  • Rye cover crop is growing and we need to get it fertilized before the rain comes.
    After several days of rain, farmer was able to get back into the seat of the excavator and drop a dead tree from our pasture.
    I make some whipped tallow, which is great for the skin.
    The chicks are out growing their little brooder and I need to move them into the bigger one.
    Thanks for watching!!

    So nice to see all the new life on the farm. I remember "groovy" belts from the 60s. They were wider and had large buckles.😁 Too bad about the car and the deer. Tell the kids to stop playing kissy face and watch the road🙃. Thanks for another wonderful video. Nice treat on a Sunday morning.

    Living in a rural area there are lots of deer. I recall one of your previous videos showing a deer antler in a field. I recall it damaging a tire. Deer and vehicles can be a problem. It is good that no one was injured. My cousin in Saskatchewan hit a deer causing $5000 damage to his Ram diesel. Fixing it yourselves saved a lot of 💰 .

    When my wife was still with us, she frowned on my use of "brain fart". So I started using "cranial flatulation" instead. The guys sure have gotten proficient in the excavator fast. With all the beef cattle lost in the TX fires, has there been an uptick in the bull calf market? Beautiful markings on the twins. Blessings for the family and farm, have a safe week.

    Every year I sow triticale from my own harvest. Every year I buy new seeds for a small piece of field. Next year I have enough for all the fields and again I buy a small piece of the field to have for next year.
    There are farmers who do this with hybrid rye and barley. Opinions vary. I sow them as population varieties.
    Like your fruit trees. They survived the frosts. Mine are blooming like crazy. We have warm weather, I wonder what the harvest will be.

    I don’t think I could ever perform and plan as good as Kevin, I am more mechanically minded meaning I can operate machinery very well, I wish I could hop into the calf barn and give the calf’s some snuggles and cuddle with them. They are so cute. Love all your videos
