FEEDER MAINTENANCE, BALING 2ND CUT SILAGE

[@antonyfarming]

Glad the baler working good 👍 I was told to (if light crop) drive 10meter pickup on left then move over 10 metres on right and then 10 in middle keep doing that it gills camber evenly if you weave to fast it doesn't fill properly Great drone footage 👍

Fair dues Gerry, you are a great man about machinery. Super video

[@pjdoyle5105]

Well Gerry that baler was a great investment. And all the great tyres on all the tractors look so well. Keep it going.

[@paulf2529]

Great job, pleased your back uploading again too.

[@gerry6420]

Thanks paul 😊

[@aidanmunnelly769]

Gerry. Have been thinking of the issue from your last video. There will always be folks who try to bring us all down. Part of life, could have happened even if you were not on you tube. Jealousy is around us every day and can feel very personal when we are subjected to it. But you are on you tube and it’s all part of it. Do not stop. Keep goin. You have a huge amount to give. Never knew about the plumbin.

[@ralphrogers3433]

Great video as usual keep it up.

[@gerry6420]

Thanks Ralph

[@johndeere-jr9ci]

Would u consider a rake Gerry. Speed up the baling a lot and you would have a much better solid even bale. I used always bale of the mower until I bought a rake. There a great job. Good work done on the feeder. It pay’s to have your own equipment for repairs.

[@raymondrobinson8997]

I find the opposite....we get a better packed bale off a 10 foot sward as the Baler gets time to roll the thinner layers and therefore less air.....even a 20f row is too deep and full of air for the baler to take in and roll tight. Speed isn't the most important thing when baling in my opinion!!

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

@@raymondrobinson8997 speed is the most important thing - going slow is much better

Great work Gerry can’t beat the maintenance videos 👌🏻🙌🏻

great video gerry ,i get my contractor to group all my rows grass ,im not a big fan of the raker, if ground sticky it spits lot droplets of muck on the the rows,,,he cuts with 10 ft krone so it puts 20 ft in one swathe when grouper is used,,,,

[@casto-]

Steady on mate, making all that noise! You'll be getting into trouble again!😂🙈. I do like those little jobs, they make such a difference when your working 😊. Glad the baler is still going strong, starting to think of an upgrade for my 550🙈 it's just the £££s

Nice work Gerry.....sun is still in short supply!🙆‍♂️🙈

[@mikeysky8917]

We purchased a Redrock 14M3 Tub feeder for a second farm as the one there had its day and we panicked. So many flaws. Expected so much better from Redrock since their other stuff is Fantastic. We purchased at a worse time as no dealers kept any new ones in stock only the Redrock. ☹️

[@damogarr]

Another quality video Gerry 👍👍👍

[@johnsheahan7914]

Great video as always gerry

[@franciswalsh6783]

Love your videos gerry how come you don't put two swarths together with grouper

[@davidporter9556]

The best shaped bales r with a rake an when u look down tbe row it almost looks lik an M. A grouped row can b very loped sided unless it throws it on top of the row an it still isn’t a great lookin row

[@alanrees688]

Wot type of rubber/ belting are you using for the paddles. I ve got hi spec to do. Before cows come in🤪again!!

[@gerry6420]

It’s rubber belt we have here for it.... have number of lengths of it. Handy for the job

[@bobpaterson1845]

What was it 24 bales outa 3 acres at this time o year not a bad crop o grass👍 what do u reckon there is weight wise in a silage bale 🤔 great video again Gerry 👍

[@gerry6420]

I have and with these bales yet but the next bales I make I’ll weigh but I would say at least 500kg.

[@pjdoyle5105]

Gerry If you were to buy a compressor what brand would you recommend.

[@diarmuidoshaughnessy4340]

U should try nd by a 30 ft rake

[@chucklesx]

Hi Gerry, do you still have the feeder you bought that the previous owner dropped the loader bucket in to? The baler pickup looks to be doing a good job picking up and feeding the short grass 👍👍

[@gerry6420]

Yes I still have it.... I’ve it away for repair. I hope to use it as main feeder this winter. I have 3 of those feeders. Going to sell one. Don’t need 2 spares

[@chucklesx]

@@gerry6420 True, although it's worth it's weight in gold to have a backup thats in good working order on the occasional day you need it. ☺

[@gerry6420]

ChucklesX exactly..... nothing worse then feeder breaking at 8pm and not being able to feed cattle

[@DonegalTDI]

Had you much setting up to do with the round baler after you got it Gerry, or was it just hook it on and go?

[@gerry6420]

Not much hassle getting it going. We changed a few of the roller bearings and put new chain on it. That was it. Just getting used to it. Made 15 bales 5 weeks ago and they weren’t great. Bit soft. Was kinda a silage dummy run. But I have setting up now much better. Made great bales this time. Like any machine. Need to use it few times just to get your head around it.

[@cianohora872]

Dya get some1 in to wrap them once u bale

[@gerry6420]

Yes we have couple of neighbors with wrappers.... someone will always wrap them

[@gerryglynn5005]

Great video Gerry How many acres would ye cut each year

[@gerry6420]

Depends on the year. Between pit silage, hay and round bales.... I’d say around 250/300 acres most is cut twice. Few fields 3 times

[@brendanmcloughlin193]

What did ya do with the newer diet feeder ya bought that was damaged

[@gerry6420]

It away getting fixed at the minute Brendan

[@anthony342]

tidy job

[@nicklad9463]

What year is the baler it's basically brand new anyway

[@gerry6420]

It’s 2016. Yes it’s in great order.

[@michealdeering4194]

What’s the story with the new feeder that was bought at the end of last winter ?

[@gerry6420]

It’s away getting fixed at minute....

[@davidm03955]

Good man gerry..when you sell your spare feeder would you consider buying a second hand wrapper?..would save you in the long run having the whole outfit..we have a tanco wrapper which was cheaper to buy than a McHale and in my opinion every bit as good a machine

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

I asked him the same question and basically his negighbour has one that he can borrow whenever he needs it, no point in spending money if you can avoid it as the money isnt in farming

[@anthonyodonnell2062]

would ye ever think of getting a rake

[@gerry6420]

Love to but money isn’t in farming to justify it at minute. You never know in future
