An Electrifying Day with the Fence Charger

[@brandywineblue]

You can start gardens and chickens in your backyard, get some good practice, knowledge and routine established in that time! That's what Joel Salatin told a young man who said it'd take years to save up for a piece of land. Pete mentioned Joel when he was talking about chicken tractors and reclaiming pasture land using the various animals' natural instincts (eg pigs rooting, chickens scratching, goats browsing, etc)

[@frankbever1788]

Pete, I am impressed with the way your tractors start. After watching for a few years, I shouldn’t be surprised, excellent maintenance and overhauls. Growing up in western Pa. many years ago, we had As, Cs, Hs and Ms. we would call the difficult to start tractors, Hill Tractors, that’s the ones you parked on a hill before shutting them off. That way you could drift start them when you needed to use them again. Thanks for the memories.

[@JustaFewAcresFarm]

Just a memory of mine...when I was young, we never had "nice" tractors. Brakes didn't work, temperamental, breaking down, hard to start, beat up, tired engines, really "low overhead" pieces of equipment. One of the reasons I started restoring tractors was because I wanted ones that worked like new.

[@johnodwyer1386]

Hi Pete, I love your videos which remind me of the time when I lived on a small farm in southern Ireland in my early life. My father used to call the cattle like you do. Every one of them also had a name too. I am amazed how similar your farm in New York was to ours 50 years ago. Although we did not have even electric fences back then my job was to move cattle from field to field and I and my father would feed them with hay bundles from our backs. It was possible because we only had 15 cattle in all. I love seeing Hilary with you on the farm because my mother also played a large part in running the farm. I am 68 years old now and even though I did not stay on the farm all those years I have still fond memories of my homeplace

[@steverichardson2224]

I am 61 and one thing I have learned about you Pete (and respect), is that these videos are made for our entertainment, education, and enjoyment. Do you do everything like I used to, no, but that's OK. We can always appreciate and possibly learn different methods. You are a very smart and talented man Pete, and I am humble enough to admit just because something works for me doesn't mean it has to work for you. Keep up the good work! Murfreesboro TN

[@donkndave7811]

Pete, another great video. Here is a thought... why not cut the heavy cattle fence you put up in your last video at the wooden post so you can make a wide gate that would go from the wooden post to the next post. Looks like it would be simpler and allow you to have a wider gate for " just in case" situations. Enjoy your videos. You have inspired me to have chickens. I have ten. Dave

Got to love those fences. I remember back when I was about 18 or 19 I was visiting at my sister and brother-in-law's who had a few cows. He decided one day to change the location of his fences but I did not know this and in the evening I went to walk out to the barn and I walked right into the fence. Got me right across the thighs. I was stunned to the point where I just froze. It seemed like 3 seconds before I was able to jump back.

a remark about daylight saving time, as a young man in the merchant navy the ships clocks were put forward or back about half an hour every day depending on sailing east or west. a pain in the bum. then i joined a company that mainly sailed north south...the difference...we never changed "ship time" no matter where we were or time ashore. ignore daylight saving time you will love it.

[@paulinelarson465]

My Minnesota farmer uncles had strict rules about safety procedures for us children. Most important, ALL the pitchforks were to be accounted for, in their storage area, before we could play in the hayloft. Before we touched any wire fence, we were to test it with a long grass stem. I'm 74 now and I think they were still a bit leary of the electrification. They also ran the electric through the existing barbed wire, instead of the modern smooth wires. My sister was zapped a few times because she would forget to test - then she would blame me for purposely zapping her ! !
