As I’ve said before, I used to go in about many dairy farms delivering hay, straw, feed etc and the amount of places that were knee deep in shite because they never scraped up between feeding out the pit etc. It only takes moments and a clean place is so much easier to keep clean and a pleasure to work on 👍. Like your style. 👍👍👍👍

[@j.clarke8685]

We had the Nugent version of your grab and got the local fabricator to cut it off the mast and weld on a set of loader brackets when we got the loader. Still going perfect after 7 years and the grab is about 20 years old. Great content, keep up the good work!

[@djh748]

Farming with Finesse I don’t like it but it was grant spec so had to put up with it, it doesn’t really cause much issues but there’s really no need for it to be there, building the calving pens closed in the yard and provided great shelter and comfort

I suggested to Gerry that you three pop over the water and call in for a coffee. 😄 I will look forward to what you chaps come up with. 👍 I know I bang on about skid steers Adrian, but see if you can get one on demo for a week, it will produce miracles around your yards, I would not be without mine.

[@martinoneill1644]

Nice camera work. Could you not chance leaving the cows out next month for a few hours or prefer April Incase you have to house again? You might do a video the first day you leave them out. Gerry and Phil could come and do your silage on the house lol.

[@IFarmWeFarm]

Martin O Neill if they did it on the house they be back every year 😂, i will definitely do a video on the cows getting up as is one on the best days on the farm, hopefully soon

The grab on the mast is a handy job now, didn’t think it would work so well but you’ve a right good method going

[@jameswhite3764]

Yup lad

[@Rmc456]

Not much wrong with that system of putting in silage. Massey must have some serious oil flow. You might be disappointed with a loader tractor unless it very high spec with ccls hydraulics

@@IFarmWeFarm that makes sense. She's still lovely

[@jackbarron1613]

I was just thinking if you have no front loader how do you clean out straw sheds like calfing pens and that

[@IFarmWeFarm]

jack barron we do all with the wheel barrow and bit of graft, I clean the calf sheds out every 3rd day and I don’t build out a heap of bedding under them, u’ll notice if you look through our video’s we have our calves on wooden pellets so there kept dry and don’t need so much bedding.

[@jackbarron1613]

ahh right that's a good idea about the pallets and everything else is on slats is it

[@IFarmWeFarm]

jack barron yes all on slats so very little bedding used really

[@jackbarron1613]

that's handy all our new sheds are slats but the older ones are straw we use about 120 round bales of straw every winter but slats are alot handier

[@patrickodonnell9838]

Maybe Gerry will purchase a decent tractor 😁 clean massey. Would ye be interested in doing a video on cow health ie dosing/vaccination and breeding. Contrasting between the Diary and Suckler farmer. Thanks Paddy new subscriber.

[@michaelsantos3916]

how many days does silage last for cows?

[@killianbergin9224]

Do u milk your cows or are they dry cows been fattened for the factory

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

Maybe work on each others farms for a day? Change of scenery 😀 I would recommend a claas tractor for loader work very fast hydraulics well thought out design, brilliant visibility, gears are on loader joystick, full powershift transmission, I have drove a claas arion 430 and she would pull a house down for you if youd give her the chance handles a 1600 gallon slurry tanker like it's not even behind her,, a new holland would also be another recommendation, cheaper, reliable, very good power, and a powershift transmission, both have very good power to weight ratio and both have electro hydraulic clutches so there would be hardly any wear on the clutch with the loader work, recommend class arion 430-460, 510-530, 610 all around 100-130 hp. New holland T5070, t6030-t6050, TS125A, all would be around the 115-150hp mark and alot already have loaders fitted, you could have a look at some on donedeal I think I have seen some in Clarkes of Cavan I think they're called but I could be wrong on that Let me know what you think and keep her lit lad 🤙

[@IFarmWeFarm]

If shes not blue she'll not do world of information there, thanks for that. Claas tractors have improved a lot over the years and are getting very popular as a result, be very hard to get me away from Massey’s though but never say never 👍

I worked with a man that ran a loader tractor it was going poor he said he would fix it I said buy a telehandler he said he would not have enough work for it boy was he wrong it goes every day now from around the yard to field work and it frees up his main tractor for field work while I worked around the yard with the loader

[@tommyk86]

great video! you didnt ask for my opinion but you are going to get it anyway :) if you are going to buy a tractor with a front loader make sure to check the front axel,you wouldnt be long putting two grand into an axel and not doing much with it,id rather spend the money on a loader and fit it to one of your own tractors rather than buying an unknown quantityfront loaders are hard on axels and transmissions/clutches so unless you get a warranty or know the person your buying off id rather fit a loader to what i have.if your buying brand new thats a different story but its up to you.

[@FrisianFront]

i wouldn't sell an tractor, buy an med wheel loader of roughly 6/7 tons, they are not that expensive when slightly used, and lift a ton more, plus they are more maneuverable. got an 6.5 ton venieri at home lifts up to 2,5 ton. use it mainly for loading the mixer wagon and cleaning out the feedroad.. fuel it up once in the 2 weeks with around 50 liter.

Gear stick was stiffer than a pigs arse the loader had 3/8’s pipes on it so I fell asleep puttin it up then slept while it wis comin doon the 3 point was as slow as a 90 year old climbing stairs when the valve was wide open and best of all the loader stick was to close to the console that it hit the gear stuck when it wis in 1st😂
