Hi everyone, I forgot to include a link for the video on installing tractor chains the easy way. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/AjLe55vaoM8/w-d-xo.html Works like a charm!
Welp , personally I'll take any content you guys put out . It is so refreshing to watch videos on a regular basis that is not propaganda and false information hate and division . I find it these videos are very entertaining and informative and crafted in a way that makes it comfortable for people to watch the entertain and learn something . Pete every one of your guys' videos has been spot on . There is definitely a reason why you have the number of subscribers that you have it's such a short I'm out of time also I might add . I love the mechanical videos I love the animal farm videos I also .
Hi Pete, I enjoy watching your videos. You show how a good farmer treats his livestock. Townies need to understand the difference between a pet and farm animals.
Pete, l really love just hearing you talk and the conversations you have with the animals..... just makes me smile...in the crazy world we live in it is so refreshing just to watch you do your thing..
Best channel on youtube! This is the one channel our entire family (teenagers included) will sit down and watch together knowing it's going to be informative, honest, entertaining content. We all got JAFAF mugs and gear for Christmas.
No farm, but I have a senior dog so on walks, when she wants to eat grass, I use it as a perfect opportunity to just stand there and space out hard - haha 💛
Absolutely correct on the efficiency/small farm conversation. I grew up on about 100 acres with cattle, hogs, sheep, chickens, turkeys, geese, guineas, ducks (not always all at the same time), pasture, hay fields, small grain fields. When my parents died none of us could afford to buy out the others - the land was bought up by the farm family up the road - who are a perfect representation of big ag, farming at least ten sections of land. It's been many years, and it still makes me sad.
We are crying along with you. Same thing happened in our family except I don't think my cousins had any interest in what their dad did. Even though it put them through school.
Thanks Pete, I always enjoy the little sausages, they are a kick to watch. I haven't used chains on my tractors, I think my dad did, but I think it was sparingly. Back in the mid 60's we had a Farmall H and he would use it to do all his farm work. We had a 7 acre alfalfa field that I had my first real experience baling hay with. We also had a 10 acre, or so, field of corn, we used a two row corn picker on. We had pigs, chickens, horses and cows. Lots to do and get into. Oh, the good old days! Thanks for sharing and have a nice week.
I would rather do it old school than new school. I like the fact that you can take your tractors down to nothing and fix the whole thing. That's how stuff used to be made, you take care of it, it takes care of you. Keep on keeping on
I love the look of your pigs. They are nice and long in the body without being over done in leg height. I also love the various spotted colors on them. Honestly after watching your pigs and the proclivity of their mothers, I'd love to start with a few of your piglets on my homestead. They are just all around nice pigs without being huge beasts. (other than John, he's a big dude)
a small tip that my uncle in Wyoming used while maintaining livestock in winter.... He carried a compressed air tank with the proper fittings to hook to the hose after filling the watering troughs and blow out the water so he didn't have to fight the hose and drain the line every time. He was sometimes watering twice a day due to the coldness of the weather and some of the hoses were really long. He just had quick connects on the spigots and hoses and then the appropriate connector on the hose to the PSI tank to blow things out. but his hoses all led to a central spigot and had many pens to fill. Pigs, Heifers, Dogs, Chickens, etc.... I know you like efficiency so I thought you might like this tip. Love the videos and all the knowledge you provide. Thanks for all your hard work and entertainment.
My granddad was a hog farmer. He was proud of his porkers. He also had a whole section under cultivation. He was busy. My dad said they ate about 5-6 small meals a day in the summer months. They worked long hours. They rested in the long cold winter in MN. None of my Dad's siblings farmed and the homestead was sold by 1968 after my grand parents died.
Hi Pete. Please don’t change a thing about what or how you farm. We watch your videos because we like you the way you are. During these Covid lockdowns it is a breath of fresh air to see how you farm. Thanks 🙏
I bought a two acre farm and have been slowing working on getting it up and running. Unfortunately I was moving a cabinet and pulled it too far out of my trailer bed. It fell and ripped my bicep tendon. I’m sitting here watching you put on chains with two arms, realizing how important having a working second arm is for a farmer. It’s been difficult but I’m getting surgery and hopefully i get back my full strength soon, because my farm needs me. Luckily I have a lot of people who have stepped up to help me out.
Just stumbled upon your channel a couple weeks ago and my father and I have been binge watching your channel! We find your videos to be very relaxing, calming and a VERY awesome escape from the busy world. Please continue doing what you're doing!
I totally agree with what you said about efficiency, sometimes you just can’t invent the better mouse trap. We should be on our farm in a few months that we bought in Tennessee. We have so much to do to get it up and running. It’s was overgrown and idle for 5 1/2 years. Watching your videos will save me a lot of missteps I would have made had I not found your channel. Thanks Pete.
HELLO PETE/HILLARY... AS STATED,,I REALLY DO LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR VIDEOS,,,they are so refreshing & relaxing,, in a world that's kinda turned up-side down. Rht/Florence.
