  • Some days are just harder than others - - burning down fields are never fun! Especially when it’s the second one I’ve had just this season!!!
    Come mow, rake, PLANT and Bale with us…
    Jason steals my tractor for a while & re plants the home 40 acres with some forage sourgum in hopes to catch just a little bit of rain to grow something for our cow calf pairs this winter -
    We’re in the mist of the worst drought since 2012. But we’re continuing to plunge on!!
    How many SMALL SQUARE bales HAVE WE PUT IP SINCE JULY 7??? Comment below. And I’ll let send a goodie bag to the closest guesser!!

    I'm almost 80 years old. I know some things about the hardships of farming. It's been awhile yes, but the memories are still fresh in my mind like it was yesterday. I want you know I'm praying for you and your family and your farm and asking God to bring you emotional relief and peace of mind and to ease your physical stress. I remind myself all the time that he is in control. I know for certain, if it wasn't for my faith in him... I don't know where I would be right now. I don't know if I would be right now. My dear lady, I'm praying for you all there and what you're dealing with. I'm not going to tell you to be strong, because their are times when you got nothing left but prayers and tears... and that's okay. I've had a lot of those over the years❤🙏

    Kayla people understand you all are under a ton of pressure with the drought. Trust me people who continually watch get it and understand that you cannot always talk. Trust that sometimes we are ok on this end if you just show mowing / bailing with nothing said. We will still watch for what is just a couple minutes for us but can be a few hours of quiet reflection for you. Sending you and Jason my best wishes and I hope that the rain that came through this first week of August in your area helped.

    @mikedickson1894 Před rokem

    I'm not a farmer, but I have been in a seasonal business that was dependent on dry weather. It gets tough sometimes. I have experienced tough times, and I had to make a career change to survive. Sometimes God puts obstacles in our way to get us to make a change, not to continue to suffer where we are. PRAY FOR His guidance for what it is that He wants you to do. Prayers for you and your family! Don't stress out over this, everything is temporary.

    As a suggestion take a long a pale of small water balloons, Add a little liquid dish soap. The soap reduces the surface tension of the water and helps it penetrate. Also have a shovel.

    Keep your head up girl, it's been a long time ago but I remember when there was a drought in 1980. It seemed like it didn't rain for about a year. The drought was so severe that the two rivers we were next too stopped flowing. It was a very difficult time so I feel your pain

  • @joecarlson6428
    @joecarlson6428 Před rokem +2

    I think you have done around 16,000. At some point you and Jason will need to figure out when the cost (financially, emotionally, and physically) of cutting and balling is not worth the effort. The Welkers, in Montana, stopped planting last year as there was no soil moisture and no rain, seeds wouldn't germinate. They were all very discouraged. When rain came so did hail. I enjoy your honesty and do not mind when you cry. Your are not playing baseball (movie reference: A league of their own). Take care and be safe.

  • @dudleyglass2845
    @dudleyglass2845 Před rokem +1

    I like the idea of the double packer fork setup, and the fact that it's more "durable" then the 1840 I just don't agree with the 20% more. I wish they would of made it stroke 120 spm vs keeping it the same as the 1840 because you really won't get 20% more if your trying to keep the flake count the same. If it stroked 20% faster I would trade both 1840's in one 2 new 1842's!

    • @ChroniclesofKayla
      @ChroniclesofKayla  Před rokem +1

      I jus wish we had the hay we normally do- to really “test” it - but so far - I’ve noticed a few differences- especially when I do try to run too much through her !!! Takes a lot for her to “clog” up.

    • @ChroniclesofKayla
      @ChroniclesofKayla  Před rokem +1

      Yes it is!! And she’s the BOMB for square baling!!! I mean I’ve used her to rake, plant and will be possibly using her to chop silage next week (it’s debatable depending on things) / but I don’t think I’ll be going back to a JD.
