The curved design of the chute is highlighted as a low-stress feature, as cattle cannot see their surroundings, reducing fear and resistance. Once a steer is securely in the headgate, the farmer performs band castration using a Calicrate Pro Bander. This method involves placing a rubber band around the testicles, pulling them tightly, and using a ratcheting mechanism to cut off the blood supply, causing the testicles to atrophy and fall off.

Manure from the cows further enriches the soil, embodying regenerative farming principles. https://www.youtube.com/embed/5Us1QwGy5iM 24 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/america-first-farmers-on-welfare-rancher-talks-about-failing-farm-v14605407/monitor-livestock-and-discuss-farm-operations-c3946339 2026-10-24T03:32:10.533Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5Us1QwGy5iM/hqdefault.jpg Monitor Livestock and Discuss Farm Operations — America First? Farmers on Welfare? Rancher talks abo The farmer continuously monitors his herd of Black Angus cattle, including the bull (Donny) and a guard donkey (Tammy), who protects the livestock from predators like coyotes and mountain lions. He also checks on newborn calves. Throughout these observations, he reflects on the principles of regenerative farming, which focuses on building soil health through animal integration, and discusses the economic realities for small farmers, such as the low profit margins on beef sales despite high retail prices. He shares his personal struggle with Alpha-Gal allergy, a condition caused by a Lone Star tick bite that prevents him from eating red meat, ironically on a cattle farm. He advocates for supporting local farmers and making informed food choices. https://www.youtube.com/embed/5Us1QwGy5iM 53 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/richard-petty-visits-the-farm-today-he-just-laughed-at-my-clunker-v14605469 2026-10-24T03:30:33.755Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TsDUP0lPTeA/hqdefault.jpg RICHARD PETTY Visits the farm today!

Two distinct levers are designated for controlling the batwing mower's components. One set of levers is used to individually raise and lower the large, hinged 'wings' on either side of the mower, allowing them to be deployed for wide-area cutting or folded for transport and maneuvering in tighter spaces. A separate, dedicated lever controls the vertical position of the main central mowing deck, enabling the operator to set the desired cutting height or lift it clear of the ground. These adjustments are critical for both safe transport and achieving the desired cut for the terrain, whether preparing a new meadow site or managing an existing one. https://www.youtube.com/embed/EPIuF6E686s 14 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/planting-winter-forage-for-the-cows-i-hope-this-works-v14605478/drive-tractor-for-efficient-mowing-c3799019 2026-10-23T00:25:25.630Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/EPIuF6E686s/hqdefault.jpg Drive Tractor for Efficient Mowing — Planting winter forage for the Cows!

The tractor described in the video features a robust transmission with 16 forward and 16 reverse gears, offering considerable flexibility for various tasks and terrain. For mowing, the operator selects a specific gear range, such as 'medium two' or 'medium three,' which provides the best quality of cut. This typically corresponds to a ground speed of approximately 5 miles per hour. This speed allows the mower, a 15.5-foot batwing model, to efficiently process vegetation while maintaining a clean and even cut across large areas, which is crucial for preparing a wildflower seedbed or maintaining established meadow health. Continuously observe the cutting action and adjust driving parameters as needed for consistent results. https://www.youtube.com/embed/EPIuF6E686s 55 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-little-farm-project-took-forever-barndominium-shop-project-v14605479 2026-10-24T03:28:36.373Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5xasK2TbRxQ/hqdefault.jpg This little FARM PROJECT took FOREVER!

He plans to spread the grass seed on pastures where the cows are actively grazing. This method utilizes the cows' hooves to naturally work the grass seed into the soil, eliminating the need for additional equipment to incorporate the seeds, ensuring no seed is wasted. He also clarifies his chosen application rate of approximately four bags per acre, noting this is less than the six bags per acre often recommended by seed professionals for new pasture seeding. This reduced rate is suitable because he is overseeding an already healthy pasture rather than establishing a completely new one. He anticipates that ryegrass will germinate first, followed by clover, and then fescue, based on the seed mix composition. https://www.youtube.com/embed/-kW43WGx-N8 39 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/are-tym-tractors-junk-truth-might-surprise-you-v14605487 2026-10-23T00:26:36.820Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mfSren0rxz4/hqdefault.jpg Are TYM Tractors JUNK?

He highlights that he chose this specific model due to his belief in the TYM brand and its capability to handle heavy farm tasks. He notes that while he uses the loader for basic turning maneuvers near fences, he has never used it to lift heavy materials, preferring to use a skid steer loader for that purpose to avoid overstressing the tractor's axles, hydraulics, and cylinders.

How to DIY Repair/Replace Torn/Worn Motorcycl The video begins with the creator introducing his Honda Foreman 500 ATV, highlighting its vinyl seat that has been exposed to the elements since 2016, resulting in noticeable cracks and tears. He emphasizes the cost-saving benefit of re-covering the seat himself compared to buying a new one. He then presents the necessary materials: an old, damaged ATV seat, new vinyl fabric (he specifically chose an off-grey/black color with a premium, stretchy backing), a small flat-tip screwdriver, a razor blade or box cutter knife, T50 staples (specifically 1/4 inch), a staple gun (he uses a standard one but later recommends an upholstery stapler), and a couple of pairs of pliers (needle-nose pliers and angled cutters). He briefly shows the underside of the seat, explaining how staples secure the cover. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iOucZZqA4DY 228 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/10-fix-how-to-diy-repairreplace-tornworn-motorcycle-or-atv-seat-v14605494/remove-old-vinyl-cover-c3946341 2026-10-24T03:32:10.595Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iOucZZqA4DY/hqdefault.jpg Remove Old Vinyl Cover — $10 FIX!

How to DIY Repair/Replace Torn/Worn Motorcycle or ATV Sea Once all the staples are removed, the old vinyl cover can be easily peeled away from the foam base. Inspect the foam for any damage, such as excessive wear or mildew. The creator noted his foam was slightly moist but not damaged, suggesting it would be fine once aired out. Carefully separate the old cover from the foam. Make note of how the foam base curls or rolls over the edges of the plastic seat pan, as this is how the new cover will need to be positioned for a proper fit. Then, use the old cover as a template to measure and cut the new vinyl material. Lay the old cover on top of the new vinyl, and using scissors or a box cutter, cut the new material, leaving a generous margin of several inches around all sides. It's always better to cut more than you need, as excess can be trimmed later, but additional material cannot be added. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iOucZZqA4DY 204 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/10-fix-how-to-diy-repairreplace-tornworn-motorcycle-or-atv-seat-v14605494/stretch-and-staple-new-vinyl-c3946343 2026-10-24T03:32:10.595Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iOucZZqA4DY/hqdefault.jpg Stretch and Staple New Vinyl — $10 FIX! How to DIY Repair/Replace Torn/Worn Motorcycle or ATV Seat Before applying the new vinyl, gently warm the material using a heat gun. This makes the vinyl more pliable and easier to stretch, which is essential for achieving a smooth, wrinkle-free finish, especially around the seat's curves. Keep the heat gun moving constantly to avoid blistering or damaging the vinyl. Position the warmed new vinyl over the foam seat, ensuring it's centered and aligned with the main curves. The goal is to start stretching it over the most prominent curved area first. Start by temporarily stapling the vinyl in a few key spots (e.g., front, back, sides) to hold it in place. Then, systematically work your way around the seat, continuously stretching the vinyl as tightly as possible before driving each staple. The creator uses a standard staple gun, but notes that an upholstery stapler would provide much better results by driving staples more flush and preventing wrinkles. If wrinkles occur, carefully remove the staples, re-stretch the area, and re-staple until the desired tautness is achieved. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iOucZZqA4DY 297 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/10-fix-how-to-diy-repairreplace-tornworn-motorcycle-or-atv-seat-v14605494/trim-excess-and-final-installation-c3946344 2026-10-24T03:32:10.595Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iOucZZqA4DY/hqdefault.jpg Trim Excess and Final Installation — $10 FIX! How to DIY Repair/Replace Torn/Worn Motorcycle or ATV After all the staples are in place, use scissors or a box cutter knife to carefully trim any excess vinyl material around the edges of the seat pan. The goal is to create a clean, finished look, ensuring no loose flaps or uneven edges remain. Once trimmed, take the newly re-covered seat and re-install it on your Honda Foreman 500 ATV, securing it with its original mounting points. The creator notes that despite his best efforts, some minor wrinkles remain due to the limitations of his standard staple gun, but he expresses satisfaction with the functional improvement and cost savings. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iOucZZqA4DY 62 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dont-trust-the-bull-farming-farmer-v14605495 2026-10-23T00:27:09.334Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HpmKoBA-HQY/hqdefault.jpg Don't Trust the BULL!! #farming #farmer This project guides you through the process of safely and effectively herding cattle from an open area into a designated pen or pasture.

Drive the tractor into the pasture with both the broadcast seeder and drag harrow attached. Engage the PTO for the broadcast seeder and activate the seed spreading function. Lower the drag harrow to its working position. Operate the tractor at a steady, relatively fast speed (e.g., about 5-6 mph). The broadcast seeder will evenly distribute the 'Pasture Mix' seed, while the drag harrow simultaneously roughs up the soil, breaks up manure pads, and covers the freshly sown seeds. Make multiple passes in overlapping patterns to ensure full coverage of the pasture. The goal is to distribute the seed uniformly and ensure good seed-to-soil contact for optimal germination, especially before predicted rain. https://www.youtube.com/embed/TPg_sAPaKf8 199 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/got-bobcat-tractors-best-of-equip-2025-farmers-edition-v14605501 2026-10-24T03:28:55.379Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TCDhkliflnU/hqdefault.jpg Got BOBCAT Tractors?

