Chopping our first load of green feed in 2020!

[@bluepower_4life703]

Like all the videos. Good wholesome farm life. Reminds me growing up on a small dairy farm.

[@jamesbuck3818]

OOOH... Lois reminds me of 'ol #16 aka "Silver Ghost"... aaah she Lives on!

[@farmingtides7184]

God bless you through these tough times

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Thank you for your kind words. God bless you as well

[@FURY-hn3kw]

Reminds me when I used to chop with my dad on the farm.

[@porterisaacson415]

I love the intro video! It always makes me laugh! I have a international 560 with a pull type sickle mower and love it! I love you guys helping on the farm! I really like how you load the wagon! One step easier to feeding the cows!

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Haha that intro shot was a slim chance! Just earlier that day I thought about something I could put at the start of my videos and the very same day I was able to get a great one on my first try!

[@porterisaacson415]

Keith Fink I don’t know how you did it but the best one I’ve ever seen

[@porterisaacson415]

Also where do you farm at? I love the old machinery

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

We are in south-central Wisconsin, west of Fort Atkinson

[@marknasatka1891]

You need to do a video on replacing the bearing. Beginning to end. Purchasing of the bearing, prep, actual installation. How it all worked out and issues encountered. Be straight forward, show the good, the bad and the ugly. Love your channel. Good luck.

[@hankfink5412]

Dad and Wilson filmed one a couple of days ago. I'm finishing editing it right now!

[@railroadman57]

Great video I enjoyed it very much thank you for posting it .

[@robertguidry4577]

Very good, enjoyed the video

[@bogdonkey2858]

Great video!!

[@matthewjohnson3910]

Good video 👍

[@joenemeth6072]

Enjoyed the video, sweet tractor! Good luck with the seat!

[@AaricHale]

I remember my grandpa wearing out seats on his 656 . Those choppers are pretty cool . I would like to have one just to get mulch for the garden .

[@stebebam9444]

That reminded me of on the farm thank you

[@dazb7197]

I love this channel. ..I just the way the fink family farm. ..all the best folks

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

We appreciate your kind words. Thanks for watching!

[@Queenie_78]

Awesome video. Hope Lois enjoys the sun. Get Dad a old time metal seat. 🐮

[@tylersharp5345]

And I would love to see you use that yellow trailer Or I would just love to know what it is and what you use it for

[@rogercarrico4975]

I never minded those limbs in the face. Untill I started wearing glasses. That's when the real fun starts😜

[@jaykettlewell3922]

I know a guy who had a 460 he went to a junk yard and got a bucket seat out of a car and mounted it. Looked strange but he said it was very comfortable

[@ColKorn1965]

I accidentally ran over my 544's seat while testing out a hydraulic repair. I got an old metal seat and welded up a bracket for it. I painted it IHC Red so nobody could tell it wasn't "factory" 🙄

[@BRI33NOR]

Hope you get your new seat !. Why not just mention it, maybe some nice seat manufacturer will have a spare one ?

[@bertbright4276]

I am shopping around for a flail. Can you adjust the cutting length

[@heirimuller5717]

Sehr gutes Video

[@billz410]

Is there a significant benefit to feeding the cows a little fresh green chop in the evening as opposed to just letting them wander the pasture and eat grass?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

We make the greenchop available to them, in the pasture, after the evening milking. My thought process on that is to make it easy for them to fill their guts before dark. The idea being it's easier for them to fill at the wagon as opposed to eating off the pasture in the dark. Just doing what I can to keep milk production at acceptable levels. Wandering around out in the pasture already uses more of their energy as opposed to when they are standing in the barn in the winter. The energy used to walk the pasture is energy not available for milk production. So making it easier for them to fill their gut before dark is what I'm trying to accomplish. During the day they wander the pasture and graze. They usually fill by mid-morning, and then spend the rest of the day laying down, processing the food and making milk. Keith-

[@billz410]

Keith Fink Sure- that makes good sense. I grew up on a wheat farm in ND, so don’t know a lot about the dairy side. Sure enjoy the videos, though.

[@Joey966]

Wasnt that the recliner option?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

😂😂

[@tylersharp5345]

What is that yellow trailer in the background

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

It is officially known as a Knight Power Wagon. Basically a barge box with an apron on the floor for unloading out the back. Probably new in the mid 1960s. We use it for hauling corn silage from a neighboring farm.

[@jeffpeterson4978]

Keith take that seat off, get a new seat and slide a 1066 or 1086 underneath it.

[@ahmeddakoud2649]

Nice video with green grass lacking a 360 degree camera if possible

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Glad you liked it! A 360 camera would be interesting to have! You can do some crazy stuff with them!

[@ahmeddakoud2649]

@@KeithFinkFamilyFarm nice nice nice good

[@randytowery770]

Maybe some side boards on an angle would help? Just a thought. I miss riding the fender with my dad driving! I know alot of ppl are like safety safety and yes it is dangerous but that is part of life on a farm!

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

I agree!

[@noelcahill6707]

Do ye not have zero grazers in america

[@georgegohr1767]

Another great video, keep them coming. god bless

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Thanks, George! God bless

[@kenrichardson4144]

Spent many hours riding a fender! Good luck with your seat, it's still better than the fender! Great video! Thanks for sharing❗❗❗ 🙂🙂🙂 👍👍👍

[@jeremypeters8021]

Why run with the torque back?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Ground speed to fast for torque forward

[@jeremypeters8021]

I was assuming it must’ve been something along those lines.

[@Gumneck8n]

I could send you the broken seat off my JD 4010 to go with your JD hat. Its not as broken as your seat !!!

[@samziwicki9217]

How many cows do you milk?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

Usually always between 40 and 50. Currently, it's closer to 40. Keith-

[@joeyeckert6518]

What kinda chopper is that?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

New Holland 36 flail chopper

[@nitacrawford6706]

I am new to the channel. Where are you located and what do you do on this channel?

[@KeithFinkFamilyFarm]

We are in south-central Wisconsin. We do dairy farming vlogs, machinery videos (like this one), some chicken videos, and sometimes a few drone films. Thanks for stopping by!

[@danvanhoose6783]

A kid in my sons class fell off a tractor fender into a bush hog.real dangerous practice.

[@bluepower_4life703]

Not really if your responsible with it.Rode fenders for years not one issue.

[@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups]

Same here, I'm 13, been riding fender since 6 and no problems because I new the dangers and didn't goof off...and since I did it so often...for extra saftey to make my mom happy, we just bent some tube and mounted it on the fender (well this was on a backhoe and it was my grandpa's tractor at the time) and it made a seat rest as well as a place to hold onto....all in all it really isn't "dangerous" if you responsible and paying attention/no what your doing

[@d-4073]

@@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups It is still dangerous, yeah you can go years without falling off but 1 time and you could be crippled or dead.
