Nothing like grabbing several of those green 100-125# square bales to make your Girlfriend or Wife mad at you when you craw into your rack (bed) just wanting to sleep lol!
A cheep strong solution for your battery to be protected is a ammo can! They very in all sizes cheep and is best I have found for it to be big enough to line it with some padding! They are water proof as well and can take a pretty good ass kicking! Great video good luck stay safe and hope that helps!🤙🏻
Just a heads up, your dogs toe nails can get stuck in those aluminum steps on the big rig, mostly on the way out. My dog tore his nail completely out of his paw twice! Anyway! Thanks for the videos!
That was some pretty good looking hay . Here in Ohio the square bales are going for $ 5.00 per bale . That’s for Timothy orchard grass mix , the same size as yours .
Here in Arizona those bales go between 8-10 dollars depending how much and how long the rancher has had them and the market conditions. I could never afford to buy these bales when they weigh about 60-70 lbs and I can buy 110-120 lb bales for 14-16 dollars depending on market conditions. They are way too expensive and one bale feeds my two horses for a day. That's not very economical for me. I know people who buy them because they can't stack or lift the heavier ones. I like that walk behind fork lift. That would be neat in my barn with the breezeway braces being in the way of using a tractor to stack hay.
Can you imagine if you could set that up, have a bunch of city folks work out one the farm, and you get work done, You could nearly set it up for free and not charge them
Them 2 guys love handling them bales with physical hard labor, But there is a better way to do it. That is a BOBCAT skid loader with a grapple on it, and that can do the alot faster then what these 2 cowboys are doing it.
@@iowANFarmer you have to use wire the size of jumper cables from the battery to the receiver and and from the receiver to the pump motor with a disconnect at the receiver like a pig tail. Then everytime you hook up to the trailer you have a steady supply coming from the battery and alternator. This works for my uncle's tandem axle 20ft dump trailer.
tray dean that’s just about the only way I could see doing it. Problem is that, that trailer gets used on multiple trucks, so I’d have to install them on every tuck.
@@iowANFarmer It will probably not be worth running heavy gauge wire directly from the truck. Just use it as designed and put something there to protect the battery. You could run a small trickle charger to the battery off of the truck's pigtail wiring harness if it already is not set up that way.
3:54 - Sweet baby jesus that battery has seem some shit! Its so old that on its day off you can probably find it in the back of a VFW reliving stories about flushing the Vietcong out of the brush when he was part of charlie company back in the day..... Get that soldier some R&R man!!
Curious as to why you put Amish in your title as nothing in your video is Amish tradition/related/equipment. A lot of people use Amish as a draw/ripoff on UA-cam. My mother and generations of family are Amish and really hate to see people abusing the name !
BS Detector it’s an Amish hay auction. And if you knew that much about it. You’d know Amish don’t like being filmed. Around my area this particular action also goes by the name “Amish hay auction.” I also do showcase related equipment. The opening of the video is me using the walk behind forklift.
Always loved those Bloomfield hay auctions. Favorite in my opinion
D
I used to drive by that store all the time from Burlington to kirksville, never did stop
Heelers are the best! Very handsome boy!
Ah, sounds like you know, everybody needs a heeler
Bucking hay, I remember doing that when I was younger. Glad to see young bucks like you doing it instead of this old fart!
Really cool video! Never seen the process of selling to an Amish hay auction before. Hope the rest of your harvest goes well too!
How well I remember handling the idiot blocks plus the little round bales from the Allis-Chalmers !! I'm an older Fart !
james west I’ve only been told about the little rounds, never seen them! Thanks for watching!
“Bandit don’t kill the cat” … love 💗 it!
I’m lucky I’ve never had to deal with sqaure bails on our farm. We always did round bails. Squares look like a ton of work! Good job loading them
They sure are, but there is a market for them!

great video! Bella my Blue Heeler enjoyed it as well haha
Another awesome video 👍👍 and get it bandit !!!! 😉

The old Cummins still working hard is good to see
That truck can make a short trip in to a long one. But it's great around the farm.
@@iowafarmhandanf2266 why's that?
These guys hurl those bails around like they are light.
They aren't light. They are HEAVY
You must have got some.💪😉
Heavy is when you pick'em up with the wire (or string) and the bale breaks !
Found your channel at 10673 altitude, traveling at 941 km/h towards New Zealand.... nice job
Now I’m going to have to say that’s a first! Welcome to the channel.
Redeemed Farmer I love New Zealand!
Farm fit program 👍👍
Lol " bandit don't kill the cat."
That was truly funny!😂
At least you're not loading 110lb+ alfalfa bails. Those are real back breakers. Cheers...
Great video
Keep us posted on what the hay brings. Good work!
Mike Ryan will do!
Love the videos first generation farmer here
Plastic battery box from hardware store and solar charger for good measures

