Always fascinating to hear how Jim communicating with the horses, they listen better than most humans.
You must be a very proud father mister, seeing your daughter driving those horses and giving you a helping hand !
Wonderful videos they bring me back to how we farmed when I was a young kid , thank you so much for posting them .
I love the way Jim handles those horses. The best I've ever seen by far! I'm so happy that I stumbled across your RUclips channel! Keep up the good work!
I would love to learn how to drive a team of horses. That's true farming.
Great to see this, the last field I planted, with an old hand seeder. You wear it around your neck and it will hold a 1/3rd of a bag of seed or so. It is canvass or a heavy cotton canvass bag. You crank a hand leaver and a spinner throws the seat out in front of you as you walk. I don't know how the old timers did it, but I had my niece walk with me and tell me when the seed was hitting her legs , ankles , and I knew how far the seed was then throwing and I could gage calibrate myself so she could then walk home and I finished seeding the field. The seed so small I could barely see it flying out and it goes further than you can see. Anyways , nice video, Trudy did a great job with those 3 horses, 3rd grade..such an influential year, it surely was for me, Mrs. Tex was a calm loving Woman and one of my favorate Teachers, she was the one that broke my extreme intravertedness. (Shyness,, Great woman, as I am sure Trudy is too, , as the Apple, falls close to the tree.)
Thank God for Godly Teachers..
Beautiful Field, beautiful work.. The cultipactor is very critical also to set that seed and provide the moisture wicking from the soil to germinate. Never forget that sound of those old style cultipactors.
I think ours was 3 shorter sections offset, I forget, or am forgetting.. but simular to yours, sounded the same,, ah ha, thanks..
John.
Im 62 years old so great to see the old ways think i was 16 years old befor i ever ate anything out of the grocery store lol the only thing that wasent under garden was the house pig pen and mule lot thank u for sharing
New sub. So neat to see farm done old fashion was. 🤙🤙🇬🇺
Makes me feel nostalgic, we just sold the family farm in Kansas that we had since 1870....
That is a long time for a farm to be in the family, hope all is well with you. Thanks for watching
Thanks for the ride. You have caused me to regret selling my last team . Your horses are very well trained and behave well probably because you are using them regularly .
you probably already know that i have always liked horses i've seen many horses on this the computer and i still have YOU as my favorite- congratulations you still do a good job
Just love your wife's chatter lovely girl you got there love ya horses On borrowed time now so thank you for these videos great stuff. Worked with horses back in the 40s and 50s..Here in the United Kingdom . You stay save and well in these not so nice tomes with lock down.
John Trevor thank you for your kind words! We are so glad we could give you some enjoyment with these videos. And we wish the best to you! Enjoy each day and stay safe.
Thats really nice to get and see your daughter out enjoying alittle horse time. She looks like shes great with the horses. They all looked really clam. Now gota get your wife out in the field work.
Ronald Feuerstein oh she can and will
We did exactly what you do but we used an little ford tractor. We had an JD seeder. We baled our oats just before they came to a head. took along time to dry out. And they were heavy bales. Cows loved them like eating ice cream.
I love the way of Farming
Always perfect
I really enjoy watching all aspects of working a farm. While I have owned riding horses, the fact that you farm with horses, is icing on the cake. I so enjoy the forestry vids also. It amazes me how much weight your horses can haul.
Thank you for the effort in making the videos.
David,. Akron Ohio
Glad you’re enjoying the videos David, thanks for watching!
I just started watch nd I see that I like you folks -dad seems like a really nice guy (good man) hoping you more-i'll just keep on watching
I enjoyed this video and found it so interesting.I am a N.Y.City gal who had to move to Florida 17 years ago due to my husbands poor health.I have always admired farmers and have much respect for all their hard work.Thank you for sharing these videos with us.
Thanks for sharing!!
I like the roofs that are on the silos, not many like that left around the country any more.. I was drilling oats with horses way back in 1962,, one horse named Charlie and the other was a blind mare named Betty, great horses that were on a beer team in upstate NY once, Betty didn't look so pretty being blind so we got the team, anyway I was filling the hoppers and all the sudden the horses took off, the next time I saw them, they were standing in front of their stalls and the old Ontario grain drill was stopped at the door being to wide for the door, I was a long time living that down..
old dave I know what you mean, I’ve had a few runaways I would rather not talk about.
