This Machine Is A Beast!!
Today we took the John Deere 4720 and woods 720 brush hog out and did some brush hogging. We did a little testing to see an example of the power this machine has as well. This is an almost perfect setup for brush hogging.

Today we put our new setup to the test. We have recently built a headlock system with a corral, and today we tested it, and found it works great. We tagged several calves, and then separated several cows.
Solving Problems - One at a time

Today we took the mini hoe out to clean a ditch along the side of a drive we use to haul hay. This drive is usually extremely wet, so this ditch will be a huge improvement.
Years of Manure Cleaned Out (satisfying)
Просмотров 202Месяц назад
Today we got to work cleaning out several years of build up in our chicken coop. The cycle we use to clean out our coop is to remove some manure several times a year, and to add fresh shavings at this time. However once in a while we do a full clean out, including sweeping out the coop.
2 Guys 50 bales: John Deere 4720
Просмотров 532Месяц назад
In this video we use the John Deere 4720 to haul round hay bales. Stated in the beginning of the video we were going to haul about 25 bales, though this number was closer to 50 after counting. These hay bales are 4ft by 4ft, and the JD 4720 handles them very well. We have one spear on the front, and one spear on the back. My dad also used the John Deere 5625 to haul bales alongside me. We haule...
Solution To Round Baling On Hills
Просмотров 728Месяц назад
We used our John Deere 5625 tractor with our John Deere 335 baler, to bale our hay on the farm. though on our farm it is really hilly, and we had to use our Deere 320D skid loader to stop the bales from rolling down the hill. When using the loader, we were able to speed up the process of baling, because the baler could drop bales wherever they were done.

In this video we teddered our mowed hay with the John Deere 4720. We did this in an effort for the hay to dry to the correct level, and not mold. We hope that you enjoy, and learn something new, while you watch our video.
1953 Ferguson TO-30 Raking Hay
Просмотров 6 тыс.2 месяца назад
On the Echo Valley Homestead, the Ferguson TO-30, is in retirement a majority of the time, though when it comes to haying season, it plays a vital role. We use the Ferguson TO-30 to rake with a New Holland Rolabar 256 rake. In 1974, my grandpa bought a neighboring farm, and the TO-30 came along with the farm. This is one of the few jobs the tractor is put to the task of on our homestead.

We got to work cleaning a ditch with our mini hoe. These video shots capture the shear power of this machine, ripping through the brush and dirt.
Is the Haybine Era Over?

We mowed our first cutting of hay for the 2024 season with the New Holland Haybine. Along the way, we encountered a lot of clogging, and ended up renting a discbine, to help with our thickest field.

