I love your channel! I can only imagine the time it takes you to make a video…all of the different camera angles…wow. But it is noted and appreciated. Thank you!❤❤❤
At 70 I just watch and listen and it's like a warm memory turning into living pictures again as my 1st 23 yrs of life unfold with my Dad being the farmer. So much of what he did I see you doing. 😃Thankyou again for just being you and to make it even more poignant Tyler is my mother's maiden name so, my maternal grparents name, from England to NZ where mother was born. And yes, that tractor time is prime thinking and planning time , for sure. ALONE in Alaska swears by the baking soda method for culling rodents, it works wonders for her. Looking forward to big results for you too. Cheers mate, from an Aussie Nan, in the Land Down Under. 🇦🇺🤗💞👌👍✌️👏✝️🇺🇸
Looks like you got the ground work done in time for the storm. The cattle are looking good and were clearly not all that excited about a new bale. Another great day on the ranch.
❤ yes , your right about that. New Jersey n Florida have a program for feral cats. Because there is so many, they are cought, fixed, and released in warehouses to catch rodents. The owners are loving this program, Im sure there are other states doing it as well.
I saw the recommendation of 1:1 ratio of baking soda and Jiffy corn muffin/bread mix somewhere. I liked the idea because it's not poisoning the rodents who may be picked up by a bald eagle and fed to the eaglets, if not dinner for themselves. I saw some evidence of it being eaten, but I must have had more rats than I thought because I still occasionally see them. Time to mix up many more batches? Yes.
Such a privilege to look over your fence at what you are doing as I’m eating my breakfast. After I’ve been down to check the calves I weaned yesterday. I’m surprised you couldn’t hear the bellowing (all the way from Aus). The electric dividing fence - 3 wires instead of the usual one - is holding well. But they’re NOT happy. I hope they settle as quickly as yours did!
It will be interesting to see the results of FTR no till/ low till test plot. In addition to the time savings on field prep, I would think the fuel savings would also be a factor. I really like these kind of real world tests !
1 liter = 0.264 gal. Hope your soda mix helps clear the rodent problem. Good to see the rain fall. Had our first snow flurries in sw Indiana this morning. Have a great day.
I was amazed the first time I saw a dog, who never once had encountered a rodent in his life, instinctively hear or smell one and catch a snack. Our year old miniature Schnauzer was in the back yard tending to business. Sniffing along the fence line where the deep snow covered the long grass beneath, he suddenly stopped. Cocking his head left and right a few times, let me know that something was going on. Then to my surprise, just like a coyote in a Nat Geo video, Cody pounced. Paws first through the snow into what turned out to be a winter rodent tunnel. Not sure at the moment what was going on I raced outside to find him happily chewing up a successful hunt. If you really want to see how effective dogs can be hunting rats and mice, there are several UK YT channels that use a variety of terriers to clear farms of rodents. Those little dogs weren't bred for centuries to be someone's lap pet.
When I see the machinery working like that, I can’t help but think how much technology has shifted our labor on the land . . . What was once a farmer behind mules, oxen, horses work on the yoke, is now streamlined with tractors, floaters & discs . . . Wow 🤩 we love the cab on that tractor!!
A liter is 1000 CC's or milliliters, just a little bigger than a quart. Comes to 3.78 liters to a US gallon. Not bad for an American, once you get used to it. Also, that works out to a liter of diesel weighs about 1.8 pounds, rather than about 6.8 pounds per gallon. Diesel is a bit heavier than gasoline, but a lot lighter than water. Hope this helps.
Thank you for explaining floating the field. I grew up on a farm but we has row crops. I basically understood why you were floating the field but never seen it before. My dad used a no till drill for cover crops.
You are absolutely loving that tractor. You have it for a year if I remember right. I wonder if you’re thinking seriously considering buying it. You’re going to miss it when it’s gone.
I saw farmers from Asian and Arab/north african youtube channels feeding (putting some in the main feed) baking soda to help cattle gain weight, increase milk production and as a supplement mineral apparently it is good for their digestive system. This are old farming civilisation and they've been doing that for centuries.
Many years ago, we pulled a disk a float and a cultipacker together. It was like pulling a train due to length but one pass and we were ready to plant.
Love how the cows get their face time in lol. We has mice in the pole barn bad. Put out the backing soda and Jiffy Corn muffin mix 50/50 in snack bags made a small hole in the bags. Like magic two weeks no mice. Good luck with it. Talk to LS dealer maybe you can do a demo with one of their no till drills . Sonne Farms does a lot of that. Give Cole A call see how to go about it. ❤️🙏🏼🧢
Great episode. 1 gallon = 3.7854 liters. Field looks great. I’d like to suggest rescuing some fixed female short haired cats. Have a great rest of your week
I stated using the baking soda and jiffy cornbread mix in my shed 1/1. I can see tracks in it and mouse droppings in it and its going down, but never saw a dead mouse. jury still out
When I am hooking stuff like the roller up I get close then use a ratchet strap to pull it into position. A hard battle all alone, I found this to work well.
That LS tractor sure is getting a workout since you got it and it looks like it doesnt struggle at all doing the jobs , iv heard the baking soda works good on rodents - hope it works out for you 👍🇺🇸
Let the mix set for a while. It's gonna take a little time for them to find it, and they may need a few feedings to get enough. It will work if you just let it sit. Within a week or two, you will notice less and less activity.
You should be able to change liters per hour to gallons per hour. Somewhere in settings. Support or an FAQ should be able to tell you where to make the change.
Tyler that ground is very hard. I would imagine if you went no till your yields will keep dipping. That ground needs to breathe. Soil test and figure out what is going on then make a decision on where to go. I would love to help you if you would like to learn some more about dirt. God bless you
The baking soda might work. I never did try it, but I've been told that crumbled Alka Seltzer kills birds fast. A lot of people think these conversations are mean.Not if you are a producer. Rodents destroy a lot of feed, which costs a lot of money. As always I enjoy all your videos. A lot of videos I skip through. Not yours. Always interesting. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your family
Just cut a hole in the bottom of the plastic bottles and put your baits in the mice go in the hole to get it and the bait does not spill out on the ground
This might have been answered during a prior installment video. Is there a use for the hay wrap after it is cut away? No doubt, it would not do for the cattle to get the wrap.😮
The LS Tractor looks so clean; you must wash it often. I'm trying to figure out what kind of implement you were using. It looks like an upside-down pallet with wheels. I would call it a land smoother, you call it a float.
Good to know about the baking soda, been paying a fortune for special rat poison that doesn't kill other animals down the line, turns out that it is pretty much what you have mixed up, just pelletised. Wont be paying for it again!
I had always heard to use Velveeta cheese mashed together with plaster of Paris. Pretty rough way to go for the rats, but most farmers are pretty indifferent to the suffering of rodents.
We used the baking soda and flour and sugar now we have no rodents in the house at all. Love your video God bless you and your family.

