Grinding Cob Corn For Heifer Feed
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 гру 2023
- The corn that was picked with the Uni Harvester is being ground up for heifer feed with our Artsway 420 Grinder Mixer. The extra is just going to be kept in the extra Minnesota Gravity Wagon as there isn't really enough to put into the corn crib. Alan grabs the Farmall B to put the extra corn under cover.

Yes it was a good way to show the auction 👍
Hope Paul was happy with his result. All the best 👍👍
Nice that your neighbor gave you the loads of corn. But then again he knows gas ain’t free. Oh and congratulations on hitting the 30k sub mark on the ole UA-cams. Onward to 50 we’re rooting for ya.
My grandfather watches you everyday! Loves the videos! Happy new year!
Happy new year!
If you don't get another video out before Christmas Merry Christmas and happy New
Used to grind ear corn for our dairy steers. Nice to see the older iron still hard at work.
Nice to see the B out stretching her legs Have a good day Al .
The B did well to start that wagon, she had the will but lacked some weight, I live in cental Maine an there are no dairy farms left in my area, at least not that I know of. I watch a channel called Tayfarms. I believe its in south eastern Maine. If you haven't seen it it's about a small farm approx. 70 cows I believe, it is run by just the owner and a young women from that area. I think you and the kids might want to check it out. Thanks for bringing us along on your daily life as a family dairy farmer.
Yup, we enjoy watching her channel
Glad it all fitted. Know you drive the school buses. That is quite a job. Our small school (town of 500 at that time) had all of the farmers in the area driving bus as well. They were good and safe drivers and always enjoyed seeing them. I was so very fortunate as to live about a mile and a half from the school and also to be able to catch a ride on two different buses that came out our way. Was the last on and the first off, which I am so very grateful for, because it is a long drive for those who get off last. Figure it took about 45 minutes, because I did have to get off last for a while one year. Hope everyone is healthy. Thanks for the video.
Make tarp tight you know how those critters are you driving bus just for winter months bless you and your family
I'll drive until the end of the school year, which is the beginning of June.
Thank you for the video Alan. Always enjoy the older equipment at work. Stay well be safe and God Bless you and your family
If you had a set of chains on that B, it' would be a meaner machine!
Nothing like grinding ear of corn old school.
Looks like the B is running great!
Seen the pic of the lights up on the milk house. Need to go up around the roof line😁😁
In my younger days I ground a lot of corn cob meal. it's a basis for a lot of different kinds of feed. Glad to see you got everything done with the corn...
You said your headed off to work I thought you are at work lol
we have ben doing pretty much the same thing here in Rural Eastern KY..we use a old 2 row picker & just grow enough to feed the cows during winter about 125 head & help finish out a Fuw Meat Hogs(8) to a good kill weight at about 500lbs + be for they go to freezer camp & i must say they are very close...just as soon as it gets cold enough for a week or 2 !
Hello enjoyed your video have a great day.
👀🙄🐾👍Great video A&J
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊😊
Squirrels and raccoons are going to love you
thank you
"B" power!!
I bought a IH 1250 Grinder mixer for parts or repair, in need of a unloading tube and flighting. nice video.
That's what went bad on this one, so I took the whole thing off, and either fill pails or use a 4in auger.
Dad had a Bradford gravity wagon just like yours. It was bought new around '79 and sold at his retirement auction in '98. We ground ear corn out of the crib for feed all the time. It went into a bin in the barn and was hand carried in bushel baskets or pails to the cows or outside to the beef cattle feed bunks. I don't think grinding out of the wagon happened often if at all. Gehl grinder/mixer. Usually run with a AC WD-45 but often with a IH 544. The WD-45 was a little too small and would bog down if one pushed it. Shoveled many a load of corn into that grinder....
Those are nice tires on the B
Good video Allen
I was offering a tip for you guys at Trinity Dairy. See if you mix some waste oil with some diesel and use a compresser with a spray gun, spray all your equipment that's outside in the elements to protect them from rusting.
I work. On a farm and we do this, it really looks after the machinery outside.
1:01.........New cob corn picked in the fall and ground shortly after picking has ALWAYS heated on me regardless how dry I thought it was.
Very nice job and God bless y'all
Tks for sharing. Them little B's are good little work horses. You backed the 4 wheeled wagon in that little spot in one shot? Not many people can do that these days. Corn looked really good to.
We used tomhave a new holland mixer ran it with a farmall M. I used to see how far I could push it. My Dad would get so mad at me. That old M would hang in there. I still have the M
Grinding feed is one of my most favorite chores. Do mix any minerals in it right away or do you just keep it straight? Listening to your little B snort was an added bonus.
I usually just feed it straight.
That B just handled it.
Hi Alan , did you ever find those people that made the encampment in the woods? I have the same grinder mixer that you have, my dad bought it in 1976 . It was only one year old, great mixer and we use it regularly. Good video and take care 🇨🇦👍🚜❤️
Yeah, they gave me a pretty tough time about almost hitting their house. With the cold Temps, they decided they better move back into our house in their bunkbeds.
Ear corn is great feed, but hard to balance in a ration if you don't know how. 1 if those things that anyone can do with 15 minutes of instruction IF they have 30 years of experience!. Great video!👍
Hi Trinity Dairy,Ed form Vermont
It was the same model grinder I see you're using now
🌽 ❤
A lot of those cob corn kernals got lost somewhere in the operation...maybe because it was picked dry?
The deer had been in the field a lot, too, I think they helped themselves a lot.
Very nice. Will that give you enough cob corn to get through winter?
Probably not, but it should last a while.
👍👌❤️🇨🇦
Could you explain why you are feeding cob corn if you are already feeding silage?
It's being used for heifer feed
Do you feed cob corn to the milking herd also and if so why?
I have, in the past, because it makes good feed,and then we don't have to buy corn.
👍👍🎅🏻
How is 16 when my foot went in and I had to deal with that all my life
Moooooo
I'm 65 period and it still hurts
I almost lost my foot in inaugural on It was an ice storm and I was raking ear corn out of a crib and I was standing on that angle pieces and I slipped in and my Dad shut it off and you couldn't let go of the handle and I had to pull it out and it was pretty twisted up and still bothering me today
That stuff happens so fast!
Still driving a school bus?
Yep
Do ur kids play hockey
No
