Case Baler is Already Leaving! 

You need a surface cleaner for your pressure washer. It would save you a ton of time instead of the turbo nozzle.

I’m 62 years old and have just recently started following you! Your farm your yard your parlor an entire operation is neat clean and organized cannot tell you how happy it makes me as an older adult to see quality workmanship. Can tell that you all take pride in your farm, something missing in the world today.

I really admire your positive attitude, especially when you find the all the good reasons for something bad happening. I strive to be more like you.

Jan, you are an expert at taking a negative situation and turning it positive. Your concern for the welfare of your animals is remarkable. Great video and thanks.

Hey Jan - I visited my friend's dairy farm and they were impressed with how much I knew about the operation and could pronounce DeLaval properly!!! Thanks for all the great videos!!! They milk 1100 head and have another 1000 head on site - LOTS OF COWS!!! Hopefully your baling prospect pays off for you. Happy that manure wagon didn't separate on the road. The new feed mill is looking nice!!!

Thanks Jan for another great video. The trouble with the hitch and almost damaging a bin could have been a whole lot worse. Some one is watching out for you and your family. You are one hard working young man. I really miss being on the farm; you let me re-live that life with each video. Thank you for that. God Bless you.

If you put two posts into the ground in front, 20-30 feet or so, of the feed alley way and then visually align the posts as you drive through you will always be centered when driving anything through. I would also make sure that you have good drainage to limit the amount of collected water!

Thank goodness it was in the yard enjoyed the video have a day love from TEXAS

Pressure washing will also polish a concrete surface over time wile cleaning that bio-film stuff off so it's not an ideal solution. I'm surprised a specific aggregate for non-slip render was not selected for all the cattle area floors top finish.

Interesting and a lesson for all of us tp be patient when things go wrong. You and your dad just keep going. Good on you.

I wonder if you could chlorinate the recycle flush water tank? That might help bacteria bloom and save the labor of fire hosing.

I have a "cheap" idea... If you have the barrier, to use it to move the cows in the parler to be milking, you can install a sprinkler system that uses high water pressure to clean the wait area, moving the barrier from the back to the front, more easy and you don't need to spend time using fire hoses. Greetings from Spain.

You are the man w/ skills, good attitude to solve problems quickly & at low cost!!

Mate, all you need now is remotes for each auger and you won't even need to get out of the tractor. Sweet setup!

Thanks for sharing your vids with us!

Put the loader through the same path as the feed wagon under the augers on the bins. U will have to get the loader through there to clear snow.

Sorry to hear you are having to resort to hauling bales but obviously your Dad had a plan. I can remember a few years back bales being trucked between Saskatchewan and Ontario as well. When you ground those bolt heads off I was thinking you are going to have to lift those legs off the stud but I guess you found that out the hard way. Glad it worked out for you.

You got Lucky finding pin. Now just keep it bare ground this winter around the bins.

Can you blade the surface some below the augers to create more space?

You will need to stay on top of it when it snows the feed wagon will be close..maybe change feed wagon tires to a low profile type or lower the driveway alitte bit.

You are a real inspiration for your viewers. I really enjoy the multiple content. ✌🏻

Thanks Jan for sharing a day of bad luck and you are amazing

Crisis avoided...but wow that would have made for some interesting content. :) (always thinking of the positives). Glad you are safe and nothing damaged. Those pieces of equipment are large, but wow are they expensive!

Hey Jan , thanks for this very interesting day on your Farm, lots of thinks are happening, great to see, nice new cap 👍💪😀🚜

Excellent and Informative work 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦

Little 6011 locktight hold that in as long as you never want to take it apart .Dam that was some hard digging

A bush in the spreader drawbar would help take alot of shock off the tractor drawbar

Working hard. Ian and lots to do things, tanks, etc !!😉🚜🚜🚜👍👍

We've had drawbar pins seize up in as little as a year of material builds up on top of the pin. Happened to 2-magnum 250's this year. Last time we had to pull the bracket off and have it pressed out. That bolt does not have any force on it, simply a keeper bolt for the main pin. Take a look at the condition of the pin to see if it is sloppy in the casting and moving around, applying force to the keeper bolt.

Good work. Glad no one got hurt. That could have been a lot worse. Stay safe and thanks for another great video.

Excellent video Jan! Good thing you noticed the feed auger clearance now. Repositioning the bins would have been a lot more difficult in the winter. Caught the hitch problem just in time too. Always impressed with your thoughts to keep your animals safe, healthy and happy. Good idea for the cleaning. I wonder if a little bit of lime dust would help, and/or increased ventilation to dry the floor completely between milking. Sorry you had some troubles. Thanks for the video!

Looks like you're earning your big bucks today! No gym needed today! Have a great day!

U should try using dawn soap with a old push broom after u wet down the floor?

