My dad was a micro manager of the Highest Degree, couldn’t be pleased. I left the farm and hadn’t talked to him in 34 years. I found out he died this year, from a distant cousin on facebook. I have a hard time watching some of these family farming shows.
Thanks for your video today Brian and BJ and DAD. It was most certainly interesting I must say that. Well, your day was not the best I guess. Lots of issues to deal with. First the combine feeder house chain. Did not know you had an issue there until your dad mentioned it. Getting that darn cover off took more time than adjusting the chain itself. What a challenge that was. I am a little disappointed in this Fendt. Seems you have had more than your share of adjustments too do. Wow. Slows of production it seems to me. Your opinion please!!!!!!!!!!! Second your grain leg. Didn’t they check it after supposedly fixing it???? Feel bad for you that it is not working right now. Hopefully they can get to you soon and figure out what is right or wrong with that grain leg. Pretty frustrating and it is not even mine, so I know how you must feel. Hopefully they get to you soon so you can unload beans. Wow, what a day you have had. Sorry for the day you all have had. Hopefully things can get fixed and going for you all again. Thanks for everything. Hoping tomorrow is better. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Enjoy your game tonight!!!!
Sure hope the bean yield gets better. I was looking at the drought monitor this morning. I believe it showed your neighborhood as the worst it could be. Understand the negitivity. Be safe this harvest. By the way that was good U Tube footage under the feeder house.
To get your feeder chain back to straight take a 4x1/2 inch bolt stick it on the top sprocket and turn the feeder house chain backwards and it should jump a cog and you are back straight
I think I'd rather take that heavy top door on a Lexion feeder house to slip in a 5/8th socket to put the feeder house chain back on, fortunately both our current Lexions haven't done that, but the 570r we had loved to do it
We actually did 120ac in one day with a 1660 case with a 30ft header on it on wheat running 45bu/ac. Thats pretty much a bumper crop in our area in southern Alberta but we have yet to replicate that day with bigger combines. Our 7120 we got 110ac and our 2188 did 100ac one day. Don’t have a clue how we pulled of 120 in one day with an old 1660 but we did start at 6:30am and quit at 3am so that’s probably how. With two bigger combines we don’t run near as hard as we used to with one small one
Wasps are never fun. And when you are up on a ladder or in a cage, you sometimes just have to take the stings. I got a dozen once, I was at the top of a 65' silo, no safety cage around the ladder, and the 🤬 wasps must have known that I was out of options. Was sore for 3 days, but my next climb I was ready with the Hotshot spray, and a good rope to tie off on the ladder while I hosed them down. Never went up again without the spray.
The best time to spray a bee or wasp 🐝 nest is when it is dark either just after sunset to just before sunrise now with that being said if you take a can of wasp spray and I prefer the spray that stays liquid instead of the kind that turns into foam they will both work but the liquid one works better on the nest and ok on any flying around I guess if you spray at night when they are all in the nest the foam might work really well and the cans of spray will shoot 30-35’ in the air so unless it’s pretty windy I can reach the the peak of the roof on a two story house without having to be on a ladder and if you spray it while they are active in daylight it will kill the nest and the eggs and the ones that are out of the nest will just fly around for a little bit and then they will go try and either start a new nest or hookup with another one and if any do come back like just before dark if they do go in the nest they will die. as far as the ones flying around outside or inside like in the shop while you are working on something just grab a spray can of brake cleaner and spray it on them and they will fall out of the air instantly I have read somewhere that it freezes their wings and like a airplane that gets ice on the wings it disrupts the airflow over the wings and it loses lift and then falls out of the sky if it doesn’t have the inflatable bladders inside the leading edge and it fills with air and expands and stretches the leading edge and the ice can’t expand that quickly and breaks up and falls off
Your dad's not worried about your legs he's more worried about us getting good contact.
Thanks to everyone involved in this video for sharing with us
That was hilarious hearing Bob say it ain't that heavy, it ll make good youtube content!! I lost it😂
Me too!
Bob is awesome I am glad he does you tube! You guy have the best dad..
Absolutely loved your dad's comment on plate hitting you making great you tube content😂😂😂😂
That’s a good name for Monsanto you had growing up they’ve embodied it over the years still do
Also listen to you dad do it for the content
Great video Brian. Thank you very much
Tough time at Brown Farm this episode…hope things get better! Appreciate the videos y’all put out!
Bob's comment, had me ROFLOL I had to pause the video to catch my breath

Great video I think all dads give them kind of hand signals when around equipment and get pissed when you go wrong way lol
Can’t wait to see how the honeybee does for you this year!!! Great video as always
"Itl make good UA-cam content" brian 😂

A poly insert might be a good winter project from the looks of feeder house pan.

Dad won’t approve that, unless he thought of it.
Your dad is awesome dude
The promise of better days through better ways. 👍
And brian if farming was easy everyone would be doing it it takes passion todo it
i sure hope the feeder house isnt the achilles heel of that Fendt
All the belts and pulleys is different

90 plus degrees that’s hot. Good video Guys. Thank you

"Dad, no offense..., but some elocution lessons wouldn't hurt?
Fugagsjsgxjsf hsgsisgstsjsn you! I beeean dooming thes faarning stuuuffhdgdjd for 5itty yeourrs. Quote from Dad.
Last year we didn't even fill tandem semi trailer in a day. Lots of less than 10bu beans, in fact lots of times it was zero through the field
Love the dust 😊
Ain’t nothing to it but to do it
You need one of those John Deere combines where you adjust everything from the cab lol 😂
At 1.5 million dollars also.
If you want any sort of harvest command . Claas is the way to go. Best on the market 👌

Crops like you guys got I don't know what keeps you from starting the morning out with an 18 pack of Busch Light
Great video good to see y'all
We do 200 acres a day regularly with an S780 and a 35 foot header.
Good job guys and good luck
Should have kept the Gleaner or bought a Deere, ha ha
Hope your fall harvest gets better
U guys spend alot of time figuring out all the new equipment lol.
great video
lol Bob says it will make good UA-cam content
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
I hope the poor service tech didn’t get eaten up by the wasp . The top of a leg sure wouldn’t be my choice to do battle with them.
LOL Dad" It aint that heavy"
Finally found a browser from which I can post a comment ....
What's the forecast on the double beans ?
Dumb question other then it being tough to cut why don't you combine beans at night to add moisture?
thank you
WHAT... did "dad" say???
Damn, yall can't catch a break.
Did the air reel keep the dust away better when you ran gleaner?
Not that heavy. Would make good you tube content…. And this is how the working words started 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Man that was funny
Got a nice shop and working in the dirt 😂that’s a farmer for you
I hauled some beans today that were run yesterday 9-22 that were 8.8 moisture and dirty
Lot bean farmer would love 35 bushel's per acre some not getting 18 per acre
Dont know if they sell Baygon in the USA but it sure drops wasps like the proverbial sack of poo.
Ask BJ what happened to his buccaneers
BJ has season tickets for the Cincinnati Bengals not the Tampa Bay Bucks
What kind of watch do you wear
At 35 Bush and acre you should be able to drive that combine 7 Mi an hour
Morning
Hi
Do you miss your air reel
Evening
Hummm when the video gets interesting the camera gets turned off….. it’s just going to fall across my legs….. that will make good UA-cam content
