Its got two bad rear rims that are loaded with calcium, a starter issue and the ignition system needs attention. Its going inside this weekend so all the tractors will be inside. Its on the list to get fixed this winter. I restored that tractor probole 15 years ago by now. That was the tractor I grew up driving hear as a kid.

Good for you what year

lol yes I do, A Yardbird Plucker.

Lol I know I know. Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do to get the job done. Atleast its not one of those green and yellow things. 🤣

Yes, it is. It's just a matter of having enough horsepower in those tractors to do those jobs. Thanks for watching.

A nice big pole barn is on the wish list. Rather high up on the list as well. But we are just not there yet. Thanks for watching

When the birds are at butcher weight, they will drink a 5-gallon pale down twice a day. Mostly just have to top them off up till that point. The one drinker that is faded bad is junk and is going in the garbage after this season. Sadly, it's the newest of the two drinkers. I ordered a Plasson drinker just like the other one from Hog Slat. When it showed up it was in a no name box and was obviously not a Plasson brand drinker as it was not constructed the same as the other drinker. Two months ago, the weighted bottom broke off of it and it doesn't work correctly anymore. So, I am just getting though the season with it then will replace it next spring with another Plasson drinker. I have been happy with the original one I got. Works flawless.

It's going ok. He is happy with how it's going thus far. Pumpkin sales seem to be down in our area for some reason this year. I've talked to several people I know that sell pumpkins and they have all said the same thing. Slow. But I'm sure there will be a rush in sales in the coming days with Halloween right around the corner.

The TC series tractor is not a rebadged LS tractor They were made by the Shibaura machinery corporation in Japan. The LS version of New Holland didn't come till somewhere in 2012 or 13. I was working at a New Holland dealer as a service tech through that transition. I was less than impressed with the ls version. That partnership with ls only applied to the compact tractor line I think like 45 hp and less.

@@Cobbhillfarms Thanks Matt! I swear TractorData previously noted our tractor was produced by LS, but looking at their info now it references Shibaura. Again, thanks for the info, glad to have the correct info. Either way, we like this tractor. It's the Rodney Dangerfield of our tractors, it gets no respect, but it's very reliable.

I haven't heard of any other issues with no sound. I have checked it out on three different devices, and all have sound. Does it show closed captioning?

​@@CobbhillfarmsI've tried it on and off and still nothing. I've got sound on the other videos I've watched today so I don't know. It's weird

@@kevinwallace4751 Thats is weird. Well personally I don't think you missed much without the audio of me blabbing on and on. 🤣But I might be a little bias as I don't like listening to myself on tv. But as always, I appreciate you watching.

@@Cobbhillfarms update...I tried again and I've got audio now. Idk 🤷‍♂️. But don't sell yourself short. I really enjoy your videos. Even though you do have a funny sounding accent😂. I'm just kidding

It's part of farming. If there being used there going to break eventually. At least it happened now and not during hay season. I have some time to get it fixed. Thanks for watching.

Thank you. Its greatly appreciated.

Lol. It's going to be a lot of fun I'm sure. At least I know what my first winter project is. Thanks for watching.

morning Todd. It was a chilly one out there this morning.

My local county soil and water dept will come out and take the samples then I believe they send them off to Cornell University for analysis.

Ya this is by far my favorite time of year.

Ya it will be here before we know it. We have had it pretty easy the last few years in our area. we normally get well over 100 inch's a year in our area. But not the case the last few years.

I think it's about impossible to find anything ignition related that's not made in China these days. To be honest I don't shop around, I just get what I can from my local NAPA auto parts store. Or if need be Steiner tractor parts. But if I could find them made rate here in the USA, I would certainly buy them.

Ya it's not the first time I've had issues with reman parts. oh well it is what it is. lol

@@Cobbhillfarms ain't no step for a stepper Matt👍

Hey, I'm not going to fault you for looking out for one's safety at all. What you couldn't see just out of camara view was the forks of the loader under the front of the wagon rack supporting the rack in case the jack stand did happen to kick out. One thing I could have done is block the rear wheels to prevent it from rolling either. Thanks for the comment and watching the channel.

@@Cobbhillfarms thank you for explaining it, sorry it just really concerned me ,I was just telling my wife he is old enough to know better lol and now I know I was right, again sorry for getting on you but maybe someone not as wise will learn something from our conversation, and for anyone who doubts what can happen I have had plenty of things go wrong unexpectedly again thanks for your videos and God bless you and yours

Ya it is what i call cold blooded. It will usually start even on the coldest days without much choke. But once it running, I might as well go back in the house and eat breakfast before I try and do anything with it. It's not that cold around here yet thankfully. lol

@@Cobbhillfarms all ih are cold blooded when warmed up they gogo

Morning Todd

Ya its cool in the mornings and evenings but still is warming up mid days. I know have a head cold. lol Welcome back to another school year. 😊You're in south Florida right? Did that hurricane effect your area?

@@CobbhillfarmsYes south Florida. We had a few rain bands but the hurricane did no damage as it was not close by. Once it moved north it got very hot and dry here. We are still having 85 degree temps here at night.

The only thing I'm trying to figure out how I want to feed out is the fresh green chop. Feeding/ storing dry hay in round bale form works well for our farm. The way you described sounds similar to how some of the Amish store their dry hay around here still. If that's what is good work for you than that's great. Thanks for the comment and watching the channel.

@@Cobbhillfarms yeah. Green feed operations you almost need that self feed trailer, or a creep feeder out in the pasture. I live in the south western part of Manitoba CA so the winds are extremely strong here and would knocked down a stave silo that’s newly built.

@@30acreshop_time Oh I can see where that would be a problem for sure. I'm guessing concrete bunk silos are popular in your area? They are with all the large dairy farms around here.

@@Cobbhillfarms yeah, there’s a large dairy farm around my area and they have a harvestore silo and a few bunks.
