣
Amen to that brother
@@thislldofarm I bet it's hard work, but you guys seem to be doin a good job, you're loading them on pretty fast, and they're not even squealing much, or trying to fight you.
Are they heading to another finishing farms.
Yes,
Some of the barns in our system only raise feeder pigs so we nursery extra pigs (overstocks) to fill those barns.
☝🏻☝🏻
Where were they going some only looked 14 15 weeks old?
They are just 50-60 pounds. Going to a feeder pig barn. We nursery extra pigs to fill other barns in the system.
What paps said ☝🏻☝🏻
Were you loading double or triple deck trailers? I've never loaded hogs in a cow truck, but I've load thousands of head of cows. Very interesting
I'm a farrow to finish farmer down near London Ontario and I was jw what barns you guys like better the naturally ventilated barn or the tunnel ventilated barn and why do you like the one more then the other ?
Is it just the two of you working on the farm
Yes sir just Paps and I 👌🏻
how are prices?? in germany very bad in these covid times.
You guys were pretty fast at loading those pigs. They seemed pretty cooperative, didn't try to fight you moving them, or didn't squeal much.
I just found out your channel an hour ago and i love your videos, farming is so interesting 😍
Good video !! What the weight yal shot for on a hog befor it gose to the packers ?
Daniel from central Mississippi
Appreciate it Daniel! We typically ship pigs out at 275-300lbs to the packer.
@@thislldofarm do they send pigs to feed lots like cattle ?
rain gutter and tank would get you a lot of free water with a roof that size
tork, what was the name of that one pig?...... mother something i think.... lol... hahahahaha.... great vid thx....
Mary, I think Mother Mary was that one’s name. Sometimes I get confused though 😂😂😂
There’s always that one
That’ll do pig, that’ll do
we show up here as a baby and we leave the same way
Keep showing of anamal so people how so eat more 🐎 thank you
If I felt fifty, I would still be kicking my heels up, but 29 yrs later, not so much.
Thanks for the upload, with all that roof, wouldn't "solar to battery to heating" be a huge cost saving? Even to supplement your gas heating system!
Why not farm your methane for the heating instead? I’m sure there’s plenty of poo
We have 60kw of solar at our first site and 30kw at the other. We plan to add solar to this site also. Eventually batteries also. Thanks for watching!
Guess you all have one driver named Roger Drips good man and my friend
Who do you grow for?
So are these going to be finished somewhere. They don’t look that big.
FYI - Audio cuts out at 5:37 to 5:53
You did not mention cleaning up the messy pens before adding a whole new group of pigs besides picking up the matts
Sawyer, I enjoy your videos. I can relate. I raise pigs also. What size are your barns? How many acres do you farm?
Where are the pigs going?
*Well it's official. I've watched every single video; do I deserve a prize?*
*Did you consider a solar array for that new building? It could supply power for the whole farm.*
The green mile
Why do you start at 3am to load?
So the pigs don’t realise they’re fucked.
Our “dock time” or slot to unload the pigs at the plant is at 6-7 am and the plant is 3 hours away so that’s the determining factor in load time. Thanks for watching!
What is the average weight of the pigs you are loading?
Sawyer, do you you have your own house on the farm as well?
Did his shirt say no where or now here
Nowhere. I always see people representing wherever they went to college on their shirts. I went “nowhere “ so when I saw that one, I had to have it. Thanks for watching!
“I’m sorry for what I said during load outs.” -Every person that’s ever loaded out
Amen to that! Thanks for watching!
I learned by the time I was 4 or 5 I learned to ignore anything that is said while loading pigs, it ain't a job for a sensitive soul!
Looks like you can generate more than enough BioGas from your waste. No need to buy LPG. An idea worth looking at.
We use all our waste for fertilizer. 👍🏻
That’s the beauty of it. You can still harvest BioGas and still use the waste as fertilizer. All you need is a BioDigester.
How big a barn with how many pigs does 1000 gallons of propane heat? And can you get away with not heating a barn in January for a certain size pig? It was my understanding your conversion rates dropped.
I know a guy from Illinois that hauls them girls in se Iowa.
Where in Iowa are you guys from?
Are you just hired hands for Tyson foods
Is there a reason you guys always do this a night?
Most all our “dock” times are early morning so if we’re sending pigs to Triumph in St. Joe, MO. for 6am, we will load at 1:30am for the drive down there. Sometimes we load at 5am for Ottumwa, IA. Just depends.
Thanks for watching!
@@torktalks5573 I've heard from a cattle hauler that he likes to haul at night much better because they are calmer and don't move around as much in the trailer while in transport. Cattle are obviously much heavier though.
I can't wait to see when you break that big bottle.
"Some days I feel like I'm 50 years old ." Says the 49-year-old man, "Well maybe 60, it makes me feel old."Call me in another 10 years and I'll let ya know, but until then remember your only as old as you feel. Some days ya feel fine and others ......well you know what I mean, RIGHT???
Could you do a video on how to get into hog farming
What out of pocket cost to have pig ready for the packers ? & do pigs get sent to feed lots like cattle ? Ok I'm done lol
Daniel from central Mississippi
Those boards will prevent; snow it the attica. An engineer from Florida or Hawaii designed that, right? You would not be k interested in buying the Holand tunnel, would you?? NO, perhaps the Chunnel, then?
👍
try watching the last DODGE BROTHERS FARM and cry with them.. a terrible example when you skip one procedure
this is damn good editing
Thank you! 🙏🏻
So much for stress free pig handling. LMAO
It's 2,580 pigs for 6 loads
3:46, shameless plug
At 11:45 in this fun video you mention widow's peaks. Here is some history on them in barns: www.hansenpolebuildings.com/2016/05/9-steps-constructing-widows-peak/#:~:text=The%20expression%20widow's%20peak%20dates,front%20of%20a%20barn%20roof.
If you boys don't cut it at hog farmers you always become Dairy Farmers I'm tractors all painted the wrong color
Your pop a reggae?
No bueno hhhh
That sure is a lot of bacon.
And bbq ribs, and honey glazed hams, and sausage patties, and smoked bratwursts

The guy herding the hogs onto the truck doesn't know what he's doing. That's not how you herd hogs.
In farming there is no right or wrong way as long as the end result is good. Every animal is different gilts are harder to work with most of the time than sows.
You must not be a finishing barn?
Trial and error also dumb luck
Young pigs sad
I would not call that a farm
We show anamal wefare
I just found you guys through an interview you did with Iowa Dairy Farmer. Yep, I followed Dan to you. I'm an electrical contractor in North Georgia (Excuse me...Nawth Gawga) and love to watch other people work for relaxation.
