I own a Oreo cow named Toast
Too cool...thx for watching.
Hi, can a sickle bar mower be used to cut tall stocky sorghum? I now use a hand held gas 2-cycle sickle bar cutter to cut stocky sorghum for fodder, so naturally I want to have it as a 3-pt implement for my Ford-8N. Your view piont would be helpful please?
Thank you for watching. We don't grow sorghum, so I can't say with certainty, but our sickle is pretty durable. Our bahia grass shoots can be extremely wirey, and they cut through them as long as we have sharp teeth.
What was the purpose of this video?! What is the name of the pre and post emergent chemicals?! What kind of soil amendments do you recommend? People are coming here looking for help.
Thank you for your question. I've answered that question in the earlier comments.
Grassfed beltie beef is very healthy.
Often ignored is the fact that the weight supported by the vehicle's bumper does not count toward the gross weight of the trailer. Normally a bumper-pulled trailer should have 10-15% tongue weight. In your example, your 1,000 pound trailer with a 6,000 pound load, if the load is properly distributed with, say, 10% tongue weight (700 pounds), the actual trailer gross weight across the scales would be 6,300 pounds, giving you considerable more useful load.
What is the purpose of buying a small utility trailer that can only hold 2 to 3 thousand pounds if you can just use your bed?
Thank you for your question. Trailers are all about user preference. With that being said, most utility trailers will haul much more than your GVWR of just your vehicle. Thus extending your maximum capacity.
Hurricanes don't have thunder.
Well, this one does.
@@polkadotfarms Well then it's a storm not a hurricane amadan.
Prayers for protection and safety 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!
I hope that ride is air-conditioned
Yes, it's got open cab AC.
How many people can fit ?
It will fit up to six.
@@polkadotfarms how many larger adults?
Engrossing RP 6 BS sold as Farm King perhaps
Thank you!
Manufacturer is Enorossi I hate autocorrect
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great song!
Thank you!
Are OrangeLine SU-35 utility trailers any good? Buying a Kubota zero-turn mower and the OrangeLine trailers can be added to the ZT mower Zero Percent financing...
I'm not familiar with that trailer, but I think you'll be okay if you follow the principles in the video.

Helpful information.
👌👏👏👏
You didn’t show how machine is pooping.
Ahhh...good poop!
Oddly satisfying
Right!
Why does it say Husqvarna reviews but your video has a Honda in it the whole time. Doesn’t make sense
I'm not sure I completely understand your question, but the tiller is a Husqvarna, and it is powered by a Honda motor. I hope this helps.
Hey there. Thanks for your video. We are two years in to having Belted Galloways on our little homestead & our experience is similar to yours. They are a great animal to breed. Great mothers with a good milk supply, easier breeding & calving than traditional breeds. They do really well on poor pastures & are winter hardy with their double coat. Their meat is naturally marbled on pasture. They do take about 6 to 8 month longer to grow out compared to commercial cattle. They are long lived, train easily to halter, remain gentle & are pleasing to the eye. All in all a great doer. 👍🏼🍻
Great breed, but be careful. They are little escape artist and will test your fences.
Good you had good results with that,had mine for 3 seasons,the handle broke close to the adjustment and the company no longer makes tillers or parts and could care less about customers .They got our money now you are on your own ,so good luck with it
I hate to hear yours gave you so much trouble.
I"m 77 years Old First became involved with Coastal Bermuda Hay when I was 12 years old, helping a neighbor Dairyman bale Hay.... So Now I am Helping My SON in his Year-round Hay operation......
you are using the work teeth, we use spring teeth any machinery dealer has them
Thank you!
Great video
Thank you for watching!
Spring tines are the way to go
I bought mind new to about 7 yrs ago have you bought any tines yet if you have let me know where you got them at mind Ben part for 2 yrs know
My tines are still original, I wish you luck with sourcing a new set!
It a great plow but you can't buy tines for it they don't make them and no aftermarket ones
We Raise Belted Galloways on our place RZL Farms in NE Iowa. Could not ask for better temperment and easy going. Can handle cold winters and rainiy seasons without issue. Feed Coversion is great they can graze pasture and rough ground and definitely gain weight. Downside is they take longer to top out in weight around 6 months longer. I'm happy with the breed and recommned to anyone starting out or wants a small herd on their property.
I love the breed, but they test every fence I've got.
We bought the 725cc7000series with 54 inch deck. Deck does not disperse the grass and clogs up.
I hate to hear that, I've not encountered any clogging yet.
I wondered about that. I was looking at one at Tractor Supply. But they don't have serviceable trans-axles, so I've held off.
Hi there, Really enjoyed your description of the Belties. They are a great breed of cattle for homesteading. Will have to watch some more of your videos. Thanks Rob. 🍻
Aaah natures lawnmower
Southeast? All the way up the Midwest, into Minnesota, I know for certain they're up there and have been *at least* since the 1960s. Last I heard, chiggers are advancing up the East Coastline, but as far as I know they haven't gotten into New England (yet).
Brings back childhood memories
Love this. You've got the zoomies.
Howdy, loving the vids! Just curious about how many head you’re running and about what size that corner paddock is? I’m in east tx as well (San Augustine county) and very eager to try this intensive grazing if my property will allow it.
@@polkadotfarms oh wow, yea I could def do some intensive grazing then. Most of ours are 10-30 acre pastures, very interesting. Thanks so much for the info. Y’all up towards Tyler?
If you have say 1000 pounds to tow, or 800 or whatever... my question is does it pull the same or differently if you are pulling the weight from behind instead of having it on the car's body itself? Is it better for the same amount of weight to be pulled instead of on the axle and body weight of the car itself?
Great job💪💪 what did you use to rake the hay? Was that wheel rake from earlier video? I'm asking because I've bought new baler recently and I have 4 wheel rake. 6 wheel rake looks more efficient, but since I have small pickup on a baler, I'm worried if 6 wheel rake makes bigger pile of hay - that would be hard to bale I think 🤔😊
Where are you located? I’m in Douglas Texas. Outside Nacogdoches NICHOLS TREE HAVEN
We're just a little north of Tyler State Park.
So precious I shared to my facebook page.
Aww! So cute! Thank you for saving them❤❤❤
He is handsome!
What is a wicking tub?
Great question. It's a potting tub with a built-in water reservoir. It allows the water to wick upwards from the reservoir to your plant roots. There are a lot of good diy videos if you choose to build one.
Thank you for this! I'm thinking of doing the milk jug thing for stratifying my poppies. But I don't drink milk, or anything else that comes in jugs. 😄 Seeing this, I'm thinking I could just use one of my big plastic pots, except the water part. Do you think I could just poke holes in the top of the plastic? Kinda like leaving the lid off the jug?
Also what USDA zone are you in?
I think it's worth a try. I've used one gallon bean cans with one end removed, and I drilled holes on the other end.
I'm in East Texas, zone 8B
"They keep us for our bodies. They consume our bodies, and our bodies become their bodies. Our bodies are sacred to them. Without our bodies, theirs would perish, and the endless wooden dish would not replenish. Think twice before stirring emotions, Josh, Kevin" -What the white cow was saying to the other cows when you showed up.
I think she said, "Hakuna Matata."
@@polkadotfarms That's ridiculous. Cows can only moo.
Can't you bring the mom and baby.into the barn.
