Aplogies for the delay- I just now saw this notification. I just looked at your channel, and really like your videos... such good narration and explanations of what were seeing. They are quite educational and I'd be happy to see what you do with a snippet of this video in one of your own, so you are welcome to it as long as proper credit is given a link to my video is provided in the description. My name is Peter Wells. Thank you for asking permission!

@@cheatinggravity173 Thanks for the compliment on my channel, Peter--and for a hearty laugh (because the movie I'd have used your footage in went up at the end of June). If only I had known how to wave at you and get your attention, right? Anyway, thanks for answering me--and for giving me permission. 😏

No arguments here. This is just showing what can be done with what i had- I didnt even have a proper video camera haha... One of these days I'll get a better video up, and make a proper effort- maybe post some instructional stuff also showing what not to do (this kinda did that but it wasn't explained in the video).

Several questions come to mind. Does she have sore teats? If so, why? If they're dry and cracking from cold dry weather, try some bag balm on them after each feeding (not before- that wouldnt be good for the kids) to soften them up. Does she have mastitis or other infection? Inspect the teats thrououghly to see if there are any bumps or sores on the teat or udder, treat that per your vets recommendation. (If it is mastitis, be mindful about touching the sores and then other things since it is a baterial infection and can spread). Is she a young or is this her first kid? If so then she may just be disiniterested or frustrated. Some does just arent very loving mothers. If any of these is the case, you'll have to tie her up or otherwise somehow restrain her (maybe a milking stanchion or chute) to physically keep her from walking away or fighting or kicking so that the kids may nurse. You may have to do this untill the new kids get strong enough to nurse without your assistance, even if she fights them. 3 times a day minimum. This could take a week or more, but when the kids get big and strong enough, she wont be able to stop them from nursing, plus she will be more inclined to let them nurse after she bonds with them better. Its very important for newborns to get all the nutrition their mothers can provide so they gain strength quickly. Especially the first 24 hours and first udder full of milk, since it contains colostrum which has the antibodies their mother has develpoed over her lifetime. Without that the kids won't thrive well.

New Holland did make them... a long long time ago, when they had no cab. Can't remember the model #. But in this case, the video is flipped. When I take video with my phone, it gives me the option to flip it so stuff doesn't look backwards. I didn't do that here. Funny, my friends from the west coast call bale wagons harrow beds. You must be from there.

I don't have a tach, so am not sure of the RPMs. I am running around in 2nd gear and low range in this vid, only shifting to high when the bales get a little thinner, and 3rd when just travelling. Once in a great while I'll have to shift to 1st gear, high range if the bales get super thick for a long while; otherwise I'll just clutch to get through a short thick spot.

@@cheatinggravity173 I usually run 2 high until the 4th and then to low to save the rear end. We are running in different parts of the country, that's for sure. I shoot for 15 minutes. It's irrigated ground.

Hey that's a pretty good time for filling up a load, not too far from what I'm doing. With 40" bales I assume they are the 16x18" bales? How many bales do you wind up with? I'd be curious to see how you tie. Have you taken any video?

On the 7 layer I do one tie with 6 bales between and then 9 bales regularly. We do 14 by 18 bales. I don’t think the stack we build would be as stable as what you do but we dump in a hay shed with end and side walls 6 stacks wide so not as nessecary to do as many ties.

+ffulkerth The video was flipped. Using my phone and forgot to reverse the image.

smcox1991 honestly that's pretty dam good speed for a pull type machine. Not only is the ground speed slower, but they are harder to run and the ergonomics aren't nearly as slick so I've got respect for anyone that can run one that fast.😎

cheating gravity Thanks. I don't even have all the controls in the cab I only have the bale chute but would like to put all the controls in the cab but that setup is a pretty good chunk of change. Funny thing is we're not even that far apart I'm in Durango just on the other side of the mountain from you.

I'm around 10 minutes a load with a 1033 p/t ruclips.net/video/37jqgwKwCP4/видео.html

Michael Rempel good job. That looks harder running the pull type. What part of the country is that?

smcox1991 Are you on highway 550 by chance? I used to live south of there during an 8 year hiatus from farming and would smile when I'd pass by the big fields of little bales.

jlsmith6310 Thanks for the compliment. Yes I've been doing it for 26 years. Got my first machine when I graduated high school. A fellow wagon operator used to have me help him on some of his bigger jobs. He was always faster than me, and told me the secret is to slow down to the point you don't make any mistakes. The speed will come with muscle memory if you have good technique. Making mistakes costs way more time than just going slow. A little off topic here, but I noticed a comment that is gone now, the guy thought the bales were staged since they were so close together- had a hard time believing the windrows were that thick. Well with 1st cutting grass and alfalfa, and 16' windrows doubled, the bales really do get that thick. It's readily apparent in the vid if you look out in the field at the bales not picked up yet. It was a very good field.

I used to put up 4000 bales a day with one when dad was doing 1000 acres alfalfa 4 cuttings a year out in washington.

@@Snowtruckdriver I miss those fields. All the big farmers around here have gone to big bales.

Rick Hicks you're absolutely right, I was trying to go too fast and not paying attention to the bales coming in my chute so it jammed it up a little bit.
