I remember when we ground up our feed. Back then, it was a non styled JD "B" running a flat belt driven hammer mill. Shoveled in the feed through the mill, into a wagon. Time to feed, shoveled out of the wagon into buckets. Hard work but, very enjoyable. Today, y'all got it made. Oh, nice to see the JD sweatshirt.
Debt can be a budget killer during lean times. But can be a nice tax write-off during rich times. But with the no right to repair deals now. It will get very expensive once the Warranty is gone
That use to be my job after school. Ground two loads of hog feed a week. Mostly corn and bean meal with salt and mineral suppliments. Fed a lot of hogs that way. We used a IH mill. Can't remember the model number. Use an old 656 to grind with till the pto went out then we used the 966. Gosh that was a lifetime ago...........
According to Clemson univ. 16% pig feed 385 lbs soy 48% corn 1555lbs and 60 lbs mineral mix. I have a new holland 352 grinder some of the bevel gears aren’t available thru New Holland. I’m sure there are used parts, if the bevel gears go a hydraulic motor might be easier
I used to try and line the grinder up by driving by like you do here, then I figured out if you back up to the wagon at a 45 ish degree angle, so the grinder just passes the end of the wagon you can just keep backing up until the hopper is just where you want it. The hopper will be just off the tire of the grinder instead of sticking straight out, but it works the same.
I grind pig feed first then grind heifer feed then grind cow feed once week always on Friday grind feed had international 56 grinder love it God bless you all hard work all do
Grinding ear corn works great for cattle. Even better for cattle is half ear corn and half shelled corn and whatever is cheapest soybean meal or distillers at the time to get the protein up
I grind for my cows and hogs with a gehl 100 hammer mill your new holland looks like a better machine. I put down bunker cover plastic to catch the leaks and spills its always a challenge to get that auger under the gravity box just right, the real challenge is setting up in the right direction so you dont get all the dust in your face.
Oliver white dealer was a Dairy Farmer with his dad& brother had equipment around yard like you . Good to here about spring break , now it back to work
had a new holland 352 mixer bought from caseih for $1300 i put 2 1/2 wheel barrows corn silage in the back hopper along with roasted soybeans dried shelled corn some oats 1 to 1 mineral and salt. that batch was for steer/heifer feed. tried putting in alfalfa hay but it would plug the unloading auger and mine had double flighting. was/still am thinking about raising some pigs but...................the smell
Every grinder mixer I’ve ever seen leaks feed and needs to be patched up. Ours has duct tape all over it and it seems to do the trick in a bind. I noticed the Holstein calf hutches, do you guys have a dairy operation too?
@3:00 you lower the shute to see if you line up? can't you park a little bit further away and use the shute so you won't loose that bit of corn what got on the ground now?
u should grow Barley and feed it to ur animals, lots cheaper then corn, and barley fed animals taste better. or i have heard this, its said if a Canadian eats steak in America we don't like its taste [mostly corn fed] and if a american eats steak in Canada they said the taste is much better then back home. so grow barley, its lots faster and with your climate u might get 2 crops a year.
Good video. Was wondering a couple things. I think you said a while back but what brand of wheel barrow is that you had by the mixer at the beginning? looks heavy duty. Do you ever have problems from driving over the hoses between the calf hutch and shed, just figure it would be poking holes in them. Thanks for the video and I look forward to the next one and a look at the 2+2.
The last hose made it ten years, I think. this one isn't as good, but it will last longer than you think. I try to pull it out of the way. Dad only moves it when a bull dozer is coming through.
@@boehmfarm4276 cool, I was always Made to move them so out of habit I keep doing it, I can't recall ever driving over one. That's what sparked my curiosity.
There is a grain mixer listed in the 2015 frontier catalogue. Not entirely sure if it's still offered nor do I know the full.specs. Food for thought at least
hey r u planning on painting ur green corn picker Red or??? my dad bought red harrows to mount on back of flied cultivator, guess what color we had to paint them, yep jd green
They are bottle calves, they are in there two months, then get moved with the rest. It is a sanitary thing while they are young to keep them from touching. It stops the spread of diseases like pneumonia and scours.

Jacob i am probably 20 years older than your papa. He runs a farm. That is tech. What I think is his interest. I can't stand tv any more. Even a little bit. Lie lie lie especially the normal news channels. I can't watch that for 2 minutes before hearing 10 lies. By omission or flagrant misuse of reality.
Absolutely... I quit watching the news 15 years ago. Amazing how much happier and nicer life is when you don't listen to all that GARBAGE all the time. You're absolutely right... you know how you can tell if a politician or reporter is lying?? Their lips are moving. Seen some local stories end up on the Houston news and they ALWAYS misrepresent whatever is going on to serve their agenda... and of course they'll hang around town most of an afternoon and always manage to find five of the biggest nutcases in town to "interview" about the situation-- either to get their 15 minutes of fame or because they're just as twisted in their thinking as the reporters are. The media is all just pure garbage anymore. Later! OL J R :)
Never thought I'd spend a Saturday afternoon watching someone grind hog feed, yet here I am...

I like the way yall farm not having all your money tied up in fancy equipment.
Oh, nothing too fancy around here.
Debt can be a budget killer during lean times. But can be a nice tax write-off during rich times.

Grinding your own feed has to be a good saving. Your feeding good quality feed and it shows. Them pigs are really growing. Always Interesting videos.
Thank you. Home made feed saves about half of buying it.

