...MAKIN' HAY WHEN THE SUN SHINES...LOL..GOOD ONE, KEEP SAFE

[@keithkuckler2551]

The more I look at Ellie, I am convinced that she has some corgi blood in her. Her head and large ears, seem to fit, and, of course she is a herder. The corgi is one of the oldest breeds, and, were raised and bred to herd livestock in Wales. I have seen them herd big Holstein cows and they can do the job, their short legs keep the out of the range when a cow kicks, just like a blue heeler they will also try to herd their humans if given the chance, more than once i have felt a nip on my heels if I do not walk fast enough. I hate to say it, but, Ellie is one of my favorite things about your channel.

[@donnakytle6595]

We raised 2 Corgis. They are awesome dogs.They passed awayThey were 15 years old.

That was a lot of hay good crop. Brian is so good on his guess that was the perfect. Hope the meat was good it looks good.

[@alanatolstad4824]

I'll be off-line a few days, Mom's getting a new heart valve. So I was hoping to catch you before I logged off. Valley City has a summer celebration every year...Rally in the Valley! The historic society museum films the parade and I watch it. This year, there was a HUGE John Deere tractor, ran on tank treads! I was breathless for a couple of blinks...what is he farming that he needs such a beast! Also, 2 humungous tow trucks, likely could haul missile parts, or wind turbine components!---Happy to see the cutting. I'll be back mid-week.

[@SonneFarms]

Praying for safety and quick healing!

[@rdyardie]

You brought back memories. My first job on my grandpa's farm when I was 11 years old was flipping wheat swaths over with a rake so they would dry faster. I was driving a Massey-Harris 44 with a Chrysler flat head six. Imagine. . . . those were the good ole days. 😊

[@ileenmcminn2062]

I racked with a ford 8n.

[@mikeoneil2281]

i raked with a ford jubilee and baled with a ford 4000 a new holland bailer and hand stacked wagons man those were the good old day wait now that i think of it hot sweaty long days

I raked with a big stick and metal fork things on the end of it. No bails necessary ;)

[@brimac58]

I enjoy the Father and Son dynamics between you guys. I lost my son Brian 9 years ago, it’s comforting to see your healthy relationship. God Bless!

[@kopenhagenkid]

Good luck raking your hay Cole

[@jeanvandevender1175]

Nice looking hay bales Brian

[@scotnewberry734]

Cole, you gotta wear the toque this weekend, gonna be 100 degrees, us Canadians would love it.

[@drdulas5055]

I think your next project is to build an attachment to put on your three point Cole.. A pintle hitch on the three point and a pintle loop attachment on your round bale hauler. Save you time of hooking up and unhooking. I have seen them with like a garage spring attached to the tongue of the trailer to keep it off the ground. Just an idea to save you time when the rain is coming.

[@coreyvandyke528]

flat tire Farms is at it again and listen while we're on the subject I'm a single man truck driver and this is one of the few entertainments I thoroughly enjoy cuz I've been in the cattle business most of my life hauling them chasing them getting kicked by him getting s*** on by them and all the above other complaints so if you could stretch these videos out maybe to 30 minutes or so you would make an old fat truck driver very happy thank you in advance have a wonderful day and I hope your hated mold

thanks Billy

[@chrismcclendon6829]

Cole--I have a rake like yours.--You can switch sides with those wheels left to righ and right to left. That will bend those teeth the back straight. Also you have to replace those broken teeth to keep from breaking the one next to it. Sooner or later you have to replace the wheels.

[@ryanwaege7251]

👉👉 Good to see Brain & Cole at work in the field. Grilling some MEATS myself tonight!

[@harrybutler1828]

Great job guys. Let the rains come.

[@46rambo49]

keep a box end wrench in your tractor , slip it over the bent tine and use it to straighten the tines when they do the twisty thang

[@dalegereaux1863]

That triple baler is the coolest thing. I'm pretty sure it operates by magic.

[@CurrentChoices]

busy bale elves!

[@peteschiavoni]

I’m so glad you are doing better on bales than last year and I pray it continues to get even better. Dinner looks good. Love meat on grill!!!!

[@baabaa8446]

I loved helping my Grandpap make hay in the summer. It was the small bales that we had to heave onto the wagons on the hilly Pennsylvania hay fields. Always a little risky with the poor brakes on the old army jeep that pulled the wagon. Would head in for lunch by Grandma. I fondly remember the new potatoes and iced tea with lemon blend. Thanks for bringing back those fond memories. Ps. He raised black angus. ❤️

[@briansonne814]

thank you as well!

[@gabewilliams5993]

There’s is no better feeling than cracking a Busch light simultaneously as copperhead road starts playing

[@jessespradlin123]

First it was a giant bird bomb splattered all over the back window of the tractor and this time I couldn’t quit staring at the weed hanging from the spider web in the back window of the tractor. For my sanity I’m begging you to look at the tractor window once in a while 😂

[@briansonne814]

lol i doubt it

A good feeling to count up the bales from a crop you worried about earlier this year. Happy for Sonne Farms. 😄

Excellent choice in music Bryan Cole ,ain't nothing wrong with the fragrance of nature and as far as cow's sneezing on you, when I was a kid on my uncle's farm, there was a dairy cow my uncle favourite. She was oldest in the herd, she would follow me up the road in the evening for milking, licking the back of my head.

