We are a third generation grain farm in northern Alberta. We raise 5 types of crops: barley, wheat, peas, oats and canola on 2500 acres. My wife and I work along side my mom and dad and involve our young children as much as possible. Follow along for our adventures.

John Deere 4440 SCV rebuild.
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.2 месяца назад
After attempting the first SCV with no luck I called John Deere for some advice and decide to take it in. The initial bill was over $2000 and I thought was totally out to lunch as you need about $400 in parts and a few hours labour. Armed with two days of research and 4 new valves I attempted the second SCV myself to see how long it would actually take and after 20-30 extra minutes trying to sm...

Bin building, tree planting, superb update and ROCKET LAUNCH 🚀
Oh no, not the bingo jacket! I agree with you. A little fix here and there can make a huge difference in your day.
I drove to Whitecourt the morning after the rain. There was 17 rolled over vehicles in the ditch after Valleyview. Crazy weather.
I also really hate buyers premiums. I feel like that’s a whole different level of extortion.
@@KirkFellFarm oh yeah, total garbage with the fees
I agree with you 100%
I’ve got 1 or 2 treasures from Ritchie Bros. I’ve also picked up enough junk to be apprehensive about bidding sight unseen.
@@KirkFellFarm but even to go unless a guy is pretty up on his stuff your just looking at physical appearance
@@millionairefarmer. ya pretty much checking to see if they even washed it before the sale.
Whats your budget on a skid steer? No where a couple of good ones are for sale central AB
@@darrenzimmer1251 my expectations are quite unrealistic
So I got some suggestions for you in your pursuit of purchasing a Skid Steer. Check with some of your neighbors, friends that may own one, I'd hope they could guide you with helpful advice prior to your potential purchase. As well check with some dealers in your local community, I'm sure you have some relationships with people who could give you some help things to look for. That said if you gotta risk over paying for potential junk at a auction, purchase one from a dealer, at least you got someone to go back to. Just my 2 cents, hope it helps you out
@@sparklingtones2472 I think we will most likely buy from a dealer
@millionairefarmer. not a horrible idea
My mill was so froze up I drug it over to my inlaws and put it in their shop over night.
Good day. That rink is pretty sweet. We used to shovel the dugout off when we were kids and ive done it a couple times here for the kids but watering cows everyday drops the ice too much and wrecks it.
@@jeremycherny2041 i like the lawn, if someone breaks through they are going down like 5 inches max
I really don't like any auctions either. Most of the auction co.s put several lines of equipment together at their yard to sell..... crowds are just too big for me. I really miss a good farm auction on location. The online stuff ticks me off worse, I'd have to be super interested to mess around with them either. I hope all is well for Jeremy, he hasn't posted a video in a long time.
I'm still alive! How's Adam?
I've been ok . Just finished shelling corn a week ago. It was like -20° here two days ago now its +3° . Have a Merry Christmas . If you don't post a video before then 😁
Sold all of my calves, no backgrounding this winter, so we are taking off for two weeks in February. First time I’ve ever gone somewhere warm in the winter. Down to Arizona to go quadding for two weeks. I’ve totally gone away from auctions. I hate this online stuff. Mostly kijiji and dealerships for me now.