If not, we have that second grinder for parts.

Hmmmmm, I will try that next time.
Best pig feed grinding I've seen all day!
Thank you
I never get tired of your videos Jacob. Please keep them coming, best wishes from Alberta.
Thank you. There will always be more.

Harbor freight has a worm gear winch that would work good on that mixer. They’re only like 40.00. I built bin jacks using them. Ton rated.

Good to see another farmer loving old iron like me. Good job there for sure
New iron is half copper (wiring)
@@boehmfarm4276ha too true

My Uncle used to Raise Piggies. Hasn't done that in a long time but I'm sure it's fun!
Good to hear about the eggs doing well!
Try to track how long it takes to manage them and the feed > egg conversion rate.
Nice to see you in something other than insulated coveralls! Spring is here, or at least on its way!
Yes, I need spring and dryness!!!
Good video man I like the way you spiffed-up your Channel it's real it's you for sure
Thank you
Love the videos guys love how u make things work
This is how farms truly work, lol
+1 for the John Deere sweatshirt!
first one. love your videos keep it up
The pigs look very good 2 eat. It makes me hungry.
Very droll....and wry..kept hearing W.C,Fields with..' Hmmmm got a head like a Rocky Ford melon !'
Nice to see the whole process
Cool
Need hight profile tries on gravity wagon works lot better had ram p made sit wagon higher works great
Thanks for the video
Every grinder mixer I’ve ever seen leaks feed and needs to be patched up. Ours has duct tape all over it and it seems to do the trick in a bind. I noticed the Holstein calf hutches, do you guys have a dairy operation too?
We buy bull calves and raise them for sides of beef.
@3:00 you lower the shute to see if you line up? can't you park a little bit further away and use the shute so you won't loose that bit of corn what got on the ground now?
Could ground full load unload have what we did

That’s what we wanted to do today too but the bearing split on the mill
That's a bad day.
@@boehmfarm4276 yes it was. We just got it all apart and are putting it together today. pigs are just getting cob corn at the moment.
Where do you guys farm at?
There is a grain mixer listed in the 2015 frontier catalogue. Not entirely sure if it's still offered nor do I know the full.specs. Food for thought at least
How much salt and mineral to do add pwr ton for pig feed?
I've watch you grind feed a couple different time. How do you figure out how much of what do you put in you feed.
There is a chart on the side for volume and weight, and I use a pearson square to calculate protein.
Are u going to get more pigs after you sell those ones
Absolutely not. I am in favor of less livestock.
hey r u planning on painting ur green corn picker Red or??? my dad bought red harrows to mount on back of flied cultivator, guess what color we had to paint them, yep jd green
It'll probably keeps it's ugly paint.
Boehm Farm just slap an Oliver sticker on her
oh ya he going green !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you grind a lot of corn on the cob with the husks for the cattle?
I sell most of the ear corn. We don't have good storage for it.
I didn't know if you kept it in wagons in a building for further use.
Your Instagram told on you lol can't wait for the first vid. I was hoping it was today lol
kory league he has an Instagram?
@@redneckninc.7310 yea he sure does. I'm not sure how to refind him on there, I'm a bit technology challenged.
Search for Boehm farm, you'll know when you find it.
@@boehmfarm4276 found it, thanks
cool
Great vid are there going to be more harvest vids?
Yes, still harvest and videos to shoot of it.
How is the harvesting going? Nice Anteater IH Tractor.
It's waiting on fab work for a down corn reel.
Im wondering how many times you filled the white plastic bin (to this point) in the raising of those pigs.
This was the third time, but I did use some of it to feed chickens.
👍👌🇨🇦❤
wow ur faster then jimmy johns oh nvm its a timelaspe
I'm just wondering why you have cattle in those green sheds?
They are bottle calves, they are in there two months, then get moved with the rest. It is a sanitary thing while they are young to keep them from touching. It stops the spread of diseases like pneumonia and scours.
@@boehmfarm4276 I learn something everyday! Thank you.
Add water and eggs and vegetable oil and you got a big ol pancake
hahah yep.
Nice logo
Thank you
First a sweatshirt... then a picker... what is going on here?!
Dont forget the chuck wagon.
That chuck wagon was around for a long time first....
I believe h&s still makes feed grinders mixers www.hsmfgco.com/products/grinder-mixer/index.html also art's way www.artsway-ag.com/products/grinder-mixers/7165-grinder-mixer/
Is there any thing wrong with that other grinder?
It needs the clutch knuckles for the unloading auger and a band around the fan. Dad keeps it for parts, but we have never needed anything.
Have you got a loader coming for the little ford
Yes, it's here, but a little low on the list to mount it.
Is it unusual to grow rye as a grain?
I don't see it too often around us.
You wont know what to do with that 2+2 tractor on the farm lol but dont beach it lol
I know, I won't. Will need bigger implements.

wait wait wait i thought u said u dont like john deere?? u are wearina jd hoodie tho🙃😱🤥🤔
I usually wear less than good clothes while farming so I don't care what happens to them.
some patch work needed on the grinder
Just a little. I know there's worse out there.
Does friend not help now seen him for while on videos
Just wait, Brad pops up.
So we would all like to know, why do you dislike John Deere's so much?
There will be a video on that eventually, it's been filmed, just waiting on editing.
first
