Good morning from Indiana USA thanks for stopping by

[@hartungdairyfarm0713]

Shoveling ear corn, always a good time lol. Those little giant conveyors sure are handy👍

[@knappfarms]

It definitely saves a lot of work just wish it was longer lol

Rustys getting big

[@knappfarms]

Yeah he is when I come up in the drive after dark it’s hard to tell him and sissy apart now

[@onealfarms9967]

I’m building a corn crib next week and seeing ideas on how other cribs are made like yours with the corn conveyor in the bottom got a good idea on how to make it

[@knappfarms]

The spot for a conveyor is definitely a must otherwise you will be shoveling all year definitely makes life easier

[@Lightning613]

A slanted floor toward the conveyor will save some extra shoveling. Allows to use a corn rake to pull it into the conveyor.

[@knappfarms]

With our crib only being about 8 foot wide 95% of the corn would go in without the slant floor if we had the conveyor all the way under with just a corn fork to knock it down but if you have the capability to slant the floors to the center it’s not a bad idea

[@keithgreene2469]

Don’t think I had that much energy even when I was 22 !!

[@knappfarms]

If it helps I was only 21 when I filmed that 😂

[@mgtpa4]

Expected to see some mice and rats running around in the corn crib......How did you eliminate them....??

[@knappfarms]

There where some mice when you get right up against the wall can’t get them all but luckily we just don’t have rats in our area no clue why

[@ashleythompson5550]

Yall in bad need of sum 86 series hoods

[@knappfarms]

We have all of them just seems like every time we put them back on we are pulling them back off to fix something that breaks

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

Always the hottest days when you have to shovel in a bin. Nice belt flinging 👍🤪😵🤣😂

[@knappfarms]

Always the hottest day

[@GosselinFarmsEdGosselin]

@@knappfarms yup... Like buying the old 💩 grain from a friend and having to get his bin cleaned out in August, during a heat wave..

[@knappfarms]

I’ll take a pass on that one 😂 grandpa has only ever had one grain bin and I remember cleaning it out every year before harvest and it leaked every year why he filled it idk but it was always 90 moldy and we had to shovel all the grain to the door sense it it have a sweep

[@fredf3391]

One thing wrong with this video . Need the boy's from dirt grain and steel to help with the shoveling Oh we can't forget Wilson

[@knappfarms]

Lol we will have to rope them into it because he just got a grinder and wants cattle so we will play it off like we are showing them what to do.

[@keithrobinson1331]

Man Iam not getting any notifications 😡

[@ArmpitStudios]

Love the feed grinding videos. I take it the floor conveyer doesn’t extend all the way under those boards, so you can’t remove the boards to create a shorter shoveling distance once you start getting farther back? Aww, Rusty!

[@knappfarms]

Lol nope that’s all the further it goes under at one time there was an elevator all the way but grandpa broke that before my time and rather then fix it he sent it down the road to the scrape yard
