  • Ever heard of a HAY Dog?!?! and I don't mean Ryder lol -- the ‪@MasseyFergusonEME‬ 1840 Baler has been throwing me fits on its tie jobs the last few fields and I finally had had enough -- tired of bales breaking coming down the accumulator constantly having to be cleaned out -- needless to say it was not a very productive hay day - but we did manage to get 2 trailers full (almost 1000 bales) .. and we'll be back for the next vlog..

    Kayla, you and Jason are a huge inspiration because of the way you support each other as you make 1,000s of bales. Springs break and you both remain calm and do the replacement of the spring as you smile. Your family is a blessing to us viewers.

    Good afternoon Kayla. Great video. My favorite method of maintaining a sustainable pantry and stockpiling items long term for the whole family is what I consider to be the most practical, utilizing every type of food storage methods and technology available, both old and new. . Except for the fruits and vegetables that get canned, I keep perishable items like meat, poultry, fish, fruit, vegetables and dairy products in the refrigerator on a short term basis until I'm ready to use them for a big family meal - and for even longer term sustainable storage, a large separate freezer, which can store a half side of beef with plenty of room left over for homemade ice cream etc. . I'm considering upgrading to a walk-in freezer at some point.in the near future, if my plans to open a bed and breakfast come to fruition. Sometimes, however a nice round of cheese can do well for quite awhile on a pantry shelf at room temperature - and doesn't mind even if it has to stand there alone. Store bought canned goods get shelves.in the large pantry closet - several for canned meat like corned beef hash, spam and sandwich spread and another for canned vegetables Bread, rolls, grains, homemade pasta, cereals and the like are stored in special humidity controlled bins I order from Amazon Prime - which usually get delivered to my doorstep about an hour after I order them. . Stuff from the family garden and orchard, like onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, cauliflower, cucumber, pumpkins, carrots, corn celery,, potatoes and yams, cherries, blueberries and strawberries get canned in Mason Jars and stored in the cool, root cellar of this wonderful rambling former farmhouse (circa 1867) I share with my extended blended family and several rambunctious dogs raised on table scraps from the some of the finest food from a plethora of sources both commercial and home based. . There's even a special separate "summer kitchen" which I converted to store butter and ice cream churns, pots, pans, utensils, extra storage containers, foil, bags, cutlery, and other meal related accoutrement. Out back in the woods, just beyond the big pile of wood I maintain all year, (for use in an antique woodstove I keep on hand, in case the power goes out) there's even an old rusting vintage still where my great grandfather made some of the finest corn whiskey for miles. Next to it is the rusting hulk of the Ford Model A he used to transport that powerful hootch by the light of the moon on soft summer nights to his eager customers in a tri-county area. Further into this verdant forest of mostly sycamore, oak, pine and scrub, runs a cool stream into which I occasionally cast a rod or net to catch some Brook Trout, Bluntnose Shiners, or whatever takes the bait (just earthworms for the most part). And yes, hunting season means wild turkey, deer, and even an occasional wild boar. Next week, I'm planning on filing for a permit to 3-D print a smokehouse in order to be able to create gourmet artisan handcrafted, beef, bacon, turkey, and beef stick jerky, which interested local merchants can private label for other people to share with their families. Unfortunately, i had to break the bad news to my free range hens today that due to expected egg shortages regretfully numbered are their days of laying a couple of eggs and then basically taking the rest of the day off with ranging privileges' within the parameters of a few very nice rural acres - parts of which are rich with fat grubworms. There's even a short dirt road between the main barn and the farmhouse which they're free to cross to get to the other side as often as they'd like. My rooster Ben overheard me and he ain't too happy either, knowing full well that due to oncoming egg shortages, he'll be "workin' overtime to make sure there's plenty of eggs for me and the family. Have wonderful Sunday and thank you for allowing me to share.

    I've heard people complain that it's not fair that they live in a city, but in all honesty, they would starve if they moved to a farm. They could neither grow their own food or understand how to use the farm equipment to grow it for others, or as you've clearly shown in this video, the knowledge to fix what breaks.
    Rhodesia learned the hard way, and South Africa now learning, that the farmer needs to be left alone.
    I've never heard of Green Pringles, so I'm going to the store to get me some.

  • @davidschlecht3016
    @davidschlecht3016 2 года назад +2

    Kayla, even though you had problems today you have to look at the amount of hay that Massie has eaten over the 4 years so something is going to happen with it. Good luck in getting the rest picked up and hope you do not get some bad storms there like those that hit St. Louis and parts of Kentucky. Keep following those windrows.

  • @arzamumma1202
    @arzamumma1202 2 года назад +1

    Viewed 8-1-22 from Illinois Hi Kate WOW can you believe it August is here !! Regarding your baler..........consider the NUMBER of bales it has made over the years. Yes, there will be bearings chains pickup teeth etc. The hay dogs are spring loaded as you now, each stroke of the plunger the dogs retract and reset sooooo the number of strokes / bale and the total bales to date the spring held up pretty good.. It is like a piece of wire you bend enough times it will break.

  • @pjmccullough4803
    @pjmccullough4803 2 года назад +3

    The hay dogs have nothing to do with your knotter issue. I have run with multiple hay dog springs broke. However, the twine you are using is likely the culprit. I only use / recommend using 9600/170 or better yet 7200/190. I like the 7200/190 because I can get them in single spools. So I can get 800 bales per set of spools. This twine is thicker and more consistent.
    Good luck.

    If you have top and bottom hay dogs, switch them over. The bottom ones break more often so it makes sense to put one of the bottom ones on top and replacing the bottom one with the brand new.

    That looks like that's the safety stop for the plunger so it doesn't take the needles in the spring break way it looks is what he's replacing am I right

    • @jessepeden5643
      @jessepeden5643 2 года назад +1

      No what he is replacing is called the hay dog spring, , how it works is as the baler picks up the hay and is fed to the plunger, every stroke of the plunger is what makes each flake in a bale. At the end of the stroke when flake is made force of hay pushes hay dog out as seen with broken springs then the spring push the hay dog in the chamber to hold hay from coming back with the plunger on plungers return stroke. If the springs are broken it allows the hay to take path of least resistance and follow the plunger back into the feeding area which when the metering wheel reaches bale length and trips the knotter with out the dogs holding pressure the twine does not receive the resistance it needs to properly tie the bale and thus either a sloppy knot or a sloppy bale will occur
      There is a lot more detail I could go into but this is the just of their current situation

    Maybe not productive in the way you want d but still pretty productive. Got almost 1000 bales and you know you have the baler running like it should. I’d say that’s not a bad day for having some issues with the baler. At least you had the springs.

    • @ChroniclesofKayla
      @ChroniclesofKayla  Год назад

      Honestly. Money. The price of new equipment is ridiculous right now. We’d talked about it at the beginning of the year. And I could either afford a new tractor. Or a new baler. Jason can generally fix just about everything. ESP on the baler. So we went the tractor route. Also there’s a new inline adding to the massy side of things that we’re holding off on - until it comes out. So we’ll probably put in another year of baling on our current 1840. .