Always thinking and are like the old TV show Macgyver. Both great compliments to all at FTR.
Each time I watch his videos, if he is fixing or making something, I think of MacGyver 😊
You are so funny. Love hearing your plans and why you are always thinking of better ways to care for your family and animals😊
Thanks for sharing farmer Tyler ranch I enjoyed the video
Looks like you got the ground work done in time for the storm. The cattle are looking good and were clearly not all that excited about a new bale. Another great day on the ranch.
I enjoy the 10:30 attention to detail you take with the hay field. This will be my third hay season as a fan.
Also check with your local animal control. Many of them have a barn cat program and adoptions are usually free. Cats come spayed or neutered.
I think he had a lead on some feral kittens, maybe they aren't big enough yet to come to his farm.
❤ yes , your right about that. New Jersey n Florida have a program for feral cats. Because there is so many, they are cought, fixed, and released in warehouses to catch rodents. The owners are loving this program, Im sure there are other states doing it as well.

I see you're keeping that new tractor nice and shiny, great video Tyler

She thinks my tractor, sexy

Your field looks beautifully prepared for planting seed..👍 1 American gallon = 3.875 litres
Excellent episode, glad you got the ground done before the storm 😊😊😊😊. Baking soda does work but I think it takes a bit longer to work 😊😊xx
Thank you for explaining floating the field. I grew up on a farm but we has row crops. I basically understood why you were floating the field but never seen it before. My dad used a no till drill for cover crops.

Especially effective for acidosis. Always eager to have your postings come up. Thanks!
For a no till drill, call your local Resource Conservation Distr. or Marin RCD
Glade u got the fields ready before the rains came in the cows are looking good have a good day.
You an your family stay safe thru that strom.the good thing you get some good rain fr it
Nice hat
Many years ago, we pulled a disk a float and a cultipacker together. It was like pulling a train due to length but one pass and we were ready to plant.

