Thanks for watching and the support!
You can't beat well built equipment that stands the test of time. For us as far as chopper boxes go it's Meyer's. Ours are 40 years old and still going strong.
I sold a few of those in the late 80's and early 90s, and they were great wagons!
"Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇲
That slogan is for the snowmobile line lol but it is so true for all John Deere equipment
I can’t believe how good these wagons still look. We had Gehl’s and no room in the machine shed for them.
I can't think of another family owned dairy farm that is as nicely set up as yours. Your dad has made sure almost everything is shredded, he was smart to not buy a lot of things brand new and let someone else take the financial hit. So many farmers are riding around in 80k pickups and 2 million in equipment sets out in the weather!!
Ahhhhhh, farm life. I love it. Hope you get a couple weeks of drying out. We need it. Stay safe and God Bless everyone.
Just watching these many farm videos here on UA-cam, one can sure tell which farms keep up on the maintenance of their equipment and the ones do nothing and wonder why it's broken all the time. Keep up the good work Kip!! 🚜
We had a 714 and that was an excellent machine. We used it as a feed wagon every day!
Sold 2 1976 BADGERS this past year I know different GREEN. 3500 a piece good old wagons 😢😢dad bought new. Thanks KIPP so much !!
I took a vacation from work drove up to Michigan from Louisiana to see my family on a hunch I drove over to Kip's farm Next thing I know they are crawling out of every barn came up and talk to me and my grandson these people are realHe took my grandson into the heifer barn and Kip's dad showed him his hot rodsI am so impressed this is a wonderful family and I will never forget this vacation
good JOB Kip, enjoy your videos. your pride shows, in how well you keep your equipment, dirt and your home. you can always tell a good farmer by how well he keeps his house & equipment. plus, you're a dairy farmer and that makes it 100 times more difficult to keep things clean and in working order. good job.
Kip I like your method of feeding the cows!
Nice collection Kip. Thanks for another great video. Please keep them coming. Have a great week 👍
Love the old school wagons and silo's 👍
Thank your family for making my grandson and I feel welcome after we just drove up there hoping we would meet them!!
Did you meet them?
too funny, just got done making a chicken coop out of a 916A chopper wagon, took the frame off and the front, the chickens are happy!
Really good video. Those 716’s are quite the wagon. Your Dad got some more good ones.
Great video! Thank you for taking such good care of your silage bag! I help my dad run a silage bagging business and it breaks our hearts to see plastic and feed every where, but you do it perfectly! Great job!
Matthew, what is the latest technology you see in silage bagging? Reclaim the plastic? Some sort of auger unloading system? Maybe some type of zip lock closure etc,?

Nothing really new, just bigger baggers and fewer small farmers. Some states will recycle it, but they limit the amount they will take and they are pretty particular how clean it is! I have only seen auger unloading system for small grains not silage.
Hello from Rosholt Wisconsin, just a thought, with all those beautiful chopper wagons you might want to number them 1, 2,3,4 ect... It might be easier for maintenance reasons. Anyway great videos I love watching them looking forward to everyone you put out. 👍👍
Wagons collected and experts on them like PEZ/baseball card collectors. That's fun. My brother and I were pulling out our father's corn planter yesterday and had to work around his 1960s AC silage unloading wagon. Most implements at the Age brands were made by smaller companies who basically painted them with every brand color and logo stickers. You probably know which supplier factory made your wagons or the main parts for them.
It seems that a lot of people would rather buy new, rather than repair. Your attitude is noteworthy. Use something until it wears out and then repair. Of course, you know what ultimately happens. You know your work and what is most efficient. I wonder why people buy "junk" and then they need to replace the equipment when they cannot get parts. What happened to "quality"? Thanks for sharing your day. 😊
Thank you, we all appreciate you brother
Howdy Kip
There used to be hundreds of them wagons on farms in Pennsylvania
Great awesome video kip
Nice collection Kip!!! Been off the farm for years,but I can smell your videos.
Thank you nice to hear about the wagons never thought about it, but I really don’t see them around our area. Have a great one.
I've not reversed with a two axel vagon for some 40 years, I do not miss it.
👍👍
I saw you at the softball game in NB Monday night. My daughter is on the other team. I walk by you on my way to the consession stand, but you talking with someone and didn't want to bother.
Deere silage wagon collection aren't something you see often. Kinda cool!
Boy they take up a lot of shed space. Nothing wrong with old wagons. We run dion wagons that we rebuilt.
wow...we lived in Cary for 8 years...beautiful place
Best wagon made used to love unloading corn silage in those. Still have the chopper for sale
We used Gehl boxes bought them 1965 new and the still worked great 47 years later. If you put them in a shed after filling silo they last forever.
