- Today Jim and the draft horses are out mowing hay! We wanted to share with you some of the problems we face when mowing a hay field. After mowing the field, we put the drone up in the air to show you how all the animals are enjoying a summer night!
Watch our videos to learn about draft horses- horse logging, horse farming, and horse training! Jim uses Belgian, Percheron, and Suffolk horses to do work on the farm and in the woods. He teaches about harnesses, horse-drawn logging and farming equipment, horse feeding and maintenance, and voice commands for horses. New videos uploaded every week. Keep watching to see how Jim trains his new Suffolk Punch colts as he has trained his full-grown teams!

Good morning to everyone. Hope you are having a good day today.
You too!
Good morning! Thank you for the very practical information you give; you're not just videoing yourself mowing, you show us the real details (like what do do when your mower goes down on mowing day!) of using *real* horsepower that I haven't found anywhere else. This is knowledge that's in danger of being lost, and you're preserving it, and I think that's amazing. PS I also love that y'all are letting Duke and Earl spend most of their time maturing even though you're pressed for horses with Buck gone and Lady on maternity leave. You treat your horses like partners, not slaves. If you didn't I'd have been gone a long time ago no matter how much info you could provide. Respect.
Thanks, that is very nice of you to say!
L
Thank you for showing your pasture, the cows, Duke & Earl, the chickens, cats and Lady & Bree for the grand finale.
You have a beautiful homestead 😊
A fresh cut hay field is always so pretty. I love how it smells too. So fresh and clean! I enjoyed getting to see all the cattle, Duke, Earl, the chickens and kitty cat at the end! You and Brenda have a beautiful farm!❤ Even after Baron and Ken worked and switched out with Baron and Bill, that Baron still has the pretty prancing in his step! I wonder if Duke and Earl will be the same?! Little Bree gets prettier every day! She was so cute running to get close to mom when she heard the drone!! Adorable❤
Jim thank you for going over the fields with the drone. Nice work with Ken, Bill, and Baron. Love seeing all the cows with Duke and Earl who are getting big. The chickens and the cat were also cute. Lady and Bree at the end was priceless. Bree getting bigger and Lady looking fantastic after having her foal. You and Brenda take such good care of your animals and farm as this is why I really enjoy your videos. Thank you Brenda for your great job in the videos you do. God bless you both.
Yes
Jim is so capable!
Such a farmer, using adjustable wrench and vise grip. Gives this Mechanic heartburn to watch (always wants the right tool for every job), but also great nostalgia for helping my godfather doing the same things on his farm growing up!
... nothing is as easy as it looks, but I always knew farming was a science , otherwise everyone would be doing it and I enjoy all the teaching moments which Jim is better at than he thinks, and Brenda your still one of my favorite videographers,, great episode...
what an amazing overview of the farm and all the animals.
Love the drone shots!!
Glad you like them!
The equipment malfuntion and Jim's repair was a great learning opportunity for me. Good to know how things work, even if I'm not out mowing a field with horses. The bonus of the drone flyover at the end of the video was lovely! 😊
I happened to look at the number of subscribers, 80k. So well deserved and a reward for your hard work and great content. Lady looks so good and Bree is just the cutest filly. Drone coverage is a great bonus, showing the “Jim and Brenda world.” Thank you for sharing.
That certainly is a lot of hay on the ground. The colt looks like she's feeling out nice. Nice fix repair job, Jim. Thanks for sharing Jim and Brenda.
I want to thank Brenda so much for bringing us these great pictures! Just want her to know she is much appreciated!!!
So very interesting the mindset to that problems are a part of life and there is no sense in railing at them just have the foresight to try to have things on hand to fix and a tool box right on the tractor to help fix them when there is trouble. What a good life lesson. Wow I need to fill my tool box metaphorically. Thank you great video just started my day off right thank you!
that looks like a heavy crop good job.Those horses are doing so good they like to work.Jim you are in heaven i hope you know it.
Castle nuts !That's how you tighten the clutch on the old JD'S, you have 4 and have to tighten them evenly! Hay looks great! I know your pain on cutting lodged hay! Mowed a lot of hay with a John Deere B & #5 sickle bar mower! Duke & Earl, living the life! Can't wait to see you hook them up!
