The bales you have tying issues with you can roll out and re-bale (tie them the second time) You also could double up the windrows with the side rake for less travel and quicker/better bale creation. And until you get the second remotes put on the tractor, you could probably run long lines with adapters to the load controls out front and use say the bucket control to tie the bales.
Love the suggestion on re-baling! I tried a few windows of double raking but I had to go much slower to bale so I decided to try on another field. I tried the hoses it need special fittings. On to the remote! 😊. Thanks for watching!
The log home looks incredible!! The next time you come to Ohio please let me know and I’ll give you a quilt for your bed!! What an amazing view!! I really enjoyed watching the work in the fields!! Lots of hard work. The encouragement you give each other is inspiring!! Watching Capella and Capone makes me smile big time!! 😊 I just can’t fathom anyone criticizing anything you do. People can be so rude. The investment ( financial, physically and emotional )you’ve put into everything on your ranch is immeasurable!!!! You all should be so proud of yourselves!! 💛
Oh my goodness Denise, thank you so much! I absolutely love reading your kind words and would LOVE to have a quilt (where in Ohio are you?)! It is followers like you that keep me motivated to continue making the videos (it can be hard when people can be so negative). I truly appreciate your positivity and encouragement❤️
@@freedomranchhomestead7961 Brooke, you’re very welcome! I’m in southeast Ohio about an hour away from Columbus. I have several quilts stock piled that you can choose from 😊 My grandpa taught me the golden rule at a very young age. So I’m a firm believer that if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. 💛
Well from someone that has done what you are doing and for years in the past and pray that the Lord willing will enable me to keep on for many years to come......Welcome to the Club.......It is a trip that will only end if you give Up......
Thank you for the welcome!! We are so excited to be one more step towards independence! Our animals are gonna LOVE the fruits of our labor. Thanks for watching and your awesome comment ❤
Definitely recommend using wrapping instead of twine on the round bales; they can be stashed in a single layer next to each other for a year even in the elements and the outer layer of hay and wrapping help it stay fresh in the center. As long as you're not trying to sell it the hay stays plenty fresh enough to use for feed. Awesome to see people getting into it!
@@chuckanderson1770a CLAAS Rollant 66 is a great net wrap baler and they are very simple to operate/work on. You can get them anywhere from $8,000-$15,000 depending on condition, bale count and year. It’s a roller type baler so no belts I think you would enjoy it much better. Also if you can try to get one that has a wide pickup on it, that thing will eat some huge thick windrows like nobodies business! I’m starting a hay business this year 24 years old I’ve never done the full operation of making hay so I know the learning curves can be brutal! Best of luck!
Well done for having a go ....i bought my first round baler 3 yrs ago and i was unsure about so many things but luckily it worked fine..... im sure once you get that second hydraulic outlet on your tractor you will get on really well.... great teamwork from you both and so glad to hear you be so supportive too each other x
Good morning from Nairobi your house looks beautiful 😍am so impressed by the way you you figured out how to bale the hay😊 it's not easy and before you know it you will both be proz😊the farm and hogs look great enjoy your weekend and greetings to the babies 🥰 Happy Father's Day Mr Anderson,we love you ❤❤❤
Shutting down your pto with a full roll and restarting the pto again to twine is very hard on the main drive shaft on the roller it could eventually break it . Good luck JD has awesome rollers main thing to keep them clean and in the dry. Thanks for the video
Hay is fine looking grasses for the cows and horses, I’m sure they’ll love that this winter. Cabin is looking amazing Brooke and Chuck, a house to be proud of with a $100M dollar view. Happy for you guys the lord has blessed you so well 😊👍🏻
@@chuckanderson1770 you’re welcome Chuck ! Wow you & Brooke answered my comment 2 months ago and here I am the night of Sept 11th just now getting the notification from UA-cam that says you commented 2 months ago. I went back 2 months ago and checked and I wondered Huhh 🤔wonder why Chuck and Brooke didn’t reply?? Turns out you did reply but they didn’t send me a notification in July or let it show up to me until now. 😏 But that’s the way UA-cam sometimes drops the ball. This is why people shouldn’t fly off the handle and think that just because they don’t see it posted right away that it wasn’t posted right away!!!! Because computers or people working for the platform (YT) or others sometimes drop the ball.

