Loading Hay in the BARN!!! (Logging Horse gets a workout as well!!!)

[@justinburkett5578]

My wife has been right beside me for 36 years she’s worked every step with me. We loaded many a bale didn’t get rich but it’s been a great life.

[@lesthompson5907]

It's the journey one takes not the road one works. & when that journey is one with a Good Wife it is a blessing from God himself.

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

Yes I do!

[@frankkirby5763]

What a beautiful life and a true southern family. Best wishes and blessings.

[@daviddill4314]

suggestion : Widen the door so a typical skid will fit. That way you can stack hay on skid and use your tractor. Also place skids on trailer and stack hay on them then use tractor to unload and place in loft. You could also use a pallet jack to move bales (on skids) in the loft.

[@paulsanders1373]

My thought too….will make it so much easier to unload.

Now that’s hard work been their done that

[@thomashipps8418]

All the years we used square bales we always placed the bottom row on the cut edge , it helps eliminate mold, Good luck in all you do

[@eltonwiltshire6904]

Agreed. I’m from Australia and we did the same with putting the bottom row of bales on the cut edge. Also helped protect the baking twine from rotting off it was on the ground. I’m a big fan of Wallace Farm and Sawmill. I don’t miss a video. Great channel 👍.

[@billyshumate853]

Great video and good job. The horses are working good. Take care of the kittens. Take care and have a blessed and safe week 🙏

[@9957nite]

I've hauled a bunch of hay and stacked it in barns when i was a kid the way you are doing it , one thing you have that we didn't is a tractor with forks on it , when you pickup the hay put it on some of those used pallets you took off the trailer , probably would'nt have to do that , pickup alot of bales at once then you can both stack it in the loft of of the forks . Just a suggestion , i'm sure you know what your doing and got a way of doing things.

[@erniehill4357]

Enjoying watching the horses work, nice video.

I know one thing, Britney is going to be sore tomorrow. Loading hay is not easy on the muscles! She is a real trooper!

[@lyleharkness-rv5vf]

There was always a debate between my father and uncle of which was the best way to stack hay. My dad said stack it cut side up (strings on the side), my uncle insisted hay should be stacked string side up. My dad said that the cut side up kept the stacks more stable because the bales held together better like velcro. My uncle said that string side up made it easier and quicker to stack. My brothers, my cousins, and I just rolled our eyes because it was the same work either way 🤣 Good video 👍

[@BirdYoumans]

[@beebjnu3906]

load hay on the pallets, load pallets on the trailer and from the trailer up to the storage shed

[@panthergrowl12]

Cowboy hat is new....... looks good!

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

Thanks! Just new to the channel. I been involved heavily in the horse industry as a professional since my early 20’s. Just took a break to build a sawmill operation. Now we back at it!

[@lesthompson5907]

you do not need a hay Eliteivater you need a pitchfork son if you have one, If you are feeding 2000 bullock you need an elevator I recall the barn will hold 350 bales if. pack to the roof as we did, & don't forget to oil them then you're better off with a Dutch barn, if you have friends in the Hamish community, they will give you good advice /. You need a log cart son. Yes, it getting to be an interesting channel. Keep it up Les England. Ps Think about loading your hay ball into the loft on pallets You will need to widen the door Or put too on the loft you could use the old one other send it back to you Or make a special batch just for your lift But it put the power-loader to work at home. for unloading. Just A Brain Fart But It May Help.

[@philt1658]

We use a rope and pulley on a beam to load our hay loft. Horses are alot of work. One benefit is you don't need a gym membership. Love your videos.

[@lesthompson5907]

you're going to Need a log cart. & a set of chains the chains lift the log at the front so the wheels keep the horse self-tack when pulling out of a wood son.

[@jbbrown7907]

I like the kittens.

[@johnszabo7650]

Tyler go to the other side first then fill it half way through the door.

[@duanebolen543]

Stack Hey, with the strings up so you can walk on them.If you but the hay on edge they get wobbly and you can't walk on them because they're not pressed in the baler that way

[@RodneyJackson-j4i]

tractor and a pallet would make it a lot easier

[@KG-xt4oq]

Congrats on 50K!!! You guys rock!

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

Thanks so much!!

[@mikesmith9159]

Enjoy the channel. Thanks. Hope you’ll consider leaving the battens off the hay loft. As your boards dry, you’ll get a crack between and the loft will breathe perfectly for hay. All the old hay barns were built with gaps to allow air flow. Since you’re in the south, maybe batten the South side only for hard rain. Just a thought from an old hay farmer.

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

Thanks for the tips! I wondered about that!

[@DnMcDy]

The fact that you don't have the ceiling rail and hay hook system that old barns had, an elevator is probably your best option. I've used both methods. The ceiling rail and hook system was great for having the bails drop near where you wanted to stack them. Elevator, you have to walk the bails to their stack location. The issue with hay in barns is spontaneous combustion. Slightly moist hay will heat like compost and start a fire. Careful not to bail while dew is still on the hay in the early mornings. Keep a close watch for steam and smoke in your barn.

[@bigten37]

@@wallacefarmandsawmill That's an idea. The doors Wider. two doors wide & you do not need an elevator load the bald onto pallets in the field & then back Home Re 'lowed them into the barn with your loader Mack use what you have. yes that gives the Loader a second string to it Bow Les & Jan England.

In the past, I am now 62, we helped farmers with their haylofts in the Netherlands... It was a lot more than that!

