Me this morning: "idk why I almost jackknifed the feed mixer twice and can't pull this 10 ton load of feed up this hill."

Also me: uses 2wd maxxum with exactly zero added weights or chains to run the tmr mixer

@PlsntVlyFarmer Local motor shop has a winch that sits on the door opening and is much easier than a rope. Last fall, suspensionn cable snapped on the 24x92 as it was almost to the top for filling. Totaled it and took 3 months for the new one to show up. Every piece was pulled up after filling

@PlsntVlyFarmer That's much easier done when full and replacing unloader parts when empty!

[Jacob Muhlenkamp @MuhlenkampJacob]

@PlsntVlyFarmer Have an almost complete one in the shed I pulled out of the old 60' stave before I knocked it in to make room for a calving shed and one still hanging in a 72' but retired since the fill pipe and spreader were wore out. Used to run 6 silos. Another 4k goes on a drive over pile

@vacas_negras Looks good to me

When the neighbor calls about some bred heifers for sale, the checkbook somehow finds its way into my pocket and the livestock trailer follows me there when I go "just to look"

Me: *makes plans, while feeding cows, for a productive day*

Silo unloader: "fuck you, fix me."

[Jacob Muhlenkamp @MuhlenkampJacob]

If you're looking to sell me some bred heifers because you're pen's full and they're 24+ mos old, it's no wonder you're full

@vogeliowa @randywedo57 @GoddessofGrain @iamyourfarmer Peanut butter doesn't claim to be a butter substitute

[Jacob Muhlenkamp @MuhlenkampJacob]

@vogeliowa And I kinda miss it

[Jacob Muhlenkamp @MuhlenkampJacob]

@vogeliowa Used to spend 2 weeks punching put straw bales when that's all we bedded with from newborns to cows at the dairy. Hay was all rounds besides one load of 3rd cut smalls for the calves in the old barn. Did it all on 8x16 wagons no back rack and the one dreaded 20'er

@plotner_mike I've got a love/hate relationship with silos. I love when they work and hate working on them.

@4fingerdthpunch "Your terms are acceptable"

Grain farmers know their seed variety and plant date on their fields like dairy farmers know each animals sire, dam, and DIM.