@@freedomranchhomestead7961 You’re welcome & Thank You Brooke the same here that I just told Chuck.

MY FAVORITE VIRGINIA RANCH UA-cam FAMILY ❤️
I'm a bit surprised that tractor didn't have 2 remotes standard. That's going to be a sweet setup once you get that second remote installed. I'm sure that had to be a huge pain to constantly switch out the hydraulics for each bale.
It was a HUGE pain! It will truly be such a time saver and physical break to have the second remote installed. A one person job turned into a two person. Thanks for watching!
@@prima164thanks for the suggestion on 6-8 second counts at each mark! I grew up square baling on a Wisconsin dairy farm and totally agree on the dangers of farm equip! What is new to me is working on hills and round baling. Thanks for watching and the tips!
First time here great video!! Enjoy about any kind of tractor work lol looks like a fine job never had the opportunity to do the hay but love being on tractor doin whatever. Believe ya'll did a fantastic job for First time and main thing you are doin it together n havin fun that's all that matters. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun enjoy ya'lls homestead
I’ve found that a lot of hay rots when I stacked them outside…rain gets between the bales and never drys again causing mold and rotting……if you have room I suggest placing them in rows with 12 in. Space between each bale…..just tryin to help
Hi thanks for the suggestion! We did cover these with a tarp so I’m hoping that will help. I will keep your suggestion in mind if we don’t cover. Thanks for watching!
Yes, the rotting is a huge fear of ours, especially after all the hard work to create the bales. We covered them with tarps and have on our to-do list to build a shed for future coverage. Thanks for watching and for your help!
Working whit your partner and being able to keep the good mood all the way through is truly perfect treatment for a relationship, at least so I've noticed myself after 18 years together.
Well put! We have fun working together and learning new things. It truly brings us closer together overcoming obstacles and getting tasks done! I'm happy to hear that is the case for you and your loved one ❤️
Great job, Chuck & Brook! Don’t listen to the naysayers, it’s your first time doing it yourself. Big difference than doing it when you were under the tutelage of your father who was probably a pro. I imagine the equipment was probably different as well. By the time you get ready to start on the second cutting you will be a pro. The house looks beautiful! Thanks for the tour.
Thank you!! We are learning and definitely feeling pleased with how things are progressing! We have honestly had the best time figuring everything out together. A team effort! We appreciate you being such a loyal supporter of ours ❤
chuck, as you well know, most people who have lived in the applachian area all have someone in their family hurt or killed in a tractor mishap. be smart, be careful, and dont apologize or justify to anyone who questions what you spend on your farm. your hard work and entrepreneurship have given you the blessings in life to live your best life according to what you want. good job!
Norm thanks for the kind words! As much as we try to be safe, this is still dangerous work. I am grateful for our farmers who face this everyday. Take care and God bless!
Well not knowing the variety of Hay, I would say that by the emerging seed=heads that it is a wee bit past optimum nutrient value, but as my Son would say "it is better than pine straw and snowballs" We restared the Small Family Farm after a 30 year hiatus which ended with the USDA dairy buy out in 1986.... WE row cropped Cotton and Peanuts for 4 years then were shoved us into where the real money,, Commercial Hay..... We are starting our 7th year supplying TSC with Small Squares converted from 4x5 rounds we baled,. hauled and stored especialy for that purpose....... P,S My Son put his City Slicker Wife in the tractor seat and she rolled over 300 Net Wrapped bales one afternoon..... Also if those baler belt splice pins have never ben changed -------- You are gonna have Fun...... A JOB that usually takes 30 minutes took us 6 Hours ......; and we are mechanically minded people'!!!!!
I see this was 3 weeks ago, I'm hoping pigs didn't have any problems but piglets have hard time getting through all that hay, thin layer of shavings would be better for them for couple weeks.