[@pauljstod8804]

You guys are great 👍 love seeing Father and son working hard together, it’s a special thing, keep up the great work 🤠 ✊

I enjoyed seeing Brian and uncle Jeff working together, definitely need more of that! Can you imagine the banter and tricks Brian would do to him like when they were young! Or even just a proper chit chat with the 2 of them reminiscing over old times, Brian has so many did I ever tell you the time stories I’m sure Jeff would have some too!!

[@marycombs3574]

My grandpa got us a big tractor tube back in the early 90s to play with, we would tuck inside it and roll down the hill in the yard, yes we got hurt but it was always a good day when he would drag that thing out of the shed, finally it broke in about the same place as your tube.

[@JakeFlash]

Awesome camera work with those bales.

[@lh8802]

Great video 👍😁👍

[@Dan-qy1rg]

I do like the accumulator on your baler, looks like it really helps reduce your travel time on loading. Nice to hear that you got a reasonable amount of hay. I liked this one, Brian did good explaining the net wrap replacement, threading and wrapping. Well thanks for sharing, oh and Ellie is so cute, have a great rest of week.👨‍🌾

[@jongilbertson2403]

You need to put a quick hitch on the bale wagon. Will be able to unhook it from cab and hook it up without getting out of tractor.

Y'all stay cool in this horrid heatwave, and Cole, there's a new invention called sunscreen for your first shorts of the summer and a long day in the field. That's a grandma talking-to.

[@eugenespreutels8305]

Yep, that's my life right there. Raking hay in the morning, hauling and stacking bales all afternoon. We put up around 2000 5x6 bales every year in 5 big hay barns, makes for a busy summer. You're right about the clutch leg getting a workout, lol.

[@SonneFarms]

That is awesome!

[@BLUETERRIER7]

Baling and Copperhead Road ….sweet👌👍

[@localcrew]

I’ve been to Universal Studios with my gf plenty of times. I thought I was at the “Shrek” movie getting sneezed on. Turns out I was sitting outside on a park bench and a seagull took a dump on my face. Still, a magical sensory experience. 👍 Time to replace those tires on that bale toter. They carry lots of weight.

[@richardsnyder9271]

Nice that your getting some hay this year. Love the smell of fresh cut hay. Just got our first cutting done here in NW Ohio.

Getter done son. That baler is pretty handy

[@richardoyster1295]

This sure brought back memories. It would have been nice to have a round baler, but I don't think that they had been invented yet! LOL Three BIG barns full of square bales, plus 6 big hay wagons full. Lots of work for sure! Can't remember how many acres of hay, but sometimes it felt like it would never get done. Keep safe in all the heat.

[@Husker3435]

Much better than last year 👍🏻whew what a difference happy to see the hay crop booming guys🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@williammerry4746]

Now we know, Cole is a man so he can go ahead with marriage plans. Great work getting the hay in. Father and son and then Jeff....you guys are great.

[@vickiemeisinger9632]

This was an enjoyable video watching you guys bailed out here and move it back to the farm!! It sure makes a difference when you’ve got the right equipment and I couldn’t help but think about how my dad bailed hey and how hard we had to work not having the right equipment… And I know you guys are working hard to it’s not necessarily any easier it’s just different… We had the old fashion hey Baylor with the twine and we had to go along the roads and pick up the bales and throw them up on the wagon ,,,We did have an auger that would put it up into the Haymount and then we would have someone up there stacking the bales the way dad one of them which was very particular and so was my grandpa, but it was fun & an exciting time!! Just like you guys as you were coming in from the field, a true sense of accomplishment… Regardless of whether you had all that you wanted or the best crop, it was a job well done😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ I couldn’t help but admire the rack you had for those big round bales to carry all of those bales back to the farm. Boy that would’ve been handy back in the days when I was growing up and your Dad, Brian was growing up!! I’ll have to look up on the Internet how many bills you can put on that rack. You guys got a lot done in a days time and I’m real proud of you both❣️❣️ I pray you get the rain you’re needing so badly. Nobody likes to see a drought summer and hits really hard besides the heat for all of us no matter where we live. Call I’m like you I have really grown to love the rain and respect it in an entirely new way then when I was even your age!! It is just so delightful to hear the rain coming down whether it is soft and gentle or with a vengeance and w/ the wind at the same time… there is just something very powerful about rain… I guess because so much of our livelihood depends on it. You guys have a great weekend and stay cool. Thanks for the humor you provide for me and I really, really appreciate these wonderful videos you make for us all❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️🌈

[@kimberlyfojtik3468]

Excellent choice “COPPERHEAD ROAD”.

[@diggerdave.6587]

Hayyyy guys. Hay season is one of the most stressful times but also massively important. we used to chop our alfa and store it in the pit, second cut we would small bale it. Copperhead road is one of my karaoke favourites Brian, such a powerful and meaningful song. Cole, that was a great edit where you spiked the bale and when you pulled out it was loaded. Stay safe guys, in the words of the great man..Danger dont take a day off.

[@JohnMichael0226]

You should put a camera shot of your footwork while collecting bales in the tractor. For us city folk, I know I’d be interested in seeing how it works with a tractor! The multiple pedals is interesting.
