I like those headphones. When I get ready to buy some I am going to use your link. So the bees were feeding on sugar water in the cooler? Man I have some tractor envy right now. I got to get me a tractor. It did pretty good at diggin but you wasn't kidding about it being dry lol. They say those tree tubes work really great when you are planting new trees. I got to plant someone my prperty too and have looked at them. I don't have any experience with them though but they say they increase survial rate and jump start their growth. Man I have never seen a roadrunner before. That was awesome.
Southern Food Junkie yeah I love those work tunes Bluetooth headphones. I got them on Amazon. Yeah I should have described the bee feeding better. I put 2:1 sugar water mix with some Bee Pro Health essential oils I get from Mann Lake bee supply. They go crazy over the stuff. I love the LS tractor. I’ve seen those tubes. I didn’t think of that. I’m also thinking of running an irrigation line to those fruit trees with one of those digital timers. Take care.
Yeah, he got me. A cactus 🌵 has a hard time makin a livin in our dirt. What isn’t hard clay is sand and sand rock. About the only gripe I have about our place.
Heck of a deal on that trailer...at least in these here parts! I feel you on the lack of rain, we had that all summer!! Nice to see I'm not the only one with crazy clay soil! Good tunes bro, love it. Have a great day:))
A little dirt never hurt thanks man. Another project on the list without one marked off. Our soil sucks. Cactus would complain I’m sure. Take care n stay warm. Cold is supposed to hit here this week. Been in the 70s and dry as a popcorn fart. 💨 Sheesh!
@@anymanusa You can also get beat senseless by tree limbs hitting you in the back of the head that the roll bar catches. That's why it's down. I had it up and wore my seat belt when building my pond.
thanks for the sub buddy, glad you were on Yankees channel as you got some good stuff and cant wait to see that mobile chicken coop in action and finished
I'm really pleased with the LS. I made a small pond with it too. I'm surprised at how well it will dig. It pulls those 5 ripper teeth all the way down in mid range 2nd and 3rd gear. I need to do a review on it. Thanks for watching. Take care.
Yankees Outdoor Adventures yes and it sucks. What isn’t clay is sandy and some sand rock down deep. That’s why my pond won’t hold water. I put 600 lbs of bentonite in it. Seems to have slowed the seeping down some.
HI Jerome! Saw you on Yankees channel look forward to getting to know you and your channel. The compost is looking great, mine consists of the scraps on my counter that I throw in my garden! LOL
Hey man came here from Yankees. With all that clay you may need to start making pots. Good work with the tractor man. Need to get myself one so I can get some real work done. Keep it up.
I got a G3038. I bought a grapple with mine. I run it pretty hard, do you happen to know where to get cylinder kits for the lift and tilt for the bucket? One of the hydraulic shops in Pasadena, TX want $250 a cylinder to re-seal. I know the kits can't be more than $40 a cylinder. I can do the rebuild but can't found the correct kit... Great video, keep'em coming...
I have no idea where to get parts. It’s probably common seals on there. One of my rear wheel brake shafts is leaking on the gear case. All my hydraulics are still sealed good. It’s a solid tractor. I dug a little pond with it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Yeah, I don’t have one of those. That was some hard packed soil for sure. I’ve expanded that area twice as wide now and have three different compost materials in it. It works great. Thanks for watching and commenting.
NICE!!! Liking the compost pit Darren, ya gonna enclose it? On your orchard, is that a watering ring built into how ya planted them trees? I'd be interested to see how that goes!! Looks like you been getting after it brother!! Dan
I wasn’t planning on covering it. Are you supposed to? I was wanting to keep it so I could turn it with my tractor and not have to shovel on it. On my trees we Planted them in a depression so when we water it goes down to the roots because it gets so dry here and the soil doesn’t hold water. The trees are two years old now (since we planted them) and this fall I dug that large ring orotund them so they will get more water now. I about doubled the diameter. I’m thinking about putting some of that black irrigation line down there to them on one of those timers. Bad thing about that Is I would have to bury that line in that hard ass dirt.
I have 13 hens for laying. I don't have them for meat production. We got our original seven over 2 years ago and I had them growing up. Here are the general 'rules' I've learned with having chickens. You get about 1 egg per day, except during winter, when they slow down production. They need around 16 hours of daylight to lay an egg. Some breeds lay better in the winter than others. Right now, I'm getting about 1-2 eggs/day without additional light. That should give you an idea of how many to get based on how many eggs your family will eat or if you want to sell them (I don't unless I have extra). Inside a coop, they need about 4 sq ft per bird and they need about 10 sq ft each of space outside the coop (I don't see you having an issue with that). And you need 1 nesting box per 2-4 birds - they're going to only use one or two anyways... That's at least something to get you started. I enjoy having chickens and they are really easy to care for.
Mrs. Mags thanks for the info. I think my coop design will have four or five boxes and is 10x12. We won’t be doing meat birds, strictly eggs only. What kind of hens do you have?
Jerome Bee Farm I've got several breeds to have colored eggs: Delaware (good winter layer), Rhode Island Red (good winter layer, can be aggressive), 2 Wyandottes (one gold, one silver), Buff Orpington, Easter Egger, Cuckoo Maran, 2 French Black Copper Marans, 2 Ameracaunas, 1 Olive Egger, 1 Favacauna. Their names are Lucie, Ruby, Jessie, Trinity, Astrid, Cleo, Ripley, Julia, Diana, Jyn, Jayla, Rey and Jane. We name that after bad ass women on TV/movies. 😀 Their egg colors are light tan, rose, tan, light tan, blue green, dark brown, darkest brown available (when they start to lay), blue, olive, green. Because they're almost all different, it's easier to tell them apart and know who is laying and who isn't. I paid a lot of money for Jane through a special order, but I don't think we'll do that again. She's beautiful, and it's been fun to have her, but I think we'll just go with the ones I can get in the store. I'm a little disappointed in her egg color, it was supposed to be mint green, but it more like a light green. I can't wait to see the FBCM eggs. I met the parents and their eggs are gorgeous and really dark! Interesting fact: chickens 'paint' the color on the shell just before laying the egg. If you see streaks, it rotated too fast and spots mean that it rotated too slow. The inside of the egg shells will be white. However, blue eggs are blue all the way through. The color is added at the beginning of the egg development. Sorry for the novel. I love my girls and they're quite spoiled. ❤🐔
Pull the other handle up on the ice just stick the stick through both handles and close the lid it will be lower profile that way and the wind won’t grab it just a suggestion Lawton Oklahoma
I recently bought a Mahindra Compact tractor myself and actually dug a similar put myself, haha! If you interested follow me along on my channel at K6 Outdoors. Cheers
I looked at the Mahindras and the dealer here moved to Tulsa, about 100 miles away, so I went with the LS. I guess I got it right before all the emission DEF stuff went into effect. I like it a lot. It's been a good one for me.
Yeah, it has 5 ripper teeth. I wish they were on a hydraulic adjuster. It's a pain getting down and pulling the pins and moving them up/down. I used that box blade to build a pond. That was before I was making videos. lol You can see the pond in my 'walk in the woods' video I believe. Thanks for watching. Take care.

