Man sorry about your troubles, really sorry about losing your your dog.Your right usually stuff goes wrong in groups of 3,hopefully you have a great 2022 year.
Hang in there. Your problems did not come to stay - they came to pass. And they will. It'll be better and you have a great 2022. Farmers are resilient - we have to be with all that tends to come against us. But we persevere.
I had a neighbor ask me to brush hog a field. I told him to walk the entire 5 acres and clear all he found , then call me to do the job.If I hit or damaged anything that is extra cost to him. Well 10 minuets into the job tire puncture from a piece of survey steak into the rear tractor tire, one day loss and repair cost, the second day into the job the brush mower wrapped a 200’ downed chainlink fence around the blades. 2 hours of cutting out in the field Warhol hand cutters to get it working again then hooking the rest of the fence 10:04 to another tractor and pulling it out. This was to cost the owner 10$ per acre. Instead it cost him . 150$ for damage and extra time and trouble which he did not like. He got off cheap.
Sounds like you've had some rough luck my friend, hopefully it gets better. If you're interested, there's a NI cut-ditioner coming up for auction in Hillsboro this weekend.
Did you ever consider going to a New Holland Hay bine? We've ran thousands of acers thru our old 489. Slower then disk mowers but much cheaper to maintain...
I have considered it. Working a full time job I need all the time I can get. That's why I like disk mowers. I really want a discbine. Those cost more though.
I don't want to maintain a sickle although I will admit... When we cut hay with sickle bar I always thought the hay came out nicer. We only square baled back then.
Nice video. I’m sorry to hear about all this. It’s just the way things go through I guess sometimes. I wish you a happy new year and wish you nothing but good luck with farming this year. Have you done anything with the 706d?
That's what my guess is. I was going to put him down but I never did because he always came out of it. I'm glad I didn't the first time it happened. Got a few more years of enjoying him.
I farmed for an old boy who lived by the willy worms! He also would drive 5mph down the road swerving and weaving, stopping and going, to not run over a single willy worms!
Sorry to hear about your bad luck my friend... hang in there and count the blessings you have and cherish your memories... any luck with the 5row TR70 in the corn
Why would you bale that? Goldenrod, also called jimmyweed, is a native, perennial, multi-stemmed plant that is toxic to cattle, sheep, horses, and goats. Poisoning is most common in late fall and winter.
I'm not saying your wrong by any means but I am willing to bet there would have to be a certain concentration consumed in order to be harmful enough to see an effect. My sheep aren't dead, my neighbors horses aren't dead, and my cattle guys cows aren't dead. I wouldn't bale it if the weeds are that thick. Most times a field can look terrible and after you mow you can't see the weeds. If I'm raking and I can still visually see a bunch of weeds I won't bale it. When that happens I just take the loss and focus on the fact that they needed mowed anyway. Thanks for the comment.
Wife tells me all the time it looks bigger after I mow it 🤣 Hey has those milk bones always been part of your dogs diet or snacks ?? Their always getting recalled
@@wannabefarmer6056 yes I quit giving them to mine because of it . We have a couple good stores here in Chillicothe where I get just one certain food for mine
What the hell even eats that shit?
Animals that don't like snow as a main coarse.
Tell anyone who doesn’t like your hay it’s better then them eating air
Hope this is the first of many videos catching us up
Looking good Be safe buddy your buddy from NE

You ever tried spraying your hay fields in the fall to get rid of all the weeds?!
I have and I can't because of land owners. I wish I could trust me lol!

@@wannabefarmer6056 ok.😇

@@wannabefarmer6056 as long as you keep the knives and guards replaced as they wear out ours haven't been terrible..😏 And yes a clean cut!
So sorry for your loss. Very hard to lose a pet. A Dogs life span just isn't long enough. Sure can break your heart.
I'm really sorry about your dog. Sorry about your other shit situations too. Hopefully things turn around for you
Hope that black cloud blew away, you should write a country song about that summer!
You ain't kidding lol
Great to see you again, hope the problems stops now Shawn
Thanks Jan. I always enjoy seeing you comment.
Nice video. I’m sorry to hear about all this. It’s just the way things go through I guess sometimes. I wish you a happy new year and wish you nothing but good luck with farming this year. Have you done anything with the 706d?
Nothing yet. I have all the parts. Just waiting on the time to split it.
keep your chin up your going good
When are u going to show a video of u harvesting corn and soybeans can’t wait to see it
Currently editing... That's when I found this video saved away I never posted.
She does good! 👍
Sorry about your dog. Sounds like it had some neurological issue. Doubt it’s anything that a vet could have resolved.
That's what my guess is. I was going to put him down but I never did because he always came out of it. I'm glad I didn't the first time it happened. Got a few more years of enjoying him.

Lol I'm not that bad!
Sorry to hear about your bad luck my friend... hang in there and count the blessings you have and cherish your memories... any luck with the 5row TR70 in the corn
Yup editing now!
Sorry about your dog. What did you hit with your haybine?
A stump that was about 6 inches tall and 8 inches across.
Always something to deal with animals or equipment

😆 not always. Just every now and then. I stay away from the raw hide chews because I had a friend that lost a dog do to liver damage because of them.
@@wannabefarmer6056 yes I quit giving them to mine because of it . We have a couple good stores here in Chillicothe where I get just one certain food for mine