Give Cole A call see how to go about it. ❤️🙏🏼🧢
that brown white cow must be the boss,always first.
Thats what I was wondering - if she was the head cow
I rent a no till drill from the county USDA office to put in forage oats behind soybeans for hay. Works pretty good. Be safe out there we need you.
Great episode. 1 gallon = 3.7854 liters.
Field looks great. I’d like to suggest rescuing some fixed female short haired cats. Have a great rest of your week
The calves seems to be getting the idea that mom isn't the food source anymore - lol. That LS Tractor seems to be a pretty good machine.
I stated using the baking soda and jiffy cornbread mix in my shed 1/1. I can see tracks in it and mouse droppings in it and its going down, but never saw a dead mouse. jury still out
I enjoyed watching FT. If you could get your tillage farming to work, you would probably also have significant fuel savings.
Rolling rolling rolling!!!
When I am hooking stuff like the roller up I get close then use a ratchet strap to pull it into position. A hard battle all alone, I found this to work well.
Good luck with the varmint trial !!
Good morning!
One liter is equal to a little more than a quart, liquid measure. So 13 liters/hour is 13.73695 quarts or 3.434237 gallons/hour of operation.
Thanks. Hope we don’t get too much rain but not looking good. Your field looks good and will be interested in knowing if your mixture works.
That LS tractor sure is getting a workout since you got it and it looks like it doesnt struggle at all doing the jobs , iv heard the baking soda works good on rodents - hope it works out for you 👍🇺🇸
Let the mix set for a while. It's gonna take a little time for them to find it, and they may need a few feedings to get enough. It will work if you just let it sit. Within a week or two, you will notice less and less activity.
Have you tried the bucket style trap that drowns them? They climb up to the bait and fall through the door.
Have you checked the air in the new tractor tires? The front looks a little low. Of course, that could be the weight of the bales.
My grandma used to put out bowls of flour or cornmeal mixed with plaster of paris powder to kill mice and rodents.
Do you have an implement dealer in your area that sells no-till drills? Sometimes they may also have a unit to rent. Sometimes...if you're lucky.
You should be able to change liters per hour to gallons per hour. Somewhere in settings. Support or an FAQ should be able to tell you where to make the change.
👍Your mix will work. I would give it 3-4 day's.
Tyler that ground is very hard. I would imagine if you went no till your yields will keep dipping. That ground needs to breathe. Soil test and figure out what is going on then make a decision on where to go. I would love to help you if you would like to learn some more about dirt. God bless you
Here in kansas you can buy one of those older drills for couple thousand dollars and is a lot easier to plant you hay
1 ltr is approx 2.2 pints. Hope this helps Tyler.
My dad always said if you're going to do it do it right at 12 needs to build up
Morning FT! Very busy and interesting vid as usual! Great job! God’s blessings!❤❤
Good update, always planning and trying something new!
One liter equals just a hair over a quarter of a gallon. 1 liter = 0.264 gallons. Love ya, FTR
The baking soda might work. I never did try it, but I've been told that crumbled Alka Seltzer kills birds fast. A lot of people think these conversations are mean.Not if you are a producer. Rodents destroy a lot of feed, which costs a lot of money.
As always I enjoy all your videos. A lot of videos I skip through. Not yours. Always interesting.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and all your family
I always consider one liter to be a quart.
Hello from Washington state. Looks a little heavy on the baking soda. The rodents that I have used it on seem to go for the cornmeal.
There’s a lot going on today on Farmer Tyler Ranch!
4 liters is approximately one US gallon.
The simple conversion is a liter is very close to a quart just a little over. So a gallon has almost 4.5 liters.
Just cut a hole in the bottom of the plastic bottles and put your baits in the mice go in the hole to get it and the bait does not spill out on the ground
This might have been answered during a prior installment video. Is there a use for the hay wrap after it is cut away? No doubt, it would not do for the cattle to get the wrap.😮
I see you got some rain. We finally got some rain after a few months without anything. New York State
good job
First time to be the first like and comment. Who says being sick in bed is all bad. 😅
Good morning Kenny, hope you get well soon .
Thank you that’s very kind.
Oh my goodness! You are an inspiration! If I get in the top 20 comments I think I’m doing well 😆👏👏👏👏👏👏 hope you are feeling better soon
Is annual grass seed much better for hay than perennial seed. That is alot of ground work each year. Well done
So are the Goodnature mouse traps not working?
You've got a coat on!
thx
I hope y'all will not get very bad weather from that Bomb Cyclone rolling in🙏🏻
Well it will and will smell them
They are going to eat it. Just like a little kid, the sweeter the mix. The more they want to ear ir
Now is the time to do repairs on 8n while you have the fancy tractor…lol,peace…
Hopefully you planted before the 6in rain coming in?
Lockwood seed might have a no til drill to rent.
The LS Tractor looks so clean; you must wash it often. I'm trying to figure out what kind of implement you were using. It looks like an upside-down pallet with wheels. I would call it a land smoother, you call it a float.
I have often wandered why that trailer was doing there uppside down.
Good to know about the baking soda, been paying a fortune for special rat poison that doesn't kill other animals down the line, turns out that it is pretty much what you have mixed up, just pelletised. Wont be paying for it again!
Plaster of paris and icing sugar works as well,
I had always heard to use Velveeta cheese mashed together with plaster of Paris. Pretty rough way to go for the rats, but most farmers are pretty indifferent to the suffering of rodents.
4 litres is 1 US Gallon, from a Canadian.
You're waiting for the smell of the rodents!
FTR, Looks like you need some shims for the 3 point. I'm guessing Cat II eyelets on the tractor and you're using Cat I implement pins on float?
Better to be smarter 😊
Tyler, FYI
1.0 gallon = 3.78 litres
Jill 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
A litre is roughly a quart. There are about 4.5 litres to a gallon.
Why would you take one of the bales from inside a shed, when you still have hay outside in the weather?
When u going move some of the cows to the water pasture
about 3.8 liters per gallon............ a liter is slightly larger than a quart
8 liter is 2,1133 gallon
Do you like the blue tractor and do you want to keep it .
How big is that field you're preparing?
1 gallon is 4,5 liter
1 litre = 2,11338 pints and 1 gallon = 3,78541 litre
Weight wise the Baking Soda is too much. Good luck!! I’m going to try this in my garage…..😊🙏🏼
If you mentioned it,. I missed it. Does the rodent bait have any negative effects on the barn cats?
