Claas Quadrant 5300RC Big Square Baler

Doug shows us their Claas Quadrant 5300 RC Large Square Baler at Maybury Farms

[@Mainly-boy-outdoors]

Thank you Doug for letting Andy ride with you and film/video!!

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Nice Gent to show us the Claas bailer. New York has some very beautiful farms. Thanks Andy.

[@robboud5751]

Those would most likely be Osprey nests. We have a lot of them here as well in Nova Scotia.

[@pennyhaldeman5626]

I really do enjoy when you take us on truck rides, your part of the world is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@martinboilard2265]

Hi Andy ! i enjoy watching you trucking and talking. Thanks Andy for your time and have a good day bud !

[@jackthewisedog5171]

Thanks Alex and Doug for the look at the baler. It is a real nice baler and they have the right colour tractor pulling it 😆

[@peteschiavoni]

Thank you Andy and Doug for showing us your baler. I’m always grateful when all you hard working gentlemen take your time to show us what y’all do!!

[@charleslynch7274]

That was really kool to see that guys baling operation thanks for bringing us along Andy

[@x_Dude1]

Looks like stork nests at the start - That Claas baler makes solid bales.

[@philrogers8160]

I can remember when the show was at different locations every year. I loved when they made that location permanent. I am sad that it moved to Lafayette .

[@jimclary7309]

Thank you Andy and Doug for the ride long. Always enjoy setting back watching your videos. Awesome scenery! Definitely look you up at the next one. You all stay safe!!

[@JanzaibGujjar-ot9hq]

[@robertlusnia506]

Awesome video

[@280813jb]

Really smooth running baler, there doesn't appear to be any chug chug every time the plunger compresses the hay.

[@steveb6103]

Watch out for the storm that's heading your way! Came through here last night with 65mph winds. It goes from Hudson's Bay to Kentucky.

[@johngraham1875]

I remember back in the early 90s farm days being at Lott farms in Seneca Falls. I went to show in Pompey this year, ehhh she ain't what she use to be

[@mcd5082]

What an incredible machine! Thanks for sharing Andy and Doug!

[@tommeyer4507]

Andy, Yeah I think they’re osprey nest we had one on top of our grain Leg. They like man made structures. They will come back every year to nest.

[@steves.7872]

Outstanding video, Andy really enjoyed that one, thank you so much.

[@williammurphy1592]

Thanks for the tour Sir

[@frandupuis5889]

That was a very interesting video Andy. Thanks for posting it for us!

[@leepatton1180]

I really enjoy seeing the beautiful country side thanks for the video

[@lesterhertel2945]

Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊

[@geesss8675]

Looks like Andy's getting a new baler or two!

[@marhuf]

Thanks for the ride along Andy. .

[@tomthompson489]

Thanks for the ride Andy pretty country

[@stanleyjones4180]

Enjoyed the ride along Andy great countryside around there. That was a nice Class baler thanks for the video Andy.

[@hayman1971]

Having the name Doug he must be super cool!!! 👍😁

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

True that for sure

[@stuarttyson786]

Beautiful country and well maintained roads on your trip

[@randy6650]

Enjoyed watching the video Añdy 😊

[@Mainly-boy-outdoors]

Nice looking case claas!!

[@dhoop688]

I grew up over that way. Nice to see it ty

[@markdowney1786]

They are a fantastic baler we had one on demo a few weeks ago and the boss has ordered one for next year

[@scrotiemcboogerballs1981]

Awesome video thanks for sharing

[@jimcivitello3913]

Great video Andy thanks for sharing, that claas looks like a nice unit. I was up to farm show this year wasn't like it was when it was out there. Thought about trying to get ahold of you for a tour but figured you guys are way too busy and didn't want to be a bother.

[@nickbeer2658]

That baler is a beast!

[@jimpolk]

That baler looks cool.

[@John-jg5dh]

You look good in that red machine Andy!

[@geesss8675]

What a wonderfully kind man Doug is

[@patrickerger7271]

That was very interesting Andy.

[@user-gi5yk2gr5f]

Great video thanks 😊👍🚜

[@jrneff9773]

ole hell andy got the ford fever now he going to get case fever omg

[@mdutchy2582]

I grew up on a dairy farm in Adams. This is how remember it looking up there.

[@33sixpack]

Its mind blowing to think about the science and technology that goes into hay and silage production today and to Agriculture in whole. Thank you farmers everywhere!

[@raycollington4310]

The baler was very impressive and Doug seemed like a nice gentleman. That tractor being half track and half wheels seemed a bit odd. Thanks Andy, good video.

[@centexan]

I see two upsides to square bales vs round. Bales are ejected without having to stop. They stack better with no wasted space in a barn. Maybe three if twine is much cheaper than net or plastic wrap. On the other hand, one round bale holds a lot more hay and can stand up better to being stored outdoors.

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

Andy, Doug's advice is good! I have owned a closs 240 roller type round baler for about 15 years we do about 400 bales a year for our our beef herd it is probably the most trouble free piece of equipment on this farm. Definitely would s his notion that you at least ought to look into one when it comes time to trade up

[@gwbuilder5779]

Pretty impressive baler. I suppose you would just run it with no knives and continue with the chopper same as you do now. Heard about a farmer who recently got crush by a stack of high density bales couple weeks ago I think. Didn't hear exactly what happened, but one of the daughters thought perhaps he back into the stack or the tractor malfunctioned. The benefits of the larger bales certainly make a huge difference in storage space as well as longevity of the bales, but I think it's important to remember the significance of weight and pressure those bales are under at all times. Of course we know you guys understand the dangers of high stacking anything, even facing the silage bunks is a big deal if a section lets go and a machine, person, or animal is near it. Interesting video Andy.👌🤙

[@michaelolenick4078]

I can't get over how fast he is baling that straw.

