I found your channel while doing some research on chickens in New England, but was very disappointed to find you hadn’t posted any more videos. I live in rural Maine, and would love any advice you might have on raising and keeping chickens, especially through the winter months. I hope you are still doing well on your homesteading journey.

That stump was not 5 inches above ground. You should always be careful when running over stumps. I take my chainsaw and cut trees down so the stumps are not sharp or stick out more than few inches above ground. Use some sort garden tool to clean up dirt around the tree to cut it down low as possible. Once you saw oil leak you should have shut off machine immediately

Usually when putting up the wire you come to a dead end and you hook your gate handles also to an insulated end so the electric current doesn't go in circles, as it will eventually lead to draining your battery and rusting out your ground wire. hope this helps

It's not an "off road tractor" A Timber Jack is an off road tractor. The tree winch is designed to use the tractor PTO from a road or a trail, that's why there's so much cable in the winch. I feel for ya, I've been there and done similar things, sometimes it hurts to learn.

You're lucky you didn't bend the bar as well. Cut stumps low (ground level) if you're going to use a tractor in the woods.

These farm tractors are designed for field work. Heading out to the wood is a whole new ball game. Best to have a trail for the tractor and stick to it. Most likely there are other components and hoses that can be damaged from sticks and stumps. Also valve stems are vulnerable to damage. You can gaurd the tractor for woods work but a clean defined trail works best. All farm tractors are the same. Cut the stumps low and use winch to push off the brush. This is a great way to harvest wood.

If they would have made that spin on filter go on horizontal that would give you more clearance. Right? Could they have done that? Is there enough room for that?
@marknussbaum8394
@marknussbaum8394 2 жыл бұрын
You were operating the tractor outside of it's intended use, you saw oil spraying but you kept working until the tractor wouldn't go, then you shut it off and later started it yet again, and your conclusion is that the tractor has a design flaw? Seriously?

This reminds me of an incident in the 80's when my uncle, my grandfathers son-in-law all by himself took out 3 of the four tractors that we used on the farm. He decided to go up into the woods with the JD 4010 and tow out some logs, he coasted on out of the woods with a chain full of logs, and then crossed a ditch snapping the front wheels off the 4010, then he went and got the AC 5040 and tried to tow the 4010 out of the ditch, before he burned the clutch up he also dismounted a rear tire and destroyed the sheet metal on the right side of tractor. He got discouraged for a few hours and decided to go back and burn up the starter on the 5040, which he did by jump starting it with the 6 volt AC 3 wheel 1940's tractor that we used to just tow a trailer around. He burned up the entire charging system on that old 6 volt, but not before burning up the starter on the 5040 because he didn't know that he ran the tank empty and the tractor wouldn't start,...so he just kept a crankin'. Needless to say, when my grandfather got home from his full time job on second shift he came home to a disaster,......and it was all design flaws,..no operator error at all,....(if you ask my uncle). Who by the way was NEVER allowed near another piece of equipment again...EVER!!!

I've heard that small square mesh wire is the only way to go if you have the possibility of rats or weasels.I sure hope it works out for these chickens, but have heard many sad stories of preditors climbing through, around up +under without sturdy strung mesh wiring with lots of thick wooden +/ or metal support stakes. Ever see a wolf or coyote climb a high fence to carry chickens right over the top? Unbelievable if you haven't seen them do it. Google it +it'll creep you out, guaranteed. Then of course there are those that skirt around the "no mesh wire skirt " , if you leave for even an hour out of sight - underneath the entire run +coop, the poor chickies are vunerable to attack. Coons can be a force to be reckoned with, as well as skunks + an occasional bear. Coops should be very solid (bearproof) with wiremesh ventilation + complicated locks that coons can't fiddle +fidget with until they accidentally open. Do your best , but don't be shocked if you find your flock ripped to catlitter when you think you haven't missed one tiny hole that a preditor could breech. It's one of the most heart wrenching moments you will ever experience to come upon the murder scene of chickens you thought were safe .
