    I find these videos so relaxing. Oddly, an actual job on a dairy farm would be anything BUT relaxing. But fresh air, lots of variety, the animals, the crops, the outdoors, all the handy skills... seems like heaven!

    Don’t worry about the content being super entertaining Eric. Most of us did not grow up on a farm so we find all aspects of the dairy life fascinating. The little bits of information goes a long way.

    I think what I like most about your videos is that you show the everyday things that happen on a farm. change the oil, clean calf pens, spread manure... all the things that go on just part of what all goes on on a farm. I am always so impressed with how you are so good at running the skid loader, it looks so effortless. Now about your oil pan... I think we had one just like that... the old enameled drawer from an old refrigerator. Just large enough and not too tall so it fits under things with out having to raise the car or truck. I think ours went with my Dad when we sold the farm and he used it until he moved from that house to a retirement community.

    I didn't think farmers used spreaders anymore - it's good to see... the use of ground covers for the winter is a good idea - most farmers up this way cut the corn then leave the stalk stubs in place - your idea is better. I again have to say how clean you keep your barns - and your calves are very nice. Keep up the Good Work!!!

He wants to know when we can come to your farm 😂 keep up the videos! You do great! I'm thankful that my son loves to watch! Not only because it's agriculture but also because I dont have to worry about your language or anything being inappropriate! Good wholesome hard work and fun! God bless!

    I really like how the seedings turned out with the Esch Drill. Definitely seems to be better coverage. That Vortex machine seemed to have too much spacing even though there’s no rows. I can’t wait to see what it looks like in the spring before you chop. I’m curious to see the yields you get from the 3 different machines.
    Keep up the good work. Your dad looks like he’s getting around good. Prayer is the most we can do. Stay focused on Jesus! Jesus is Lord!

    Such a big difference between cattle , sheep and Horses . When i worked horse farms we came in took the horses out to pasture then we mucked the stalls , aired them out if need be then bed them back down get the hay for them and feed them up once we bring them inside . Also make sure they have water as well . Then we check on them during the day and we would feed pick and hay them . Next day start all over again .

    You should try sowing your cover crop and then spreading liquid manure on it, comes up a lot quicker and gets a good jumpstart before the weeds grown. Looks good though. That yellow drill looks really good.

    Instead of getting a new planter, how about a JD planter like the one you have but with closer rows? That seems is all you need for the cover crop. If you can use the esch (sp) drill for your other crops that may be better, but if not the esch may be too complex, which may need more repairs, maintenance, etc.