Great video Jan. You will have to keep that auger area clear of snow.

might not be so good when there is a footor two of snow and ice on the ground, plus when you are trying to remove the snow with equipt which is higher

Right on, keep the faith!

Woah! Not much clearance under that lowboy.

I have the same system and yeah it’s from the recycled water power spread once a year and the fire hose

You're handy with a shovel! That ground was hard

One word for the slippery floor problem, bleach. Fill a hand sprayer with a 50/50 bleach/water mix and spray down the floor and let sit for a bit. Then a light hose down afterwards.

Awesome catch to stop the tractor before the hitch fell on the ground! Is there a remote control system on the feed augers so you can fill without getting out of the tractor?

LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS SASKDUTCHKID

Great video Jan, Thank you

I don’t know if you’ve done it already. But you should cut those tabs that stick over the edge of the concrete. Could possibly cut a tire.

Some higher power was watching over you in regards to that hitch pin, things could have been very bad. Aloha 🤙🏼🤙🏼

good stuff, enjoyed. Thanks.

Love you all from Mesa AZ

When pounding lags, put a second nut. Wont wreck the nut you need.

You could always cut trenches between the silos; for the wheels to go through. That could get you another 6 inches. Just a thought.

Doing concrete work we used real high pressure (up to 30000 psi) to cut the finish off concrete. Left a finish it like sand. I don't know if that would work for you or not.

Can you find out how the low boy works. It looks only inches from the road, what happens when you get on a road with a big bump or a dirt road with a wash out. How does it work? Maybe you could ask when you see him again

A very interesting video, Jan! I'm so sorry you had all that trouble but very happy to see how well you did with each situation!!

The Jack is hard to turn when the wagons full. Lol some times obvious make people laugh. Well It did for me. The holding area might be getting from sand on the cows feet. They might be like sanding black over time. Maybe a rubber floor by the parlor end might be something to try. It guess cow like to be a rubber more and that is where the cows are standing the most. That might encourage the cows to walk ahead in the holding pen. I believe the 10 generation farmer put rubber floor in there holding area and parlor

Good eye on the pin Jan

Can you scrap the snow out in the winter ?

05:00 Makes me wonder if some spoon of sand could work, flush it of each time. 10:50 Strange that bolt snapped, should not take much pressure.

You’re gonna need more room under those feed bins when it starts snowing…. Might as well dig it out now before it’s frozen solid…. 🤷‍♂️

BRAVO!!, JAN!!.¡Múy buen video, super bueno tú canal!. #SASK #DUTCH #KID~_🚜 #CANADA🍁🌎👍👍👍 ¡Saludos Jan!. Fernando..👊👍 #Argentina..💥🌎

VERY LUCKY

Another awesome video ! Always so positive !

another fine video, thx

Never a dull moment!

Awesome Milwaukee action

Jan - you use a lot of water on the farm. Where does your water come from?

Would grooving the entire holding area help?

Nice action on the goon spoon.

With all the upgrades in your feed storage and all, does this mean you may increase the number of cows you’re going to be milking ? Great video. Just goes to proves, stuff happens. Hope tomorrow’s a better day.

How come the whole holding pen isn't cross grooved? That would help with traction for cows

U had a close call with the drawbar pulling out

Great video

You must be planning on going to a 1000 cows with this huge feed center you have added.

Good video.

Yikes glad you caught that

Man what a day my man

👍👌❤🇨🇦, another Sask boy, me too

What's happening with dear old Dad? I thought you said his policy was not to buy new toys, but you guys have lots of new stuff, barns, storage bins, etc. A real committment to the future.

❤️

Your cows don't get corn?

👍

Just to show that on a well run farm crap can hit the fan in a hurry.

Love the video's 👍

Biofilm is hard to deal with

Couldn't you add some type of chemical to that water to combat the bacteria???

everyone trying to get shout outs on your channel now 😂😂

Is that Al Scharf loading the trailer?

12:20 when the Dutch starts to take over from excitement 😉

YOUR equipment shipped to do custom baling on anothers fields?

You should have cut the metal pad off from the corner someone will get cut

ha ha it is not a disaster it is good video ( lemonade out of lemons ??)

🐮🐮🐮

You are just having a real bad day. Lets hope nothing else happens

Wonder where all this sketchy stuff comes all of a sudden ? Cant remember you using it too often.in the past..I like your dads hat !

not much health and safety on this farm, taking pto shaft off with engine running

🚜 🚜 🚜🐄🐄🐄🐄 🚜 🚜🚜

👏👏👏👍👍👏👏

🇨🇦👍👍👍💯🇺🇸

A- TOO SHORT

You used the word "sketchy" a lot in this video lol. I think we've all had days like that.

Cross cut the concrete that will stop slipping

Jan do your dad and mom ever milk or is it just you and your sisters and hired help and who do you get bulls from for AI I use semex and abs select sires I get new Zealand and Australia and Denmark Jersey island genetics