Good job i love to watching you and your horses work keep up the good work
Subscriber #600 from Los Angeles. Enjoying your videos very much. Looking forward to see more content. Thank you for sharing a part of your daily life.
I love all of your horses.
Thanks
very informative ! good explaining each operation.
I really enjoy watching your videos. Love watching you communicate with the horses. I teach in the Equine Studies Program at Ohio University so it's especially nice to see the partnership you have with these beautiful animals. Good luck with this years planting and harvest.
It looks like a hot day
Yes it was
Keep the good stuff coming thanks
Great team!
Love this video ,I wouldn't mind driving a team again like before,got older started to regret some things I should have kept doing ,
Sorry you aren't able to drive like you did before, but hope you enjoy the videos
Peaceful looking ,
I would love to have you peopl,s, life-style. Always busy, and for a good reason. Sucess. And good excersice for human and horses. 😀😊😀
you have a nice looking farm and great lifestyle...good luck to yall.
Thank you!
Great video loved it
great job !!! My horse is much smaller than yours, it will be difficult for them to pull out such a seeder. my seeder is 1.50 m, but I have black soil. I wish you success.
ANNA HORINOVA thanks, you have a great horse, size isn’t everything
Awesome
2-3-21
Thank You For the video
your two geldings are soooo nice, wish I could reach in and give them some peppermints...spooky, you have never seen spooky, he's just being careful
Love the horses
nice job Trudy, the wind sound effects are awesome, do you have a windmill on your place, I love your silos
No we don't have a windmill, although they would probably do great here!
Odlican video veliki pozdrav iz Srbije
Хвала за гледање
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim Hvala vama za predivan video. Gledam vas sa velikim uzivanjem i ja sam seljak.
I like the horses they are different types of breeds but work well together what your thinking about mules.
Jim , my neighbors run an 8 HP honda on both their corn binder n picker. Actually it’s a 5 on their picker. Just think an old IH H drove n ran pto with not too many more ponies under the hood. Awesome video, beautiful horses
Redhawkfarmsllc That’s great to know, my Honda is a 13 hp so it should handle my picker, I’ll try come fall, thanks
Working Horses With Jim I’m always impressed when I see a 5hp on their liquid slurry tanks. Now I have a question for you. How is your motor connected to said pto ? Assuming it’s a 3/4” keyed shaft style crank , I live in the heart of Amish country. InJ manufacturing is a mile from me as well as Pequea planters etc. I love watching you work your horses. I also appreciate your practical mindset n logic. You’re a fine horsemen.
Redhawkfarmsllc I’ll try to do a close up video of it sometime. A friend of mine set it up for me.
That’d be great. I have an old #6 jd hammermill I run a 5 HP belt drive onto flat belt of mill. Love to convert it to pto drive.
Could we see some harnessing videos, before the horses start work, and feeding after work?
Evelyn Woodcock sure, I will try to do that.
really enjoy your vids reminds me of my dad and grandfather workin those mules ...im still farming but no more mules.(tractors now) have you ever worked mules???
Anthony Vise I drove 4 on a plow once, but no I’ve never used them
Interested in how you break in a new horse to work. Looks to me your Belgians are from pulling stock. Do you turn your horses out at night when working every day?
Bill Glenn I would like to get a young one soon but they seem hard to find. When I do I could show you. In a couple weeks the horses go out at night
The rocks seam to grow every year!
They sure do seem to!
Where do u live I want to play too ? Well work the horses that looks Sooooooo fun n cool to me . I've always lived on a dairy farm which is long gone now just brush growth everywhere . I've rode horses alot, don't have a y now but that's soon gonna change . Thank u and ur lovely daughter for the awesome video .
Great to see how this family works together. And t times , you really move fast (:. Too bad you are not my neighbors, I am the only farmer in our metropolitan region who works the farm, a very small farm, though, with horses.
Klaus Karbaumer thanks for your comments, we horse farmers have to stick together! We wish we could work as fast as the video shows too, we’d get a lot done!
