[@bobpaterson1845]

Nice to have a few extra bales about the place Gerry 👍

[@barrylynch5678]

Great Video Gerry as usual.The old man was enjoying the bulldozing.LOL.

[@oliver69cork46]

A pleasure to see such well kept and maintained gear,there's another farming channel here on KZbin and the gear is rough, things are bent,dirty or missing. But yours is fantastic as is the farmyard too.

[@gerry6420]

Thanks Oliver.... well it takes a lot of work and care to keep things in shape 😊👌

Smashing video Gerry. As always

[@johnobrien295]

Great video. Lovely to see field work done in such great conditions late on in the year. This time last year the place was floating. Shot of grease for link arms of 69😜. She bit squeaky on bale transporter

[@gerry6420]

Yes a big change from last year. Great to get it done. Grass was in great order. I know the squeeks, It was on the cat 3 balls.... was rust on them from lying outside.... should have put grease on them. I thought it’d wear off but it squeak the whole time. Ahh well 😂

[@jamesduffy7820]

Good video gerry you'll need to buy a wrapper next to finish it yourself.

[@gerry6420]

Yes you never know.... it’s on the list along with 10 other things 😂

[@philipmcveigh4437]

Great video as usual Gerry, thanks. Like to know your reasoning for not letting cattle graze those fields, keep them out longer, cost saving, rather than housing early.

[@gerry6420]

These fields isolated away from the other grazing and it’s not easy to get livestock in and out of. That’s why we end up grazing. That why

[@SAB_Agri]

Good vid Gerry baler working well for you👍 What number turns of netting you putting on a bale ??

[@brendanquinn3295]

Good man Gerry. A corner of a field of bales never goes to waste. Drawing them must be the most hateful job in the world

[@gerry6420]

No doubt. Hate drawing them also

[@noelcxl2037]

Good video Gerry, wrapper on the shopping list for next year I assume..

[@martyae]

Them fields look a it different today 😅 got them done in good time

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

Will you do a video comparing them to the bales you made earlier just to see how much of a difference it will make in quality them being cut later but being leafy grass

[@gerry6420]

Yes I’ll do a comparison of the 2

[@kevinwc5439]

Nice volume of grass for this late, when was it cut last and how much nitrogen did it get?

[@gerry6420]

All it got was 2000 gallons of slurry. Never got anything else. Yes was nice bit of grass

[@MrShanbla]

Can't bate October silage Gerry, we've 10 acres to clear off ourselves whenever the contractor arrives on after the slurry ban!!

[@gerry6420]

Yes if you can get it in dry it’s not bad stuff. Had it last year for cows and the maintained well on it. Actually gained

[@theghostofcornpop4175]

Well Gerry sir 😎 👍

[@gerry6420]

Hi buddy 👍😊

[@igagri4817]

Nice to get field work finished, should be nice stuff there👌 not surprised you hate bale carrying with those tipping things hateful junk 😬🤣🤣

[@agoodbluewilldo8359]

You shud have plenty of grass saved now Gerry....great work!! Dat 69 is a beautiful machine!! 64 is more my size of tractor tho....how often do u change them??

[@gerry6420]

Yes plent of silage now. Ahh we tend to hold on to tractors for a while. I’ve had the 6420 since 2004, actually thinking about changing it next year. Do we will see. Depends on how battle prices are

[@PReilly-xl5wk]

Not to bad at the min. Wud like to get my hands on that 64....u have lookin amazing.

[@davidcummins1108]

Does the double bale handler you have not have one side on hydraulics to lift one independent of the other so ya done have to be teeing the two up together if one is not in position?

[@jackoflaherty495]

Hi Gerry are you going to get a bale wrapper to wrap the bales someday?

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

He has a few neighbours with wrappers so there is always one available to borrow 👍

[@kieranhanley6735]

great vid

[@raymondrobinson8997]

Hi Gerry, do ya really think touching bales go mouldy!? We used to have this problem when using bale tippers as the friction between the tipper arm and the bale net tore the odd micro hole in the bale! Since fusion 3 plus balers with film on film we never had any problems again.....surely stacked bales touch each other?🤔🤔

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

I doubt the bales touching makes a difference, as you said when being tipped up the handler puts tiny holes in the bale, rub of a sanding disc on a grinder, bit of paint on it and grease it before use and it should sort that issue

[@davidcummins1108]

Interesting to hear this too. Have never come across this problem cause I always push the bales in fairly tight to get as many onto the slab.

[@seamuscusack9555]

Hi Gerry another great video are ye getting a wrapper for next year?

[@jerryodriscoll3691]

Plenty of neighbours who have wrappers and theres always one available for him to borrow 👍

[@benotoole1465]

Who many acres do you own

[@elvareyvindsson5111]

What is the weight of the bales when you don't field dry them at all?

[@gerry6420]

Last field they could be 450-500kgs. First field around 400 Kgs roughly. I never weighted them.

[@lidd1982]

Whats the reason for turning just before it wraps the net?

[@gerry6420]

Tractor and baler.... I weave over the row just to put another bit into which ever side of the bale isn’t just full. Just to try have nice level bales

[@calvinross18]

I do bales with a 996 but we have to drive forward and all’s he does it wheelie but I can hold her just use the brakes well the second cut I was driving though a wood and she was wheeling the whole way home 😂

[@donalhickey8506]

How's the portmagee bull doing?

[@gerry6420]

Well the latest one is ok. No calves out him until spring time..... the older one (he’s 5 yrs old)will have to be culled. Foot issue and fertility issues

[@KieranMcGovern7530]

Now Gerry, you’ll have to get the second beacon going again 😂 John McClean got his share of torture about the second beacon so don’t fall into the same trap he did. Lovely baler regardless though, would you ever consider a wrapper to finish off the baling outfit? It’s hard to beat doing the job yourself after all.

[@gerry6420]

I know I’ll never hear the end of it 😂 I might leave it not working for the hell of it 😂

[@gerry6420]

Yes I Id like a wrapper.... see over the next few years I might pick 1 up

I know you have a 100 farm advisers commenting but would it have been as quick draw them back to the yard on the two bale trailers you have ,for hardiness 😂

Yes ideally it’d be better yes but there are for the cows on the out farm and we have 80 in the yard there and not room for any more so hence leaving them in the field
