Hanen LSF-16 Automatic Feeder Setup

I set up my new, used Hanen automatic cattle feeder! I had legs welded on to keep it off the ground to help it stay out of the mud and in good condition!

Expect a new video every Sunday at 11AM Central!
How Farms Work by Ryan Kuster is a KZread channel based in rural Potosi, Wisconsin. Our mission is to teach those who didn't grow up on a farm what the farming life is like. These videos show the Kuster family working together raising cattle and crops. We believe everyone who wants to know more about farming should be able to share the farming experience with us and we look to educate the world on many essential agriculture topics.
How Farms Work takes place on ~1,100 acres with around 75-200 cattle at any given time. Four John Deere tractors are currently used on the farm, which are a 4020, 4640, 7600, and 8235R.

    I have to say that I like this style of video "editing" ?? where you take several weeks/months to create a video on 1 topic. I'm sure you have put out other videos during the time sense you bought the feeder but held back the giving us 5 minutes of info in each video but saved it all back to give us a more complete story in 1 shot. Very nice :)

    Have you tried crushed concrete for your paths/driveways instead of gravel? I had a few forest "roads" made/resurfaced with crushed concrete almost 10 years ago, and it holds up really well. The new logo looks very nice. Thanks for the video.

    Could mount a WiFi cam on that feeder since it's got power. Could also add another panel if it ever needed it.

    Believe it or not, black is a better emitter of heat *because* it's a better absorber of heat... but in this case, the white will probably help keep it cooler due to the reduced absorption in the first place.

    The layoffs ect is because farmers aren't buying new equipment,all people layed off were pool employees under a year and only 2 products are going to Mexico you make it sound like all production is going there not true. John Deere just spent millions on land in Indiana😮,30 % wage increase probably didn't help over there UAW $30 an hour

    If your goal is to get the heifers to come at the doing of the bell, cut ration into 3 Servings and increase feeding times to 3. Better yet go 1/4 ration 4 times. Make sure bell is as loud as possible. Keep the cow who first ate at bell with others to demonstrate correct behavior to heifers. Good luck.

    Don´t you have to grind or at least crack the kernals? I would suspect that the kernals would go through the degestive system of a ruminat undigested.

    Breed your heifers to calve before the cows. A 2 year old is the hardest stage of life to breed back. This way they have a longer time frame to breed back without getting behind the cow group.