He also briefly addresses online conspiracy theories about the condition, clarifying it's a naturally occurring, rampant disease in his region (North-Central North Carolina, Southwest Virginia, West Virginia, and Missouri). https://www.youtube.com/embed/6R6tWZaqyVc 82 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tick-bite-that-changed-my-life-forever-6-weeks-later-this-happened-v14605527/recognizing-personal-symptoms-and-tick-exposure-c3944327 2026-10-24T03:29:00.264Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6R6tWZaqyVc/hqdefault.jpg Recognizing Personal Symptoms and Tick Exposure — TICK BITE that Changed My Life Forever | 6 Weeks L The speaker recounts the specific symptoms he personally experienced, which included persistent fatigue, gastrointestinal issues such as an upset stomach, feeling full quickly after eating, and excessively rapid digestion. He also described a concerning sensation of his throat closing. He emphasizes the critical importance of investigating any potential tick bites or unusual symptoms, particularly if the bite area shows signs of inflammation, a bull's-eye rash, or persistent itching, as tick-borne illnesses can develop within 24-48 hours. His own diagnosis stemmed from finding a tick in his navel that had remained attached for longer than this critical timeframe. https://www.youtube.com/embed/6R6tWZaqyVc 101 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tick-bite-that-changed-my-life-forever-6-weeks-later-this-happened-v14605527/implementing-strict-dietary-elimination-c3944331 2026-10-24T03:29:00.264Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6R6tWZaqyVc/hqdefault.jpg Implementing Strict Dietary Elimination — TICK BITE that Changed My Life Forever | 6 Weeks Later thi To manage his Alpha-Gal Syndrome, the speaker underwent a radical dietary overhaul. He completely eliminated all mammalian meat products, including beef, pork, lamb, rabbit, venison, elk, and bison. This extended to avoiding most dairy, except for small, carefully introduced portions of aged cheese, and steering clear of sauces or dressings containing dairy. His new diet focused heavily on alternative protein sources such as fish (including salmon, which he can catch himself) and various poultry (chicken). He also increased his intake of fruits and vegetables, specifically mentioning watermelons and blueberries, as he notes that 'you never met a person that got fat eating fruit.' https://www.youtube.com/embed/6R6tWZaqyVc 81 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tick-bite-that-changed-my-life-forever-6-weeks-later-this-happened-v14605527/adopting-new-eating-habits-supplementation-and-gut-reset-c3944335 2026-10-24T03:29:00.264Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6R6tWZaqyVc/hqdefault.jpg Adopting New Eating Habits, Supplementation, and Gut Reset — TICK BITE that Changed My Life Forever Complementing his new diet, the speaker adopted optimized eating habits. He transitioned to eating smaller portions throughout the day, aiming for three to five meals, and ensuring a good high-protein breakfast. A key change was stopping food intake at least three hours before bedtime, ensuring he went to bed feeling "a little hungry" rather than full, which he found beneficial for digestion and overall well-being. To perform a "total gut reset," he initially completed a two-day fasting period. Furthermore, he reduced his caffeine consumption and introduced daily probiotic supplements and a multivitamin (specifically a "Mega-Men" vitamin) into his routine. https://www.youtube.com/embed/6R6tWZaqyVc 66 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tick-bite-that-changed-my-life-forever-6-weeks-later-this-happened-v14605527/integrating-exercise-ongoing-monitoring-and-longterm-adaptation-c3944346 2026-10-24T03:29:00.264Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/6R6tWZaqyVc/hqdefault.jpg Integrating Exercise, Ongoing Monitoring, and Long-Term Adaptation — TICK BITE that Changed My Life After roughly five weeks of adhering to his new dietary and lifestyle protocol, the speaker reported significant positive health outcomes.

He reveals that he has been feeling unwell for months, experiencing various unexplained symptoms. He then shares his diagnosis: Alpha-Gal Syndrome, which he describes as a condition where he can no longer eat beef, pork, lamb, or any meat product from hoofed animals. He also mentions a potential allergy to simply being around cattle. He details his symptoms, including a lump in his throat, tightness in his throat and chest, waking up panicking and unable to breathe, and reflux-like gastric issues without heartburn. He recounts how he visited doctors, initially his gastroenterologist, and that he has a background as a registered nurse. He explains that the condition is caused by a bite from the Lone Star Tick, prevalent in his area of North Carolina due to an overpopulation of deer. He emphasizes the importance of inspecting for ticks and shares a personal anecdote about finding a tick in his belly button, which he believes triggered his symptoms after he struggled to remove it. He urges viewers to be vigilant about tick bites and to seek medical attention if they experience similar symptoms like fatigue, rashes, itching, or throat closing, which can lead to anaphylactic shock. He mentions that while the allergy might clear up in a year or two, as it did for his stepfather, there could be lasting after-effects. The farmer expresses concern about how this condition will affect his ability to continue his dream of farming and interacting with his cattle, as even exposure to beef being cooked can trigger a reaction. He concludes by asking for thoughts, prayers, and input from his community, hoping for increased energy levels and continued progress, and stresses the importance of checking children for ticks. https://www.youtube.com/embed/YTPxHmbEMHo 838 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/predator-strikes-the-farm-again-v14605549 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FPpQLPOnfbo/hqdefault.jpg Predator Strikes the Farm Again!

The farmer travels on his ATV to the electric fence to check its status, picking up an old 'Auto Silver' car battery from 2015 along the way. He highlights his practice of repurposing old car batteries to power his Zareba 15-mile electric fence controller, emphasizing its longevity and cost-effectiveness. Upon inspecting a section of the polybraid electric fence line, which is crucial for his rotational grazing system, he discovers that the polybraid wire is broken (likely from being run over by the mower). He performs a quick repair by tying a simple knot to re-establish tension and electrical continuity in the fence line. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SsBrCBveWo4 357 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/who-hit-the-fence-this-time-fall-farm-plans-are-changing-fast-v14605557/execute-rotational-grazing-and-pasture-improvement-c3945859 2026-10-24T03:31:28.228Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SsBrCBveWo4/hqdefault.jpg Execute Rotational Grazing and Pasture Improvement — Who hit the fence this time? 🤦 Fall farm plans The farmer drives his ATV to the location where his herd of cattle is waiting to be moved. He explains his rotational grazing strategy, which involves dividing large pastures into smaller 3/4 to 1-acre "wedges" or paddocks using temporary polybraid fences. He details his "no-back fence" approach, where cows are moved to fresh grass daily, but the old fence lines are left down, allowing them access to previously grazed areas for water and shade. This strategy prevents overgrazing and promotes pasture recovery. He then physically guides his herd into a new, lush paddock by opening a gate, ensuring none are left behind. He also outlines the post-grazing weed management plan, which involves using a batwing mower to cut down undesirable plants like ragweed and sericea lespedeza after grazing, enriching the soil with carbon and promoting the growth of desirable cool-season grasses for the fall. He also explains his winter hay distribution method, where hay bales are rolled out directly onto pastures, acting as natural fertilizer to return carbon and nutrients to the soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SsBrCBveWo4 552 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/totally-electric-zero-turn-mower-8-hour-run-time-mowing-tractor-v14605558 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Rdnki3LFz_A/hqdefault.jpg Totally Electric Zero Turn Mower 8 hour run time! #mowing #tractor This video demonstrates the capabilities of a Toro Z Master Revolution zero-turn mower, focusing on its quiet operation, robust cutting performance in challenging conditions, and precise maneuvering around obstacles like trees.

Homemade Tomato Sauce from Scratch! After washing, place the tomatoes on a clean cutting board. Using a sharp knife, ideally a fillet knife for precision, carefully slice each tomato. Roma tomatoes can be cut in half or quarters. Larger slicing tomatoes should be quartered. The goal is to open up the tomatoes, remove the stem end, and prepare them for cooking. Keep your knives sharp, as a dull knife can be more dangerous and lead to accidents. The presenter explicitly states that a sharp knife is preferred because a dull knife leads to more cuts. Collect all cut tomatoes into one or two large stockpots, depending on the quantity. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QSi5JqwYYEI 167 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secret-ingredients-for-success-homemade-tomato-sauce-from-scratch-v14605567/cook-and-reduce-tomatoes-c3945348 2026-10-24T03:30:18.867Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QSi5JqwYYEI/hqdefault.jpg Cook and Reduce Tomatoes — SECRET INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS! Homemade Tomato Sauce from Scratch! Place the stockpots filled with chopped tomatoes on a stove burner set to medium to medium-low heat. The goal is to cook the tomatoes down and evaporate excess water, thickening the sauce. Do not cover the pots, as this traps steam and prevents evaporation. Stir the tomatoes frequently using a flat-bottom wooden spoon, ensuring the tomatoes don't stick to the bottom of the pot. Sugars in the tomatoes can burn easily if left unstirred, leading to a scorched taste. Continue cooking for several hours, or even overnight on very low heat, until the sauce has significantly reduced and thickened. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QSi5JqwYYEI 80 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secret-ingredients-for-success-homemade-tomato-sauce-from-scratch-v14605567/blend-and-adjust-consistency-c3945349 2026-10-24T03:30:18.867Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QSi5JqwYYEI/hqdefault.jpg Blend and Adjust Consistency — SECRET INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS! Homemade Tomato Sauce from Scratch! Once the tomatoes are sufficiently cooked down and have a thick consistency, consolidate them into a single large pot if you were using two. Carefully scoop the cooked tomatoes into a blender. Blend the mixture until it is completely smooth and free of any lumps. Return the blended sauce to the pot. If the sauce is still too watery for your preference, continue cooking it on low heat for a bit longer to achieve the desired thickness. The presenter mentions that if your sauce isn't thickening enough, especially if not using Roma tomatoes, you can add tomato paste as a 'cheat' to reach the desired consistency. One small can of tomato paste can make a significant difference. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QSi5JqwYYEI 123 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secret-ingredients-for-success-homemade-tomato-sauce-from-scratch-v14605567/prepare-jars-and-fill-with-sauce-c3945361 2026-10-24T03:30:18.867Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QSi5JqwYYEI/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Jars and Fill with Sauce — SECRET INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS! Homemade Tomato Sauce from Scratc While the sauce is reducing or after blending, prepare your canning jars. Wash the jars thoroughly and then sterilize them by placing them in an oven preheated to 300°F for approximately 35-45 minutes. Once sterilized, carefully remove the hot jars from the oven using appropriate oven mitts and place them on a clean, heat-resistant surface, like a baking sheet lined with a cooling rack. Add 1 teaspoon of pickling salt to each sterilized jar. It's crucial to use pickling salt, as it does not contain iodine, which can discolor or cloud your canned goods. For acidity, add 1 teaspoon of bottled lemon juice (e.g., Sicilia brand) per jar. Avoid using fresh lemon juice as its acidity level can vary. Using a canning funnel, ladle the hot tomato sauce into each jar, leaving a 1/2-inch headspace (the empty space between the top of the food and the rim of the jar). After filling, use a jar lifter to place the lid on top, followed by screwing on the metal ring, ensuring it is finger-tight. https://www.youtube.com/embed/QSi5JqwYYEI 90 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secret-ingredients-for-success-homemade-tomato-sauce-from-scratch-v14605567/pressure-can-the-sauce-c3945363 2026-10-24T03:30:18.867Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QSi5JqwYYEI/hqdefault.jpg Pressure Can the Sauce — SECRET INGREDIENTS FOR SUCCESS!

How to Plant, Grow, Harvest and Preserve Shiitake Once the shiitake mushrooms have matured on the logs, it's time to harvest them. There are two primary methods: using a knife or using snips (pruning shears). For both methods, aim to cut the mushroom stems as close to the log as possible without damaging the log or the mycelium, which will ensure future mushroom yields. The stems of shiitake mushrooms are very woody and are typically inedible, so they should be trimmed off.

