Hi Karen, I am very impressed with the two wheel tractor driving skills! Keep up the good work.

[@leighwade6232]

Beautiful job of the figures Shean looks adorable love you all ❤❤❤❤❤

[@donalmcgrath5543]

Thank you 😊

Well done karen some fine weights there, grand cattle, that was fun with the 135

[@randybutler4772]

Much work to fill the day. Thank you for sharing. Interesting to see the different weights. 🐂

[@MichaelDoering-js2gl]

Hi Karen, dad was screaming ! Lunch is ready! 😊 some very good weights in deed. Hope the price will be good when you do sell them. Good video , take care 🇨🇦👍🚜❤️

[@renkemam]

You are doing fine Karen, no worries. Like your adventure with the 135 with no weights up front. Have some fun 😄

[@livingbreathbybreath5036]

You really did go up on 2 wheels! Sister, you about scared me half to death. Based your smile afterwards, I think you were definitely having fun with it. You are the epitome of "where there's a will, there's a way". I love it! Great job!

[@MakeIrelandGreatAgain]

Hello Karen, your doing a great job, if you were to keep the bales on their flat and start at the top of the bale it will split down the centre and is a lot easier to work with.before did it the same way as your self one day my back was a bit sore I found out it was easier on there flat.. because it doesn't roll down on you .keep up the good work

[@gerardmckenna6899]

Hi Karen. it's great to see you back. another good video. getting on well with the farm work but you have to very careful working with the cattle,.

[@anthonyboucher6310]

Poor old faithful 135. It struggled and you struggled lol But hey, it was alright in the end. So we'll done the pair of you ❤

[@thomasmcweeney230]

Great video your cattle are looking great and the weighed very well you can be proud of the.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Thank you

[@jameswilson9142]

Great video you’re doing a great job . 135 is a bit light for round bales keep it up 👍

[@rogerbasker6970]

Great video! Thanks for taking us along. Have a great day.

[@684ih4]

Some fine weanlings there Karen!, great satisfaction breeding cattle like that. My silage was wet last year and stank too...but the cattle did very well on it, it smelled so bad I got it tested for the first time ever and it turned out to be 76.6 DMD. I could smell it off the back of my hands when I came in after feeding, and I hadn't even touched it!

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

76.6 is crazy!!

[@JohnBailey-x9j]

I say it was the heavys bale you ever lifted on the 135 good to see your doing great ❤

[@johng2567]

Good video Karen, you have great powerful stock, there a credit to you. You should maybe consider getting a few chains with clips for tieing gates together, your cattle are too powerful for baler twine or rope if they push up against the gate. Should also consider leaving a bale next to the gate or park the tractor up to it for extra support when handling the cattle. Even though there quite your cattle are too strong to be handling relying on ropes and string alone to keep gates together. Stay safe.

[@ADAMmoor]

this is great karen keep up the great work take carex

[@timizod8966]

Brilliant video Phil and Liv. Loving the history, be good to see how you progress. Be great to have some of the old stuff in cabinets to see once the shop is done. Great piece of your history. Keep up the videos

Hi Karen thanks for another awesome video again, your getting a dab hand with those clippers. Not sure your ready to set up a barber's shop yet 😅 .That poor 135 not quite man enough for those big bales but everyone loves a trier. Thanks again take care and stay safe 👍 😊.

[@declannoonan4445]

Well done Karen , great looking cattle overall and thank god you didn’t get injured , the 135 could still do other jobs even if you get a bigger tractor stops alot of changing farm implements and saves time

[@johnlydon533]

Great video Karen. Enjoyed watching. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@JOHNJONES-hz2em]

Hi Karen, an eventful day showing off your barber skills, wrestling cattle and for the finale a world first rodeo show on a 135, brilliant. By the way I think the 135 should be put out to pasture, poor old thing🤣💙

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

🤣🤣 there's life in it yet 🤣

[@SeedyAu]

Yet another informative update - thank you Karen. You have a great relationship with your 4 legged children. The way you step over to pat your boy Sheehan who watches your every movement, then scolding Bert telling him he will hurt 'someone' Bert seemed to enjoy his butt rub while being weighed. The two big boys at the end of the weigh in were very impressive. I'd want to have a very securely attached gate/fence set up to avoid a near death experienced from even a small calf. If you can just drag the heavy gate that would be nothing for a charging calf, then add the scare from having a gate around her head would add to her panic. Very impressive wheelies with the 135 too. In case you don't post an update in the next 12 days and understanding that farmers don't get real breaks as there is always something to do, I hope you and your family all have a wonderful Christmas.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Thank you so much!

[@davidkenny7481]

Hi Karen. Hope all is well. Glad that you had a good experience with the batteries on the Cara clippers. I had the opposite experience. Only one out of 4 batteries will take charge. 2 of those are brand new and never worked. When they work they are a handy clippers.

