    If you don't get a second hydraulic yet I think you can convert the string tie to a rope you pull on.very graceful save on the tipped baler. 20000 feet plastic is what I use. The 9000 is just thicker for square bales.

    The bales you have tying issues with you can roll out and re-bale (tie them the second time) You also could double up the windrows with the side rake for less travel and quicker/better bale creation. And until you get the second remotes put on the tractor, you could probably run long lines with adapters to the load controls out front and use say the bucket control to tie the bales.

      @chuckanderson1770 Год назад +1

      Love the suggestion on re-baling! I tried a few windows of double raking but I had to go much slower to bale so I decided to try on another field. I tried the hoses it need special fittings. On to the remote! 😊. Thanks for watching!

    Definitely recommend using wrapping instead of twine on the round bales; they can be stashed in a single layer next to each other for a year even in the elements and the outer layer of hay and wrapping help it stay fresh in the center. As long as you're not trying to sell it the hay stays plenty fresh enough to use for feed. Awesome to see people getting into it!

You can get them anywhere from $8,000-$15,000 depending on condition, bale count and year. It’s a roller type baler so no belts I think you would enjoy it much better. Also if you can try to get one that has a wide pickup on it, that thing will eat some huge thick windrows like nobodies business! I’m starting a hay business this year 24 years old I’ve never done the full operation of making hay so I know the learning curves can be brutal! Best of luck!

    Well not knowing the variety of Hay, I would say that by the emerging seed=heads that it is a wee bit past optimum nutrient value, but as my Son would say "it is better than pine straw and snowballs" We restared the Small Family Farm after a 30 year hiatus which ended with the USDA dairy buy out in 1986.... WE row cropped Cotton and Peanuts for 4 years then were shoved us into where the real money,, Commercial Hay..... We are starting our 7th year supplying TSC with Small Squares converted from 4x5 rounds we baled,. hauled and stored especialy for that purpose....... P,S My Son put his City Slicker Wife in the tractor seat and she rolled over 300 Net Wrapped bales one afternoon..... Also if those baler belt splice pins have never ben changed -------- You are gonna have Fun...... A JOB that usually takes 30 minutes took us 6 Hours ......; and we are mechanically minded people'!!!!!

    I'm not sure but if the hydraulic line will reach the mid mount for the loaders third function you might get away with using one of those until you add a remote either way you learned how to use that bailer so next time will be easier. The M and R series come with different things on them and I think the M has a second remote and I'm pretty certain the R has Multiple remotes but they cost so much more and I think that one is just as capable for what you're doing.

    Ok I’m not a hater I’m just concerned being very inexperienced farmers you need to have your PTO covers all it takes is a split second to wrap a human up in that PTO don’t take the mind set that we will stay away cause it doesn’t work that way that is one of the most dangerous things on a farm guards are there so we don’t go to an early grave I cannot stress how important that is
    That is some nice hay nice orchard mix

      Thanks for the concern! I grew up on a dairy farm and know exactly what you are talking about. I am looking into it. Thanks for watching!

    In time you will get there. You need to find someone local, That will take you under their wing and help give you advice on how to run the equipment.

      I have had cattle since 14 and was learning to cut and bale hay at eleven. I try to pass on the knowledge I have to those who will listen.

      We have great neighbors who are very helpful! I grew up on a Wisconsin dairy farm but haven’t farmed in 45 years. I know a lot of the basics but am amazed how much I forgot 😊. No problem with the Haybine and rake but never used a round baler. I am getting that figured out and like it a lot. Thanks for watching!

      Yeah they asked me that when I purchased the tractor, but I had never needed more than one set so I didn't want to pay for an upgrade. Guess I am paying now :-) Thanks for watching!

    Just curious, I've been in hay field for over 70 years, just wondering why you raked the windrows as you did??? just wondering??? and wondering why you run the gear you ran in...also, running the bind at the length you did...was there a reason for that...

    • @chuckanderson1770
      @chuckanderson1770 Год назад

      Hi. I’m not sure I know how we could have raked it any other way. The slow gear is because the field is really rough as a former Christmas tree farm. I’m not sure what bind is . Do you mean string wrap? We are still learning so any suggestions are welcome. Thanks for watching!

    • @chuckanderson1770
      @chuckanderson1770 Год назад +1

      That was about 7 acres. It is pretty rough ground so I can’t go too fast 😊

    Can’t bale hay after the dew starts falling. Damp hay will clog the baler. Shouldn’t take over than 1 1/2 hours to bale 7 acres. This video is very tiring.

      This was our first time EVER using a round bailer and we are just sharing our experience with how it went. We are learning as we go and are not afraid to show our mistakes.