Jason that’s one thing I’m always worried about is him catching his paw.
That's a slick looking ol second gen
Hahaha, this is some cool content! thank you for sharing. (I was browsing - shipping container dollys, when this video caught my attention)
Modular Living thanks for watching!
Thanks for the interesting video! Always enjoy seeing a nice auction, if you happen to be planning to film it! (with courtesy for any Amish present)
It’s a cool auction. Great cinnamon rolls. But I didn’t go to this one.
@@iowANFarmer oh, I see. it's understandable! thanks for your videos and the time you put into them!
@@iowANFarmer btw, If those cinnamon rolls are Amish baked, I have no doubt they are excellent!! thnks
CuriousEarthMan I don’t know what they put in them, but you can just eat one.
Bandit likes the way the cat tastes
He’d be all about it.
I remember one year their was literally no hay like farmers where bailing the side of the road because of how little hay their was
Cody Janssen that’s what it’s been like the past two years in our area.
G'day interesting video mate.
damn thats a lot of work
That was some pretty good looking hay . Here in Ohio the square bales are going for $ 5.00 per bale . That’s for Timothy orchard grass mix , the same size as yours .
$5 is what we can expect out of bales normally. But the better the hay gets the closer to $8 they get.
@@iowANFarmer is it even worth moving the hay to sell, if you only get $5?
skliros depends on how many times you move it.
Wouldn't go anywhere without my Blue Healer...
Spoken like someone who knows why “everybody needs a blue heeler”
Good video Ben!
Iowa farm hand ANF thank ya sir.

George VictorLast different bales for different people.
I like your workout program, move hay, eat ice cream.
shop shop we really focus on the ice cream part of the workout program.
@@iowANFarmer Cut out the middle man, trade hay for ice cream.
That’s good
New to your channel. If you grapple load bales in the field why not load out to customer/auction with grapple also?
Most of the time I do. Unless I can do it quicker by hand.
With that many small bales I can't believe you don't have a grapple.
I do, I just wasn’t running it for the day, with the way I wanted to load the trailer.
Put your hay on pallets. Keeps moisture out
Can you imagine if you could set that up, have a bunch of city folks work out one the farm, and you get work done, You could nearly set it up for free and not charge them
Bandit you leave that kitty alone!
Almost to 3k. 😎👍
Man oh man what a loader would do for your back, and of course load time.
I am in Ontario Canada.. small square bales go for $5.00 ish and 4’ round $25 ish
What kind of hay?
@@iowANFarmer I pay $6 for 3rd cut grass hay 50 # bales in SW Ontario
Them 2 guys love handling them bales with physical hard labor, But there is a better way to do it. That is a BOBCAT skid loader with a grapple on it, and that can do the alot faster then what these 2 cowboys are doing it.
That’s why I like the swing arm to dump.
My dog rolls in crap all the time to, quite annoying lol.
It’s what they’re good at!
Hay fever.
next time tae 2 straw hooks works easier
Run your power wire for the dump trailer off of a pig tail from the battery on your truck and do away with the battery on the trailer
tray dean I was thinking that same thing, if I could take 12 volts from the trailer plug. Only question is if it pull too much amps.
@@iowANFarmer you have to use wire the size of jumper cables from the battery to the receiver and and from the receiver to the pump motor with a disconnect at the receiver like a pig tail.

It will probably not be worth running heavy gauge wire directly from the truck. Just use it as designed and put something there to protect the battery. You could run a small trickle charger to the battery off of the truck's pigtail wiring harness if it already is not set up that way.
Is good.
There are undoubtedly hippies somewhere that would sign up for the farm fit program. I would and I’m of even a hippie
Foster my red heeler don't like cats found the one in the yard once .
bring it up north... were getting $9+ a bale for hay south of Cleveland ohio.
bobo caterpillar cost a penny or two to get it over there!
Hay is 14 to 20 dollars a bale here in cali.
Surprised that battery doesn’t have a mud flap in front of it.
jasonike13 now that’s one heck of an idea you’ve got there!
A plastic battery box behind the piece of mud flap would also help a little...
How big is the clear span hay building the Amish have the auction in.
I WANNA SEE MORE ANDREW, AN INTERVIEW
How did you do at the Hay Auction??
I agree....what was the outcome there...how's the price doing?
Rounds sold for $90 and the squares sold from $5 to $7.50
@@iowANFarmer How many square bales are in a round bale?

It took a couple of cats to train our heeler😉
I like selling hey your video was good. How did you get the hay put up dry it rained everyday here. Corn floats the boat and Hay sinks the ship.
It wasn’t easy. A lot of hay got rained on.
What do your small square grass bales weight typically?
How much money is lost to the auction process? Do you take the trucking in acount for your profit and loss figures?
They take a commission and you have to pay for your own trucking. We figure it in.
@@iowANFarmer still figuring on $5 to $7 per bale after all costs?
“Scale the pot😂”
What ya get price wise ?
MrVailtown $5 to $7
That Amish stores the one by Bloomfield correct?
Yep correct!
Here's a word of wisdom. Don't feed the dog before a road trip.
Timothy Hays lol I didn’t. Our trucker did. Fed him the leftovers from his gas station lunch!
So how good did it sell?
Cici Bradley $90 for rounds $4-7 on squares.
Is your dog a stud? I might be interested in getting mine bred to yours!
Yes he is.
We spent 40,000 on hay bales that’s 400 some
