This channel never get boring to watch Thanks for posting as often as you do I know it's a lot of work plus all your other chores!

You should ask the chopping guys if they would let you give a tour of their machine. It's pretty cool.

I remember well as a teenager bailing hay for a local farmer. Pick it up, throw it on the truck, bring the truck back to the barn and unload and stack all by hand and getting absolutely covered in fine particles of hay. I was always so fricken itchy with a thick coat of sweat. I smelled worse than the cows in the I miss it. I learned a lot about work ethic working on the farm. Good family values too.

You and your Dad run a really tight operation, Eric! I enjoy watching!

It’s always nice to wake up to a new 20 minute video from Eric!

You're an optimist, Eric. You see the silo as half full. Excellent!

I remember that trip up the silo every morning at 4:30 AM to throw down the mornings silage for the dairy cows after milking. We weren't fortunate enough to have a unloader to do that for us. Guess that's why my dad had two sons.

Silos seem like a huge PITA! Job well done!

I like Ethan, he seems like a solid kid. Not too many young people like that would show up to a farm to work everyday.

Hey my fellow dairy farmer, well I’m retired lol but I live my younger years through this show

I'm System Administrator ( IT World ) and sometimes i wish i could leave my damn chair and go farming and working like you do. Much respect, im still saving for my futur Hobby Farm/Ranch. Keep up the good work Eric.

Eric, you are an awesome worker. You and your dad did a great job. Thank you for the amazing video

We are chopping first cutting in like 10 min or so. Your vid is perfect while waiting on the chopper to show up!

Great video today, enjoy watching you and your dad get things done. Brings back good memories, you guys be safe and take care of your family. God bless from San Diego Ca

It’s amazing how much work goes into just getting the feed right. Around here (south Alabama) folks raise beef cattle they just put em out to pasture... Honestly makes me appreciate the Dairy products I consume.

[jonnies]

The money and expertise needed for your equipment alone is astounding. What a complicated operation and run by just a few people. Amazing and impressive. Wow!!!!

[Its_Me]

You and Ethan had your work cut out for you in leveling the feed in that silo. God bless you both. You both work so hard.

I'm finding more and more that chopping hay is getting more common. 20 years ago I don't know of anyone that did. I suppose these mixer feeders and TMRs are the reason. Those weren't around in the '80's. At least not in my area. I always have and still enjoy filling silo. Thanks for bringing me along.