You both really know how to tell a story with video! You show all the hard work you do & then have such a peaceful, beautiful ending! I feel like I'm there with you guys & feel like we're friends!! 🙂
Greatest horse powered farming there is. Couldn’t live without the mowing vids. Thanks for long footage! New drone is awesome
Thank you for sharing! We are enjoying your videos very much, especially all your hard work! Refreshing to see good ol' sweat and labor! :-)
So much going on! So grateful 💖 to see it all. Many blessings to you all! Brie is such a sturdy little girl! Just beautiful!
I know nothing about haying or the hay . Thankyou for taking the time to explain this .
Love your sharing this life .your farm and your animals .
Thankyou .
Love seeing yhe chicken s waddle down
Lady is beautiful , the filly saw the drone snd ran to mum .
So nice .
Your vidios take me away .
Thankyou .
Looking forward to seeing Duke and Earl become part of the work force team. I hope they get as big and strong as Baron.
Great crop. Looks like a great way to spend a day. That’s a lot sweeter sound than my tractor when I am cutting hay
My father, who has now passed, grew up on a farm that only used horses. Somehow they ran an entire 120 acre farm with just two horses!. My dad said the farming they did was the same farming done in the 1800's. He lamented about watching his peers plow and cultivate with a tractor while he was sent out in the fields with the horses.
Anyway, a story he liked to tell............dad was about 12 (I failed to mention my dad hated the farm and left as soon as he could) and during harvest time the days were long and hard. Dad said to his father, why do we have to cut all this wheat, harvest the grain, store it and put up the straw? The answer was to feed the horses. My dad then asked why do have to cut all this hay, transport it to the barn and store in the barn (they stored it loose which, as you know is a whole process of its own!). The answer was the same, to feed the horses. My dad contemplated these answers and finally asked his dad........"then why don't we just shoot the horses." Dad said he got a look that would kill and was told not to do anymore thinking and more doing.
😄
But he had purpose sometimes lacking to day ✌️
Hilliarious
Love fresh mowed hay fields. The drone footage was nice at the end. Blessings
Rows look pretty straight to me
ALWAYS LOVE WATCH'IN THANKS FOR SHARE'IN...!! GOD BLESS..!!
Well done Jim. I may say that, for almost a centry ago and Isaw this in every summer. :omg live the farmers!
Beautiful Drone pics
You can cover so much more with the drone...its good.
What a Great Video, Wow!.
You Guys.., don't ever change. Abby, such a great contributor (drone work) to your channel. After all, initially it was her beautiful voice that attracted me to this sight initially and now look et.. Jim, nice job on the repairs, thanks for sharing, it's been a long time since I worked on a sickle cutter bar, my brothers warning me my finger placement. Be careful, I know you are, keep 10.
John. Ps; Checked the comments,, yep, everything covered ah ha.😄
So much comes to mind, better stop there. Thank You.
Love from Alaska
❤Wow, when Jim put blade down where he had stopped: was exactly where it needed to be when he restarted! AWESOME!
VERY ENJOYABLE, Thank you.
When I used to hay with horses I ran metal pitman arms. Was tired of broken wooden ones and had no problems after that. Don't worry nothing will break if you get plugged up, the mower wheels will just skid. Now I run metal pitman arms in my power mowers with still no problems. This method was told to me by an old timer who's father used to do it.
Great Crop Jim have a day love from TEXAS ❤
Good job Jim and Brenda 😊.
I LOVE THE DRONE FOOTAGE...Lov from south alabama.
Brenda,you made it past 80 K,,nice job on the hay fields,, Duke and Earl look very healthy... so nice to see ya end with Lady and Bree..thanks guys.xx,,s and c
Haha looks like Bree spied the drone
Baron is almost working like an old hand. Never moved while Jim fixed the mower. Handy fella, Jim.
Jim's a smart man . Baron is tied to the truck body . Safety first .
Hard work but it must be so frustrating for Jim when the grass it to wet or things get clogged up,having to stop all the time to fix the problem ❤
Have you started your 2024 calendars yet? We love your horses. They just take us back in time. Same with your calendars. We think we'll give them out free with our puppies this year.
