Jeeeeez that’s a hell of a crop of grass. A don’t think you noticed. 😂 😂 😂.

[@paulweston2326]

Take all the cab cladding and windscreen off the safety frame on the 135 and stick the haybob on that, the breeze will keep dust off you, spent many a happy hour tedding with an old 35

Lovely crop of grass

Good morning mate,I remember a farm I worked on in Wales, when we had finished bailing etc at about 10 at night ,we would all pull up in out tractors and trailers and the farmers wide would bring a nice cold crate of cider and some burgers and chicken ,it went down a treat.happy haying mate,Monday is supposed to be hot.

[@stevedarcy9542]

Awesome video Richard. I operate a 360 machine with no air conditioning and it’s a killer in the hot weather. I always take a cool bag with ice water to drink and a ham&pickle with crisps, keeps me going. Thanks for sharing.

Great video Richard the hay is good 👍👍👍👍

[@cheekymonkey666]

if those holes start to get too big, do what i did and weld a large thick washer above the hole where you need it... any over hang from the washer just grind off.

[@autisticpainter4079]

I remember when I worked on the beef farm in my youth my boss had a haybob like that and I can understand why. Even though it's small it dose two jobs with one bit of kit. So if Harry did get his way and you upgrade to a new tedder you'd probably have to get a windrower also unless you just left the haybob in rowing mode. Great video as always Richard 👍🏻

[@MitchNelson-j2k]

Very useful thanks, we have one here and it’s never really been used in decades so we don’t know how it works until now.

[@burffarms5957]

I think the old haybob does a better job because my neighbor has one of those big tedders and it beats his hay to death after hes been in a field his hays flat and the seeds been knocked out. Ive got the same haybob as you and yes it may take longer but the hays puffed up better for the wind to blow through it, with this hot weather we've only had to turn ours once but for my neighbor has turned his 2 to 4 times. Great video cracked on

I know hay is hard work .but I have some fantastic memories I remember years ago when we would be at the hay all the neighbours even the very older generation there will be piking the grass out from the ditch and even stacking the Bales in the field after the baila

[@TomvdVeen]

yeah at the end of the haymaking days with the crew grabbing ome cold ones.. that grass will make some great bales

[@laytonphillips6667]

Great video Richard, hell of a crop .

[@philipbutler9404]

crack on Richard nice teddder

[@davidjames9064]

Should the viken haybob be used in the opposite directions on headlands to let I steer it self on cornors

[@lordofhowell7158]

Brilliant video 💪🏻 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@mistera2799]

Let me know once the cider is in, I’ll share a thatchers or two with you!

[@southtexashay777]

Nice Tedder, In South Texas we are normally always dry so we don't use them. We started using a small Square Hay Grappler. Check us out. And great video.

[@terrynoland487]

Another great day for making hay

[@stefanjonkman5418]

It's a nice peace of kit but you would save so much time and fuel if bought a bigger tedder.

[@kevin6959]

when are you going to change the tines on the tedder cause it looks like your not spreading it as well as before

[@thefunkyfarmer]

I've just bought some

[@aaronringland6251]

If you put your wheels in the bottom hole and shorten your top link it will do a better job of tedding

[@richardmottram9838]

Why don't use Massey fergusson tractor with air conditioning in hay making and silage

[@ben2e0omr]

Cracking job Funky. Time for a pint of nice cold ice cold cider. Crack on!!!

[@philyew3617]

Just curious Richard, Do the legs off the broken thyne's ever cause any problems by getting picked up when you're bailing, or does the bailer have big magnets to catch things like that?

[@lesterhertel2945]

We would. Mow one dayit the next day then win we feed it in the bales would be justice as green as the day it was bale

[@markyasaitis6050]

WOW first one to view this new video

[@What..a..shambles]

Air con would be broke ,get a clip on fan 👍🏻

[@thomaseilrwilliams1896]

Think 🧐 you should do a deal with Farmer P for his tractor 🚜 or go into those deep pockets of yours and start spending on sum new kit 😂😂😂

[@russellpetrie119]

i know farmer p looking to trade up his tractor that has air conditioning is it worth buying and selling one of yours

[@greggroome2791]

👍🇨🇮😉

[@beefybill01]

Decisions decisions, keep the back window shut and roast or leave it open and get covered in dust.

[@thefunkyfarmer]

exactly right

[@georgiaannbicknell6129]

@@thefunkyfarmer Hello Richard. I am wondering if the dry conditions are something that is happening this year. I live in Florida on the east coast just opposite of Orlando, as you look on a map, and our weather has been unusually dry for this late in the year. I believe that your weather is affected by the offshore ocean currents as is our weather. Do you think that the dryness you are experiencing is a bit unusual for this time of year? I am so glad that you are able to put in a good crop of hay for this winter. It might offset the cost of petrol for you later in the year. As always, here is wishing my cousins across the pond, the best. Thank you for sharing with us on your channel.

[@antonyfarming]

Crack on 👍

[@donaldhuisjen5902]

Wonder why you guys don't crimp your grass for faster drying?

[@thefunkyfarmer]

it's drying fast enough at the moment in these temperatures

You are complaining it’s hot and you are wearing overalls and wellies 😂

[@thefunkyfarmer]

🤣🤣🤣fair point

[@georgiaannbicknell6129]

@@thefunkyfarmer For real, Richard!!! In Florida, we know how to wear shorts, light shirts and tennis shoes in the Summer. Hay ho! Twenty years ago, you probably didn't have the financial assest available to you. I know you made your decissions to do the best you could with what you had. ❤

Wonder why they call it Tedding 🤔 it sounds like your pulling the heads off Teddy Bears 🐻 rather than using it for grass 😆