A little down time to watch n listen, maybe even day dream, is a good thing in my book. I am also an efficiency person, Pete. Some suggestions seem good on the surface but as I watch you and Hillary work I begin to better understand your methods.
Lovely to see what's happening on a cold day. We used to keep the bedding in the cow shed all winter and only empty it in the spring when the cows returned to the pasture. It ws pretty deep by then. The other thing I notice is the dramatic change in the quantities of eggs laid by my hens as soon as we pass the winter solstice on December 21. Keep up the great content 😊
I am tired and cold just watching this video. So much work in a farm regardless of the weather. Love your videos. I am trying to convince my wife about keeping chickens for eggs.
Great video! I loved Rusty looking at you while you walked past the barn talking about the pigs feed mix. In my head he was thinking "if i don't move he won't see me". 😁
I’m glad that you decided to call the calf Rusty. It fits and he is a beautiful animal. I enjoy all of your videos . Some better than others but they’re all delightful. Thanks for your resolve!
19:03 thank you Pete, I love it when you share your days. I miss working on the old beef farm, worked on a dairy farm too, but the beef farm was where the best memories are.
Honestly Pete, is there anything you can’t do? Sustainable architecture, home construction/rebuild, animal husbandry, poultry farming, mechanics, writing, clock repair, small business management, philosophy. What else?! Film production…and comedy??? That’s actually an art form and you’re rocking it! I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago looking for “farmer’s market” advice and I can’t stop watching. I’m in the middle of reading your book now, and I love how as you describe your journey and what you have done with the place, I can picture it in my mind from watching the videos of your farm. I live on 3.5 acres in the middle of no-where Wyoming and love to see others living a happy self-sustaining life. Thanks for the gift of your story!
Hello Pete, I’ve been watching your channel. I don’t live too far away from here I live in Apalachin N Y I worked on a farm for 16 years I’m not you’re going through. Keep up the good work.
The piglets are adorable, cute little hams! I really enjoy watching your videos. So many things you do daily on the farm reminds me of my dad. A lot of equipment you have he had back in the sixties.
I love your videos. Something about them is just calming and relaxing, I love all of it. Tractor videos, animal videos, market videos! Hope you guys are doing well!
I got a shrink hose last winter and it’s been a real life saver. I can easily put it in a bucket and take it back in with me. My pigs bent up cattle and pig panels like they were made of baling wire. 😫
Yes! Shrink hoses are great. However I have a large problem with water pressure at the hydrant spurting out unexpectedly, wildly knocking the hose out of the horse tank onto the ground.
Thank you for the video. Farm animals usually do good during winter as long as they have nice dry place to stay in with plenty of clean water and food. Yours are doing great. God bless
Great channel. I always get something from your observations. We don't have enough good conversation anymore. The way you do things on the farm is plain and just common sense.
I screen shot the snowy scene with the old International with the barn in the back around as my wall paper on my computer. Such a quiet lovely setting . Thanks!
Hey Pete, im a honey bee rancher and an avid skier. I know the last episode you said you were looking for winter gloves. I recommend Kinco WINTER gloves. They have them in Mitts and in Glove form. You probably want the dexterity but the mitts also have an 5 finger insert for added warmth. They are made from pig leather too so extra durability. They come with a back of wax to keep them water proof. Suggest you buy a tube of it as well. You'll need to re-apply a few times each winter. I've skied with them and worked with them and they hold up better than most and they are relatively low cost. They have a work version but they are not insulated. I have them too and they've lasted a really long time.
As a ex truck driver I was like what are you doing chaining like that but like a hammer blow to the head I finally caught on.Very nice by the way.I guess I was equating a tractor tire to chaining a big rig.lol!
Greetings from Florida! Congrats on another great vid, Pete! I really enjoy your vblog. I grew up on a small farm in Ohio and it brings back so many great memories for me. Best wishes for continued success to you and Hillary.
To-day you have nice blue Sky's,, & a very CRISP day,,, here we have -5c & gray skies,,,keep up the good recording,,, I really look forward to them.👍🏻👍🏻
Happy Valentine's Day have fun on your farm love watching your show and keep up the good work on those jokes I tell him to my grandkids and my brother he works for the American Airlines a my daughter God bless everyone of use and be careful and be safe
Lovely video, Pete! I think it's long past time we get that pendulum moving back towards 'resilience' from 'efficiency above all'. You're the pointy end of the spear! \o/
Love all your videos apart from when you put them in the pen at the slaughter house I know this has to be done it’s just not feasible to keep them all and it’s all part and parcel of having a farm hope you and the family are keeping safe and well I could watch them all day x
I just found some gloves at Lowes that are AWESOME for winter chores---they're insulated rubber. OMG--a game changer dealing with those wet chores. Love when you're dealing with the pigs. It's funny how skittish they remain. You're so calm around them. Perhaps they know the future????
I love your videos. Its remains me of the time my dad had his thirty two acres of land. It was also a lot of work to do every day. Sometime it was fun and sometimes