Thanks for everything you do on the farm , Jim you get my blood flowing when you cut hay it brings back memories when l used to farm 🚜 l loved making hay , yes l like to have a clean cut paddock , keep safe you all God bless you and the farm
Recall during the 1960,s using a knife bar mower but Pto driven and tractor mounted, however the same rules applied if the grass was flatted by wind an weather then one way mowing was necessary, to go against the fall of the grass, sometimes, this doubled the time taken to mow the field, I would also say that the swath of old knife bar mower lays the grass down better to dry in to hay than modern rotary condition mowers, great video
Mowing is mowing. But how do we account for the fact that just a couple of months ago Baron would walk away from the line of pull during plowing. He's doing so much better.
I really enjoyed watching Jim fixing his mower part. I've been rather good at using tools in my time. I was a framing carpenter, an artist, and horsewoman. Animal lover big time. One evening my daughters and I completely disassembled an ice cream maker. For fun and learning. This episode has it all for me. Photography too. Thanks, Jim and Brenda! Id be in heaven where you live.
Printaboul = Gaetan
All the knowledge that I have about horses, especially work horses, is theoretical, since I'm more of a dreamer than a doer, I never got to drive a team.
Why I say this, because I alwarys thought that Stallions were for reproductive mission only, and not so for work. But really, either Baron is special, or you are special, and by God, you both are special. Or it is just a thing that can be.
Your videos really widened my vision of what working of a Stallion could be. In my reveries, I was afraid of Stallions.
When ever possible, I would appreciate listening to the differences of working stallions compare to geldings and mares.
As always, mille fois merci...
Zato obožavam klasične mašine (kosačica) , lake su za popravku i neuništive. Odličan posao! 👍🙂🥇
Isn't there more hay in a crooked row?!?! (Ha!Ha!) That is what my Step-Dad would say about the crooked corn and soybean rows. Bree was like,.....is that a UFO Mom?!?!
Ah ha.😄
Love the music with the drone shots and seeing Duke and Earl with the beef cows . Also the Amish family going past your farm at sundown, so nice .
Way so cool and oh so nice, thank you one all ever so much for the update.! Well Done on all counts.!
I So Much Enjoy Watching Field Work Thank You For Sharing This Video With Us Hopefully No More Break Downs And All Else Go's Well. Plus Y'all Have A Nice Beef Herd Growing There Also Bree is Growing Up Nicely Too Thanks For Showing Her And Lady. Blessings To Y'all And Please Be Safe ✌️
Excellent video. You covered all the bases with all your animals. Always enjoy cutting hay.
Thanks 👍
Wow, all that cut hay is such a site. Good luck w/ the weather. Thank you for sharing.🐴🐴
A farmer after my heart, using a Cresent wrench for a hammer on the pitman, you go, jim!
Wow Lady is looking gr8
Love the aerial shots!!
Such a 'beautiful foal ,It's a pleasure to look at!
Some beautiful views and great video. Hard not to love the farm in summer. 😊
Jim, you're a jack of all trades!
A lovely crop of clover Jim, you sure need some bees to set seed.
Wow, Duke and Earl look in Dang good nick out in the paddock.
BIG JOB!!
Great mower repair
The country should vote in a farmer for President in order to get the things rolling again. Love seeing all the animals!
President Jimmy Carter was a peanut farmer from Georgia .
Hey jim, watched your videos from time to time. Enjoying your craftmanship, the Very good relation with your very good trained horses an, the beautiful land and your "paise" , your zen like approach.
In this video particulary , ( time arround 18:00 ) I would like to comment that I was teached to not touch the cutting parts of the mower with your bare or gloved hands while in the field with the horses.( Although you RAISED, SO DISCONNECTED THE TRACTIONBAR? While cleaning the cutterpart ) .so I would use a wooden or other fork to remove the grass that gets sticked in the cutterbar. Our antique mowers have like a tube solded, where you can keep the fork save, upwards, while driving, mowing.