Great video enjoyed it
Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable.
Wow. You have got some silage wagons. I totally understand why you are collecting them since not made anymore. Plus lot of farmers do not use them anymore. Equipment that is not made anymore is hard to find. You have a wonderful collection of silage wagons there. When you need them you got them. They all look pretty darn nice. Great to have them. Keep collecting them when you see them on a sale Bill. Thanks for showing us Kip.
You are really wet yet. Here in Iowa and parts of Minnesota it has dried up and some farmers are planting now.
All the rains and snow you had left you wet. Hopefully it will dry up soon and you can get to seeding and planting corn soon.
I see the cows locked up to milk. Couple of questions. How soon do you lock them up before milking and how many are you milking a day?????????
Wish our our farmstead still had a silage wagon, would make a deal with you.
You silage bags are doing great. Keeping the silage fresh.
About it I guess. Thanks for everything Kip. Thanks for telling us about the silage wagons. Was interesting.
Thanks. Take care and be safe.
The Iowa Farm Boy.

Nice looking wagons John Deere always had good wagons they don't sway going down the road
Wow that's a lot of chopper wagons. But I guess you need them. I've seen you have them all over in season.
we had 3 716As and a 1 716 i never got to use them but we now have their running gears under our kicker racks now
Great video as always!!
Thanks for the video.
Kip, Google: Cow That Wandered From Northbridge To Upton Sparks Legal Battle
Great cow story here in Massachusetts!
Agri-hitch in Arthur, Ia has hitches for wagon tongues and a clamp on tractor so you don’t have to get off tractor to hook up or unhook, I bought used so my Dad had it so easy, that’s a lot of wagons-green my fav color. Bergman manufacturing, Arthur Ia
Kip I feel the same way about the 4010 and 4020 tractors as you do your feed wagons. You could share the rain. Here in south central Kansas we are still very dry.
The hay and wheat look great. Those are really great wagons.
They are great wagons. We had 5 of the 716A and 2 of the 714A ‘s. Now we pull 26’ carts. Great addition to the farm!!
We had a john deere Gehl and a Meyers, they were all good if you don't treat them badly and leave them in the Minnesota shed.
Live near that farm where the wagons came from. They look way different than they did the day of the auction.
There were a couple farms around me that used to have those John Deere forage boxes. Both have since sold out and I don't know where they went.
Good show
Back in the day those were called chuck wagons lol
Love how you guys keep everything so nice. Get that white out! Is that a field boss?
What’s the story on the white. Gotta be something with all that green around there!
Their is a farmer south of my that uses around 10 to 14 of them and hand I don't know around 12 used ones sitting for parts here in wi.
FIL had a couple of those, he broke at least 3 wishbones on the walking tandems, farm near me has at least 15 of those sitting around
If it were me, I would take that oldest wagon and dissasemble it. Then I would have all the info needed to self make all the body parts for the rest of the wagons. It could also give you a test bed for self building replacement parts. Or testing things out. IE buying off the shelf chains, gears, pullies etc and see how well they work.
We use just about all red equipment here for generations except our green corn planter & 716a’s.
How does that White fit in with all those green tractors😂😂
Might have to put some PB blaster on the ol mans Tryke
You guys need to go back to case traction king, I have nothing against jonh Deer but I with put any big horspower tractor up to a 4994 case tractor ,they are as nice as they come, 4 hydrolic remotes, 3 points,and a pto, and they have a ful powershift transmission, just go look at one of them I am sure you will love it
Nice find on those wagons. What's the deal on that 1964{?} Studebaker?
Hang in there with the rain, we are rehydrated here after a dry summer and fall but could use some rain.
I saw that auction kip. I wondered whether you would be interested in them.
That's a lot of tonnage in them ag bags 😂
Can you find new decals for those wagons or do you tape the old ones off to paint them?
Would you ever consider selling one without the running gear or roof break it down and ship it to Northern Ireland?
Those are great wagons, but don’t let your green blinders let you overlook a more efficient option… I have 3 22’ Meyer’s wagons that I wouldn’t trade for anything. 22’ wagons would fill your silos up with a lot less trips than your 16’
What happened to the 8760 y'all bought a month or so ago? That would make a great backup to the 9560
you could swap the tandem axle gear to the nicer wagon.
Instead of selling the one chopper wagon, wouldn't it be of more value keeping it for parts?
How many gestations do you usually keep your cows?
Why don't you use both silage wagons as feed wagons for the time being?
Those were hard to find 30 yrs ago.
World record ?
Are you interested in at least one more?
If you maintain machinery properly it will last a lifetime and you will have sort of like a working museum lol
Thats when men were men