MEGA Shop Construction RESUMES! Opi Begin by placing the larger corner stones at the base of the concrete pillars. With mortar applied to the back of the stone (including the air gap), firmly press each stone onto the pillar corner. The suction created by the air gap will help it stick. Gradually work your way up the pillar, carefully selecting stones that fit well together and ensuring a visually appealing pattern. Continue this process around all sides and corners of the pillar until the corners are established. After completing the corners, apply mortar to the back of the flat (field) stones and fit them into the remaining spaces on the pillar faces. The process involves selecting stones that fit tightly, applying mortar with the air gap technique, and pressing them firmly onto the concrete. If a stone doesn't fit perfectly, you can use a hammer and chisel to make minor adjustments to its shape. The goal is to fill all faces of the pillar with stones, leaving gaps for grouting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/RDx3aQ6_k_4 7 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farm-helper-showed-up-mega-shop-construction-resumes-opinions-wanted-v14605601/grout-the-stone-joints-c3944000 2026-10-24T03:28:36.763Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RDx3aQ6_k_4/hqdefault.jpg Grout the Stone Joints — Farm Helper Showed Up!

A second, lower line can also be added closer to the ground to effectively deter smaller animals such as rabbits or groundhogs, preventing them from crawling underneath. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ocJcthOszMg 23 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-keep-deer-away-easy-simple-and-stinky-v14605633/implement-3d-barrier-strategy-c3798511 2026-10-23T00:24:19.149Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ocJcthOszMg/hqdefault.jpg Implement 3D Barrier Strategy — How to KEEP DEER AWAY! Easy, Simple and STINKY! The strategic placement of two poly wire lines, even without being physically connected to form a solid barrier, creates a psychological 'three-dimensional barrier' in the mind of deer. Deer are browsers, not grazers, and typically prefer to jump over obstacles at an angle rather than straight over. This dual-line setup, especially when electrified, makes them perceive a complex and confusing obstacle, deterring them from attempting to jump and risking entanglement or a shock. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ocJcthOszMg 38 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-keep-deer-away-easy-simple-and-stinky-v14605633/electrify-and-maintain-the-fence-c3798512 2026-10-23T00:24:19.149Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ocJcthOszMg/hqdefault.jpg Electrify and Maintain the Fence — How to KEEP DEER AWAY!

This can be a solar-powered charger, which is convenient for remote garden areas, or a charger that plugs into a power outlet. Ensure the charger is properly grounded for safe and effective operation. Maintain the fence by regularly checking the lines for straightness and tautness, as a straighter fence enhances the psychological deterrent effect. Also, periodically inspect for any vegetation (like tall grass or weeds) touching the wires, which can ground the fence and reduce its electrical effectiveness, allowing deer to pass through without deterrence. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ocJcthOszMg 23 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/is-this-the-future-of-lawn-mowing-opinions-wanted-v14605634 2026-10-24T03:30:04.822Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7SPSYp_YudE/hqdefault.jpg Is This the Future of Lawn Mowing?

I wish I'd learned t After the cattle have moved, examine the grazed pasture. Look for 'manure pats' (referred to as 'dollar bills' for their fertilizing value) and observe the presence of seed heads on the grass. The farmer explains that allowing grass to go to seed (senescence or 'grandpa grass') reduces its vigorous growth cycle. Mowing after grazing stimulates the grass to redirect energy from seed production back into leaf growth, leading to quicker and denser recovery. This also helps in cutting down weeds before they go to seed, preventing their spread. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jNG_x0VA4s 98 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-mows-his-manure-i-wish-id-learned-this-years-ago-v14605637/final-herd-check-and-premowing-safety-c3944921 2026-10-24T03:29:43.353Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3jNG_x0VA4s/hqdefault.jpg Final Herd Check and Pre-Mowing Safety — Farmer Mows his MANURE? I wish I'd learned this YEARS AGO! Before bringing in heavy machinery, drive an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) through the freshly vacated paddock to ensure no calves were left behind. This is a crucial safety step. While checking, observe the cattle's natural grazing behavior – how they 'cherry-pick' the best forage and move in groups. Also, ensure adequate shade (shade trees are essential) and water (water trough) are available in all paddocks, especially in warmer weather, to minimize heat stress on the animals. Drive the ATV out of the paddock, opening and closing gates as needed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jNG_x0VA4s 171 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-mows-his-manure-i-wish-id-learned-this-years-ago-v14605637/tractor-and-mower-preparation-c3944922 2026-10-24T03:29:43.353Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3jNG_x0VA4s/hqdefault.jpg Tractor and Mower Preparation — Farmer Mows his MANURE?

The farmer demonstrates mowing at different heights (3-inch, 5-inch, and 8-inch cuts) from previous trials and visually explains the impact on grass recovery. Areas mowed shorter show slower and less dense regrowth, appearing less green. Conversely, sections mowed higher (around 8 inches) exhibit much faster and lusher recovery. This illustrates the 'solar panel' effect, where more leaf material allows for greater photosynthesis and quicker regrowth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jNG_x0VA4s 314 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-mows-his-manure-i-wish-id-learned-this-years-ago-v14605637/understanding-senescence-and-optimizing-growth-c3944924 2026-10-24T03:29:43.353Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3jNG_x0VA4s/hqdefault.jpg Understanding Senescence and Optimizing Growth — Farmer Mows his MANURE? I wish I'd learned this YE The farmer further explains the concept of 'senescence,' where grass allowed to go to seed dedicates energy to reproduction rather than leaf growth. This results in less palatable and nutritious forage for cattle. The goal is to keep the grass in a vigorous growth cycle by mowing, which forces the plant to focus on producing more leafy material. This approach applies even to home lawns: mowing higher promotes healthier grass and reduces weeds. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3jNG_x0VA4s 107 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-mows-his-manure-i-wish-id-learned-this-years-ago-v14605637/final-mowing-pass-and-future-soil-health-c3944925 2026-10-24T03:29:43.353Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3jNG_x0VA4s/hqdefault.jpg Final Mowing Pass and Future Soil Health — Farmer Mows his MANURE?

The creator also reveals evidence of prior modifications, such as screw holes on the front rack and electrical tape on wiring near the handlebars, indicating something had been mounted or tampered with. The service department confirmed the engine had been opened before. The major revelation was that the ATV likely had a 'snorkel' installed, meaning it was used to go underwater. This led to dirt and water entering the engine through the differential breathers, causing bent valves due to low oil, and completely worn-out clutches.

He highlights the goal of his grazing strategy: cows eat one-third of the forage, trample one-third, and leave one-third, which enriches the soil. He points out black locust trees, known for producing delicious honey, and mentions wild cherry trees, which are poisonous to livestock if their leaves are broken or dead. He also discusses the practice of natural deworming through diverse forage and charcoal consumption. https://www.youtube.com/embed/P7KrSAHhLRQ 263 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/mystery-creature-on-the-farm-youll-get-a-laugh-out-of-this-one-v14605645/calf-recovery-bloat-preparedness-c3951814 2026-10-24T04:48:35.609Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/P7KrSAHhLRQ/hqdefault.jpg Calf Recovery & Bloat Preparedness — Mystery Creature on the Farm!

He illustrates this point by sharing his personal journey: how he successfully paid off his 150-acre farm, all buildings on it, and his vehicles, and eliminated all credit card debt over approximately 10 years. He uses his own life as an example to show that this level of financial freedom is attainable for anyone willing to make the necessary changes. He highlights the common pitfall of continuously purchasing new and unnecessary items on credit, referring to money spent on interest as 'money set on fire'. This step sets the philosophical foundation for the entire project. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8_3ejBDqLHg 211 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmers-shocking-method-to-eliminate-all-debt-a-life-changing-v14605648/acquire-marketable-skills-c3946169 2026-10-24T03:31:57.315Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8_3ejBDqLHg/hqdefault.jpg Acquire Marketable Skills — Farmer's Shocking Method to Eliminate All Debt!

He suggests pursuing vocational training through a trade school, developing a unique skill set that few others possess, or honing an artistic talent. He shares his own journey, noting that he joined the Air Force at 18 and later became a registered nurse. He clarifies that a traditional college degree isn't always a prerequisite for success in this path, but rather a 'marketable skill' that can provide a stable income. This foundational income is essential to support the dream of owning a farm before it begins to generate a profit. He encourages continuous personal growth, both financially and intellectually. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8_3ejBDqLHg 120 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmers-shocking-method-to-eliminate-all-debt-a-life-changing-v14605648/implement-strict-budgeting-debt-reduction-c3946173 2026-10-24T03:31:57.315Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8_3ejBDqLHg/hqdefault.jpg Implement Strict Budgeting & Debt Reduction — Farmer's Shocking Method to Eliminate All Debt! A Life This step focuses on implementing strict financial discipline by actively saving money, reducing unnecessary expenses, and avoiding purchases driven by wants rather than needs. The speaker suggests eating at home more frequently, providing an example of cooking on a 'Gather Grill' with ingredients like butter, seasoning (McCormick), diced potatoes, ground beef, and cheese crumbles. He emphasizes cutting out non-essential spending, such as excessive driving (reducing gas consumption) or frequent trips to places like ice cream parlors, and instead making these treats at home. He urges viewers to sell expensive, unnecessary assets like a $110,000 pickup truck if it's not essential for business and replace it with a more reasonable, used vehicle like a John Deere skid steer loader or an older Massey Ferguson 240 tractor, which are more practical for farm work. The core message is to live within or below one's means to aggressively pay off debt and build savings. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8_3ejBDqLHg 409 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmers-shocking-method-to-eliminate-all-debt-a-life-changing-v14605648/pursue-strategic-land-acquisition-c3946175 2026-10-24T03:31:57.315Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8_3ejBDqLHg/hqdefault.jpg Pursue Strategic Land Acquisition — Farmer's Shocking Method to Eliminate All Debt! A Life Changing For those aiming to acquire land for farming, the speaker advises against solely relying on popular real estate websites like Zillow or Realtor.com. Instead, he advocates for extensive 'legwork': actively seeking out opportunities directly. This includes visiting local USDA offices, agricultural extension offices, and tax offices to inquire about foreclosed farms or properties. He shares his experience of acquiring his own farm for a significantly low price per acre because others overlooked its potential, seeing only an 'overgrown briar patch.' The key is to identify hidden potential in properties that might seem undesirable to others, focusing on land that can be reclaimed for productive agriculture, such as growing grass for animals or food for the family. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8_3ejBDqLHg 362 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmers-shocking-method-to-eliminate-all-debt-a-life-changing-v14605648/begin-with-smallscale-farming-c3946181 2026-10-24T03:31:57.315Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8_3ejBDqLHg/hqdefault.jpg Begin with Small-Scale Farming — Farmer's Shocking Method to Eliminate All Debt! A Life Changing Exp The speaker encourages individuals to start their farming journey on a small scale, regardless of their current living situation. If living in an apartment, he suggests starting a 'bucket garden.' For those in a house, he recommends beginning with a small raised-bed garden. He also advises exploring small-scale livestock, such as honeybees or chickens, after checking local ordinances. He shares his personal experience of starting with an 'urban farm' on a 1/3-acre plot, where he grew vegetables, sold them at a stand in his front yard, and managed 13 beehives. This approach allows for learning and gaining experience without the significant financial risk associated with large-scale investment, preventing burnout and ensuring sustainable growth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8_3ejBDqLHg 99 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmers-shocking-method-to-eliminate-all-debt-a-life-changing-v14605648/develop-a-longterm-financial-strategy-c3946182 2026-10-24T03:31:57.315Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8_3ejBDqLHg/hqdefault.jpg Develop a Long-Term Financial Strategy — Farmer's Shocking Method to Eliminate All Debt!

