As a hog farmer from Iowa myself, THANK YOU for posting these videos. I have felt like things only happen to me and I just have horrible luck, but now it feels better knowing that it doesn't just happen to me!
Watching cornharvest on 21 december is unusual for me but fun to watch and about livestock, always something going on never as planned but thats farming in general, thanks and greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer
It always amazed me how one pig could keep pushing up on the gate until the flipper moved enough for the pig to open the gate and then run up and down the aisle pushing the flippers up. Pretty soon you got pigs everywhere. And once they learn something is loose… Semi-pro tip: make sure your exit doors are secure. 🙂
Good material thank you for the videos! sounds like a gate building issue. Ive been building/ installing gates for years and my customers have never complained of that problem. Good Luck with everything! Thank you again for the videos..god bless!!
Hey Tork and Sawyer. Love both the TDF channel and the podcast. You guys asked for talking ideas. What about the costs between milling grains yourself as apposed to buying in a complete feed for "the convicts" lol!
Hey guys, pork is the best value in protein, at least round here, where I’d have to take out a bank loan to by a standing rib roast for Christmas. So keep ‘em coming boys. THANKS!
Your right not everyday is a good day... I ran a cotton gin for 31 years 12/7 everyday was a Monday... the moment it broke down, I had to bypass the cotton it just had to keep on moving... sometimes if it's not the gin it's the employees, they like to hide and sleep while others were working... after the cotton gin I made parts for General Motors, it's different and easier for me... I worked for 15 years at GM I'm now retired, my wife left me best thing I won the big lottery, ii got 400 million my ex wanted me back... I'm fine being single, I bought a Prevost vacation bus... I get to visit my brother's and sisters and share the intrest with them every year... it's a beautiful life now, I thank God every Day.
I can relate to pigs breaking out and when that starts to happen it's time to sell, otherwise they will keep doing it. Been down that road to many times even with outside pigs.
The trailers aren't "heated" per-say. They have winter panels that cover most of the air vents. Then the combined body heat of the pigs keeps them warm enough until they can get to their new home. In the time I've been loading wean pigs in Indiana for farms Central Kansas, I haven't heard of any pigs unaliving themselves due to cold.
The question most often asked .Did you pin the gate. You know the answer is yes. Why do we ask , nobody wants to say they forgot. Pigs look good just don't make eye contact at that size they might have a heart attack. Merry Christmas.
Agreed!! But it also can be a gate building issue. There are tricks to building them and making sure the pigs cant get access to pins and loops. Ive been building and installing gates for years and my customers have never had that problem. Good Luck!! Great videos!!
I just had jail break pigs last week. Let them run the Alley for 20 minutes max and they got other pins open and got mixed up,so frustrating. No dead,but beat up pigs with lots of scratches.

what it is is the gods knew you wouldn't be your best after the party and gives you a shit storm. Have a look at how your gates are locked in maybe something you can change.
@@thislldofarm I love your channel! Thank you for all of your videos I have learned from them! I build and install custom gates and have never had a customer complain of this issue. My first suggestion is that if they can get to the flippers at at..then that is your 1st problem. Good Luck!! ANF!!
Life happens allot haha. Ole Murphy puts allot of hours in on construction site. What can go wrong will go wrong. If something goes right then im worried about the shit show that's about to happen because of it haha. Im sure farming is worse. At least I can go home at 5. You get about 10 stupid things that make no sense to 1 thing that goes right on the first attempt.
Pigs are like convicts? They're plotting against you? Leave the pigs alone and eat some Navratan Korma for a few years, Dude--life will be much better for you.
@@pettytoni1955 Pork is ok to eat if it's raised & slaughtered on a small scale by conscientious people who don't denigrate the pigs with bullshit redneck attitudes. Pigs are highly intelligent, much more intelligent than the yobbo in the video. And just for the record, Navratan Korma is never served as a side dish to pork.
@@pettytoni1955 You mean you hadn't known what Navratan Korma was until now? If you're going to approach Indian food that way, just gnaw off the heel of one of your feet, & plate it with a pork chop & a glass of Mountain Dew.
@@ericmalone3213 I think if you know how the majority of ingredients taste, you can gauge whether or not you'll like a dish. And what other dishes it will go with. I've never tried pickled pigs feet, and I'm not that interested in "knawing" at my own feet either. And Mountain Dew is too sweet and has too much caffeine. But thanks for the tip.

Much respect to all the farmers who put food on out table . Thank you.
Every day is a good day. Some are just better than others.
Thanks for sharing
Great video thanks again
Full moon making those pigs go crazy.
And that’s how you know when you are old, when you go to more funerals than weddings. Enjoy it while lasts young one. Enjoy it while it lasts.
Merry Christmas 🎄☃️🎄

Don't worry about making videos, it's Dec. 20th in Washington, IA. Go balls out and get the crop in before the snow starts flying! :)
12/23, my whole week has been that way.
A shit sandwich isn’t a defeat. Not getting up tomorrow to battle again is a defeat. Take it easy on yourself. Looking forward to the next episode.

Cinamatic excellence… good one
We use to hang a heavy chain from the ceiling with a piece of flat bar attached to they had something to do.

Love how you guys show the good and the bad sides of farming. Those pigs wanna be on that wagon and away to the pork plant 🥩🥩
I remember almost falling in the top of my papas bin when I was like 6

A farmer, no matter what kind of farmer, always hesitates when opening the barn door first thing in the morning
Especially on Sunday or promise your wife you will be done in a shop time and your can leave early!
Truer words have been spoken
Does a lot of your hogs feed most of the Midwest
Come down to Dallas and I'll personally buy you a ticket to the cowboys game.
Go Cyclones!!! Boo Hawkeyes!!!
All y’all going to be focusing on expanding your grain side of the farm in the near future? Like more land and your own combine and more bins?
That’s the goal!
Have had that happen many times in both our gestation barn and our normal barns we heat check at. Frustrating times thats for sure
Sawyer that's not a truck it's just a jeep with a bed . I was expecting a 2500 or 3500 Chevy. 😆
Great video!
It's a swine of a job you have on your hands there.
I have a question? When your baby pigs come in the winter are the trucks heated? And is that a issue? Love your videos ! 😀

Lol I know the feeling.. I call them a 24 hr wrecking crew.. They have nothing else to do but destroy things when they get big.

With real good corn you'll find you need two grain carts!
Okay,Warden!! Enjoy your holidays…
Glad you finished strong, Sawyer. Dang, those pigs have got to go! So fat!
Just tell me that no bacon was harmed in this episode
Sawyer that why you and your dad get the big bucks!
They are trying to go north and become Canadian bacon.
Hay did you'll have any weather problems last week ? Or did it all miss the Farm.
If the pigs that got out were the ones where the feed got shut off, I can see why…they went looking for food
It was a different room….
The one with the empty feed line was the only one that didn’t have pigs loose
Bacon on the run.
Sounds like you need trial out my new idea.
All I can say is bacon 😂
Sawyer
what it is is the gods knew you wouldn't be your best after the party and gives you a shit storm. Have a look at how your gates are locked in maybe something you can change.
You’re right about that. We went ahead and tightened the gate flippers so they can’t get them up as easy.

Did you just say that "pigs are like X-wives?" I am sure you said it!
Red ones don't break down
I have never been in jail, have any of you?
You need to pick a new football team anybody with the cowboys

I grew up an a farm and I know farming and get like the mats you have to hang ..granny90

I really like your channel guys, but watching the Cowboys aint good guys just more stress being put on you .

Yes, that makes a good side dish to pork.

I looked at the ingredients and they compliment pork.
