Back to work on the pasture Fence I broke the tractor, but it works how I want it to.

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

Great job hanging your gate Evan

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

Good luck building your fence

[@deehooper1025]

You’ve mastered the gate installation for sure. Good for you!!

[@robertjerome1889]

Looks like a beautiful pasture..

[@leolarocque-v5v]

Thanks Evan like the video and Mya like you shes a baby .

[@cajunnathan4586]

Do the Safe Thing and put a snap on the gate chain to keep the livestock from getting out

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

Great video Evan

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

Hello 👋 to your wife Evan

[@winterhorse290]

That hydro top link is a dream. I don’t know how I did without it! Mya is a hoot! She reminds me of a big dog. And she really loves the camera.

[@davidedwards3734]

Great job hanging the 18 ft gate. A cable from hinge end, at the top of the post, to latch end will help prevent sagging. Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

[@cat441]

I appreciate when you talk as you are doing. Fence is looking good.

[@fullers1966]

My wife works at a hospital too lately she's been doing a lot of overtime people don't like coming into work

[@elainedegoede6276]

The fence and new gate looms great

[@RoBA7]

Thanks for this and the interaction with the animals. Great job Sir!😊

[@pampilgrim2274]

Hi, Evan! I enjoy your fence building videos. You do a great job!

[@PhyllisGentry-b8n]

Thankful you finally got some decent rain. That grass you planted a few weeks ago is looking good now! Everyone take care and be safe!

[@pegsheridan128]

when you took that piece off the detent I thought I saw a bearing fall inside the part you took off.

[@cjh3192]

Yes it did ... saw the same thing. Inside the cap he removed.

[@deannaoverstreet4146]

Thank for sharing! Really enjoyed your post! Fields are beautiful!

[@kathycrook1913]

Hi guys!

[@danadevost5875]

Great video, thanks for sharing this with us.

[@Ex-pomjohn]

I use the cage from an IBC tote to feed my sheep very effective reduces waste

[@mrclaus859]

Thanks for posting Evan

[@hschultz123]

Evan, maybe you should build a large fence line feeder for the cattle, and put up a cattle exclusion fence around the small fence line feeder so that the sheep can feed. After all in the future you will have 2-3 times as many cattle.

[@jimnaz5267]

WELL DONE !!!

[@davidj.mackinney6568]

Enjoyed the video.

[@DanaFoster-vl5os]

Great job

[@gl309495]

That 6 way driver you used to tighten up the hose connector has a nut driver that fits the hose clamp. Much easier than trying to keep the straight blade in the slot.

[@garystlaske7703]

Looking really good , always enjoy a new video..

[@kenshaum3994]

That is the way it is supposed to work

[@bt6195]

Your grass looks good....good for you two!

[@markrice3502]

great video evan thank you for sharing with us

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Thanks for sharing Evan, it's looking good around there and it's great you have more of the shop opened up again. I know that really makes you feel better and you'll be able to work during rainy weather. The fence and the gate went up really nice and looks great. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.

[@susandixon3970]

Awesome informative video…hope you find your Bering.

[@jeanniearnold7906]

I love your fences.

[@rare_wubbox360]

Great job! Inspired by you ive got myself a plasmacutter - its so helpful at the farm! Love my Esab👍

[@davidanderson2436]

Awesome - thanks for a great video, those connectors for the fence braces look like great little wasps future residence!

[@CountryViewAcres]

@davidanderson2436 yes, that is the only downside. They need to make caps or plugs to cover the ends of the pipe.

[@timadamany]

You need the Milwaukee Impact for drilling holes. I have almost broken my wrist several times with the Drill, but the Impact doesn't twist your hand off your wrist.

[@adventureswiththeoelkers]

Can also just clutch the drill so it won’t catch like that.

[@timadamany]

@adventureswiththeoelkers not on that drill.

[@johnzink3309]

Thx

[@chumucklafarm]

Wrap a 16' cattle panel or goat panel (4" squares) around the round role and that will let them eat without climbing on top. As the roll gets smaller, just overlap the ends. You can sit the roll out without the feeder.

[@PeterWenzel-yn7fn]

Waving a hand from texas

[@philipeyraud5316]

Evan put a cattle panel inside the cradle feeder. lets the sheep easily eat from it.

[@stuartgibson1896]

If possible grind up the silage bales. Try a feed lot panel in the bottom of the silver bale feeder to keep more in the feeder and less on the ground.

[@TribbleDude]

The best feeder I ever saw was a cage suspended about two feet off the ground. Animals could access all around and even that hay/silage falling underneath centre, the gap being too small to physically get underneath and spoil anything.

[@Tom-ru6rb]

For an 18' gate you should put a cable with turn buckle from top of hinge pole to bottom of gate on latch side to prevent eventual sagging of gate at latch end.

[@Tom-ru6rb]

PS: install cable on outside of paddock.

G'day from Australia 🇦🇺

[@graysonsfarminglifeaustral2778]

Thank evan

[@m9ovich785]

I was under that same rain system too... If that ball was High Grade Stainless the Magnet will not find it. Use a Metal detector away from the slab if You have Rebar in it.