He suggests utilizing an online amortization schedule to calculate payments and aiming to pay off the land within 5 to 10 years, rather than extending loans for longer periods. This approach is contrasted with buying unnecessary items like expensive pickup trucks, emphasizing that financial resources should be directed towards assets that genuinely support the farming dream. He advocates for buying reliable, used equipment that is well-maintained, such as a sturdy older tractor or other implements, to minimize initial costs and avoid constant breakdowns.

He explicitly states that his own farm would not be where it is today without his social media business, which includes platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. He encourages viewers to document their journey, share their experiences (both successes and failures), and teach others through these platforms. This approach allows for building a community and potentially generating revenue, which can directly support the dream of owning and operating a farm.

The presenter mentions his tractor (3 years old) is already on its third 12-volt battery. Another critical issue is the screen, which sometimes pixelates and is crucial for displaying battery life and speed. Furthermore, the PTO system (Power Take-Off) requires the tractor to be moving to engage attachments like a mower deck. This 'live PTO' design limits its functionality for tasks requiring stationary power and significantly drains the main battery if used for heavy work at low speeds (e.g., mowing tall grass at 2 mph drains the battery in about 2 hours). https://www.youtube.com/embed/Q9CYpW2ifjw 139 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/americas-first-electric-tractor-company-bankruptwhy-v14605651/overall-assessment-and-future-of-electric-tractors-c3944345 2026-10-24T03:29:03.439Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Q9CYpW2ifjw/hqdefault.jpg Overall Assessment and Future of Electric Tractors — Americas First Electric Tractor Company BANKRUP Despite its flaws, the presenter praises the Solectrac for its strength, weight (which aids stability), and the benefit of no fuel costs when solar-charged. However, he reiterates that the high price, the auxiliary battery's unreliability, the screen issues, and the antiquated PTO system ultimately hindered its success. He believes that while electric tractor technology has potential, it needs to be more advanced, reliable, and significantly more affordable (suggesting price points around $18,000-$25,000 with strong warranties) to be widely adopted by the 'common man' for small homesteads or farms. He ends by inviting viewer comments on their thoughts about electric tractors and their excitement for more advanced, affordable models. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Q9CYpW2ifjw 243 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youve-never-seen-a-pastured-poultry-setup-like-this-innovative-and-v14605652 2026-10-24T03:31:28.408Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/woe52Z67Ugs/hqdefault.jpg You've never seen a pastured poultry setup like this!

Opinion Before starting the dragging process, the host visually inspects various areas of his pasture. He shows several cow manure pats, noting their dry, crusted appearance and lack of earthworm activity, which he attributes to poor soil health and slow decomposition. He contrasts this with embedded footage from another regenerative farmer (Greg Judy), demonstrating active earthworm breakdown in healthier soil. He also points out sections of the pasture where dense, dry residual hay (thatch) is matted on the ground, preventing new grass from growing through. This visual assessment highlights the issues dragging aims to address: poor nutrient distribution and inhibited grass regeneration. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W05-9jK23a8 157 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/mocked-and-called-an-idiot-for-farming-like-this-opinions-wanted-v14605657/preparing-the-tractor-and-hydraulic-drag-harrow-c3945621 2026-10-24T03:30:56.702Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W05-9jK23a8/hqdefault.jpg Preparing the Tractor and Hydraulic Drag Harrow — Mocked and Called an IDIOT For Farming Like this? The host prepares the equipment for pasture dragging. He showcases his red TYM T1104 tractor, a 110-horsepower machine, and a Wingfield American Harrow, specifically a 25-foot batwing version. He explains that the harrow can be used in two directions: an aggressive direction (tines pointing forward) or a non-aggressive direction (tines angled backward), which is achieved by simply turning the harrow around. The harrow is hydraulically controlled to fold out to its full working width for operation and then fold back for transport. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W05-9jK23a8 61 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/mocked-and-called-an-idiot-for-farming-like-this-opinions-wanted-v14605657/executing-pasture-dragging-and-addressing-compaction-concerns-c3945622 2026-10-24T03:30:56.702Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W05-9jK23a8/hqdefault.jpg Executing Pasture Dragging and Addressing Compaction Concerns — Mocked and Called an IDIOT For Farmi The host gets into the tractor and begins dragging the pasture, covering the field in a pattern. He explains that the pattern does not need to be precise, and crossing over the same areas or driving in various directions helps disperse the material effectively. He highlights his goal of spreading out the manure pats, which he sees as "dollar bills" of fertilizer, to ensure broad nutrient distribution rather than concentrated clumps that cows often avoid. He briefly re-emphasizes the compaction argument, using simple math calculations on his smartphone to compare the ground pressure exerted by the tractor's tires (125 PSI) versus a 1,200-pound cow's hooves (potentially 300+ PSI), asserting that the tractor causes less compaction.

Opinions After completing the pasture dragging, the host examines the field to show the immediate results. He demonstrates how the dry, matted thatch and cow manure pats have been effectively broken up and spread across the pasture. He emphasizes that this process allows air and oxygen to penetrate the soil, transforming it from an anaerobic (oxygen-deprived) to an aerobic (oxygen-rich) environment, which is crucial for fostering beneficial microbial activity and earthworm populations. He reinforces his belief that evenly distributing these organic nutrients (which he calls "dollar bills") across the entire pasture, rather than leaving them in isolated clumps, promotes healthier grass growth and increased grazability. He concludes by stating that this technique, especially when combined with other regenerative practices like rotational grazing, effectively rebuilds the soil over time. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W05-9jK23a8 245 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/regenerative-ranching-on-a-small-scale-v14605658 2026-10-24T03:30:18.878Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7VJlhQk7eiE/hqdefault.jpg Regenerative Ranching on a Small Scale This project guides you through setting up and managing temporary electric fences for a rotational grazing system, also known as mob grazing.

He threads the polywire through a small loop he ties in the wire and hooks it onto a step-in post, explaining this is the 'pull point' for the line. He then drives the ATV across the paddock, unwinding the polywire from the reel, and manually inserts several additional step-in posts at regular intervals to support the polywire and maintain its tension. At the end of the line, he ties off the polywire to another step-in post using a simple granny knot, avoiding the need for crimping tools. https://www.youtube.com/embed/7VJlhQk7eiE 87 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/regenerative-ranching-on-a-small-scale-v14605658/moving-the-cattle-to-the-new-paddock-c3945323 2026-10-24T03:30:18.878Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7VJlhQk7eiE/hqdefault.jpg Moving the Cattle to the New Paddock — Regenerative Ranching on a Small Scale Once the temporary fence line is established and energized, the cattle are ready to be moved.

He explains that the trailer features a fully engineered frame and gooseneck, utilizing 100 KSI steel for the top and bottom flanges and 80 KSI steel for the web, significantly stronger than typical 36-50 KSI mild steel. The gooseneck incorporates a unique enclosed storage compartment with a roll-up door, similar to a fire truck, designed to store tools, chains, and binders securely. This compartment also houses the hydraulic pumps, air compressors, and batteries. The trailer is equipped with air-return hydraulic jacks, allowing for easy lifting and lowering without hydraulic pressure for retraction. The frame itself has a camber (arch) to prevent sagging even when fully loaded. Other features include a retractable side step, a lockable storage box above the gooseneck, a directional LED light bar for nighttime operations, and built-in sliding winch tracks along the length of the trailer. The ramps are full-width, lightweight, made of 80 KSI steel, and spring-assisted for easy deployment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/WMmik1Um_Us 365 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-dump-trailers-are-made-inside-look-in-an-amish-trailer-factory-v14605659/dump-trailer-showcase-c3946664 2026-10-24T03:32:35.511Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WMmik1Um_Us/hqdefault.jpg Dump Trailer Showcase — How Dump Trailers are Made | Inside Look in an Amish Trailer Factory Jonathan introduces the DLX series dump trailer, noting its unique unibody design with fewer cross-members and thinner gauge walls and floors.

He explains their lean manufacturing process, which optimizes efficiency. The process starts at the 'saw line' or 'cut line' where structural steel is pre-cut according to specific trailer model production sheets. These pre-cut parts are then loaded onto carts and moved to specific fabrication lines. Each line utilizes fixture tables (jigs) to ensure repeatability, consistency, and efficiency in welding sub-frames. The video shows the beam welder, which fabricates engineered beams up to 44 feet long by welding top/bottom plates and webs from specialized steel. He points out the pierced frame design, where I-beams for cross-members are welded *through* the main frame, not just butted against it, increasing stability and rigidity. The tour then moves to the Dexter axle assembly area, where 12,000lb axles are prepared. After fabrication, all steel trailers undergo a phosphoric acid wash in a dedicated wash bay to prepare the surface for painting. Smaller parts go through a separate conveyorized wash and paint system. Before painting, all seams are meticulously sealed to prevent water ingress and rust.

