@@deweysanders1461 no our grinder does not make it into pellets. I think making into pellets would only benefit in flowability in the bin.

@@e.a.bfarms right!?!? It's on my short list for power toys. 👍😉

@@ohrmundtsimmentals Can't go wrong with milwaukee, I try to add a piece every month or two.

@@e.a.bfarms yeah that's why I went with the grinder and won't get rid of my old Milwaukee stuff.

@@laurasense4163 thanks! Yeah they were indeed happy. 😊😄

Do you take fats to market or sell them for butcher beef

@@randythomas6055 we sell them for butcher to local customers.

@@mrgray3608 Yes there is. Lol

@@francismcinnis5995 thank you!

@@e.a.bfarms yeah we like to make 2nd more in that 54ish size because they are more dense and sometimes we have to unroll them by hand in the barn.

@@ohrmundtsimmentals So if you were to get a new baler you guys would probably stick to a 4x5 and under or would you bale 4x6s? I try to make everything I'm gonna feed 6 footers as it's so many less bales to feed out.

@@e.a.bfarms I'd like to find a 4x6 so at least our 1st could be 6' and 2nds could still be smaller. Our loader tractor probably couldn't handle super dense 4x6 on a regular basis. 🤷🤦

@@e.a.bfarms lol... I know I'm pretty boring. 🤦🤣

@ohrmundtsimmentals Hey, it was another 320 bale day so I didn't have much focus left. . . Lol.

@@e.a.bfarms oh I bet. That's cranking them out! 👍👍

@@badger1132 thanks! We were cutting a 2nd crop mix of alfalfa, orchard, ryegrass and white clover.

@@janetlutter9925 oh we're getting it done. Today Dad is baling the very last grass. Long term forecast calls for above average temps. So it will come back decent before it freezes off.

I don't think so, but maybe by accident. lol.... I probably earned the comment. HAHAHA

@@nebraskafarmer9015 This year I have been using the Nutrea Beef All Purpose mineral from tractor supply. During the summer using the flu control version. Also using a trace mineral with it for extra salt. My mineral feeder is just an old lick tub set into a truck tire. Works pretty good and it's cheap.

@@ohrmundtsimmentals I use lick tubs set in a truck tire as well! I got tired of the tubs blowing all over the pasture so I put them into the truck tire. The nice thing about that set up is I have a lot of tubs and a lot of tires, so I don't move feeders around anymore. I can put out mineral feeders everywhere and I don't have to pick them up in the fall. 😄 I also use fly control mineral. Funny thing is, I'm not really sure it's working, but while they have a lot of flies on them, they aren't fighting them.

@@nebraskafarmer9015 lol I think everyone thinks that about their fly mineral. It like flies we're ok early summer then exploded in late summer.

@@laurasense4163 thanks! Happy birthday to you too!

@@anneryan9157 Thank you!

@@joeyhoosiercanine9120 thanks! Yeah not afraid to feed hay but try to keep it at a minimum.

@@timflick2147 we have grazed hay fields in later September when the grasses start going dormant. We just try to leave plenty of stubble.

@@badger1132 Yup, exactly. Our hay is typically a mix of orchard, rye and blue grass, Timothy and red/white clover. Sometimes a little alfalfa.

@@bradmartin3112 we get some. It's more about the breeding. Chrome on chrome will give you anywhere from a a small blaze to almost spotted. Mostly just variations of a blaze.

@@joshhorvat8247 oh definitely, even just the simple atv one. 👍

@ohrmundtsimmentals I went with a 3 pint one, as I wasnt sure how well the atv one would work during the winter. I watched George heller pulling an atv one with a skidsteer in the winter. Didn't look like a lot of fun to me.

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn it's part of their fault ration from weaning until they leave at about 18-20 months old. The mix isn't super rich because of the cob so they still grow a little slower.

@@e.a.bfarms it's looking decent. We might chop the field we were to pick because it's a bit bigger and the cobs look a little smaller than the other field. We are probably going to pull the chopper out next weekend and start looking that over. 😉

@@ohrmundtsimmentals Gonna be chopping time before we know it!

@@e.a.bfarms yup yup👍😊

Hey how do you sell your heifer calves

@@lukeromberger9659 usually what I'll do is put a couple posts on different FB groups to see if anyone wants any heifers for replacements. If nobody wants any or what's left we just take them to the local sale barn. We did keep 1 heifer back from last year that we are fattening, as kind of an experiment.

@@mihandsplitters705 😂😂👍👍

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn That's what we thought too. The PTO clutch or the slip clutch that was on that shaft. 🤷

@@e.a.bfarms we are almost done getting it back together. We would finish it today but it's pouring out. 🤦😆

@@e.a.bfarms lol it sure would. You send one over and you'll be the first to see it. 😆😁

@@ohrmundtsimmentals Just got numbers back, $119,900 without accumulator. . .RUclips better start paying better. . Hahaha

@@e.a.bfarms 😳😳 no kidding. Would just like to afford a good used baler. 🤦😆

@@jermainewyatt1995 thanks! I'm glad you like the videos! 😁

@@ohrmundtsimmentals ur welcome

When do you wean the calves?

@@owenpiggott2640 We will start looking to wean calves in mid to late September.

@@timpingel9607 oh yeah the volume at least has been there. 👍

@@mihandsplitters705 we thought about doing that if we couldn't find something close. It seems to work pretty good.

@@fnafaututorials thank you!

@@e.a.bfarms we have right about 40 acres of pasture and we're probably right at max stocking rate. That's why I keep telling Dad they need to go to the back pasture. We usually end up feeding a dozen baled during summer to stretch it out.

@@joshhorvat8247 I size the paddock for an every other day move. This year being that it has been so wet, I've made them a little bit bigger than a normal year.

@@e.a.bfarms lol yup 😆

@@tim7409 there are different capacity size darts. I have a 3,5,7&10cc size darts. I think for one of my treatments I put 4cc in a 5cc dart.

@@whiteface5055 that was last big rain event. It's started slowing down now. The rest of the rotations get better. Thankfully!

@@mihandsplitters705 nice! I've kicked around the idea of trying millets for this or to fill in weak hay/pastures. Maybe I'll still try it this summer. 👍👍

@@Rollinghillsfarmsmn our cows are getting a little fussy too. It's gonna be some quick rotating the next couple rounds with the way things look. We'll be in though. 🤞😆

@@janetlutter9925 yeah it's hard to rotate with this much water. I've actually been giving them larger chunks than I normally this year On about 20 acres of pasture that in front of them and behind them has standing water. 🙄

@@dianebills5433 I wish I could!

@@e.a.bfarms oh nice, good to know. Sometimes you don't know where the seed comes from when it comes from the mill. Yeah they seem to have like 3or4 bags when we go to the store. It would be nice to get enough at a time to get the discount though.

@ohrmundtsimmentals Yeah, we buy a pallet at a time. . .I just got to remember to order it well before you are out. . .

@@e.a.bfarms at least it seems like decent stuff for a decent price.

@@timflick2147 yeah the 648 is a nice baler. Very similar to ours. I'd like to find a 7070 possibly. Looking at John Deere balers too.