[@laurier3348]

Claus balers are the best, just like the Claus choppers. Nice.

[@ihguy2113]

good looking red tractor

[@404nitro]

Those are most likely osprey nests. There's a bunch of them in a very high radio tower just down the road from out house.

[@glenglessman2093]

that baler must have a bigger flywheel because lt is sure smooth

[@tonyjones9715]

Thanks Andy.

[@homey3051]

Thank you Andy

[@ronniejenkins4633]

Osprey nest more than likely, enjoyed the video.

[@Dermot501]

Thanks for the road trip🛣🚚Claas baler on order for next year Andy?😉

[@emerkamp1]

Always liked the way them planters worked too, I ran a smaller version for years. I Didn't care for the older monitor noises though,

[@harveystephens6115]

Nice bailer !

[@MagnumCamNZ]

Claas quadrant 5300 4x3 are one of the main balers here in New Zealand for balage and straw. Row trac on front abit of over kill.

[@mikemuniak4711]

They need to move farm days back to where it was

[@daleleeman9916]

The young out smarted the experience. lol

[@smoore960]

Parrot’s nest Andy. Or that’s what we have in Texas. Enjoy the tubes.

[@jimconnor8274]

Those kina look like osprey nest. Good thing he left the dust on that Red hood. Otherwise He'd have Your eyes bleeding Red! Thanks for the ride along through that beautiful area.

[@johndeere709]

I remember the farm show there.

[@desertdweller4951]

Who would have thought, behind that sweet smile, Sarah is quite a shifty character 😅 Got love those kids, huh Andy. You bought a Ford ( The Circle of Disappointment) so what's next a Claas😂

[@mannsjm]

Seems like it was just a short time ago that you were teaching Sara how to drive a truck, now she beats you to the mill.

[@patrickclement3243]

Osprey's are a type of eagle I believe so you were right!

[@adambixby7563]

They look like Osprey nests, we have a lot of them over here on Lake Champlain in the eastern part of the state

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

If you wouldn't have "pulled over" to send the text to Alex you might have gotten there ahead of Sara. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

True

[@ritchieblackmore5204]

Hi Andy, told you a while ago Sarah was smart, Andy did you enjoy riding in the best make of Tractor, maybe you might buy a CASE or two 🤣

[@bryanbailey3038]

Osprey nests. Lots of them here in Vermont too.

[@dhoop688]

Your in hooper territory andy. Dammit!!!

[@NonTypicalRacing]

Back when the NY Farm Days was on nice ground, not goat land? The other NY farmer Andy (Dennison) was "talking" about how lovely the new ground is. Lol

[@rickyticky574]

Those nests are Blue Herring nests, also Andy saying Sarah is behind him, Sarah saying first one back gets to run the Combine, 😆

[@brianchaney6753]

Looking forward to seeing that new baler. 😂😂😂lol

[@roba4297]

There didn't appear to be any re-action back thro' the transmission as the bale was being formed. What did you think of the red tractor with tracks ? Beautiful countryside you were driving through.

[@peanutsmith1462]

Andy does this dude have a KZbin channel thanks for sharing

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

No he doesn’t

[@Jrhorse_cattle]

That’s a 3x4 😂. And let’s talk about the row-trac 🤤

[@markreetz1001]

Thanks for the ride-along. You didn't get a rash or develop a breathing issue riding in the Red tractor, did you? I knew you could do it!! It's generally safe for a JD guy to ride in a C-IH as long as he doesn't try to talk down the C-IH and talk up the JD. That could be hazardous. I know you're not like that--at least not really!

[@davidholder3207]

Red and Green are never seen - old wives tale.

[@Adam_Poirier]

Doug is pretty good like you are Andy, I think he should start a KZbin channel too

[@steveharrington301]

👍

[@grantburnett]

I guess you better give Sarah more pay she knows how to save time.

[@timgear9892]

You'd better not let Jared ride in that red tractor, or you will end up owning one. That cab was quiet and smooth riding. Sure makes hay baling easy.

[@briansessler1573]

Empire farm days. Lol 😂

[@robertvetter6139]

Hey Andy…What does Mayberry do with the wheat?

[@lgl_137noname6]

11:23 Andy, do you guys use the wheat as feed ? If so , what percentage of the daily mix is it ?

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

No we don’t

[@noelhohberger1188]

Better get Wes to watch this one

[@Adam_Poirier]

So whata you think would you buy one? I've never looked closely at a claas big square up close it's all case in my area. thing looks like a serious unit though huh

[@dennislamers986]

Interesting the many type of harvesting. I would like to see the stripper head.

[@jong7641]

1100 lb straw bale. What does a hay bale weigh? And can your front loader still pick up two bales like you do now?

[@bradanderson1627]

The bird you’re thinking is an osprey

[@e.a.bfarms]

How do you think the tracks rode on that tractor? Looked smooth. .

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Seemed alright

[@TaylorAkins]

@@FarmingFixingFabricating Hawks nest

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

It's still a type of green 😅

[@markrobinson9154]

osprey!

[@Omc-Steelbone]

Do you assign drivers to one piece of equipment? I always tried to ensure the young bucks stay in the old equipment and the better drivers in the better gear.

[@FarmingFixingFabricating]

Usually

[@robertquast9684]

We usually put inexperienced operators in equipment where they are less likely to have problems. A bigger tractor or a power shift is going to be less likely to spin out or give grief

[@daleolson3506]

Make a slide so the bales don’t fall.

[@christisking7778]

Maybe Andy could do a fishing video..

[@shawntilley8862]

must have rushed him andy, went baling with no fuel

[@robertfunk6304]

Osprey nest. They will be leaving soon to South America for the winter
