@@billdozer189 haha…I didn’t even realize it. I assume it’s during the sped up portion…haha

@@coachwalkerspatriots5905 that tripod and solar battery is killing it for my coop cams…lol

No kidding…these things are ridiculous. Thanks for commenting. Like, share, and subscribe if you feel so inclined. Have a great day!

I must have done something right I suppose.

Gotta get that duck door freed up.

Very versatile piece of equipment…haha. No OSHA here on the homestead

I just took them off completely and placed them aside.

Laid it down in my driveway pretty good

It only does its job if it’s in the right position. Rather dangerous if it is folded down so it would seem.

@@amandawilliams2266 no kidding! Thanks for watching!

We just got chickens this past spring because our daughters have always wanted animals to show in our 4H fair, and these were the perfect animal to start with in my opinion. Didn’t wanna be messing with goats, pigs, or any other big mammal just yet. We have really enjoyed having them. They are more like pets at this point. We have 4 chickens and 2 ducks. Actually got rid of our TV subscription because we can just sit outside and watch them all afternoon. They crack me up. Plus we get eggs everyday!

@ sounds awesome man. I just started my rabbitry this summer, so chickens next year and if I feel confident enough I’ll move on to one of those bigger mammals you were talking about 😃

@ best of luck to you! I am really having so much fun learning about all of this stuff and working toward self sustainability hopefully.

@@mariweed100 fuggin genius!! This is why I put these videos out. I really appreciate the advice. I am definitely going to do that. If you haven’t already and feel so inclined, please like, share, subscribe, and check out the rest of the videos on the channel. Lots of stuff on there that I could use help with…haha. Thanks again for the comment! Have a great day!

@@coachwalkerspatriots5905 gotta have that power coming from the legs…haha

@@gingercholo Haha…thank you. I have been working on this darn thing for a while now. It has blown over once. Had to pick it back up with the tractor. I got the idea for the coop from another person on TH-cam. The duck coop and access door is an original idea. So, yes I was very excited to have gotten that done. Thanks for the comment. If you’d like please like, share, subscribe, and check the channel out for plenty of other silly videos. Have a great day!

@@campbell300zx no sir it isn’t. Might I ask what about it seems like a joke? I am honestly doing all of this stuff for the first time ever. Any advice, tips, or tricks are completely welcomed. Thanks for the comment. Like, share, subscribe, and check out the channel if you feel so inclined. Have a great day.

@@FuggidupFarms24i think hes just mad that you didnt mix the concrete first

I thought the same thing when I was told to just let it draw moisture from the ground. Stepdad who farms for a living and has set plenty of these told me it’s how he does them so I took his advice. After watching the video again I probably could have buried them a little deeper too…oh well. Learning as I go. Thanks for the response.

@@commoncents9732 that is definitely a good call. This coop won’t be active until the spring. By that time hopefully I will have the enclosed run surrounding it as well. Probabaly still wouldn’t be a bad idea as another level of security for them. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, subscribe, and check out the rest of the videos. Pretty fun times around here. Have a great day!

@@commoncents9732 I did throw a cinder block against the door for now…haha

@@FuggidupFarms24 If you have the land (which it appears you do) do not make your coop/run stationary. Put wheels on the bottom of it and make it so its movable around your land, trust me. The chickens need fresh vegetation, insects, etc to be healthy/produce the best eggs even if you give them premium egglayer feed. Within 1 week of being in a single spot they will dig out all the vegetation down to the dirt. If they remain on that dirt long enough it can lead to infections and sores on their feet and a lot more. You want a coop/run area that you can move every few days while maintaining a safe area for the chickens to explore/eat. I have had chickens since 2007, tried everything under the sun and movable coops are the only way to go for more than 5 chickens. That is just my advice from experience but if this plan you have goes south or starts having issues consider changing your methods. Chickens are amazing lawnmowers if used properly and they can eradicate problematic insects like ticks, grubs, mosquitos and more. Think about it but it appears you have the land to make a movable coop/run.

@ yes, I have heard a lot about mobile coops. The run will just be a place they can go to early in the morning if i don’t get out there to open the coop in time. The enclosed run will ideally be equipped with an automatic door that will let them out of the run and allow them to free range until they are ready to roost in the evening. This is in an ideal world…haha. I do have the land technically, but I am hoping to use the rest of the property as agricultural. Once we get goats I’d like to be able to grow my own alfalfa for them and still be able to put out a decent garden to possibly put out a little produce stand and feed us. These are all big ideas at the moment, but we are always working to try and make it happen. Thanks for the advice though. I really do appreciate any help I can get.

Yea, it was my bad. I honestly had no idea about the community guidelines about it. It was a 24 hr ban. I hear you though. Someone who was watching asked what I was hunting with and I held it up and showed it. Next thing I know I’m booted. Lesson learned I guess. Thanks for the comment. Stuck around and watch some of the other videos. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe if you are so inclined. Have a great day.

@@kintonhaynes4500 thanks man. Saw a few so far. Buck was actually still chasing. Nothing standing still so far.

@@mervinbeddard3163 haha…told ya it was a good day.

@@mervinbeddard3163 haha…it was quite the day. Stick around and watch the related videos to see how I ended up getting it out. Learning a lot as I go along…🤦‍♂️ Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day.

@@mervinbeddard3163 that has been the overwhelming theme from everyone. Stick around and watch the rest of the videos from that day. Was a long drawn out day to figure out a fairly simple way to get it out. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day!

