Great family!😇!😇!😇!

Congratulations. Every farmer should have an excavator

An excavator is so versatile...at least mine is (Kubota 040-4)...but get a thumb for the bucket. They're worth every penny.

❤❤❤❤❤

Loved watching the chick's hatch. Thanks for sharing. Always enjoy your updates.

Never a dull moment!! That’s what I loved about farming!!

Ronda is pretty impressive. She taught McKenzie how to shift the semi a few years ago and now she is figuring out how to use the excavator. 😊 I managed to help my wife in the kitchen after having my knee replacement surgery on March 4. Ham, scalloped potatoes, sweet potato and carrots are the vegetables. Cheesecake is the dessert. Her knee surgery was Nov. 6. I am glad that Easter is a bit later this year. We watched Live Stream for Resurrection Sunday. Our church had an Easter Brunch. . . . Those must be Easter chicks. 😊

You are exactly right she is an impressive lady. I can run most any pieces of equipment that I can get my hands on but I'm not worth much in the kitchen. I don't mind gardening but I don't do any canning freezing or putting away... I think it helps that she is a farm girl.

Right on! My wife helps me out quite a bit but has no interest in running a skid/ excavator

Great job running the skid steers Ronda and Kevin

Nice excavator. Kevin was pretty smooth on the operation of it!! The first big hurdle to learning something new is the willingness to try !!! And Rhonda you showed that and did great!!! To be a better operator you need three things, practice, practice and more practice ! Please be careful !! Have a blessed Resurrection Sunday !!! Thank YOU JESUS !!!! Eddy

Great job driving the excavator Ronda

Great video Ronda Kevin and family

Nice looking excavator Kevin Ronda and family

Yes just drive in the tractor tractor tracks on your next pass

Kevin you need a bulldozer now to keep up with Todd Family Farm. That excavator would have been the ticket for the Challenger cab.. .Ronda I hope allyour chicks and garden have amazing results. God bless you.

Nice buy on the Excavator. It takes some time getting a good feel for those, you and Kevin did good for the first time. Your getting the birds a good place to stay and roost. Good luck with the new buy, I hope you all had a blessed Easter and a great week ahead.

big boys toys handy machine love the chicks take care you guys Rx

Nice addition.

My comment for you all is get a Hydraulic Thumb attachment for your excavator!! That will be so handy!! Also, Does that Case excavator have an adjustable house? Some did, it helps to level you up if digging on a slope!! Great buy and good luck, Vic!!

You are a Jack of all trades there's nothing you can't do great job 👏 👍🏻Happy Easter to you and your family

You will love it with a little more training 😊

Looks like a great machine great addition to the farm

Thanks for the video, Rhonda! Happy Easter to you folks! 😀

Happy Resurrection Day!!

Don’t know why but farmers love playing with excavators

A little thing you can do when you want to turn when you are not carrying anything on the bucket is you put the bucket on the ground and lift the front or back of the track off the ground and then spin the tracks around that way you don't have as much weight on the track when you're trying to turn.

Happy Easter 🐇 from northeast wi.

Hello there. Case are a pretty good machine. I have a Daewoo 1:30. It a old machine now. But rums well. You will get used to it. The more you drive it. You need to check the final drive's for oil. And change it regular. Iv been driving diggers since I was 8 years old.

You guys sure make a lot of progress, gonna be interesting to see what you have planned for the digger. Hope you all have a blessed week!

Happy Easter to you and your family Rhonda!

Thanks

Keep it up Rhonda . Pretty soon youll be running that thing like a pro. Its all in the practice.

Happy Easter from Ireland, good luck with your excavator

Happy Easter. I wish i had a machine like that to clean up my yard 😏

If you're going to buy an excavator you need to get one with a thumb on it it comes in very very very very very very helpful

Thumbs are rubbish. Better to buy a thumb bucket. The thumb is part of the bucket.. thumbs on the stick rattle , extra weight and only have have half range as a thumb bucket.

Rhonda, you keep up with the excavator, and soon you will be a pro!

I have a kabelco 140 sweet machine, and you don't need oversize permit. Thumb makes a big difference. Case is good

i took my black lab to my grandmas a couple years ago. and i took the 4 wheeler and my lab was just following me and he wondered off. all of a sudden he lets out a yep high tailing it to grandmas house.i turned around ran to the house to grab the gun thinking badger went out there where he started yepping and all i found was a turkey sitting on her nest.she was not happy to see me . i didnt shoot her but she chaced me a little ways down the field. she was just protecting her babies.

Good job , put that iron to work

you could use backhoe make house bigger or plow garden with it lol.

Happy Easter !!! We tried those wood pellets and didn’t like them Shavings last longer and keep you out of water better. I am glad that you got the Case excavator

Thanks! So far, I'm not overly impressed with the pellets. I don't think they're as comfortable for the chicks.

Looks fun I'm a pedal steel guitar player I'm sure I would learn it quickly 😂❤

We bought an older caterpillar 205 excavator it was cheap and we had to do a few small maintenance jobs on it but it’s working well now and I love using it and I think it’s going to be a handy tool around the farm

A beautiful day full of hope for He is risen! Nice toy Kevin! Are there any plans for expanding the pond to retain more water for irrigation? The excavator should come in handy when Kenzie wants to move her coop home. Have a safe and blessed Resurrection day and week.

Happy Easter Ronda Is this Excavator something that Kevin asked the Easter Bunny for? lol just be careful operating it until you get totally comfortable with it But I know you will have fun and it will be a great addition to the farm😊

nice new toy. Rhonda did I hear a slight grunt or grove when you climbed in that thing the 1st time? "There's no ladder "

Ask yourself how many moms have operated an excavator.👍

Hi you a quick hitch which mean you can the off the bucket when doing any lifting plus you can change bucket sizes buckets.like 12''18''24''36''which would the main digging bucket ie loading bulk on to lorrys ,which look like the one on there at the moment. then there a grading bucket 5 foot/ 48'' with no teeth just blade on it .ì drive them full time in the UK the biggest I,'ve operated was a 100,50 ton cat which had extra weights which had a 28 meter reach , I drive wheeled or tracked machines .That looks like fs 160 which would 16 /18 ton machine .sound like the diesel filter needs changing that a good machine ye bought there good luck with it .What I say to operator learning to operator is use finger tips on controls till you get used to them .That size machine could flatten a car with two sweeps stay clear of them if you can,t see the operator he can,t see you stay clear minimum ten meter there a lot of blind spot from the operator seat ie down the right side and behind the cab we've started putting c cameras in them so you can see behind you, as people be come placecent while operating them. .

Real good excavator you ca6n do every thi6ng

Baby calves are growing like a weed also.
