Hay for the Goats at Little Falls Farm

A combination of the old, with the new. Hay is mowed with a mower conditioner, tedded, raked, then loaded on a hay wagon with a McCormick Deering Green Crop Hay loader, then hauled to the barn where the grapple fork operated with ropes takes the hay off of the wagon, up to the carriage in the peak of the barn, down the track and one pull of a rope dumps it in the hay loft.

What an interesting and old skool way of doing Hay. Love the Goats too.

It was fun to film too. Really amazing thats how they do it year after year . Thanks

Excellent....I only wish that was an old Ford tractor pulling that McCormick Deering Hay Loader.....keep up the good work!

[@BusHuxley]

Thank you Mr. R! That tall first gear on my 2n might have been too quick for this operation. Another reason to covet the Sherman step down.

[@batoutdahell3084]

thanks 4 posting this, i've seen tons of hay loaders, but i never seen one working

[@BusHuxley]

My pleasure! I was in the same boat. It is really quite an operation they have going there. Cool name, by the way.

We have the hay forks in your barn and wondered how they worked.Seems that ours worked with a electric motor,but my father said he used horses.Maybe he used both.Thanks for the video.He call your hay loader a hay elevator

[@BusHuxley]

Hay Hay, glad you like the video. It doesn't work with and electric motor, just the wheels acting as a drive shaft running the gears which drive the chain. Pulled with a Deere instead of a horse.

I was wondering if an electric winch in the hay loft could be used instead of a tractor. 1 man operation.

Brilliant video! Have been looking for a "horsefork" in action after reading Ralph Moody's Fields of Home, to show my girls and this looks so effective!

[@BusHuxley]

Thanks a lot!

[@onlineoffgrid]

Nice video as always

[@BusHuxley]

Thank you so much!

[@MrSanteeclaus]

This was real work

[@dmj1170]

who thinks up these inventions. Its beyond impressive to see something like this in action. Do you know how old this technology dates

[@BusHuxley]

Its so hard to imagine inventing this.

[@warrencorcoran9824]

Thank you for the post, I love engineered tools made with wood from days gone bye, incredible demonstration as well, I'd love to buy and restore that hay loader if you would consider that, done by engineers, like brand new museum condition. let me know

[@timothy-holt]

Seriously cool.

[@BusHuxley]

Thank you Mr. Holt! It was pretty great watching the practiced efficiency of that crew.