It highlights the corrosiveness of methanol to tractor wheels and its harmful effects on soil and grass if leaked. The RimGuard product is introduced as a heavier, non-corrosive, and environmentally friendly alternative made from beet juice byproduct, which also offers better traction and tire longevity. The importance of using proper, non-corrosive ballast is emphasized for both tractor performance and environmental protection. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DiHBoBCu5EY 89 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-simple-tractor-upgrade-changes-everything-v14605661/check-existing-tire-ballast-c3945877 2026-10-24T03:31:29.357Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DiHBoBCu5EY/hqdefault.jpg Check Existing Tire Ballast — This Simple Tractor Upgrade Changes Everything To determine if your tractor tires are already loaded with liquid ballast and what type, perform a hammer test and a valve stem check. For the hammer test, tap the tire with a hammer. A hollow sound indicates an air pocket, while a deep thud suggests liquid. For the valve stem check, depress the valve core. If liquid (often rust-colored, indicating corrosion) comes out, the tire is loaded. If only air comes out, the tire is likely only air-filled or contains only a small amount of liquid. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DiHBoBCu5EY 104 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-simple-tractor-upgrade-changes-everything-v14605661/evacuate-old-methanol-ballast-c3945898 2026-10-24T03:31:29.357Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DiHBoBCu5EY/hqdefault.jpg Evacuate Old Methanol Ballast — This Simple Tractor Upgrade Changes Everything Begin by removing the valve core from the existing tractor tire's air-water valve. Attach the three-piece 'installer' tool to the valve stem. This tool screws into the valve and features a long rod that engages and pulls back the valve core, allowing the liquid ballast to be pumped out. Connect a hose from the installer tool to a fluid transfer pump, and another hose from the pump to a large collection tote for the old fluid. Ensure the collection tote is large enough for the full volume of liquid, and has graduations to monitor the amount removed. Set the pump's selector lever to 'pull' to begin evacuating the old methanol-based fluid from the tire. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DiHBoBCu5EY 199 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-simple-tractor-upgrade-changes-everything-v14605661/install-rimguard-and-finalize-c3945906 2026-10-24T03:31:29.357Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DiHBoBCu5EY/hqdefault.jpg Install RimGuard and Finalize — This Simple Tractor Upgrade Changes Everything After evacuating the old fluid and ensuring the tire has approximately 5 PSI of air pressure, switch the pump's selector lever to 'pump' to begin installing the new RimGuard ballast. Visually monitor the amount of fluid being pumped from the graduated tote. Continue pumping until the tire is filled to 75% capacity, leaving a 25% air pocket at the top. This air pocket is essential to prevent sloshing during operation. Once filled, remove the installer tool, reinsert the valve core, and use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts to the manufacturer's specifications (e.g., 100-110 foot-pounds) for safety. Apply a RimGuard sticker near the valve stem as a reminder to always check air pressure with the valve stem at the 12 o'clock position to avoid fluid loss. If the tire was overfilled and RimGuard comes out when adding air, it means the tire was overfilled and the customer is likely to lose ballast and money. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DiHBoBCu5EY 739 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-simple-tractor-upgrade-changes-everything-v14605661/demonstrate-benefits-of-rimguard-ballast-c3945912 2026-10-24T03:31:29.357Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DiHBoBCu5EY/hqdefault.jpg Demonstrate Benefits of RimGuard Ballast — This Simple Tractor Upgrade Changes Everything To showcase the benefits of RimGuard, a demonstration is performed. First, the tractor with *unloaded* tires (only air) picks up a large hay bale. This causes the front of the tractor to lift significantly off the ground, reducing stability and traction. Next, the same tractor, now with *RimGuard-loaded* tires, picks up the hay bale. The front of the tractor remains firmly planted on the ground, demonstrating a dramatic increase in stability and traction due to the added weight and lower center of gravity. A split-screen comparison clearly illustrates the difference in tire bulge (contact patch) and front-end lift between unloaded and loaded tires, proving the effectiveness of RimGuard for safer and more efficient heavy lifting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/DiHBoBCu5EY 270 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/lets-build-something-today-see-if-you-can-catch-my-mistake-v14605662 2026-10-24T03:32:17.934Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5u75tZjrXrs/hqdefault.jpg Let's Build Something Today!

The video demonstrates a four-post water system setup with posts approximately 16-18 feet from the water tank and from each other. Ensure cattle have easy access to water but aren't encouraged to lounge or gather excessively around the tank. A key guideline is to ensure the water source is no more than 450 feet from your cattle at any given time, otherwise, they will 'mob drink' and deplete the water quickly. Utilize frost-free water tanks (like Mirafount 3390) that use a heat sink to prevent freezing, suitable for colder climates. https://www.youtube.com/embed/-4QlUtDdrds 147 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-set-up-mob-grazing-paddocks-for-the-first-time-on-your-farm-or-v14605667/finalize-connections-and-tighten-fence-c3944587 2026-10-24T03:29:18.819Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-4QlUtDdrds/hqdefault.jpg Finalize Connections and Tighten Fence — How to Set Up Mob Grazing Paddocks for the First time on yo Connect the end of your new polybraid line to an appropriate gate handle.

This encourages them to consume only the sweet, nutritious tops of the grass, similar to 'candy'. Over successive grazing cycles, they will gradually consume the less desirable undergrowth. This strategy allows for a 45-day recovery period for the grass, promoting soil health and reducing parasite load. It's about 'grass recovery' and leaving enough 'solar panel' (foliage) on the plants to facilitate quick regrowth. The size of the paddocks should be adjusted based on the density of the grass; sparser areas may require slightly larger paddocks to provide enough feed for the grazing period. https://www.youtube.com/embed/-4QlUtDdrds 194 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-hatch-eggs-with-an-incubator-everything-you-need-to-know-for-v14605668 2026-10-24T03:28:41.897Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/TM_Y0U4FtU0/hqdefault.jpg How to Hatch Eggs with an Incubator | Everything you need to know for success!

Foxes keep Killing my Chickens! Connect the electric netting to an existing structure like a chicken coop by tying off the non-electrified ropes at the end of the netting to the structure. Ensure that no electrified strands (the ones with metal filaments) are touching the coop or any other grounded objects. If there's a gap between the ground and the lowest live wire, a predator might try to crawl under. Use the provided fence tester to check the voltage on the live wires. The tester will flash, indicating a successful connection and sufficient voltage. If grass grows too high and touches the electrified wires, it can cause the fence to 'pop' or lose charge. Trim the grass as needed, or adjust the fence height to prevent grounding out. https://www.youtube.com/embed/JkVpn_v2k7k 24 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/this-should-work-foxes-keep-killing-my-chickens-v14605677/access-maintenance-and-troubleshooting-c3946572 2026-10-24T03:32:25.454Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JkVpn_v2k7k/hqdefault.jpg Access, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting — This Should Work!

Before operating, understand how the RSE RP70 rock picker functions. The attachment features a series of robust metal tines at the bottom, forming a grate. These tines are spaced to allow smaller soil particles, dirt, and fine debris to fall through, effectively screening out unwanted material. Above these fixed tines, a hydraulically-powered rotating comb is situated. When activated, this comb spins, agitating the collected material and pushing larger rocks towards the back of the bucket while simultaneously shaking off any remaining soil. This design ensures that primarily rocks are retained, minimizing the amount of dirt being transported. https://www.youtube.com/embed/BnlR4VVFIe0 57 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farming-just-got-dangerous-v14605682/operate-the-rock-picker-to-clear-the-field-c3945881 2026-10-24T03:31:34.632Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BnlR4VVFIe0/hqdefault.jpg Operate the Rock Picker to Clear the Field — Farming Just got DANGEROUS! With the rock picker attached, begin the rock clearing operation in the field. Drive the Gehl RT210 skid steer slowly across the terrain. Lower the rock picker to skim the surface of the soil, scooping up rocks, branches, and other debris. As you move, activate the hydraulic rotating comb to agitate the collected material. This action causes loose soil, dirt clods, and smaller fragments to fall through the tines, while larger rocks are secured within the picker's bucket. For very large rocks, use the clam shell function to fully grasp and lift them. The host demonstrates picking up a rock he estimates to weigh about 1800 pounds, highlighting the power of the machinery. Repeat this process across the entire field, making multiple passes as needed, focusing on collecting as many rocks as possible to prepare the ground for future planting or grazing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/BnlR4VVFIe0 992 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farming-just-got-dangerous-v14605682/offload-rocks-and-future-outlook-c3945882 2026-10-24T03:31:34.632Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BnlR4VVFIe0/hqdefault.jpg Offload Rocks and Future Outlook — Farming Just got DANGEROUS!

Remove the netting from the hay bale before unrolling. Drive the ATV slowly across the forest floor, allowing the bale unroller to distribute the hay in a continuous line. This process serves multiple purposes: it feeds the cattle, spreads grass seeds (which are present in the hay, including fescue, orchard grass, and timothy), and the weight and hooves of the cattle as they eat disturb the soil, stimulating the latent seed bed and promoting new growth. This low-pressure disturbance is critical for building topsoil and sequestering carbon. The cattle are then released into the area to feed on the distributed hay. https://www.youtube.com/embed/76y7UO4--nc no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-buy-land-without-being-rich-real-farmers-simple-advice-that-v14605684 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wl4KMNx91oc/hqdefault.jpg How to BUY LAND without being RICH | Real Farmer's Simple Advice that Worked!

The operator notes that the saw blade has some rust but explains that it will wear off during operation, and the blade is designed for softer woods like pine. He then demonstrates the blade lubrication system, which sprays a liquid soap mixture onto the blade from a small tank to prevent sap buildup and improve cutting performance. After these checks, the sawmill is run for a short period to allow the engine to warm up properly. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SaN-BmZbqXg 132 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youll-never-guess-what-happened-engine-blew-up-did-i-do-something-v14605722/diagnosing-gasoline-contamination-in-sawmill-engine-oil-c3945027 2026-10-24T03:29:49.243Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SaN-BmZbqXg/hqdefault.jpg Diagnosing Gasoline Contamination in Sawmill Engine Oil — You'll never guess what happened! ENGINE B Upon restarting the sawmill, the engine immediately begins emitting dense white smoke again, indicating a severe issue. The operator checks the engine's oil dipstick and notices the oil level is excessively high, well above the 'full' mark. He also smells gasoline on the dipstick. This suggests that fuel is mixing with the engine oil, potentially due to a faulty fuel injector or a stuck float in a carbureted system (though this engine is fuel-injected). Recognizing the potential for severe engine damage, the operator decides to immediately drain the contaminated oil and replace it. He uses a 19mm wrench to open the drain plug, allowing the oil-gasoline mixture to flow into a gallon jug. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SaN-BmZbqXg 225 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youll-never-guess-what-happened-engine-blew-up-did-i-do-something-v14605722/truck-engine-inspection-c3945034 2026-10-24T03:29:49.243Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SaN-BmZbqXg/hqdefault.jpg Truck Engine Inspection — You'll never guess what happened!

Blue smoke typically indicates burning oil, which could be a result of residual gasoline in the combustion chambers or seals, or more serious engine damage from the previous contamination. The operator notes that the engine sounds much better than before but is still concerned about the blue smoke. He confirms that the engine's oil level is correct after the refill. He shuts off the fuel supply to the engine, allowing it to run until it starves of fuel, which is a common method to clear residual fuel from the system or to stop an engine in an emergency. The engine eventually shuts down, but the severity of the blue smoke persists. The operator speculates that the engine might be ruined due to the gasoline contamination. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SaN-BmZbqXg 276 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/youll-never-guess-what-happened-engine-blew-up-did-i-do-something-v14605722/conclusion-sawmill-engine-likely-damaged-c3945043 2026-10-24T03:29:49.243Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SaN-BmZbqXg/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion: Sawmill Engine Likely Damaged — You'll never guess what happened! ENGINE BLEW UP! Did I After observing persistent blue smoke, the operator concludes that the sawmill engine is likely severely damaged from the gasoline contamination. He notes the engine only has 70 hours on it and was expecting a much longer lifespan from the Kohler EFI engine, which typically comes with a five-year warranty. The decision is made to contact Wood-Mizer for further assistance and warranty claims, as continued operation without professional diagnosis risks further irreversible damage.