Yes you could bend or break the flighting

@@coachwalkerspatriots5905 this is clearly a channel for intellectuals. I don’t know what you were expecting…haha.

@@randywilson9875 oh I definitely had to get the shovel out for a bit…haha. 😰🤦‍♂️Wasn’t too bad though. Stick around and watch the rest of the related videos from that day. Was a pretty interesting time. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day!

@@dannyadams5055 hey now…you leave my little tractor alone…haha. For the record, it is a work master 40. I don’t need any more than that for what I’m doing at the moment. Does a pretty good job most the time. Learning as I go along. Stick around and watch the rest of the related videos from that day. Was a pretty interesting time. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day!

@@robertryan4485 we figured it out eventually. Stick around and watch the rest of the videos from that day. Was quite interesting, but I am learning a lot from trial and error. Plus the comments on here are actually pretty helpful. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day.

@@robertryan4485 I actually had a bar through the u-joint prying downward getting it to drill. Then it got away from me before I could get back to the controls…and there are the results…🤷🏼‍♂️

@@bobdanob5346 hahaha…yea. I usually have a helper…aka child…helping me on the controls, but she decided to sulk in her bedroom over some BS that day. So I was out there alone. Thanks though…have a great day.

@@justinbower9014 hey now, my blue tractor has been pretty handy up until that point…haha. Yea, I really am learning a lot as I do all of this, and regardless of the “haters” in the comments I actually appreciate it because it usually leads to some pretty good ideas and tips. So I’m just taking it all in now and trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day!

@@kingstonmccrackin6390 haha…indeed I did get a shovel. Give the whole day a watch. It’s a good time. Make sure to like, share, & subscribe. Thanks for the comment. Have a great day.

@@redbovine yep, I’ve been meaning to do that since I got the tractor. Father-in-law is a master welder. Dunno why I haven’t gotten it done yet…🤷🏼‍♂️

@@redbovine thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have w great day.

@@donzwolensky6667 haha…yes indeed the shovel did make an appearance. Stick around and watch the rest of the videos from that day. Was a pretty interesting day. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day.

I am learning a lot as I go along. Honestly this is part of the reason I put myself out there like this. I am doing all this for the first time, and I actually appreciate the comments. They are occasionally pretty helpful so far. I hope you continue to watch the rest of the videos from that day. Sure was an interesting adventure. Most likely won’t do it that way again, but if it works then it wasn’t wrong…haha. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day.

@@curtism-w6b i love having these birds, but they can be a handful at times. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a great day.

@@chrishulbert7913 sorry for the confusion. The tattleducks video happened first. After the ducks got me distracted by needing to get the chickens back in the fence, they themselves made their escape out the back gate. Had to split the videos up because they were too long. Have a great day. Make sure to like, share, subscribe. Thanks you.

I’ll give you a pass, just this once!

@@AbdulKhan-di4ei why have all that shaft if you’re not going to use it…haha

That’ll just be a snack for the ducks. Imma dig me a pond out back…perhaps some fish are in my future. Don’t wanna be koi about it though…hahah

thanks for the tip. I am learning a lot really quickly...haha.

Now ur thinking .

Hey now!…haha. It hasn’t let me down yet. The ground was pretty hard. Once that auger bit it just took off. Didn’t have my usual partner on the tractor to bring it up in time. Make sure to watch all the videos from that day. Was a real adventure getting it out…sheesh. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe.

bingo

Very nice!…of all the stuff I forgot from chemistry, for some reason that stayed with me…lol

@@Isaiah-h1j shoulda just took the forks off from the start and wrapped the chain around the bucket. Woulda been able to lift more from the center I think…right?

@FuggidupFarms24 yes you want to lift from the heaviest point with a short chain

@@greenhornetsmitty6635 if I’d had my helper with me instead of sulking in their bedroom never woulda sank that deep…I love my children!!…haha. She came out and helped where she could once I fugged it up. Thanks for the comment and for watching. Remember to like, share, subscribe…have a great day.

Yea, after watching the videos I see there are many different things I could have done…haha. Was frustrated beyond all means so I wasn’t exactly thinking clearly…lol. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe.

Yeah man I understand not thinking straight when frustrated hang in there

@@Isaiah-h1jmake sure ya watch how I ended up getting it out. Pretty good time…🤦‍♂️

Yes sir, that option was presented to me. However, I did not have a pipe wrench handy. Seriously couldn’t find one anywhere around the stead…😅 Keep watching and see how we got ‘er out…💪🏻🤦‍♂️ thanks for the comment. Like, share, and subscribe…👍🏻

Yep been there done that myself maybe they'll figure it out

@ that was suggested to me. After looking all over the stead I couldn’t locate a pipe wrench. Stick around and watch the rest of the videos to see how i ended up getting it out. It’s a pretty good time…haha. Thanks for the comment. Make sure to like, share, and subscribe. Have a good day.

@@FuggidupFarms24 you can use the pto shaft to turn it backwards. you will need a little pressure pulling up to help you

I'm working on a conversion chart 200# pushing that auger around. we need some more data to complete the formula though.

Been buried plenty deep, but never been stuck like that.

@@coachwalkerspatriots5905 gotta give the people what they want…lol

@@coachwalkerspatriots5905 things can get pretty rough around here. You see the lock I gotta keep on my eggs…haha