[@stevengunter2843]

You are staying busy !!

[@eddiehardcastle1547]

Evan. Have you seen those rubber mats that they make out of old tires that you place around feeders. Ranching SoDak has them. His son hand makes them in South Dakota and ships them everywhere. That is what you need around that new feeder. 👍. Love all your videos.

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

You can drive a screw into the gate hole where the chain was removed. Paint it black first. Why is the gate 18 feet wide? What about the feed cradle flipped upside down.

[@_Rick_S]

I (unfortunately 😂) used to work in a burn shop, mostly running CNC plasma and burn tables and an older milling machine. When I drill smaller holes I'll use an impact with impact drill bits, it's so much better than using a regular drill. After I get a small pilot hole drilled I run a step bit in reverse to hog it out, that works great for thinner metal. For thicker metal once I get to the big bits over 1/2" or so I run them way slower than you were, and push a lot harder with the drill. Holes drilled on a Bridgeport type milling machine will have one long continuous spiral of metal if the speed and force are both correct, much much slower as the bit width increases. I might not even have the trigger fully pulled on your drills slowest speed for those big holes you drilled. If the speed and downforce on that milling machine were really dead on it would make spirals over a foot long 😂

[@richqualls5157]

Go out at night with a flashlight and do you search for the ball bearing. You should be able to find it.

[@CountryViewAcres]

@@richqualls5157 i found it. I got it put back together correctly. And adjusted the way I want it.

[@NancyBryantIdeas]

This is kind of funny, but just as you said that you are going to stop and go check on the livestock my alarm for evening chores went off. I got to run feed chickens.

[@terrycastor8299]

Pretty impressive hanging an 18 ft gate solo, Evan. Perhaps putting some stock panel pieces around the hydrant would prevent the stock from reaching through? Just need to be able to reach in there obviously. With the sheep feeding issue, maybe.they need their own feeder? Not ideal and running the cattle and sheep together maybe not practical. As far as the silage goes, maybe feed just one option at a time? Silage or hay but not both? Maybe they would clean both up faster? I noticed your chicken feeders are open topped. Don’t you have rodent or bird issues like that?

[@JakeGrubb-u7k]

I think I would chop the silage instead of billing it and the store. It would be a problem, but I think I would just chop it and feed it.

[@thomasgreene5750]

It might pay to bale the silage into smaller rounds. You might also think about getting a grinder and feed the silage in a trough. These changes might reduce the waste you are having.

[@davidwhite4474]

Ever thought about reference the manual or talking to the tractor shop where you bought the tractor ?

[@kevinwittstruck8764]

Hi Evan from Indiana

[@RichardLaeder]

It dropped into the cap when you pulled it off.

[@shakingbones1768]

You'll have more livestock to feed next year so the silage bale will go quicker. Otherwise maybe make smaller bales?

[@IreneWood-w4m]

Can you make the silage bales smaller next time so they don’t waste it?

[@gerard9128]

Even you need to use titaium Bits to cut that pipe looks like your useing reg type drill bits

[@TheBeerbelly007]

Flashlight at night and the ball bearing will stand out for you to see.

[@fullers1966]

You should not have to put it in detent to make it work all detent is is the keep the oil flowing for wood splitters or the backhoe

[@reginaghee3768]

The little ball fell into the piece you took off. I don't think it ever hit the ground.

[@N5XHIworkshop]

Could you have a special trap made for the feeder to keep the sheep out?

[@BridgetBatchelor-m1i]

Try using wax to fill that hole on the gate. Should keep the bugs out.

[@Gods-Elect]

or great stuff

[@KCAATV]

Have you thought about getting a Greg Judy round bale spreader?

[@johnQ-p1w]

It fell in the cap you took off

[@davidj.mackinney6568]

Have you hunted yet this year.

[@justingourley816]

Have you thought about feeding the wasted silage to your pigs?

[@martinwilson5770]

Separate the cattle and sheep, hay for sheep, silage for cows. They have too much choice, if there was only silage then they would eat it.

[@rancancookcanoy9768]

Evan, enjoyed your video. Glad you guys got some rain. Thank you for sharing your farm life with us.

[@d6joe]

Just how many gates to you have on your ranch?

[@fullers1966]

Did the ball fall inside the cap

[@kfsmpg]

just watch out with these newer computerized tractors, where everything is controlled by them, because they will lock you out, meaning you would have to call the mfg to come out and unlock them John Deere has been doing this for years and making tons of money. They are getting to the point where farmers can't work on their own equipment anymore. It's like buying a shirt that's dry-clean only; you will never stop paying for it.

[@cathiwim]

Dont feed the hay til the silage is gone?

[@shaygibson1976]

Can you tell me the dimensions of those pipes you’re using for the fencing. Where did you find such large quantity of them?

[@MotorsandMetals]

When drilling with larger drill bits turn ur speed down seen guys break their wrist before

[@dannygerrits1157]

2 or 3 cuttings? Maybe more like 4 or 5
