I learned that you must not let the pig think for it's self. I seen that you presses then at loading so the pig can't think. I just love these videos granny.
I was already a loyal viewer, but..... When Sawyer gave a shoutout to Jersey Mike's, that really sealed the deal for me. I haven't had Subway in almost 5 years, and Jimmy John's is a very distant 2nd. Good choice young man.
We raised and showed pigs for ten years, we always trained our pigs to load months before we would go to the shows, but you always tell when you got to a show of the pigs that had never been loaded before. Always a fun time loading pigs!!! Stay in it fellas
Sorry 😞, had to smile when all hell broke lose!! 300+ pounds of pure muscle 💪 going hell bent south when you want them to go north. Yes I have been ran over,stepped on and beat up more then a few times loading hogs!!Great you show it all. Thanks 😊.
Glad to see the crops are coming up after the late start. How's the sweet corn looking!! LOL! Pigs looked good! Can't wait to see the next group of bacon seeds arrive! They are so cute!
Tork Timeout=go drive the 🚜 in circles until you're done being pissed off. Always said, "You've never experienced true anger or frustration until you've loaded hogs when its hot."
I worked on a pig farm years ago. All I remember is the smell seemed to get in my pores. No matter how long of a shower I took it never seemed to leave me.
Im a big fan of your videos🤘🏽👍🏽 amazing to see all the hard work that goes into taking care of the animals making sure everything goes smooth i myself work at Quality Pork Processors in Austin MN
Very good video, I would like to know the floors that are used, what material it is made of and if they are assembleable like the slat floors that are used in the maternity .
kinda sucks that the trade show part isn’t the same time as the show expo in iowa. i was up there showing after the trade show hopped to see you guys around there
Please show us the processing plant. When do the pigs know that they their going to have a bad day? I like bacon and I love the channel . I just want more details on the pigs. What do they eat? Where are do you keep sows: do you own the sows? How long from start to bacon?
Great channel and videos. More people need to see stuff like this. Fewer and fewer people realize where their food comes from these days. I am a fellow livestock producer ,but on a much smaller scale. I am curious as to what percentage of loss you have from getting piglets to the time they go back on the truck???? On this video you had a boar, assuming got missed by the producer. Does that kind of thing happen very often???? Love your videos. Sean
155 hogs on a truck seems low to me. Up here in Manitoba, Ca, I load 180 on an average day.. I also use a rattle cup instead of an electric prod. I do have that as a back up for stupid pigs. Love the content. 2 thumbs up from this pig farmer.
@@thislldofarm this was about 15 years ago last time I loaded hogs but they were typically 225lbs per. We'd get 18 on the nose up top and below, 7 in the narrow doghouse. 15 on the back, 35 per in the middle sections upper and lower deck. If we ran the middle rails we could squeeze more on. We would load out of Manitoba, cross the US border and take one stop at Joliette then drive straight to Sioux City, Iowa. ✌️
@@thislldofarm I keep them until week 15. Easily over 250. @ the plant, I average about 225 lbs dress weight. The trailers are 3 levels. A belly, middle and top.
Great content ! Love barn talk have couple questions that can be answers hear our there our both. As farmers we take pride in everything we do and that even includes the things we eat as a pork producers what is your favorite go to brand and flavor of bacon what company do U support and why if any reason ? Question number 2 I’m from tennessee we are cattle producers and poultry. was wondering if the are any commercial poultry grower houses in your area. The are no commercial swine operations around hear.
I noticed you ran the pigs through a "U" in the last pen before going through the door. Don't pigs like to go down an aisle directly through a door or is that so you can sort down to the count you need? I am thinking your dad walked away with some bruises from the reni gating pig.
That's the old way of doing things. ALL our pigs are micro chipped, robots direct ready hogs during the night to isle ways, one way gates makes sure the hogs can't return, they make their way to the loading area on their own. no humans chase and shock the hogs. Conveyer floor and loading shoot makes loading into trucks easy.
You guys go through a lot but that looks absolutely delicious i’m a cattle guy But I prefer pork wow I’m hungry now. Muslims and Jews don’t know what they’re missing
When I read the title I thought it was about the local buffet. I was a teen when I raised a few pigs and made good money on them.Just like a gambler I went all in and raised 100 feeder at $3 each.This was back when the minimum wage was $1 per hour. When they were approaching 180#s I started getting a shipper lined up to take them to slaughter. I called the auction house which was about 100 miles or so from our farm.I was told that the price was $.05 a #. I couldn't believe it as it was $.50 only 3 months past. Luckily I was feeding grain and hay from our farm so I called around and gave 10 away and shot the rest and planted them in the fields to get some good crop return. Pigs aren't like cattle or sheep which can be held for months if the prices aren't good at the time.When pigs get to the size of slaughter you have to move them or they just get fatter and less valuable.Pigs are high maintenance too and with hot wire security fence and water pumping and moving them every week to clear out the feed lot I was just about breaking even at $100 per pig. Broke that pig habit quick.Gamblers take note:the house always wins.
@@thislldofarm I’ve been run over a few times when they didn’t stop at the sort board. Enjoy your videos and seeing the advances in technology since I built my barn in 1998.
Time to bill a "Language Barrier Fee" to the buyer. $1000.00 per load ought to cover hiring and insuring an interpreter or Spanglish instructor. Only if you're doing business in a foreign country should you have to concern yourself with learning their language.
I’m a truck driver. I’ve had farmers bitch at me because the door wasn’t open when they brought the last group up and I’ve had farmers bitch when hogs come out. Your old man yelled at guy pretty good kinda uncalled for! Some mornings drivers can’t please everyone!
We told him before the load started that he was backed up way too tight and wouldn’t be able to get his rope up and down very easily because of dock pads. He didn’t pull up at all and then when he opened the door for the last hole he couldn’t get it back down because it was too tight against dock pads. That’s why dad wasn’t happy.
Pigs are very intelligent and sensitive animals, they're not especially keen on being penned and slaughtered, can you tell? If you think the loading was a disaster for you, Dude, think about how the pigs feel. Like the men in the John Ford Cavalry film said about the prospect of herding and slaughtering buffalo, "No Sir! Beans is safer!"
The Trucker works for you hauling your Hogs why shouldn’t he have to learn English instead of you saying you need to learn Spanish??? I think when they come to our country they need to learn English not us learn their language 🤷🏻♂️
That was a ... mouthful of working words!