so wonderful beautiful video my best friend i love it see so nice
Thanks for sharing, we are just starting our journey!! 🙏🏻🙌 added some more cows this weekend
@@AlgiereRanch that’s great!
@@echovalleyhomestead How long you been running cows?
@AlgiereRanch we have had cows on the farm for probably 50 years
Jacob, you can definitely throw a couple of those cantaloupes my way they are my favorites lol 😂. Thanks for sharing your animals you sure take good care of them 👍🏻. From Kentucky.
@@scottshaver5495 thanks for reaching out Scott! I’m sure the pig would share a few with you 😂
Are these full size Herefords or traditional sized?? At first I thought they were minis
These are full sized I believe, thanks for checking 👍
The pin portion of that latch may rotate if pressure placed on the inside of the gate. moving it up or down so the two bolts straddle the horizontal tubing will prevent that . Or drill and put a self tapping screw in the hole as a "set screw"
@@drgoatdoc yes this is a very good idea, and actually, a few weeks ago, we had a latch slide a little when a cow ran into the gate full speed, but we just turned it back and then put the set screw in. Thanks for the feedback
Jacob, that’s a really nice set up to handle your cattle, that head gate really makes it nice 👍🏻. You definitely have a great looking heard. I do believe Mr piggy 🐖 is the king of the barnyard lol 😂. Thanks Jacob for sharing another nice video, have a great week. God bless you, from Kentucky.
@@scottshaver5495 thanks again for reaching out!
Jacob, you did a great job operating that machine 👍🏻opening that ditch up to that culvert definitely a great idea. Jacob I’m glad u have cabs on your tractors, that sun can be brutal. Jacob thanks for another nice video. May God watch over you and keep you safe. From Kentucky.
@@scottshaver5495 thank you so much!!
Jacob, really nice tractors, it’s definitely a blessing to see father and son working together 👍🏻. Have a great weekend. From Kentucky.
@@scottshaver5495 thanks!
@@scottshaver5495 thanks! we do make a great team 😊
Jacob, you definitely bought back memories, when I was your age back in the 1960s, cleaning out the chicken houses was my job, we would take the chicken manure and put it on are tobacco beds to help the plants grow, and it definitely did, we raised tobacco for many years and milk cows, I sure do miss it. Jacob you have a nice group of animals, and a really nice and clean farm. Thanks Jacob for another great video. From Kentucky .
@@scottshaver5495 thank you for the feedback, those sound like really nice memories for sure!
Jacob, really enjoyed watching your video, your camera work was great 👍🏻. You are definitely getting a good supply of hay. Jacob u know nothing runs like a deer, and u have a great day too. From Kentucky 🐎.
@@scottshaver5495 thank you! It is great to hear good feedback! Have a great day aswell!
Awesome! I have a 1954 tea20 ferguson for doing jobs around my property. Love it! Reliable! Great Tractors.
@@LinksviewAcresVlogs thanks!
I learned how use a clutch & drive on a TO-30 Ferguson tractor in the mid 60s, cuttin, raking, & bringing the hay to the barn- on my grandfathers century farm. Watchin you drive the 30 Ferguson , brings back good memories. Thanks for the watch
Thanks for sharing!
Jacob, those hay teddering machines are really nice to have, they definitely make the hay dry out really nice. Thank you for sharing your day it was a really nice video 👍🏻. From Kentucky.
@@scottshaver5495 thank you! They are incredibly nice!
Crap
That’s a really nice Ferguson, my first tractor was a 1953 ford jubilee, the 1950s was definitely great years for tractors. Massey Ferguson is what I have now, with the Perkins diesel. Thank you for sharing your video, I enjoyed watching and you did a great job filming. From Kentucky.
Very cool! Thank you for the feedback!
meow
Boy you better be trying to get that hay back feed it to the junkies they ain’t got no Doug’s right now and do t make him go to the creek because you know he ain’t got no poop tubs in his round head 😅🫶🚽
Your my favorite learn to video guy.
Thank you!
duh
That was very clear to see where they would be heading 😂
jasus... keep your hands away from those link arms when it's moving... you will lose fingers or a hand.. I've seen too many personal horrific injuries already. the first was 51 years ago when i was six and was in hospital myself due to a car collision.. in the bed across the way was a two year old baby boy (who'd fallen off a tractor) with stitches going right from the front to the back of his head in a big curve.. that was a fair warning to me then to be careful around farm machinery.... and i've heard all the excuses too... like: 'Ah, I'll be alright I know what I'm doing'... those machines can go wrong very fast believe me... great video, stay safe.. brilliant tractor too, we used to have the TVO version...
Trabalhei com um desse numa fazenda do estado do Paraná
Very interesting of which country is that

Thank you 😁
Nice video, very educational.
Thank you 😊
👍👍
😀😄😆👏💜🧡💛
Well done on the video 👏
Thank you!!
Savage!
Where do they go in the summer when it's 100°. That must be agony for pupper
He gets a hair cut and groom in the summer 😊
WHY outside????😢
Probably a farm dog that protects other animals. You noticed how thick the dog coat is? Dog look comfy not shivering or anything. Some dogs are perfect for the cold like this one.

Apples
Sliced orange or a grapefruit

Great guess!! 🎉
Ngl you kinda look like Georgie from Young Sheldon 😳. In a very EXTREMELY good way😍
It's cruel
Fat cats exercise.
Give them time. Let them know your excited about what they are doing❤
That’s kind of sad don’t just feed them cat food always let them be outside cats😮
You are stunning
That’s why you don’t feed them very day cat food. They lose their instincts to hunt for their food
I agree about the cstfood thing. But dude look at their legs it's too short to get any speed and reacg
Chickens: let’s sacrifice 2 and hide 10 😂
U might wanna leave those alone if ur rusters r in the same coop
Are you sure you have enough ditch there for water to get away?
Yes, considering the slope of the hill, plus the small drain ditch I dug, I expect the water can drain properly now.
Make sure to put rocks in front of the exit of that or else it’ll cause a lot of erosion
Thank you for mentioning this, after the video was taken, we had added more stones around the pipe, and hopefully this will help avoid erosion
Awe shit