I was wondering if you ever worked three or four together just the other day, when you were pulling that big log with the Belgians. Now I have my answer. So since you are near the Almanzo Wilder homestead, I wonder if anyone around there still grows oats and peas together as fodder, as he described doing? I hadn't heard of anyone growing grass and oats together, and it just made me wonder.
Its neat to see an old cultipacker in the field. My Gram had one of those on the farm in PA when I was a kid. I hadn't seen one of those since, and I didn't know anyone else who knew what one was.
Not really sure
How many hectars are you managing with horses and what is the main product you can make money for living selling it? Thanks!
Александр Македонский we sell hay and beef. We also sell logs and lumber, very diversified.
Do you ever give the horses a drink of water during the work day? Do you switch the team out half way through the day? Request: More Trudy ! :) The team you had on the drill had such a nice brown color in the sun light.
rain coast we definitely give the horses water through out the day, and I’m swapping horses out a lot.
Love your videos..can I ask you to lay out your reins/lines and measure the lengths.. my draught/check rein on my pairs is 4 inches longer..needing to know how much longer is your third rein..please? Also how far off set is your pole on your forecart from 2 abreast to 3 abreast.?? This would really safe me some mucking about on my own here in Australia..best wishes..Mick
Mick Holroyd I measured my third line and it is 8 ft
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim That's great thank you..but if you laid them on the ground how much past the first line is the second line( mine is 4 inches) n then the 3rd line?? Bit hard trying to explain like this..Im sorry..
Mick Holroyd I will try to get back to soon on that. Best wishes to you too!
Mick Holroyd I measured my lines and they’re 4-6” different between lines, but you will have to just experiment with them
Mick Holroyd it’s about 18” on the pole between 2 and 3 abreast
i have planted grains and some chicken and ducks on backyard, can oats grains be feeds?
Not sure for chickens and ducks
Another brilliant video dose your wife work with the horses aswell
👍👌🇨🇦❤, new sub, great stuff
Thanks for the sub!
Your wife did on her right wrist while pulling the spring tooth harrow. Stay safe..Arnie
That type of a wrap is very easy to release. You are very observant, thanks for the comment. That was our daughter Trudy.
question which of your teams work better together the perchorans or/the blonds?
I like them both but I might preference the Belgians a little bit more
Nice Oliver 66 there. Too bad you don't give it some exercise. I have a 77, and 770 Oliver myself.
Do you have to harrow with horses a different way then with a tractor, I did it for my grandfather on his farm with a tractor and was told to drive out of the Field and then back in , so it was down and back , I like your way because there is no wasted time pulling in and out of the field,
Mad Dog there’s a lot of different ways to do it, but it doesn’t matter if it’s a tractor or the horses
Did you do a video with the horses planting corn.
Need to get a York rake and get those rocks out of your barnyard!
We sure do! It's on our to do list. :)
How do you know how many horse to use for each implement by the weight ?
Bruce Cullum there are so many variables to consider, how hard it pulls, how good in shape are your horses, how long will it take. Over time you just figure it out.
What on earth do you have on top of the silos?
Linda Danielson we built roofs on both of them
I forgot to ask how many kilograms your horses pulled.
ANNA HORINOVA we don’t know, we can only guess
If I may, why plant grass and oats at the same time?
The oats are a cover crop for the clover
What state are you IN?
👍😊💟
You need to get a wind screen (aka "dead cat") for your mic.
DJ Moulton thanks, we will look into it
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim You could also get a wireless lapel microphone so we could hear you a little better. I love to be able to hear your voice commands.
How many acre do u own ?
150 acres on the farm and then we have a big woodlot up the road
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim wow damn
How many horses do you have?
We have 4 horses
Why three horses?
What's he calling to the horses? Hooh instead of Whoa? Is that German or what?
Chip Thomas no, it’s just me mumbling
Don't wrap those reins around your wrist. If a pin drops out of that triple tree you are going to get pulled forward possibly into the machinery and also may suffer wrist or arm injury.
Thanks for your concern, it may look like it, but I don't wrap my reins around my wrist.
really who disliked this?
Outdated old technique much advanced techniques are used in 3rd world country
We know there newer ways but this is the way we choose to farm
@@WorkingHorsesWithJim thankyou
