I like the white truck he never drove before, looks like a semi-truck operating backward.
Impressive
Sonic is salty soul food :-)
Onyx: what do I do when I get to the end..... Zach: panic and scream 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great to see. I started in 3rd grade on a 450 farmall.
We had a bale wagon for many years. It’s wasn’t self propelled but it sure beat picking it up by hand. That’s what you buy when your a one man show.
Wow! He’s younger then me and bailing hay!?! Lucky!
Love your videos
Hello Zach Where is this at ? Nice hay operation.
Full support here watching.new friend here waiting my friend.
👍
7:45 the time stuff gets interesting
You're feeding glyphosate treated soil/product to your customer's horses/family members. Are you telling your customer base you are using RoundUp? The horse owners in my family would be none to happy to learn that the feed/soil was ever touched by glyphosate.
That’s how I learned to dra tractor and how to bale hay just took me to the tractor and dropped me off saying figure it out😂
"Bales" hay...nominative determinism.
my apologies mate I accidentally posted that comment without actually finishing it first (was half asleep (working graveyard)) but no offense intended. I can completely understand how that came off as being an asshat but I've since edited my comment and posted it in it's (intended) entirety so maybe now you'll see I'm on your side! What I get for YouTubing and falling asleep thus my apologies! That's some sick JD equipment though...wish I had started on something bigger than a JD4300
Nice.
At ten my dad told me to hook up the plow to the tractor and start spring plowing, 5 hours later he came over and said 11:30 at night, time to go to the house and get cleaned up for bed. I had been running the old 4000 Ford baling hay while he stacked the wagon since I was 7.
Is that a 1984 Chevy/ GMC pick up on those shirts 4x4?
That kid will not need collage for his carrier he’s already started his career
Very interesting Awesome. Amazed at the machinery so automated and precise.
A farm is the best place to raise a family. Kids learn so much more about life and good values than anywhere else. Love the videos.
Every time I see Oynx on camera I gain more and more faith in the younger generation.. let's me know we are not doomed
I used to irrigate at my grandpas ranch, those were long all night shifts. Minimum 12 hours. In Northern California we call the port holes, takeouts, and the area between the borders we call checks checks.
Set it on the bunny🐇!!!🚜
good job
The fluid that you put on the windrow drys the windrow out actually
I love the fact that you are so family centered in your videos. Also, what cameras do you use?
So that buddy seat looks a bit small!!!
Awesome
USDCAD SELL
Yeah what is a husk? 😆. Daisy dukes only!!!

This video brings back so many good memories for me. Running in the ditches as a kid. Taking my shift on the swather with my dad and brother, as we would run it around the clock until the all the hay was cut. Then, when the hay was ready, my uncle would wake me early to join him, another uncle and my grandpa to bale while the dew was on. Really great memories. Thanks for sharing this video. Onyx is a blessed young man.
Must be nice to bale hay where your have to worry about putting moisture into the hay, we have to worry about getting it out!
Best USworldsr ever
hi
the biggest issue for a millennial was the steering!!
Teach them young
Das your son have any old shoes like Nike shoes
Fun vlog.
It is good to see a young person learning. There seem to be a big difference between baling hay and putting up hay. Baling is a lot of tractor riding. Putting up hay is dust, sweat and hard work. Of course that was the 1950's.
impressive - thanks for sharing sir.
Adding moisture sounds strange to this Aussie, especially after seeing heat and moisture destroy hay bales (Centre of the bales turned to a fine white ash) and told of a barn fire that start because of moisture in the hay. Love the mini kenworth as a forklift, I've never seen anything like it before
Enjoyed seeing doing hay on steroids. My how have changed.
That boy is already smarter than 90% of the snowflakes graduating from college with B.S. useless degrees. Keep up the good parenting. I learned everything I know from the farm.
Just a darn minute !! All of your children have broken an arm ?? Just watched more videos and realize that I have seen three casts during that intense activity. Accident-prone or just plain "adventurous" offspring ?
hey i bale affeye
Wow Buckeye AZ. When I drove L.A. to Dallas twice a week we would jump off I-10 at Buckeye and take highway 85 down to Gila Bend and then catch I-8. We did that to miss all the traffic in Phoenix. It always looked like a nice, small town and over the years it started to really build up with Walmarts etc
The baling is genius!!!
What a great young man, you are doing thing right Dad!
The dairy and feedlot industry around here feeds tremendous quantities of hay. Hay is brought in from hundreds of miles to satisfy the need. Almost all large bales. Small bales are very expensive because of the labor shortage. Onyx could spend summers here and make college .funds in short order!
I used to stack bales at my neighbors farm, ( like 80 pounders) !...but I was never in Trevor's shape ! He hit the DNA jackpot ! lucky soandso !
I was so little when I started running the bailer. I had to stand my entire body on the clutch to stop the tractor and my dad would take it out of gear. Probably not the safest, but that’s being a farm kid. They get what ever work out of you they can ASAP. Wouldn’t have it any other way!