Wishing you good continuation , and nice vibes, kind regards,Ber
very informative thank you
Back in my place I'm shocked how everything is turing towards yellow already. Really lacking of rain and water here. It's all still so green in your place, that's unbelievable. But now I hope the weather keeps warm and dry for you so that you can get good hay! -Chris
Hi Chris!, glad your home safely. I hope you get some rain, sounds like you could really use some.
It was great to see you in the videos, happy you were able to make this trip plan a reality! Good job.
John.
@@johnkomosa4089 Hi John, thank you! My soil is hard like stone with cracks in it. Some rain may come tomorrow, but that's not enough, as that dry soil will not suck up the water. On the other hand, I now need to cut my hay. It was a great trip, I could really rest and relax, and finally I learned the principles of the collars and harnesses they use, which I am so thankful for. Have a great day! -Chris
So lovely
Milestone 500, thank you for your videos.
Nice work Jim Brenda looks like you should be grease the pitchman arm also. Have a great day.
Love the view from above.

Thank-you to you folks for being true stewards of God's planet. Around here in south-central NYS, farmers use machinery to cut, ted, and bale their hay. Two does have lost their fawns so far thanks to them. My Great Uncle Hector farmed with horses in the late '40s through the mid-50s in Perryville, NY, near Chittenango. My Uncle Jake in Chittenango grew up on a farm that was worked with horses in the same time frame.
LA AȘA OAMENI FOARTE MULT RESPEKT BRAVO
GREAT Video.
I forgot to comment in a previous video about how well Baren stands.
I noticed Jim doesn't need to close the barn door any more.
Thank you , stay safe
Surely impressive how Jim can stay, without a seatbelt, bouncing all the way around. Really nice camera work, Brenda.
Jim puts a dab of crazy glue on his butt .😂
Paradise with you😊
Where would we be without vise grips and an adjustable wrench. I know we would be lost . The mower won't break when it's not in use that's for sure. Wish I was close to your farm as I started my mechanic career at a Massey Ferguson garage and I would love to help you out. Godbless and stay safe.
Don't go too far without mentioning the pitchfork and scoop shovel too. Along with vice grips and crescent wrench, all essentials.
Hey have you seen the vice grips . Where was the last place you used them .
I loved the drone footage. You’re doing a wonderful job
Jim's hay mowing reminds me of when on the farm we had giant pasture grass front lawn that I and my sister had to mow along with other chores but of course hand push mower and we had to do a lot of backing up when it got too tall but I was only 6 so didn't have that much power😊😅😂
That looks like sub clover and is a great nitrogen fixer, you can cut hay several times in a good year and it just keeps producing, then when it looks finished for the summer you can turn the cows onto it and they clean up any leftovers. They do well for the rich pickings, and fatten great on it.
На равтове дълга .в дъжда можем да си пийем кафе.
Congratulations on #500 and drone footage was great. That baby, ooh la la, so cute.😊
Thanks so much
Sickle bar mowers are really neat but can be very fickle. Ive used them on tractors. Back before I had major head injuries I started to design a gard / chute to prevent clogging kinda like the gaurds that were put on the front of old time trains that would push snow and debris to the side. Much love ❤️
Great hay day overall
I think it was the cats, they had a meeting on the bed of the trailer and they had a accident.
Big like !
When Duke and Earl get working thats going to be quite a nice set of teams.
I can just imagine the smell of those grasses and clover being cut. Such a good smell (to me)
You've failed to talk about your team.
They work together so well
...........thanx........
Barron works extremely well with Bill. They seem to walk at the same pace.
I see what you were talking about, the grass tends to lay down in front of the cutter, it seems that you need a paddle wheel like on a header to handle the grass hay. Love the horses my friend.
like they say, if you don't want it to rain, lay down some hay on the ground, guaranteed to rain, lol
Great to see things done in the old traditional way!
If working every day, how many hours per day, mowing like this, can this team work?
Surely the team does better on overcast days than days with blazing sun.
Lady looks beautiful.
Looks like the Ponderosa jim
That's a lot of nice hay! Let's hope the season continues to be productive. Brenda, could you show us how your garden is doing?
Congratulations on 80k subscribers