My mother took diner to dad in the field at noon. What state are you in? On my 4010 John deere I have single hydraulics. I have quick disconnects on the loader. I can put hose extensions on the bucket tip hoses. This gives a second hydraulic out let. You could build a manifold with pipe tees and valves. Open and close valves from the tractor seat. Hope this helps you.
Hi thanks for the suggestion and for watching! I tried the hose attachments from the loader but they cost as much as the extra remote so I have ordered that and we will see how it works. Stay tuned 😊.
I tried that but the hay was too thick and it was more than my old baler could handle. I might try that again on the next field with shorter grass. Thanks for watching!
I'm not sure but if the hydraulic line will reach the mid mount for the loaders third function you might get away with using one of those until you add a remote either way you learned how to use that bailer so next time will be easier. The M and R series come with different things on them and I think the M has a second remote and I'm pretty certain the R has Multiple remotes but they cost so much more and I think that one is just as capable for what you're doing.
Thank you for your kind words! We are definitely learning to let the negativity go and focus on the love and encouragement we are receiving. We appreciate your support ❤
Yeah they asked me that when I purchased the tractor, but I had never needed more than one set so I didn't want to pay for an upgrade. Guess I am paying now :-) Thanks for watching!
@ 20.00 you show accuratly the slope of the land. The view from the tractor is deseptively flat. I am off steeper country than that and it can make things tricky when baling.
Just curious, I've been in hay field for over 70 years, just wondering why you raked the windrows as you did??? just wondering??? and wondering why you run the gear you ran in...also, running the bind at the length you did...was there a reason for that...
Hi. I’m not sure I know how we could have raked it any other way. The slow gear is because the field is really rough as a former Christmas tree farm. I’m not sure what bind is . Do you mean string wrap? We are still learning so any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for watching!
Enjoy your channel, 2 things, and you probably already know this, a flat bed trailer with no sides will make life MUCH easier loading hay and I have the same tractor as you, absolutely love it but make sure you keep the front grille clean from debri, it can cause the tractor to run hot, best of luck with your farm
I wish we lived closer to you my family are many generations of farmers mainly corn and beans with animals beef, dairy and hogs and lots of chickens cause my wife and I could come help you figure out farming seeing I’ve been making hay my whole life lots of little tricks be safe I can’t emphasize that enough farming will bite and it’s more of a chomp
Ok I’m not a hater I’m just concerned being very inexperienced farmers you need to have your PTO covers all it takes is a split second to wrap a human up in that PTO don’t take the mind set that we will stay away cause it doesn’t work that way that is one of the most dangerous things on a farm guards are there so we don’t go to an early grave I cannot stress how important that is That is some nice hay nice orchard mix
We have great neighbors who are very helpful! I grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm but haven’t farmed in 45 years. I know a lot of the basics but am amazed how much I forgot 😊. No problem with the Haybine and rake but never used a round baler. I am getting that figured out and like it a lot. Thanks for watching!
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 King James Version 3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Gods blessings over you .
Can’t bale hay after the dew starts falling. Damp hay will clog the baler. Shouldn’t take over than 1 1/2 hours to bale 7 acres. This video is very tiring.
This was our first time EVER using a round bailer and we are just sharing our experience with how it went. We are learning as we go and are not afraid to show our mistakes.
The bales you have tying issues with you can roll out and re-bale (tie them the second time) You also could double up the windrows with the side rake for less travel and quicker/better bale creation. And until you get the second remotes put on the tractor, you could probably run long lines with adapters to the load controls out front and use say the bucket control to tie the bales.