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just get rid of it and hire a trucker
@@gordharasen2581 for hauling the grain to the elevator probably. But it’s nice having it for harvest hauling from the field to the farm
@ l never thought of that yes keep it just for that makes things much easier in the fall
We are getting the same weather
I a couple thoughts Robin. On filling the bins with ground grain , I would be afraid of it bridging up and clogging augers. I have a 2.5 ton feed bin and I have to modify the unload auger because my particle size on ground ear corn isn't right.... I forgot to change screens because its been years since I've put up ear corn. The other thought is, is it possible that one ot the John Deeres has a high torque starter and the other doesn't? That might be the difference.
That’s a good point about bridging there more to storing chop or rolled grains then a guy thinks. That why I haven’t done it yet
Coyotes.... Chickens... Ya need a couple bigger badder better braver dogs.. Maybe Put the chicken house by the dog house... And Corrie riding shotgun at 2 AM!
It's crazy how much snow you have. We had maybe 18 inches. Then it sat right down with the wind and rain. You can drive a pickup pretty well where ever you want.
It’s disappearing pretty fast
Them Butler bins don't like the snow load... Probably the worst brand of bin to get snow to slide off... Have lost 2 of them years ago to snow load. Ya may want to get a roof rake and a telehandler man bucket for the next dumping of 4 feet of the white stuff!!
I’m hoping it comes off with the warmth:
Hi Robin, what was the name of the foliar molasses product you tried on the grass? I am very interested to know how it will look next spring, if the product will help the grass grow taller, and healthier than the surrounding grass. I have read healthy plants with high BRIX (sugar index) can deter pests like flea beetles in Canola. Would be interesting to try! When you wrote your name on the grass, did you use concentrated or diluted product? Thanks
It has no name yet, it was something we had made for us. The stuff I put on the lawn was mixed with water.
The weld may not be perfect, but the POV was. :)
Thanks for posting; enjoyed the episode.
That thumbnail... Put a candy cane for yhe exhaust, some reindeer and you fot Santa's sleigh
Wow, you guys are getting really greedy down there for snow. With last nights snow, we might have had 10” in all now.
Once shes shined up from running grain through she will be a good tool for the tool box. Such a better way of breaking or "rolling" feed . Just cracks is so nice
Hey what’s with the half tote on the back of the water trailer? Can a guy get half loads of molasses now, or is that tank 1 of 1?
@@KirkFellFarm that’s an ex chemical tote. They are around
@@millionairefarmer. interesting, I have never seen one of those before.
Is that a filter system I see on your waterline? Do you get lots of sediment off your well?
That filter is mostly for the old well. We would get a few chunks plugging up the facet every once in a while. Not as bad with the new well.
Morning Robin...don't know why I'm not getting notifications on your vids but I got to see this one
@@bcpfarmandtrucking6560 it’s strange, I seem to only get farming4g updates and the gentleman farmer. Every other person it’s hit or miss.
No wells here, so I'm learning watching this.
Repetitive chores like pushing snow around works on these channels; show the beginning, middle and end result = happy viewers. Some talking about it while going to do it, and talking about what was done is good too - but just as extra story framing - which the human brain can't get enough of - but the story is the actual doing of the thing - story in images. Should make lots of content and double the length of the video with very little editing. I know you don't have a camera stand. Perhaps a magnet stand? One of those with pipe-cleaner style bendable holds? A head mount miners' style? :)
Buddy on a bull dozer mounts his camera over his left shoulder so you can see as much of the field (that he's windrowing for example) as possible. About 7 repeated actions is the limit for the earthing brain, then go to a different angle of the next set of repetitions. People like 'repetitive chaos' (the chaos is the dirt/snow rolling over; the repetitive frame - the 'tension' to the chaos - is the next windrow line). Hope that's helpful. A forest for the trees thing. Enjoy your content. Cheers.
I ran a waterline down into my well that the electrical runs through to run my submersible pump. Tired of wires rubbing through.
You guys have been greedy on snow south of the river. Maybe 6” here, haven’t even pushed snow yet.
He has a lot more then me it appears
You got some snow. Thanks for taking my share, we have none down here in southern Ontario.
This is the typical "Climate Change in the Peace Country.." -25C to -45C and much snow that stays can be quite common on days November through March... And it's why most everyone here puts a check mark each morning beside "WARMER"... the... "chart"... would you like it warmer or colder today! But we still have to pay the elsewhere voted for it..."Climate Change Tax" while our fingers get cold at the pumps... -22C right now and close to noon!!
Did you remember to open the flue

@millionairefarmer. I'm just getting my ac ready to go. I'm in Tasmania Australia. Right now
Really? I figured you would have it going sooner.

I’ve changed out 4 in the 17 years we’ve lived in this house now. Fricking stupid junk. I’d pay dang quadruple if they’d build one to last 10 years.

I’ve got a planetary in at Kubota right now off of my older Kubota. Wheel bearings went, hopefully it didn’t wreck the housing this time like the other side. That housing adds $3500 to the bill if it chewed out. Fun.
@chadtosh6831 and that's why you need 3 tractors hey. At anytime a second one could be down for days too.
@@jeremycherny2041yep, pretty much. Gotta keep these poor dealerships in business too. 🙄🤷♂️
Good evening Robin 🥃🥃🥃👍
@@chadtosh6831 how’s Chad this evening?
@@millionairefarmer.just fighting along like you are. Lol. Everything wants a fixing around here it seems.
Hoofta. Neighbor calls me. My versatile tractor is crunching. Come give me your opinion. I went. Planetary is screwed sounds like. Do you have time to pull it apart. Not today. So he pulled it apart. Over 10000 in parts he needs. And that's used and 2700 labor if the dealer puts it together for him. No new parts are available anymore.
@@jeremycherny2041 wow that’s not good.
If it’s an older versatile it probably isn’t worth a lot more than that planetary. That sucks.
@chadtosh6831 846. Yeah it ain't worth much. He said he was going to sell it for scrap. I said how much? Now he's fixing it lol.
@@chadtosh6831 Hmm... One of mine has been on the farm since new for 40 years with the first 2 winters also in the Bush ... Been a very good tractor... Very easy and cheap to fix... Probably best tractor I have ever owned never touched the engine but finally had to do a getting a bit weak clutch about 4 years ago.. Go good I bought another same vintage 3 1/2 years ago!! .....Was it out of low on oil?? Son broke a axle tube rough snow ridge dozin snow easy fix.. Planetary not that complicated $2700?? wheels/tires and its right there!