Appreciate everything y'all do.
Thanks for the video!!! Hope you have a good trip. Sorry had a bad time loading.
Thanks for watching James! It's all part of it the rest of the loads went pretty good.
Sorry 😞, had to smile when all hell broke lose!! 300+ pounds of pure muscle 💪 going hell bent south when you want them to go north. Yes I have been ran over,stepped on and beat up more then a few times loading hogs!!Great you show it all. Thanks 😊.
Those hogs are in nice shape. Keep up the good work guys. Very nice operation
When moving hogs some times they go good most of the time it is just very hard work !
Glad to see the crops are coming up after the late start. How's the sweet corn looking!! LOL! Pigs looked good! Can't wait to see the next group of bacon seeds arrive! They are so cute!
Good looking hogs
Nice video thank you

Glad your ok
I worked on a pig farm years ago. All I remember is the smell seemed to get in my pores. No matter how long of a shower I took it never seemed to leave me.
The key is to use steaming hot water and you’ll never smell.
Great content u guys. Those frustrating times make for some entertaining content lol 😆 thanks
Thanks for watching Michel! They might not be fun in the moment but sure are funny to look back at for memories sake!
great content as usual buddy, enjoy the time at the show,thanks and greetings from a Dutch dairyfarmer
I agree Jersey Mikes is the best the 13 is my favorite too. What happened to the boar hog you held back why did you hold him back?
Have a fantastic trip. Hope you get you rain exactly when you need it so your yields be through the roof!! Enjoy your channel very much!

I love what you guys do really; hay I want to know the type of irrigation system you use on your farm, thanks,
Love it ! Make MO Bacon!😁
Hogs still have their heads on the wrong end when you have to load them 🙂
are we having fun yet.
What do you do with the bore you pulled out?
There's my semi. I've waiting for it to be on here.
Congrats are you driving Mack am l right
Original Italian Mike's Way with extra onion and lettuce and PRAISE God they have a Gluten Free bun so I can actually eat it! I love Jersey Mikes!
I'm not a big fan of Mike's Way. Too much oil. Otherwise, rosemary parmesean cures any aches and pains.
What you think about buying a sow farm with 2000 on it are would you build new barn like your doing

What did y’all do with the boar pig
He will go on a cull load. Probably bound for the pepperoni factory 😂😂😂
as a former livestock hauler, i know the pain with the porkers
I don’t miss loading hogs!!!!!
Where’s a good size Billy club when you need one. Pigs are tough as hell it probably won’t even hurt on that bad if he just whacked the pig.
Do you not normally have bores?

Don't know if there's ever a good day loading hogs. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.
When it's 20 minutes a load that's when you know it's a good day of loading pigs haha! Thanks for the continued support David!
There's some weight and power in a grump pig. Lucky it didn't flatten you.
That's the old way of doing things.

Be careful of your “junk”getting pinched in those folding gates. That makes a bad day loading hogs worse