You two are definitely in your infancy of hay making, we call them spool valves not remotes, written by a seasoned Irish haymaker.
Around here, the farmers call them remotes. It was new to me as well. Thanks for watching!

They never do end, but we keep chipping away at them and definitely seeing progress 👍🏻. Thanks for watching!

Well not knowing the variety of Hay, I would say that by the emerging seed=heads that it is a wee bit past optimum nutrient value, but as my Son would say "it is better than pine straw and snowballs" We restared the Small Family Farm after a 30 year hiatus which ended with the USDA dairy buy out in 1986.... WE row cropped Cotton and Peanuts for 4 years then were shoved us into where the real money,, Commercial Hay..... We are starting our 7th year supplying TSC with Small Squares converted from 4x5 rounds we baled,. hauled and stored especialy for that purpose....... P,S My Son put his City Slicker Wife in the tractor seat and she rolled over 300 Net Wrapped bales one afternoon..... Also if those baler belt splice pins have never ben changed -------- You are gonna have Fun...... A JOB that usually takes 30 minutes took us 6 Hours ......; and we are mechanically minded people'!!!!!
I see this was 3 weeks ago, I'm hoping pigs didn't have any problems but piglets have hard time getting through all that hay, thin layer of shavings would be better for them for couple weeks.
My mother took diner to dad in the field at noon. What state are you in? On my 4010 John deere I have single hydraulics. I have quick disconnects on the loader. I can put hose extensions on the bucket tip hoses. This gives a second hydraulic out let. You could build a manifold with pipe tees and valves. Open and close valves from the tractor seat. Hope this helps you.
Hi thanks for the suggestion and for watching! I tried the hose attachments from the loader but they cost as much as the extra remote so I have ordered that and we will see how it works. Stay tuned 😊.
You guys new to get a discbine and a new round baler with a kicker for the bale and need to run net wrap
If you would have raked two windrows together it would have taken you half the time. Good job figuring out the baler.
Excellent suggestion! We will try that out on the next field.
I tried that but the hay was too thick and it was more than my old baler could handle. I might try that again on the next field with shorter grass. Thanks for watching!
I'm not sure but if the hydraulic line will reach the mid mount for the loaders third function you might get away with using one of those until you add a remote either way you learned how to use that bailer so next time will be easier. The M and R series come with different things on them and I think the M has a second remote and I'm pretty certain the R has Multiple remotes but they cost so much more and I think that one is just as capable for what you're doing.
I’ll give you all an A for effort!!!!

NICE WORK .I THOUGHT A JOHN DEERE TRACTOR THAT NEW WOULD HAVE TWO SETS OF REMOTES
Yeah they asked me that when I purchased the tractor, but I had never needed more than one set so I didn't want to pay for an upgrade. Guess I am paying now :-) Thanks for watching!
unhook the loader and get longer hoses for the baler and have the door lines on the loader jystick and the tie on the back
Thanks for the comment. I tried that but had the wrong fittings. The long hoses cost as much as the extra remote so I am trying that now.
@ 20.00 you show accuratly the slope of the land. The view from the tractor is deseptively flat. I am off steeper country than that and it can make things tricky when baling.

Ok I’m not a hater I’m just concerned being very inexperienced farmers you need to have your PTO covers all it takes is a split second to wrap a human up in that PTO don’t take the mind set that we will stay away cause it doesn’t work that way that is one of the most dangerous things on a farm guards are there so we don’t go to an early grave I cannot stress how important that is
That is some nice hay nice orchard mix
Thanks for the concern! I grew up on a dairy farm and know exactly what you are talking about. I am looking into it. Thanks for watching!
One pointer, GET RID OF THAT “pto link”. Hook directly to the pto shaft.
In time you will get there. You need to find someone local, That will take you under their wing and help give you advice on how to run the equipment.
I have had cattle since 14 and was learning to cut and bale hay at eleven. I try to pass on the knowledge I have to those who will listen.
We have great neighbors who are very helpful! I grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm but haven’t farmed in 45 years. I know a lot of the basics but am amazed how much I forgot 😊.

That was about 7 acres. It is pretty rough ground so I can’t go too fast 😊
I have hay experience since 2002
Good to know!
You have to twin it
What does twin mean? Thanks for watching!
Not a pig that there's a hog
They have a lot of names

Get rid of that stupid pto coupler. They are very hard on tractor pto and can cause lots of problems!
Can’t bale hay after the dew starts falling. Damp hay will clog the baler. Shouldn’t take over than 1 1/2 hours to bale 7 acres. This video is very tiring.
Look like a kid baled the hay
I’m glad you think we are still kids. We are kids at heart😊.
You guys need to find a mentor.
We are doing just fine.
I would be ashamed to show this on you tube
This was our first time EVER using a round bailer and we are just sharing our experience with how it went. We are learning as we go and are not afraid to show our mistakes.
Give up farming... your dangerous