@@snarky_user I know, I'll be lucky if they don't tear up the tires and fall off the minute I back out of the barn. What could I have been thinking?
@@snarky_user We can't even get it in Australia so one less problem to worry about 😂
I really loved seeing the little pigs....so Cute! Thanks for showing them :)

You are a very patient guy thanks for the education
I definitely love the animal videos more( but that’s just me). I hope to become a farmer one day and watching these videos are so inspiring
I do like them all, but the animal videos are engaging.
They have so much personality.
Agree with you Jacob.

The "little sausage's" gets me everytime.
Thanks for the video Pete see you next time. 👍
Bacon seeds
I always enjoy having warm gloves at the ready to switch out on bitterly cold days. It protects your hands and allows you to keep working.
Your like me pete like to be outside what ever the weather is , the fresh air is good for us. The sausages are doing well .
What gorgeous weather.....blue sky and snow. A perfect winter. Pete you are living the dream.
Since I'll never have a farm of my own, Pete, I love to tag along with you on your sweet farm!! Thanks SO MUCH for taking us along!! ;o)

There is an adjustment that can be made to the water hydrant that is done above ground.

Pete, I love how you talk to your animals. You also talk to your equipment the same way :)
HELLO PETE/HILLARY...
AS STATED,,I REALLY DO LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR VIDEOS,,,they are so refreshing & relaxing,,

Loved the still shot of the Super C and trailer covered in snow, and the trees and sheds. A great farm picture
I am tired and cold just watching this video. So much work in a farm regardless of the weather. Love your videos. I am trying to convince my wife about keeping chickens for eggs.
The stock is all looking great! Days of sunlight are gettin' longer. It won't be long till Spring.
Glad that everyone it's ok over there! God bless! Hugs to you and Hillary!🤗💜🤗

I have said it many times, those piglets sure are cute, so playful!
Another day on the farm with excellent tour guide,thanks Pete
Always a joy to watch your day to day routine.

Nice tour of farm. Always like to watch the piglets.
Always good to see you and your critters, hope you are having a good winter stay warm ,only 6 more weeks of winter ,maybe cheers!
Hi Pete, great video AGAIN. Have a blessed day!
I’m fine too! Love being able to come watch everyone and catch up!

Thank you!! Will try it! ❤

Yep 👍 what time you will call
Thank you for the video. Farm animals usually do good during winter as long as they have nice dry place to stay in with plenty of clean water and food. Yours are doing great.
God bless

Great video Pete animals all look great when we had pigs we use to hang couple old tires for them to play with
It always makes my day when I get to see one of your videos . Thanks, Pete .
I love these visits. I wish I had some of your cold weather...we are 80 today and will be in the 80s till Sunday...even for us this is odd.❤️
I love your attitude towards efficiency. Your videos are so relaxing. I’m glad you have time to share your life’s days with us Pete.

On a hot day in July it is nice to go back and watch a cool video.
Wow! I guess you have to get ready for the next batch of piggy's! You just continue thru the year? I Love pork! Have a Great Evening!! 😊🌷❤
I really like your channel and your lifestyle.
I'm great...thanks for asking!
Pete, you made putting on snow chains look easy. We're ready for your next book, maybe" Pete's tricks and tips on the Farm!"
Lovely video, Pete! I think it's long past time we get that pendulum moving back towards 'resilience' from 'efficiency above all'. You're the pointy end of the spear! \o/
I always find your videos very enjoyable and calming to watch. Keep it up buddy!🙂
I watch your videos.....it's good to see someone one so happy all the time,....and you make me laugh.....
Thanks for sharing Pete👍
Love your videos Pete I have been following along for about a year and a half now keep up the great farm videos 🙏🙏
It's so important to find joy in things surrounding you and everyday activities:)))
Love all your videos apart from when you put them in the pen at the slaughter house I know this has to be done it’s just not feasible to keep them all and it’s all part and parcel of having a farm hope you and the family are keeping safe and well I could watch them all day x
I just found some gloves at Lowes that are AWESOME for winter chores---they're insulated rubber. OMG--a game changer dealing with those wet chores.
Love when you're dealing with the pigs. It's funny how skittish they remain. You're so calm around them. Perhaps they know the future????
Great video always love to see the animals.
Thanks for the cheerful video.
The cows aren’t the only ones who are content.
I love your videos. Its remains me of the time my dad had his thirty two acres of land. It was also a lot of work to do every day. Sometime it was fun and sometimes
Love the video! I learn alot from your videos so please keep up the great work!