[@Jfishersawmill]

Brittany is so cool works hard and looks good doing it😊

[@1herbert100]

Hey guys. next time start at the front end and work your way back. When you half full fill from the other end. Just sayin.

[@steverogers4945]

I love your videos. A elevator suggestion would be the Kubota tractor with the pallet forks, load at a comfortable height off the trailer (maybe 6 bales) and lift to the loft window with one hand!

[@buck-bc4cn]

The poplar siding looks great, I know it will lose color as it dries.

[@davidheckman]

I have a vague recollection of stacking the bales vertically, so they were easier to stack when things got tight at the end of rows, ext. It also allowed the bales to dry faster.

[@Ronald-hx6zn]

Good to have dry hay😊

[@GaryRHegar]

Kids today don't know what "hard" work is if they have never "hauled" hay in the summer. My summers in East Texas were spent helping my grandad haul hay for the cow to eat during the winter.

[@poppagrouch4781]

Only thing I seen that I never done is not interlock the bails while stacking....I stand corrected after watching more... Good job, took me back to when I was 12 and 13.....

[@jbbrown7907]

Those cut-offs could make a cozy fire.

[@tonyjohnson2256]

Could you use the forks on your tractor to pick the hay beles up to put them in the loft?

[@ianbaird6113]

When I used to have horses we loaded the barn with a simple pully system to get that mechanical advantage. Makes its so your young ones can lift as much as you.

[@saintaugustine1715]

Good afternoon I don't know how much they cost but when I was in province of Quebec Canada we used conveyer belt to bring our bails in the barns loaft for the place you got a 12 footer would be long enough just a suggestion have a great day

[@larrylaird3616]

Sweet.

[@swdweeb]

Worst time of the year for me, we load 600+ bales every July., typically on the hottest days of the year. Just like you, we load onto a trailer, drive it home, stack it in the barn. We stack 10 high. by the time we're done we're two tired old people.

[@buck-bc4cn]

Yea, done that certainly more timed than I care to remember. The most memorable time was when we had hay rubbing on the wheel and nearly caught on fire.

[@PeterMcfarlane-l7v]

Hi Tyler,why don’t you load the hay onto a pallet then lift it up to the hay loft door? ,it will save a lot of gut busting,cheers mate

[@robertgreen8695]

You might want to invest in a couple of hay hooks. Saves wear and tear on the hands and reduces string breakage.

[@kevincorbin6273]

Not sure why but every time Ive bucked hay it’s the hottest day of the year

[@DonaldPearce-b5c]

Where are your Hay Hooks? They make moving Bales easier. Also, you need a Beam over the door with a Pully set up.

[@pepper77449]

It seems to me that you could find a conveyor to move the bales up to the loft. Cheap too

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

We on the lookout!

[@jerrycooper1546]

I would have used the front end loader and a pallet to raise the bales up to the top.

[@byron7165]

Perfectly good forklift on the front of your Kabota. Six on a pallet, send 'em up. Work smarter, not harder.

[@MissouriOldTimer]

yes I have done that a lot, when I was a kid that was about the only way we had of making money,,,, being lazy like I am,, why couldn't you put 4 or 6 on the pallet forks and set them up to the loft that way?

[@MySORRELL]

Since you are set up like you are. Before ya'll head to the hay field, line your trailer with pallets. Load the hay on the pallets. Use the tractor to set the pallets in barn. Turn your barn door into 6' door and get a hand jack to put in the barn to move the pallets around.

[@wallacefarmandsawmill]

Not a bad idea!

[@terrycannon570]

Aden must have been driving while y'all were loading the trailer.

[@exotictones1054]

Put your bottom row all the same direction on it's side so the mice don't eat the strings off.

[@jimwhitworth2307]

Get you a pallet jack. And use tractor to put balesup there. Next time put hay on pallerts stacked several high. Save you some work.

[@davidstoddard9160]

It looks like you could have backed up a little closer to the haymow, so you would not have to have to throw the bales so far from the opening.

[@byron7165]

You gearing up for school tours? You gould break out the circle mill and go from start to finish. Kids could learn about harnessing up the horses, You and Brit could go out in the trees with a bucksaw and cut a tree, grab a horse and drag it to the circle mill and saw it up into lumber. Be a good thing for the kids to see.

[@chrisfillios3308]

[@lesthompson5907]

Does the barn floor have a per of doors in the flip open to lift up corn { what no pitchfork? & throw the bales up to the higher leaves of snow. into the bottom beck without going out in the snow. { Bogger, me it only half a lowed} but it looks like a nice bit of fodder. I see you do not bother tying the balls in with the wife & A week later Ho the penny did drop then LOL Les England. A nice bit of hay at least. You need to buy yourself a pitch fork son .

[@williamneary9048]

Could you load 6/8 bales on your tractor and lift a few at a time? Either way that’s a lot of work!

[@kennethhockey2598]

Loved the video, thx. Just a thought, you might at some time put a hole/chute in the floor up top to make it easier to get hay to the lower section. 🤔 Anyways, God bless. Wallace Farm & Sawmill rocks, ttyl 🤘🙂👍

[@ronniebrue7875]

Yall need a cart up top to put 2 or 2 bales on and roll them to the other end.

You should ask a local farmer how to stack a little better so there tight n stay tight hauling.most will be happy to show you.you need some hay hooks too.
