HOW TO BALE HAY BY HAND

Part of trying to be more self sufficient on the homestead is learning how to make our own bedding for the animals. With winter fast approaching we needed to get some straw stockpiled for the goats and Chickens. Watch how we bale our own straw without using any baling equipment.

Cool for a small field. no expensive equipment .great idea

[@RunamuckFarms]

Thanks we were suprised at how fast and easy it really was

[@milabulic]

Awesome! I have to scythe my hay and straw and when looking at the instructions to make hay balers...well, a little too complicated and time consuming for me. Besides, these mini bales will be easier for me to manage on the days that I am on my own. Thank you so much!

[@RunamuckFarms]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I really like the smaller bales as well much easier to handle

[@richarddetriquet9642]

This is so Cool! I just had a thought, to help compact the hay more, occasionally during the process, put the empty bin on top of the bin you were filling, , and stand on it , or press down on it , to help mash the hay down further,, then add more hay & so on. Those plastic bins are so handy for so many things, & now they bail hay too!

[@RunamuckFarms]

We will definitely try that idea next year. 👍 Thank you for following our homesteading journey.

[@ShaunMarijanna]

This is a great video, thank you for encouraging us to grow ans bale some of our own hay. What type of a mix did you use for seeding and what animals did you use it for? How much land was this from?

[@JLandfield1]

How did you cut the grass before it dried?

[@RunamuckFarms]

We borrowed a scythe from a neighbour to cut it. We are thinking of buying our own this year.

[@stoopidhaters]

Hay, this is a great video. What knot did you guys use?
