I got eight in a day in a half, not proud but i have to do something & it's the cheapest way.

I was wondering if you had her in 4WD? If not I think it could have helped you but I may be mistaken. Thanks for the vid!

Was in until the corporate sponsorship, now I can't trust a thing you say. Thanks for being up front.

Thanks for the great tips.

The wheels are genius

Thank you for sharing your insight with raising hogs. We have 3acres here in high desert of So Calif with garden, fruit trees, layer chicken, we order our meat chicken couple times a year. Now I want to expand to next level of self sustainable with pigs. Your video really helped. Only question is which breed to start? I hear commercial and heritage breeds..

I did this and the squirrels ate it all.

cool!

I ordered one for my BX today. I just received it, it’s very nice. I can’t wait to install it

Morning Jack, Our ATV club purchased a TYM 574 last year. How is this camera system holding up for you? Do you still like it?

A friends neighbor caught 52 mice in an old cabin using this method.

Thank you for this. 👍

Where are you located please?

Do u have to use electric fence?

It did not work for us.

Great video. Important information, articulate presentation. Interesting stuff! Thank you!

I'm going to try this. Chipmunks are DESTROYING our yard and garden, it's honestly out of control. I have tried everything on the market to stop them and nothing works. I haven't wanted to end them, but I hit my limit today. You can't step anywhere around our house without finding holes or sinking into the ground because of tunnels. I'm done!

I have a BX23S and a TYM T494 w/ backhoe. They each serve their purpose and I like having both.

Why don’t you leave atleast a few trees to shade the pasture

See...I enjoy companion chickens. Sex links only live about six years. Hoping for a longer lived chicken, I've been getting heritage chicks and raising them.....but so far, no luck on finding a FEMALE. It's getting to be a chore to care for and raise chicks that are going to be in someone else's soup pot. Unless I can buy DIRECTLY from a breeder who knows his breed....I'll stick to sex links. I've raised too many roos. Yes....I do a wing check, a tail check, a comb/spur check......(it's so much easier just to look for balls.) but chickens give you no clue. Lol....I've got chicken poop on my laptop... The chickens were raised with our german shepherd, and they go out, and come in....with him. He's a good boi. (he seems to enjoy having a job) In the past, mine have laid nearly until their deaths. Yes, year two.....sometimes as many as two eggs in 24 hours. That's superproduction and they can't do it for long. The more eggs they lay, the closer they are to death.....so....I've been looking for a hen who only rarely lays eggs.

I’ve had issues with something eating my seedlings. We think it’s a mouse. If conventional traps don’t work I’m trying this.

i feel your pain with a bx. love the bx but definitely not big enough

You failed to address the question posed by the title... I have three roosters in a flock of 12 birds. Having four hens... I ordered 8 hens and received 3 roosters and 5 hens. I only wanted 1 rooster at most... Can I keep two? All three? do I need to add hens?

This is the hands-down best way to get the conks. First morning there were 8 in 1 bucket. I'm now at 30 total 4 days later. thanks for the idea!

I know how you feel it's hard for me as well when I do that to my babys ( ducks and childrens)

Amazing! Set this up by the front porch yesterday afternoon, checked it the next morning and had 3 chipmunks in the bucket...Wow!

This worked for me! Also managed to scoop up the chippy and re-home him a few miles away. Thanks!

Worked really well. And it would seem you don't even need bait or seeds. Made 4 of these to set up around the property. Thought I'd put them out while I waited on the seed I ordered to arrive. So the chipmunks would get used to them. Went out a week later to fill with sunflower seeds, and three of the four buckets had chipmunks in them. Working great for me . Thanks for the idea.

What does the book on the tractor and loader say lift capacity is?

This worked great! I got 2 chipmunks that were in my planters within 4 hours of setting this up by their burrow

Ty for this info! Literally within the first 10 minutes i got my first chipmunk. If i can grab em before they drown i relocate them. Ive caught 6 rats and 5 munks in one week!!

Any update. Just got pigs. How is the build working. Thank you

I've been processing and selling chicken for over 20 years. I use the language which is best for my customers, not the "industry" that wants to institutionalize local food production. The opinion of a vegan is also of no concern to me. Their opinions (dogma) are rarely founded in reality. They rely on emotional and psychological manipulation. Most importantly, they do NOT represent my customer base. Well, almost. When vegans need to take a break from veganism to recharge their health, my chicken seem to be their first choice. Why? because animal husbandry and animal welfare is more important to me than "labels". You do you, just make sure your choices serve the best master(s).