Seems like yesterday you had him driving the grain cart.. How time flies by..
I hope I don't sound racist, but Latinos are some of the hardest working people.
That's not racist at all. They're extremely hard workers!
I’m a farmer from the same state
why not get a bale baron way easier and quicker
its nice to see how diffrent hay is made from contry to contry. forexsample in danmark the bales we make her were i am from weights about 350 kg
I live in Cedar City, UT where that steam baler is made. You should check it out on your next trip to the west. SW Utah is great place year round.
I have been baling sice I was 8 and im 12
“my wife is pregnant” “Congratulations btw” “I haven’t told anyone one yet” “yea” nice one
I live in buckeye too I've been to that sonic
It would be great to see if he was actually driving like an old 3000 Ford, 35 Ferguson, whatever number John Deere and pulling a baler not an automated machine that stacks and loads etc. Its cool he gets to drive but... im just let down.
Nice one my first tractor job when I was 10 was rolling I started balling when I was 14 memories that last forever
0:44 "cute chickens" lol
Our farm does hay and I drive a 9770 massey ferguson swather
I started driving a tractor the day I graduated 3’rd grade. The next day I started plowing the fields. That was in 1969. Things were different back then, I don’t know if farmers start their kids working the fields that early these days.
My oldest was out in the fields helping with hay by age 5. He's 15 now and doesn't care much for driving, but he'll stack hay all day long!
It,s sad really i bet you make more money off youtube than one of your hard hands make a year . You farmers spend all that money on toys n machines but always go cheap on your help ! I never figured out why all your stuff is more important than all your help never meet a farmer who pays his help what they deserve .. very sad ! Yes sir iam a wore out farm hand ...
This wasn't my farm but the Bales family has multiple employees who have worked with them for decades. Seems to me like they must treat them well enough?
It makes me happy to see Onyx so happy farming with his dad and enjoying tractors!
Where do they live
Great to see the next generation learning the ways of the land. He’s the future of farming and ranching! It’s one of the things that makes America great. Proud of him!
That mower looks like it’s also a conditioner
Imagine how much nitrogen is in that soil if they crop alfalfa consistently
Thanks again Zack for showing us more farmers in other parts of the USA Truly enjoyed
Love the smile on Onyx’s face. Love the respect of how you two talk him and explain how things work and let him experience the usage of the equipment.
Interesting video Zach 👍👍
I worked a pipeline job in Buckeye in 08.
And why not many farm kids start running equipment early in life I for instance ran a chainsaw and wood lathes drill press's rock saws many examples
How you keep a eye on your dogs went driving , always scared you hit one.. Or they just know to stay out of the way
remember it's not child labor if you don't pay them.
thats a joke, don't take it seriously.
Hey from Romania 😊
Hi
good job onyx nice to see your dad enjoyed the visit zack
My grass is not even green yet, and urs is ready to cut? How hot is there?
Great 10 yr Old baling Hay Vlog, thanks for sharing
Good Question - Onxy: "What should I do when I get to the end?" Zach: "Panic and Scream."
Onyx looks like his mother, has your smile.
In Australia we call those borders check banks and they are fun as fuck to jump on a motorbike
Every boy should get to drive a tractor. For me, it was driving the log skidder at forestry camp.
Am a new subscriber I use to do that back in 1972 use to help my uncle i was 8 years old driving a 1956 Ford pickup with a 100 gallons of diesel in the back taking lunch to my uncle and the other operator while they eat I use to fill up the tractor's with diesel and then I could operate the massi Ferguson or the international turbo those were the days then my father dragged me to California and turned to a gangster a mannes to society but my ex wife kinda save me and become a certify Ford technician
Their idea of "running a baler" is a lot different than when I worked for farms as a teenager 45 years ago. Trailers had to be hand stacked, then hand loaded onto the conveyor to the barn loft, then hand stacked again in the loft. Farmers paid by the bail, so they maxed out the bales and used wire to bind them instead of twine - straw bales went about 95-105lbs, hay as much as 135-140lbs. This usually in 90* heat, wearing flannel long sleeved shirts to keep from getting scratched raw. Weren't any 10 year olds in a field then.
Great video 📹 zach 👏..I'm from the Yorkshire dales in the UK originally a farmer 🚜 there had a bright orange ALLIS charmers baler ...used to love haytime as a kid..some strong 💪 men throwing them bales around for sure lol 😆!!..he's a great driver your son ..
חזק מעוד, זק
Welcome to Arizona we get a little amount of rain
Love the tours!
Yep..............I STILL love field trip days! It was neat to see the Bales operation. I'd never seen such a large scale hay operation before this. We grew up in a farming community, so I've seen 100 acres fields of hay being harvested, but never on the scale these folks are at!
Hey, I’m only 2 and 1/2 years old but I was considering some advice on starting a farm
Zach, make sure there's a 6th generation farmer and please DO NOT sell to Bill Gates (THE largest farm land owner)
A bailer with a hydraulic kicker and a hay wagon is much more fun when your a kid driving the tractor. Great video.