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Oh they must have been duds that's annoying for you

Great video as always. Wasn't to far out in the weight.

[@boogiewoogiebubbleboy2877]

Being a new subscriber to your channel, about 3 months, I think, I have a lot to learn. Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Referring to myself, of course, not you luvvy. 😏 A little about myself before I start. Firstly, I'm a cheeky chap. I always joke around. So, if I say something to upset or offend you or anyone reading my comment, I apologise now, profusely. I worked as a general labourer on a farm, which was also a livery stable, back in the early 1970s. I started there when I was 15 straight from school. My first job, on my first day, after the pet talk, was to walk a bull, a very, very large bull with a ring through his nose from a field into the padlock having to cross two fields. That in itself was scary because that beast scared the bejesus out of me just with his look, that beedy eye of his. That eye seemed to follow me everywhere I turned. I felt it burrow deep into my soul. That's how scared I was but I had to pull through it, I wanted the job so bad. Let's just say things happened to me that day, things I'll never forget. It turned out it was my initiation test, which I passed with flying colours. I saw many things and had great times on that farm wonderful memories. I even lodged with the farmer and his family for a while until I got myself lodgings. Anyway, having seen what I thought was everything on that farm during the 5 years I worked there. I have never ever seen cows or bulls cliped, horses, yes, but... So, my question is this, I'm sure I'm not the only viewer to wonder this, but why clip them? I understand clipping around their nether regions for breeding, or perhaps, for hygienic reasons, even shows, but why do it across the back? Seems strange. I guess once I know the reason it may not seem strange after all. Next, a little light relief. As for the weigh-in. At first, I thought I had my wires crossed listening to a combination of boxing and a local beauty contest both at the same time. 😂😂😂 Not to alarm you, Karen. But, did you know, there are apparently more Farm related accidents recorded at A&E during winter time than there are road traffic accidents during Christmas and New Year combined, all from drink driving. I never knew that until the other day when I heard it on the radio. Fancy that.😮 WoW. I never knew you were so daring. Pulling stunts with that tractor, up on two wheels. You go, girl 😉 show those lads on electric bikes pulling wheelies in the streets how to do a proper wheelie👍 No, seriously, though. Didn't that giant X painted on the bail give you a clue not to go near it? I would have left it well alone. You are braver than me. I bet you would do great in a bull fighting contest, the way you fight off your beasts armed with whopping great heavy steel gates. 😝 I'm so glad auto correct didn't change the word beasts adding an r. That could have been a whole different show 😏 I did say I was cheeky. 🤭 I bet you thought. I know, I'll just cut off the plastic top, which will lighten the load. Then, if I still can't lift the bloody thing, I'll ram it in while pulling wheelies all the way. 😂😂😂 Time to be serious now. Today was a really bad day for me. Someone close to me passed away. Its okay. It was to be expected, they had the big C and been fighting it for almost 12 years. So, I was feeling rather down, that is, until I got home, sat in my favourite chair. Reached for my bottle of whisky and caught up on my KZbin videos. Thank you for entertaining me, for cheering me up, and making me laugh as I watched your video. Then, even more so as I laughed at my own jokes. I'm not one for leaving comments, but I always give you the thumbs up. Today is different because I've a few whiskies inside me. 😘🙏🇬🇧⚒️

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Thank you. We clip their backs so they don't sweat when they're in the shed over winter. this is my first year doing it but it's supposed to keep them more comfortable and they thrive better as a result

[@philgardener7018]

wow you did well to get those heavy bales in without your weights on the front. I got a bale spike for my 135 this year after seeing your videos. we feed the horses hay which is much lighter luckily so it seems fine

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

Oh I'd say the 135 is perfect for that job in fairness

[@Johndonvan861]

Hi Karen the 135 is perfect, did u ever consider getting a forklift mast for her on wheels, you can still lift the forklift up on the three point, but u also have the wheels, it would save the tractor lifting up on the front , & you could grap bales easier higher up with the mast

[@karenmoynihanfarm]

I honestly never heard of it and can't picture it

[@Johndonvan861]

​​​​@@karenmoynihanfarmjust a back end fork lift mast only it is on wheels , so it takes the weight off the tractor, be ideal on the hard yard, specially if u had a bale spike toe on the fork lift mast rather than the two pallet toes., there's one on you tube if u type in , I found a forklift for the tractor for €450 you'll find it

Hi Karen. Great videos enjoy watching how things are done on the other side of the world. Instead of buying the loader (even though I'm sure it is great) I would be looking at a good quality 2nd hand tractor with a front end loader capable of lifting bales, just because it would be so much more versatile than the loader. Just my 2 cents Keep up the good work I bet you make your Dad prouder than you can even imagine.
