We used to stack our bales into heaps of 48s and lead them with a 48 56 bale carrier most of the time it worked but every now and again we had one little accident like maybe 3 bales left in the field mate its so interesting to see how you make hay in the States mate thank you for the education my friend

I always figured a bale cart is the way to go.

When you say bale cart you're talking about one of those baskets that you dump at the barn? Or an accumulator?

Great job I always look forward to your videos. I know it's a lot of extra work setting up the camera but it is greatly appreciated because my hay making days are behind me. Those were some big wind rows and your NH handled them. Thanks for sharing.

Glad you liked it. It is a lot of extra time and effort. I do enjoy it but it's tough to do it when it seems like no one watches sometimes. I hope to get a little better with my editing set up I'm going to start using before long.

Good looking patch of hay. Raked up nice too

Hi, I’m not being funny, but where did you get your hat from, I think it’s really good to keep the sun off and with the vents it’s pretty cool to wear, do you know the name of it? Greetings from Wymondham,Norfolk , UK 🇬🇧

www.dadant.com/catalog/m01049-dadant-white-plastic-helmet They're the best sun hat there is. We call them safari hats. Some call them bee keepers hats and sometimes they're called sun helmets. They're plastic so the don't get soaked with swear and they wipe off if you get them dirty. Has an adjustable band to fit your head and holds it off your head which makes it cooler.

What preservative are you using? I am considering setting up an applicator on my baler, same envirnmental conditions as you 30 miles away in Jackson County.

I use buffered propionic acid, I get mine from suchomski. It's an Agco product but about any buffered propionic acid will be the same.

@@thebalerman I have been thinking of using Silo Guard as it isn't corrosive.

My dad uses the silo king dry with a gandy box. I have thought about going to that. But I believe the acid works better to preserve but for borderline I think the dry is good and seems like it's good to put on everything. I don't like the corrosivness of the acid. I have really noticed much affect on the baler but where it drips on concrete it will make it break up and flake.

How long are your bales

You buying? I've been looking at rakes. But I can't complain about this one. It does good for what it is and I won't find one for less money.

A bar rake would do better we use a rotary rake to wide rows for your baler leave to much of your were closer I may

Yes I know. Just once you use a double wheel rake there is just no going back to spending all day raking. I'm by myself and can afford to spend all day raking then have no time to bale. Double rotary is way out of my price range. Been looking for a double hitch and a couple bar rakes. Or possibly one like my dad's but haven't found one close enough for the right price.