The flywheel, being a key part of the ignition system, must be removed to gain full access to the cylinder and piston. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XJxCMccIA4g 139 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dumbest-mistake-anyone-could-make-with-a-2000-chainsaw-ruined-in-an-v14605736/detailed-piston-and-cylinder-inspection-c3945437 2026-10-24T03:30:25.618Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XJxCMccIA4g/hqdefault.jpg Detailed Piston and Cylinder Inspection — Dumbest Mistake Anyone Could Make With a $2000 Chainsaw! R With the flywheel removed, Cliff now has direct access to the cylinder and piston. He uses a small hammer and a punch to gently tap out the wrist pin, which links the piston to the connecting rod. The pin is quite difficult to remove, indicating it is likely seized due to the engine overheating. Once the wrist pin is finally dislodged, the piston can be completely separated from the cylinder. Upon close inspection, the piston reveals heavy scoring and visible damage on its sides. The cylinder wall also shows matching scoring marks. Cliff explains that this damage is a direct result of using regular gasoline in a 2-stroke engine. He clarifies that 2-stroke engines rely on the oil mixed in the fuel for lubrication, unlike 4-stroke engines which have a separate oil reservoir. The absence of this lubricating oil causes severe friction, leading to rapid overheating and the piston seizing against the cylinder wall. He suggests that a proper repair would require replacing the piston, cylinder, and associated gaskets. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XJxCMccIA4g 255 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dumbest-mistake-anyone-could-make-with-a-2000-chainsaw-ruined-in-an-v14605736/engine-type-discussion-and-repair-economics-c3945439 2026-10-24T03:30:25.618Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XJxCMccIA4g/hqdefault.jpg Engine Type Discussion and Repair Economics — Dumbest Mistake Anyone Could Make With a $2000 Chainsa Cliff elaborates on the differences between 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines, focusing on their lubrication methods. He explains that 2-stroke engines rely on oil mixed with fuel for lubrication, while 4-stroke engines have a separate oil sump. Using incorrect fuel (like pure gasoline) in a 2-stroke leads to a lack of lubrication, causing severe friction, overheating, and seizing. He also briefly touches on Stihl's '4-mix' engines, which combine 2-stroke fuel mix with valves for improved fuel economy and power. He concludes that the extensive damage to the chainsaw is a clear case of operator error, which means it will not be covered under the manufacturer's warranty. He offers advice on repair versus replacement: if the cost of repairing the chainsaw exceeds 50% of the price of a new unit, replacement is generally the more economical choice. https://www.youtube.com/embed/XJxCMccIA4g 108 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dumbest-mistake-anyone-could-make-with-a-2000-chainsaw-ruined-in-an-v14605736/new-chainsaw-features-and-selection-advice-c3945444 2026-10-24T03:30:25.618Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XJxCMccIA4g/hqdefault.jpg New Chainsaw Features and Selection Advice — Dumbest Mistake Anyone Could Make With a $2000 Chainsaw Josh thanks Cliff for the educational session.

Cheap Winter Past The video introduces the concept of listening to the weeds on your farm as indicators of soil health, comparing bare, open land to an open wound susceptible to 'infection' (weed growth). The core philosophy is to fix the soil to eliminate weed problems, rather than applying herbicides. The presenter highlights the Stony Ridge Farm's approach to regenerative farming, emphasizing building soil health without costly chemical fertilizers (NPK). He discusses the past condition of the farm, which was previously a stand of poor timber (pine trees that were clear-cut eight years prior) and old tobacco land, leading to significantly depleted and acidic soil in the Piedmont and Foothills regions of North Carolina. The ultimate goal is to move away from making land dependent on chemical fertilizers and instead build soil organically. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W_m7-qeUaQk 354 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stop-paying-the-fertilizer-man-cheap-winter-pasture-management-v14605744/implement-rotational-grazing-with-livestock-c3946558 2026-10-24T03:32:25.494Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W_m7-qeUaQk/hqdefault.jpg Implement Rotational Grazing with Livestock — Stop Paying The Fertilizer Man! Cheap Winter Pasture M The foundation of this regenerative approach involves utilizing livestock, specifically cattle, to mimic the historical grazing patterns of large herds like bison. This includes practices like rotational grazing, where cattle are moved frequently between small paddocks. The presenter moves a herd of black cattle through electric fencing and demonstrates the optimal grazing height, ensuring the grass is not grazed shorter than approximately 5 inches. This allows for quicker recovery of the grass. The goal is to move cattle twice a day during the summer to fresh grass. This intensive, short-duration grazing encourages even manure distribution and prevents overgrazing in any single area. This method also ensures the root systems of the grass continue to work and build soil structure even in winter. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W_m7-qeUaQk 173 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stop-paying-the-fertilizer-man-cheap-winter-pasture-management-v14605744/winter-hay-distribution-manure-spreading-c3946559 2026-10-24T03:32:25.494Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W_m7-qeUaQk/hqdefault.jpg Winter Hay Distribution & Manure Spreading — Stop Paying The Fertilizer Man! Cheap Winter Pasture Ma To further enhance soil health during the winter months when grass growth is limited, hay bales are unrolled directly onto the pastures. This technique, called 'winter hay feeding,' involves spreading hay across the land, especially over bare spots. This practice provides a 'mat' to cover the soil, which is crucial as bare soil can be damaged by direct sunlight and lacks microbial life. The hay is allowed to rot over the winter, and its decomposition builds humus, which in turn creates healthy, living soil. To aid in the even distribution and breakdown of manure from the cattle, a tractor pulling a drag harrow is used to spread out manure pats across the pasture. This strategy replaces the need for purchased chemical fertilizers and also acts as a seed bank, as hay bales often contain grass seeds that can germinate and improve future pasture quality. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W_m7-qeUaQk 374 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/stop-paying-the-fertilizer-man-cheap-winter-pasture-management-v14605744/embrace-holistic-microbial-soil-management-c3946560 2026-10-24T03:32:25.494Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/W_m7-qeUaQk/hqdefault.jpg Embrace Holistic & Microbial Soil Management — Stop Paying The Fertilizer Man! Cheap Winter Pasture The video emphasizes moving away from conventional farming practices that rely heavily on chemical fertilizers and over-medicating livestock. Instead, the focus is on a holistic, microbial approach to land management. This involves reducing soil compaction by using lightweight machinery (ATVs, UTVs) instead of heavy tractors, especially on soft ground. The goal is to build a 'microbial sponge' in the soil that can naturally pull nitrogen from the air and retain water, mimicking natural ecosystems. By adopting these regenerative practices, the farm aims to break dependency on external chemical inputs, improve animal health without dewormers, and ultimately achieve profitability from sustainable farming. https://www.youtube.com/embed/W_m7-qeUaQk 113 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sinkholes-are-developing-on-the-farm-because-of-my-ignorance-v14605745 2026-10-24T03:28:46.388Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zzKLKH0rPBo/hqdefault.jpg Sinkholes are developing on the farm because of my Ignorance!

The tractor had recent work done, including a new injection pump (as shown in a previous video), but it's still exhibiting symptoms of a fuel delivery issue, such as sputtering and eventually dying. This suggests a problem in the fuel system upstream of the injection pump. https://www.youtube.com/embed/OljGFX0eg9U 141 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/old-tractor-problems-was-this-my-fault-new-farm-hand-today-v14605755/diagnose-fuel-restriction-by-bleeding-line-c3944657 2026-10-24T03:29:24.589Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OljGFX0eg9U/hqdefault.jpg Diagnose Fuel Restriction by Bleeding Line — Old Tractor Problems! Was this my Fault? New Farm Hand To diagnose the fuel delivery problem further, the owner demonstrates bleeding the fuel line at the injection pump. When the bleeder screw is loosened, instead of fuel being pushed out (indicating a healthy fuel supply), air is noticeably sucked in, creating a vacuum. This observation strongly suggests a blockage in the fuel line leading from the tank to the pump. Based on this, the decision is made to remove and inspect the fuel shut-off valve at the bottom of the fuel tank, as it's a common point for debris accumulation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/OljGFX0eg9U 49 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/old-tractor-problems-was-this-my-fault-new-farm-hand-today-v14605755/drain-fuel-from-tank-c3944658 2026-10-24T03:29:24.589Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OljGFX0eg9U/hqdefault.jpg Drain Fuel from Tank — Old Tractor Problems! Was this my Fault? New Farm Hand Today? To safely access and remove the fuel shut-off valve, the fuel needs to be drained from the tank. The owner uses a 'Perfect Siphon' (a clear hose with a built-in check valve) to extract diesel fuel from the tractor's tank. By shaking the siphon vigorously, the check valve activates, initiating the flow of fuel into a yellow fuel jug. Approximately 3 gallons of fuel are drained to prevent spills when the valve is later removed. A bucket is also placed underneath the fuel line connection to catch any drips. https://www.youtube.com/embed/OljGFX0eg9U 132 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/old-tractor-problems-was-this-my-fault-new-farm-hand-today-v14605755/remove-and-inspect-fuel-shutoff-valve-c3944659 2026-10-24T03:29:24.589Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OljGFX0eg9U/hqdefault.jpg Remove and Inspect Fuel Shut-off Valve — Old Tractor Problems!

He explains that the bale should be unrolled in the opposite direction it was baled, which allows for a thinner and more even distribution of hay. This method minimizes waste, as cattle are less likely to trample heavily concentrated hay. He points out sections of 'bad hay' at the bottom of the bale, explaining that this will rot down and enrich the soil, acting as natural fertilizer. He confirms that the cattle are happily feeding on the freshly unrolled hay, directly benefiting the land by depositing manure and urine as they eat. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1yD2z6M0aBc 186 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/small-farmer-struggles-it-cant-keep-going-this-way-v14605756/concluding-remarks-on-farming-weather-c3944621 2026-10-24T03:29:18.897Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/1yD2z6M0aBc/hqdefault.jpg Concluding Remarks on Farming & Weather — Small Farmer Struggles | It Can't Keep Going This Way Observing his cattle contentedly eating the unrolled hay, the farmer concludes by emphasizing the urgent need for rain to help the remaining pastures recover. He reiterates that unrolling hay is a strategy to 'buy time' for the other sections of the farm to regenerate. He discusses the economic aspect, noting that approximately $3 worth of hay per bale (totaling $600 annually for 200 bales) is lost to weather exposure. However, he views this as an acceptable cost for the benefit of improving soil health and grass growth. He reminds viewers that hay bales have a 'thatch roof' that naturally sheds water, preserving much of the bale. He requests prayers and good thoughts for much-needed wet and cool weather to alleviate the drought. https://www.youtube.com/embed/1yD2z6M0aBc 86 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tym-tractor-still-reliable-i-almost-let-this-go-too-far-v14605757 2026-10-24T03:30:04.982Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/7h6UHMMn09M/hqdefault.jpg TYM Tractor still reliable?

He then manages to drive the skid steer back up the steep incline without getting stuck, confirming the mulcher's capability and the chosen path's accessibility. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AGcKqWbGjqk 157 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/maybe-i-wont-break-it-this-time-v14605762/constructing-temporary-crossing-with-grapple-c3945339 2026-10-24T03:30:18.874Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AGcKqWbGjqk/hqdefault.jpg Constructing Temporary Crossing with Grapple — Maybe I won't Break it this Time! To create a temporary crossing over the wet 'waterfall' area, the mulcher attachment is detached from the skid steer and replaced with a Tri-L Heavy Duty Grapple. The narrator uses the grapple to carefully pick up and place large logs and piles of brush across the wet depression. This forms a makeshift bridge that allows the skid steer to cross without sinking into the soft ground. He makes several passes, adding layers of logs and brush, effectively 'covering up' the wet spot. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AGcKqWbGjqk 177 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/maybe-i-wont-break-it-this-time-v14605762/final-mulching-and-path-refinement-c3945340 2026-10-24T03:30:18.874Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AGcKqWbGjqk/hqdefault.jpg Final Mulching and Path Refinement — Maybe I won't Break it this Time! With the temporary crossing in place, the narrator reattaches the Tri-L Precision Mfg Bigfoot Cutter forestry mulcher to the skid steer. He then drives the skid steer with the mulcher across the cleared path and the newly constructed crossing, further refining the trail and clearing any remaining small brush and debris. This step aims to widen and smooth out the path, making it more permanently accessible for ongoing farm activities. The narrator notes that while it's still 'rough as a cob', the significant improvement allows for eventual mowing and future timber harvesting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/AGcKqWbGjqk 223 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/not-again-v14605763 2026-10-24T03:32:06.265Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vxcScj7ruhw/hqdefault.jpg 😡 NOT AGAIN!