Wow Perfect Thanx

WORKS! 3 days = 4 rats (yikes) and 15 chipmunks. And, we're in the suburbs.

The BX is only if you want to mow, or need a small footprint due to space restrictions. If you need a chore tractor but no mowing and it doesn't have to fit in tight areas, than get a bigger rig.

My situation is similar to yours. Bought a brand new 2680 with cab and loader to replace our aged bx2200. We had 2 horses that lived at a neighbours place. 4 years later, we bought the neighbours place and now raise a small herd of cattle there and our needs evolved. A new tractor was cost prohibitive, and our BX does so many small jobs around the yard, and our local kubota dealer has been great to deal with. Our solution was to keep our 2680 for yard/garden work and small jobs. But, we bought a 1976 ford 4600 with a loader to do the large tasks. Paid cash for it. We do large work like moving round bales, plowing and planting ground to start to grow our own feed. Then great to keep the bx for small things, yet have a large paid for tractor for the farm chores

This guy makes sense... But seriously, the tractor offerings have changed so much over the years. Glad you have a great supportive dealer with TYM.

Extra roosters are what chicken dinner is made of. That being said, the one we kept is kind of an asshole, but he does his job. We got 40 baby chicks from him. We have tussled though and I had to teach him who was boss, but even then he still tries to go at me from time to time. Unfortunately, for him, I'm not afraid of him and will happily grab him when he tries to flog me. One tip, go out at night when he's roosting, grab him, and clip the spurs and nails. Dog nail clippers and a nail file are your friends.

I keep my roosters out in the yard in the early morning and overnight. When the hens come out during the day, I sort my excess roosters into the coop and leave my two main roosters out (chosen for being most docile with the hens, I also have 30 hens so they split between 2 roosters just fine). Most people either dont have the time or the patience to sort their birds every day, but I love my roosters. I have a total of 6, and they are not aggressive and I have grown fond of each 😂❤ I definitely do NOT need any more roosters though! I am set for a long time lol.

I have 4 serema roosters. Will I be able to sell. I am keeping one

Why are you using peanut butter in your trap when it's the strawberries the chipmunk likes and is stealing? Just curious. Good luck!

teaching your kid to murder.. maybe its you thats gotta go

When I moved into my new home in NH, I knew I needed a tractor. I too was looking into a small compact tractor till I talked to my neighbor. He told me buy the biggest tractor you can afford because if you buy small you will wish you got a bigger tractor from Day one. So I ended up buying a used trade in JD4600. And funny thing was it was from the same place you bought your kabota. I went there to look at a used lx and saw the jd. The salesman said they just got it. And it had a cab with heat the the kabota I was going to buy didn't. Best thing I did. Makes cleaning the snow during storms much more enjoyable in a dry heated cab. Enjoy your new tractor!

I found your channel in the past with a Kabota BX search. I have been subscribed for a few years now. I have the BX with the front snowblower and like the ease of removing snow and summer bucket use for gardening and firewood transportation on my property. Storing it in the garage is also a plus. Thanks for sharing.

How do you keep squirrels out of the bucket trap?

Good video Jack.

Awesome information thank you

There's plenty of us that have made the exact same mistake for the same reasons..I think I would say, work out what you think will do the job and go one or two sizes bigger..

I bought a used Kubota BX2660 about five years ago. I don't have a farm, don't plan on having a farm and it's just enough on two acres here in CT. I've cut and moved tress, spread 10 yards of mulch every year, spread 16 tons of stone, spread many yards of top soil and have to say, is amazing! It's already paid for itself and more. I think when someone's looking for a tractor they have to look at their current situation and where their current and future expectations might go. It sounds like you were planning on expanding into bigger and better farming back then and probably should have gotten bigger. BUT....... things happen for a reason and seems to have worked out for you. Love the BX and if your getting older, as I am (55), this will help you do projects you would have had to pay someone to do, done. No matter what you buy, do your research, price shop, read the reviews and enjoy your next tractor! Every man should own one!