Buck says he scored one! Nice work done on the compost pile. You sure have some massive clay! Thanks for sharing with us.

Get that roll bar up!
No! 😂
@@JeromeBeeFarm you can roll a tractor without even doing something wrong and it'll save your life.
@@anymanusa You can also get beat senseless by tree limbs hitting you in the back of the head that the roll bar catches. That's why it's down. I had it up and wore my seat belt when building my pond.
thanks for the sub buddy, glad you were on Yankees channel as you got some good stuff and cant wait to see that mobile chicken coop in action and finished
PhilOffHisTree thanks Phil. We should be working on the coop over Christmas break weather permitting. Thanks for the sub.
Use your rippers on your box blade loosen it up then use your front and loader
the LS does a super nice job!
I'm really pleased with the LS. I made a small pond with it too. I'm surprised at how well it will dig. It pulls those 5 ripper teeth all the way down in mid range 2nd and 3rd gear. I need to do a review on it. Thanks for watching. Take care.
Wow that looks like all Clay😲
Yankees Outdoor Adventures yes and it sucks. What isn’t clay is sandy and some sand rock down deep. That’s why my pond won’t hold water. I put 600 lbs of bentonite in it. Seems to have slowed the seeping down some.
Jerome Bee Farm up here it is real Sandy! In fact if you dig a hole on a dry day you don't have enough dirt to fill it back up when you're done😲
HI Jerome! Saw you on Yankees channel look forward to getting to know you and your channel. The compost is looking great, mine consists of the scraps on my counter that I throw in my garden! LOL
Thanks for coming over! I’m ready for spring already. lol.
subbed ya from Yankees channel..look forward to watching more videos💚

Great video saw your meet and greet with Yankee we subscribed to your channel
Callie andherfriends thanks for the sub. I sub’d you back. Looking forward to seeing your channel. Take care.
great job !!
50 shades of green thanks, now need some chicken manure. lol.
Wonder if using the scarifiers on the box blade would have helped break it up?
It may have. Once I got a cut going it was a lot easier going. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Hey man came here from Yankees. With all that clay you may need to start making pots. Good work with the tractor man. Need to get myself one so I can get some real work done. Keep it up.
Backpack Bushcraft hey thanks! I may need to make some pots. lol. Thanks for the sub.
Hi I'm from Yankees channel I just subbed nice channel

Thank you sir. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Have a great weekend.
looks like this would have been a great time to have a toothbar on the ol bucket...thats some hard clay

Use your rippers first
What model Ls is that?
G3033. 33HP, 2015 I believe. non-hydrostat. I don't like hydrostat drive. Have to keep too many RPMs up. It's been a really good tractor.
Thanks for the response, love the tractor videos.
I don't think i could dig that deep with my 97hp tractor. Even my rocks are getting rock hard it's so dry.
OkieRob I know, it’s terrible!
How many chickens do you plan to get?
Mrs. Mags I haven’t really decided how many or what kind. Probably 6-12. I know zippo about chickens. Any input is appreciated.

Mrs. Mags great info. Where do you get your chickens and at what age are they? Like are they ready to lay, or chicks?
Just noticed you subscribed to my channel. Thought I would check you out and glad I did. Great channel!
Hey, thanks for coming over. I've been trying to make my videos more interesting and less bla bla bla. Not much to do this time of year. Thanks again!
And they say you can’t dig with a front load tractor.
They be wrong preacher Dan. I dug an 8' deep hole to bury a 2000 gallon cistern tank with this FEL as well.
Pull the other handle up on the ice just stick the stick through both handles and close the lid it will be lower profile that way and the wind won’t grab it just a suggestion Lawton Oklahoma

@@JeromeBeeFarm good stuff, its important to keep a good dealer nearby, I look forward to following along!
Too bad your box blade doesn't have rippers on it that would bust that dirt up so it'd be easier to get with the bucket oh wait yeah it does
Yeah, it has 5 ripper teeth. I wish they were on a hydraulic adjuster. It's a pain getting down and pulling the pins and moving them up/down. I used that box blade to build a pond.