The video begins with an overview of the project site, which is an overgrown section of a farm. The presenter introduces the main equipment: a yellow Gehl RT210 skid-steer loader equipped with a Tri-L Precision Manufacturing "Bigfoot Cutters" brush cutter. Other attachments like a Tri-L grapple and a tooth bucket are also shown. The area to be cleared is a former tobacco field that has been overgrown for about 40 years. The presenter walks through dense brush, identifying various tree types such as gum (undesirable), white oak (desirable), poplar (potential lumber), and Virginia/Southern Yellow Pine. He notes that the pine trees are being choked out by hardwoods and infested by pine beetles, making their removal necessary for both lumber (for projects like chicken coops, deer stands, and tower blinds) and firewood. The challenge of navigating rough terrain with dirt humps from fallen trees and a large maple stump blocking a path is also highlighted. An old fence line and a large, dying pine tree (too big for the sawmill) infested with pine beetles are pointed out, emphasizing the urgency of clearing. Invasive Japanese privet bushes and mosquitos are identified as additional obstacles. The overall goal is to mow a path, clear brush and debris to improve visibility to a nearby waterfall, and make the area suitable for wildlife and hunting. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vxcScj7ruhw 38 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/not-again-v14605763/skidsteer-preparation-and-lower-land-assessment-c3946261 2026-10-24T03:32:06.265Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vxcScj7ruhw/hqdefault.jpg Skid-Steer Preparation and Lower Land Assessment — 😡 NOT AGAIN!

The operator attempts to cross a small, seasonal creek with the skid-steer loader. Despite a brief assessment, the ground proves to be softer and muddier than anticipated. As the machine enters the creek bed, its tracks sink deep into the mud, and the belly of the skid-steer makes contact with the ground, causing it to become completely stuck. The operator attempts to use the brush cutter attachment as leverage to push the machine out, but without success. He exits the machine to assess the situation and notes that the ground was softer than expected, leaving the skid-steer unable to move. He concludes that a tractor cannot be brought down to assist and realizes he will need to 'phone a friend' for help to extract the stuck machine. The video ends with him humorously acknowledging the predicament and hinting at future attempts to clear the remaining brush, including using chainsaws for larger vegetation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vxcScj7ruhw 443 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/check-this-out-equip-expo-2024-v14605764 2026-10-22T22:27:35.732Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wXl5R8RzfBM/hqdefault.jpg Check this out!

Utilize post-driving machines to install the main line posts and end posts. Ensure posts are plumb and at the correct depth. For end posts or corner posts, install a brace (half-round timber) with the flat side against the soil, centered on a sub-grade stay block (minimum 6 inches below grade). This prevents the post from leaning due to wire tension. For posts on uneven terrain or dips, a 'swinging foot' method can be used, where a piece of wood attached to the wire is strained tight and stapled to the post to prevent upward lift. https://www.youtube.com/embed/RGHGQV9x3sw 162 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/ultimate-farm-fencing-showdown-you-wont-want-to-miss-this-v14605770/attach-and-tension-fencing-wire-c3945052 2026-10-24T03:29:52.764Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RGHGQV9x3sw/hqdefault.jpg Attach and Tension Fencing Wire — Ultimate Farm Fencing Showdown - You Won't Want To Miss This! After posts are installed, attach the wire (net wire, plane wire, barbed wire) to the posts. For barb wire, ensure it's 2 inches off the top of the post. For termination points, strip barbs off the end of the wire and tie a secure termination knot (like a figure-8 knot) around the post. Ensure all termination knots are even and aligned. Use a stretcher bar and chain strainer to pull the wire tight between posts. For net wire, each strand should be individually pulled to achieve even tension.

Time to weld Aluminum! To prepare the broken aluminum weld on the dump truck bed, use a Milwaukee cordless angle grinder equipped with a flap disc to clean and V-groove the area. This involves removing the old, broken weld material and creating an angled groove (V-shape) on both sides of the joint. This V-groove is critical for achieving full penetration and a strong, lasting weld, ensuring the filler metal can reach the root of the joint rather than just sitting on the surface. Similarly, for the broken tabs on the float dock, use the grinder to clean any old weld material and create a V-groove on the edges of the tabs that will be re-welded to the dock frame. https://www.youtube.com/embed/dcpl0GW5gmE 237 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/not-sure-how-i-broke-it-time-to-weld-aluminum-v14605772/aluminum-mig-welding-demonstration-c3945068 2026-10-24T03:29:53.252Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dcpl0GW5gmE/hqdefault.jpg Aluminum MIG Welding Demonstration — Not sure how I broke it! Time to weld Aluminum! Perform aluminum MIG welding using the Rebel EMP 285ic with a spool gun for the truck bed repair. For horizontal welds, maintain a 10-degree upward angle and focus on keeping the heat towards the top of the joint, allowing gravity to pull the molten filler metal downwards into the V-groove. For the dock tabs, use the Renegade Volt battery welder, which requires continuous wire feeding and a 'stepping' motion rather than circular. Focus on a short arc length and driving the rod into the joint. Adjust amperage settings based on material thickness and desired penetration. Clean slag after each pass with a chipping hammer and wire brush. https://www.youtube.com/embed/dcpl0GW5gmE 85 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/not-sure-how-i-broke-it-time-to-weld-aluminum-v14605772/plasma-cutting-stick-welding-demonstration-c3945071 2026-10-24T03:29:53.252Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dcpl0GW5gmE/hqdefault.jpg Plasma Cutting & Stick Welding Demonstration — Not sure how I broke it! Time to weld Aluminum! To create a support for the log trailer, set up the ESAB Cutmaster 50+ plasma cutter connected to a Ruffian generator and a DeWalt pancake air compressor. Mark the cutting line on a steel strap, ensuring the material is grounded. Wear appropriate eye protection and welding gloves. Position the plasma torch about 1/4 inch above the material and initiate the cut. The plasma cutter will vaporize the metal, creating a clean cut. After cutting, prepare the steel for stick welding by cleaning any rust or debris with the Milwaukee cordless angle grinder and a flap disc.

To tie a strong and reliable termination knot, cut a length of wire about 3 feet long. Create a small loop at one end and wrap it snugly around the fence post. Then, feed the long end of the wire back through the loop, making a 'lazy loop'. Hold the lazy loop in place and make two tight wraps around the wire on the side of the post. Use a crank handle (like the end of a spud wrench) to further tighten these wraps, ensuring they are extremely secure. This creates a secure, knotless termination that prevents the wire from slipping or loosening. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ewt0MWB2ek8 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/i-messed-up-and-the-cows-are-destroying-it-v14605782/connect-hot-wire-to-bullnose-insulator-c3945088 2026-10-24T03:29:54.196Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ewt0MWB2ek8/hqdefault.jpg Connect Hot Wire to Bullnose Insulator — I messed up and the cows are destroying it! For high-strain applications like corner posts, tie the hot wire to a bullnose insulator. First, create a small bend in the wire and slide it into the bullnose insulator. Then, make six tight wraps of the wire around itself to secure it to the insulator. Use a crank handle to tighten these wraps, and then use your Nipex cutters to snap off the excess wire. If the wire doesn't snap off cleanly, bend it back and forth until it breaks, leaving no sharp edges. This method creates a strong connection while allowing the insulator to pivot, reducing stress on the fence. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ewt0MWB2ek8 40 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/i-messed-up-and-the-cows-are-destroying-it-v14605782/join-wire-with-a-gripple-c3945089 2026-10-24T03:29:54.196Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ewt0MWB2ek8/hqdefault.jpg Join Wire with a Gripple — I messed up and the cows are destroying it!

Learn ho The farmer showcases a three-year-old pasture that was originally cleared forest and is still in a poor state, characterized by sparse grass and broom sedge, which indicates acidic and compacted soil. To regenerate such areas, he explains the practice of "bale grazing." During the winter, large round hay bales are unrolled across these pastures. The cows consume part of the hay, and the remaining hay, along with their manure, acts as biomass and pH-neutral fertilizer, enriching the soil and slowly correcting its acidity and compaction. This process transforms bare or poor land into lush, productive pasture. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SEsD68MB-YU 168 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/healing-our-earth-with-common-sense-farming-learn-how-real-food-is-v14605785/optimize-pasture-growth-through-rotational-grazing-c3953109 2026-10-24T04:50:22.087Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SEsD68MB-YU/hqdefault.jpg Optimize Pasture Growth through Rotational Grazing — Healing our earth with common sense farming! Le To maintain optimal grass growth, the farmer practices intensive rotational grazing, explaining the concept of keeping grass in its "teenage years" for vigorous growth. This is achieved by moving cows frequently between paddocks. The grazing strategy involves allowing cows to eat one-third of the available forage, trample another third, and leave one-third. This method prevents the grass from entering senescence (an aging phase where growth slows) and promotes continuous vigorous regrowth, while simultaneously returning organic matter and nutrients to the soil. https://www.youtube.com/embed/SEsD68MB-YU 129 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/healing-our-earth-with-common-sense-farming-learn-how-real-food-is-v14605785/cultivate-healthy-and-resilient-livestock-c3953110 2026-10-24T04:50:22.087Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SEsD68MB-YU/hqdefault.jpg Cultivate Healthy and Resilient Livestock — Healing our earth with common sense farming!

A workaround is implemented by connecting the two wing cylinders to the available hydraulic remotes. The main deck cylinder is left unconnected, implying the mower's main deck will float. To prevent damage to the hydraulic hoses from the power take-off (PTO) shaft, the hoses are securely zip-tied to the three-point hitch. The operator notes that more modern tractors typically engage the PTO via a button rather than a manual clutch, which he prefers for more control. https://www.youtube.com/embed/dRMc2CShFUw 100 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/did-i-just-break-another-tractor-55hp-tym-batwing-challenge-v14605789/start-tractor-and-test-hydraulicspto-c3945886 2026-10-24T03:31:34.808Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dRMc2CShFUw/hqdefault.jpg Start Tractor and Test Hydraulics/PTO — Did I just Break Another Tractor? 55hp TYM Batwing Challenge The operator enters the tractor cab and starts the engine.

