Literally had tears, I'm SO thrilled for you and Erin. It might not feed them all winter but it's gonna feed them. Congratulations Mike. Praying for "poundage"! :)
@@philipquandt8976 It may not be perfect but it is food. With the drought everywhere and the cost of fuel hay is going to be very expensive this year. Grain is going to be even worse.
Thank you for sharing. :) .... {sighs with nostalgia and smiles} I remember those days back in the 1940's/1950's with the little round (later, square) bales of hay. Also the big canopy under the maple trees with old door/wooden barrel picnic tables; as well as chairs (rented from the local funeral home) for the farm hands. In addition my mother and aunt cooking up a storm for the men's midday dinner (lunch) The men were paid with cash at the end of the day by my grandfather smiling, as he shook their hand while telling each one them: "Thank you. Get a good rest; say hello to the family "God bless you and them." (Implying that they go right homerather than stopping at a bar on the way home) "Drinking at the end of the (working) day is one of the Devil's favorite activities" was one of his sayings. How I miss those dear old people!
I sure miss haying. Of course, that was back in the day of square bales, wagons and hand loading. But, it kept me in tune with the earth we live and eat from.
My dad always said every bale is important no matter what it turns out. It all can be useful on the farm. From composting for the garden or crops. Bedding if straw is scarce. Cattle and pigs sometimes will eat the good. Dad will start with the goats or pigs then put they didn't eat for the horses and what the didn't like than the cows and lastly the pigs did what the wanted. They ate it or slept in it. Hay never went to waste. One year we had oat hay because hay was short. Love seeing how the mower worked .I never seen a double mower. Ours was ground driven and the sickle bar was hand operated. The seat was steal and bumpy because it was steel wheeled. Out rake was a dump rake you sat onthe seat and when you can up to the row you pulled the handle and it drop the hay. I miss those days. Making hay was the best time of the season. 4 days of hard work and when it was done you knew all was well for the winter. Thanks for take use alone. God Bless.
THIS IS SO AWESOME TO WATCH. YOUR OWN HAY. EXCELLENT VIDEO MIKE. SORRY YOU GOT RAINED OUT, IT WAS IN A HURRY TO START OVER AGAIN. ALL I CAN SAY IS THANK YOU JESUS FOR THE RAIN SO MIKE COULD BALE HAY AND TEACH US HOW IT WORKS.
I guess you have to look at it like, well.. We've been in drought for 3 years.. Any rain is welcome! Even when it interrupts bailing the stuff you are wanting the rain for! Nice to see you cutting hay again!
I’m pleased that you are able to hay this year. Even if it is not the usual amount but with the smaller herd hopefully it will be what you require. Yah 🇨🇦🇨🇦👍🏻
Had to be a good feeling mowing and getting the hay ready to bale. Should save you thousands of dollars having your own crop. That is a lot of acres to bale. When I was a kid the bales were square. Oblong then. Handled each one on the bale rack. then to the barn or hay pile. Was lots of hard work. Thanks for sharing. Be safe. Iowa cares
Thank you Mike for showing us how this was done. I had no idea. Sorry for the mother nature and her great idea to rain on your parade. Woohoo first time in years to bail. Wishing you sunny skies and soft breeze to finish this as best you can.
Wish I were there if nothing else to watch I liked bucking bales on to the trailer of course round bales are another matter so glad you have hay any amount is better than none
Proud u were able to at least start the process. That bail looks really good. At least u r on ur way to great progress Mike, getting it done, that is the Mission, and the grass looks Healthy. Thanks for sharing!
Hello Mike, My Grandfather was on a open tractor no cab around him 🚜 in the middle of the field trying to do the same thing a storm came and he was to trying to get it all done be for it got to him. When lightning 🌩 struck him and he fell of and was pulled around the field with the chain ⛓️. He did die when he was struck. My father found him he was eleven years old. So lightning 🌩 does strike the tallest thing in the field.
I am SO happy that you guys got to cut hay this year! i remember starting to watch you guys at the end of 2019 and seeing that you weren't able to hay and then the last 2 years of drought has just sucked for you, so this is just AWESOME.
The first day of haying was exciting to watch. Such a different process from what I had to complete 30 yrs ago. Rain is never a good thing during haying season with the potential to alter the nutritional value. Thank you for talking us through the process!
The baler is doing a real nice job. That bale looked very tight. Decades ago we had to wait for a little bit before wrapping to allow the baler to tighten the bale up. Not all that long, about one minute was generally enough to tighten the last rounds of hay. But this baler did not seem to need that. In fact you need to pay close attention or you would be feeding into a wrapped bale since it seem to do it automatically. We had to pull a separate hydraulic lever manually to feed the wrap. But square balers are still more fun to watch and operate. Especially with a kicker.
Well Mike, I am so happy for you to finally get some hay down, sorry the rain stopped you. I know you guys desperately need it, not only will it save you money, but give you some personal satisfaction. Your bales look good, the Command Plus monitor does a nice job, I have a JD 450E, so I can't see the level of the sides, I just have to move side to side. Good luck on finishing it, that little rain won't hurt it, just aggravating to get that close and get stopped. Thanks Mike, loved the video, have a great evening, best wishes on the rest.
LOL You seem to be very experienced in haying. FYI, Adverse weather conditions during or post baling can allow mold growth, as it grows and thrives in warm and wet conditions. Hay with 14 to 15 percent moisture is subject to mold. Humidity, along with prematurely baling or excessive rain and flooding events can promote mold growth.
WOW! When that first bale came rolling out of your baler ~~~ I was cheering! Hooray! I think you should have 499 more bales just like that one! Good moisture! Your cows are going to LOVE them! YUMMY! Until your next video ~~~ Stay safe, healthy and happy! 🐃
So sorry that Mother Nature prevented you from finishing 😢 It was very interesting to see what goes on inside the cab of your tractor when baling. I had only ever seen baling from a distance. Farming technology has become so amazing...so advanced. Hopefully, you will be able to rake and finish baling tomorrow! Thanks...praying for rain to hold off until you're done😊🙏🙏🙏
I have had my fingers crossed the past two weeks, hoping you wouldn’t have a hail storm! It was great to see that first bale come out, and hope your yields will improve!
My dad grew millet for his own hay here in northeast Colorado. He had his own swather. I was fascinated by the way it maneuvered. He also had his own baler that pooped out small rectangular bales. It seemed like they were both ALWAYS breaking down. Some years the haystacks were huge. What a good feeling to put up your own. Praying for huge stacks of bales for you. CW
I watched every second of your video, with such interest. Its such a neat production, compared to when I was a child. Back then, the hay was cut, and we pitchforked it into piles, and then, the horse drawn hay wagon would slowly go to the mounds, and we would pitchfork it into the wagon. Hot, dusty work.....but we got it done! Technology has come a great distance from the late 40's, early 50's. Too bad the rain shut you down, but it will dry out, and you can continue. I just LOVED seeing that first round bale pop out, and it even got a little shove! FANTASTIC!! Thanks so much for taking the time to show us what you do. Its wonderful!!! Sleep well tonight....tomorrow is another bale day!! Bev in Maine
I've watched other farmers baling round bales and yours is the first baler I've seen that has that bar that kinda pushes the bale out of the way like that. Better than the others that have to back up the whole rig a bit before unloading the bale. What I was shocked at was how dry it was after only just cutting the other day. Glad you're getting some winter feed!
I am very happy that you have more and more rain and it's more regular this year. Not much each time, but all together is great news for your pastures.
I just got off work and I have my notifications and I see finally cutting is here but also the rain I’m so happy for you guys can wait to see the final product god bless you guys and the ranch
@@margephillips5951 1400 # on a 4x5 bale is very very very good!.. unless I missed something and it's a 5x5.. then that's a good pack on that bale but not exceptional. The biggest bale I've hauled out was a 5x6 at 1800 #'s.
Hay day is a happy day. I was taught that you should rest the field about 3 days to allow the hay to cure before bailing. Mold can be an issue if not properly done. But hey, everyone has their own methods. Good luck!
Its amazing how Faith can pull you thru the roughest of times. I hope God is good and gives you two haying seasons this year. You and Erin are very generous and thoughtful of other people.
That first bale popping out of the baler was one of the most beauteous things ever! Ok, the baby calves take first place, but this is just wonderful to see. Question for you, Mike, would it make sense to seed next year? I know the precipitation plays a role and its so unpredictable. What I am thinking is if you have a marathon video and we all could contribute towards the seeds. Just a thought. Praying for your success. Be Blessed!
Same thing happened too me my first time baling hay ever. Got to the last 2 bales and it poured but I baled the last one anyway and it is molding so I'll use it in the garden for bedding.
Seen that rain falling and knew you were shut down. Baling rain wet hay makes rotting and fire hazard bale's is what I was taught. Sorry for the delay but I've high hopes for better weather later or tomorrow. Sorta stoked you're into hayin'full swing!
Praise Jesus you get to hay this year! Was happy to get some rain yesterday [Weds.] Was sitting outside on the front porch making leather & chain earrings & came in to a video from Y'all! Goody! I remember baling small square bales for father's ranch in HS & shearing a pin & having to walk all the way to the house! That was one long walk!
So happy to see that you are able to harvest hay this year. Praying that you get a bumper crop overall this year, to the extent that you are able to sell hay to your neighbors.
So pleased you are starting to get your hay in. Praise God. Next, upgrade your mower, and then that first cut you made around the field should ALWAYS be the last!!! It is the riskiest; at least you have cut most of the field if you wreck it around the perimeter at the end of the job.... I learned the hard way 👍
Amazing the difference in yield from here in Western Washington. 1st cutting is usually around 5 bales per acre and then it usually drops in yield fir the next 2-3 cuttings per season.
Here in Missouri we are able to get about 2-3ton per acre fairly easy(with commercial fertilizer) It’s amazing the difference in the land. So happy to see you getting a hay crop this year!
Happy you’re able to hay this year; whatever volume you get will help the bottom line and feed the cows!! I‘m praying for a safe and successful haying season 2022!! We just finished ours this week as well, but we bale small squares…..LOTS of them!! 😜😂 thanks for another great video!
Glad you are able to bale some hay this year!!
Baling hay is one of my most favorite thing to do!!
The Hay bales looks professional and clean
My Dad use to say. “. If you want rain. Cut your best field of hay “. And it will pour
Seems to be a pretty accurate saying everywhere.
Haying always brings the rain but so happy for the hay!
Literally had tears, I'm SO thrilled for you and Erin. It might not feed them all winter but it's gonna feed them. Congratulations Mike. Praying for "poundage"! :)

I would not cut this and expect a cow to live on it
@@philipquandt8976 It may not be perfect but it is food. With the drought everywhere and the cost of fuel hay is going to be very expensive this year. Grain is going to be even worse.

Hate when your on a "Roll" and have to stop! LOL thanks for watching.
I cannot imagine going that slow bailing hay! Geewhiz 3 miles an hour. I think the guys used to like 10 and it was nowhere near as light as that.
Praise God for this hay.
Amen to that.
.....and pray for more than enough to get them through the winter.
Praying you have tons and tons of hay. God bless your family