Easiest way to sharpen and Maintain Your After sharpening, it's essential to check and adjust the chain tension. A good rule of thumb is the 'nickel test': pull the chain up from the bar and attempt to slide a nickel (or two stacked dimes, which is approximately the same thickness) underneath the chain. If it slides in snugly but is tight, the tension is correct. If it's too loose, or if you can't slide it in, adjust the tension screw on your chainsaw. To adjust the tension, slightly loosen the bar nuts, turn the tension screw until the desired tension is achieved (using the nickel test as a guide), and then re-tighten the bar nuts, lifting slightly on the bar as you tighten to ensure proper alignment and tension. https://www.youtube.com/embed/2t4mrpyb-VM 37 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sharpen-any-chainsaw-fast-easiest-way-to-sharpen-and-maintain-your-v14605798/clean-the-guide-bar-and-clutch-area-c3946384 2026-10-24T03:32:13.855Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/2t4mrpyb-VM/hqdefault.jpg Clean the Guide Bar and Clutch Area — Sharpen any Chainsaw Fast! Easiest way to sharpen and Maintain After sharpening and tensioning, it's crucial to clean the chainsaw's bar and clutch area. Begin by removing the bar nuts and the clutch cover. Use the pointed end of the scrunch (or a dedicated bar groove cleaner) to scrape out sawdust and debris from the guide bar's groove. Once the groove is clean, use a portable air pump, like the Milwaukee M18 HD12.0 battery-powered air pump, to blow out any remaining sawdust and debris from the bar groove and around the clutch assembly. This prevents clogs and ensures proper oil flow to the chain and bar.

While the grass may appear to enter 'senescence' (not actively growing) on the surface, beneath the ground, this dry spell forces the root systems to work harder, seeking water deeper within the soil. This process is super important for developing robust and drought-resistant plants. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gQ2sWCn9qto 113 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-rain-in-weeks-why-drought-can-be-good-for-farms-gardens-and-lawns-v14605816/promote-deep-root-system-development-c3732419 2026-10-22T22:16:23.374Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gQ2sWCn9qto/hqdefault.jpg Promote Deep Root System Development — No Rain In Weeks! Why Drought can Be Good for Farms, Gardens Unlike spring, when moisture is abundant in the topsoil (first 4-6 inches) and root systems spread horizontally near the surface, dry conditions necessitate downward root growth. When the surface dries, roots are 'starving for water' and actively extend deeper to find moisture. This natural process helps to break up compacted 'hardpan' layers in the soil and contributes to increased biomass below ground, making the soil healthier and more permeable for future water absorption. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gQ2sWCn9qto 90 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-rain-in-weeks-why-drought-can-be-good-for-farms-gardens-and-lawns-v14605816/avoid-overpruning-or-overgrazing-c3732432 2026-10-22T22:16:23.374Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gQ2sWCn9qto/hqdefault.jpg Avoid Over-Pruning or Over-Grazing — No Rain In Weeks! Why Drought can Be Good for Farms, Gardens an The speaker emphasizes that over-pruning (mowing too short) or over-grazing (allowing livestock to eat grass down to the nub) stunts the growth of the grass and, critically, its root system. To stimulate healthy root growth that drives deeper into the soil, it's essential to keep at least 5 to 6 inches of good quality forage or lawn up. This foliage acts as a 'solar panel,' continuously feeding the plant and providing the energy needed to push roots further down into the ground. Maintaining adequate grass height allows the plant to efficiently conduct photosynthesis, which is directly linked to robust root development. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gQ2sWCn9qto 100 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-rain-in-weeks-why-drought-can-be-good-for-farms-gardens-and-lawns-v14605816/implement-strategic-sacrifice-areas-for-pastures-c3732438 2026-10-22T22:16:23.374Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gQ2sWCn9qto/hqdefault.jpg Implement Strategic Sacrifice Areas (for Pastures) — No Rain In Weeks! Why Drought can Be Good for F For livestock owners, the speaker advises against moving animals to fresh pasture daily during severe dry times. Instead, create a 'sacrifice spot' – a larger paddock with ample shade and water access. In this area, allow the cattle to over-graze, and supplement their feed with hay. The hay, along with manure and urine from the animals, will naturally fertilize and improve the soil in this sacrifice zone. This strategy protects other pastures from being over-stressed, allowing them to recover and build deeper root systems without constant disturbance. The cattle should not return to a grazed pasture for at least 45 days to allow for full recovery. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gQ2sWCn9qto 85 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/no-rain-in-weeks-why-drought-can-be-good-for-farms-gardens-and-lawns-v14605816/foster-longterm-soil-plant-health-c3732441 2026-10-22T22:16:23.374Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gQ2sWCn9qto/hqdefault.jpg Foster Long-Term Soil & Plant Health — No Rain In Weeks! Why Drought can Be Good for Farms, Gardens The overall goal of these management practices during dry times is to stress the plant just enough to encourage it to send roots deeper into the soil. This deep root growth breaks up soil compaction, improves soil structure, and ultimately leads to a better quality of forage, lawn, or garden. In the fall, when wet seasons return, the improved soil structure will allow water to penetrate deeper, further enhancing the benefits. The land will 'pay you dividends' in terms of more robust and productive growth in subsequent seasons. So, during hot, dry spells, remember to let your grass grow taller, avoid over-watering the garden, and let your plants work to build their vital, deep root systems. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gQ2sWCn9qto 147 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/race-car-rescue-from-the-scrap-yard-does-it-run-v14605817 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RiZxFGulwxI/hqdefault.jpg Race Car Rescue From the Scrap Yard!

The farmer explains the core principle of intensive rotational grazing: move cattle frequently (e.g., every 12 hours) to prevent overgrazing. He highlights the negative impact of overgrazing, which stunts grass growth and root systems, making pastures less productive and increasing parasite loads for animals. The goal is to graze one-third of the grass, trample one-third into the soil, and leave one-third standing to support rapid regrowth and soil health. He shows a distinct line between a 12-hour grazed section and a 24-hour grazed section, illustrating the impact. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fcfX7cHvbfQ 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/its-time-for-a-changebefore-i-ruin-everything-v14605832/moving-cattle-to-new-paddock-and-winter-strategy-c3946481 2026-10-24T03:32:19.134Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fcfX7cHvbfQ/hqdefault.jpg Moving Cattle to New Paddock and Winter Strategy — It's time for a change...before I ruin everything The farmer guides the herd of cattle from their current paddock to a new, fresh section of pasture.

The farmer concludes by reiterating the importance of constantly moving cattle ('move, mob, mow') to prune grass rather than simply harvesting it. This technique prevents grass from going into the 'bolt' stage (sending up seed heads), which stops growth and reduces nutritional value. Moving animals frequently promotes continuous growth, healthier root systems, and biodiverse pastures, leading to healthier animals with fewer parasites and flies. He encourages viewers to implement these practices for improved farm health. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fcfX7cHvbfQ 65 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-probiotic-pickled-cabbage-at-home-only-2-ingredients-v14605833 2026-10-24T03:32:19.403Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8yQIpRtmMug/hqdefault.jpg How to Make Probiotic Pickled Cabbage at Home only 2 ingredients!

Continue mashing until you see a visible layer of water (brine) pooling at the bottom of the crock. If the water isn't immediately visible, mash, then let the cabbage sit for about 30 minutes, and mash again. You should not need to add additional water, as the salt will draw enough moisture from fresh cabbage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8yQIpRtmMug 139 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-make-probiotic-pickled-cabbage-at-home-only-2-ingredients-v14605833/seal-the-crock-for-fermentation-c3946498 2026-10-24T03:32:19.403Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8yQIpRtmMug/hqdefault.jpg Seal the Crock for Fermentation — How to Make Probiotic Pickled Cabbage at Home only 2 ingredients! Once the cabbage is mashed and submerged in its own brine, place a few of the larger, intact cabbage leaves you saved earlier on top of the shredded cabbage. These leaves act as a barrier to keep smaller pieces of cabbage from floating up. Next, carefully place the ceramic fermentation weights on top of the cabbage leaves. Press down firmly to ensure the weights are fully submerged under the brine. Clean any stray cabbage bits from the rim of the crock. Finally, pour water into the water seal channel around the rim of the crock and place the water-seal lid firmly in place. This creates an anaerobic environment essential for proper fermentation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8yQIpRtmMug 164 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/must-see-1300-push-mower-milwaukee-unbiased-full-review-v14605834 2026-10-24T03:32:45.738Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IfxSoGvVdUk/hqdefault.jpg MUST SEE $1300 Push Mower | Milwaukee Unbiased Full Review This video presents a comprehensive review and performance test of the Milwaukee M18 Fuel battery-powered push mower.

After preparing the beds, it's time to plant new seedlings. The creator shows various seedlings, including sweet bell peppers (yellow and green varieties), pickling cucumbers, and several types of tomatoes (Mr. Stripey, Big Boy, Better Boy, and German Johnson) obtained from a local nursery. To plant, gently squeeze the seedling container to loosen the soil, then carefully flip it over and pat the bottom until the root-bound plant slides out. Place the seedling into a pre-dug hole in the raised bed. For tomatoes, plant them deeply, burying part of the stem, as this encourages the development of new roots along the buried stem, leading to a stronger plant. Ensure you label each tomato variety to keep track of what you've planted.

The creator uses white polybraid fencing and pigtail posts. Start by pushing or stepping the pigtail posts into the ground around the perimeter of the garden beds. Space the posts approximately 16 to 32 inches apart, depending on the desired tension and the terrain. Thread two lines of polybraid through the loops of the posts, creating a two-dimensional barrier. If the polybraid sags, simply wrap it around a post a couple of times to tighten it. The fence is energized by a Zareba brand solar fence charger, which is connected to a ground post. This simple setup relies on deer's poor depth perception; they are deterred by the visual barrier and a mild static shock upon contact. https://www.youtube.com/embed/FDl4tp528dE 183 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/clearing-landwhat-did-it-cost-v14605839 2026-10-24T03:32:25.982Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AGeBxMeUjCg/hqdefault.jpg 💰 Clearing Land…What did it cost?

He systematically sprays the Nutri-Graze solution in parallel stripes across the field. He highlights the importance of existing grass growth (around 4 to 6 inches) for effective foliar uptake of the product. He notes that the pasture being sprayed is one of the farm's less fertile areas, and points out a naturally greener strip where buried decaying trees provide extra nutrients. He also plans to spray an adjacent over-grazed paddock to compare results. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8jeG2wcPf_c 132 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/time-to-test-this-stuff-on-the-pastures-but-will-it-work-v14605846/assess-results-and-future-plans-c3944914 2026-10-24T03:29:44.833Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8jeG2wcPf_c/hqdefault.jpg Assess Results and Future Plans — Time to test this stuff on the pastures! But will it work? Two weeks post-application, the presenter assesses the pasture. He observes that the entire farm appears greener than the previous year, attributing this improvement partly to his intensive grazing program and partly to the Nutri-Graze. Despite minimal rainfall since application (only one small rainstorm the day after spraying), he sees positive results. Although there are no distinct dark green stripes in the treated areas visible from a distance, he notes that wherever he sprayed, particularly around existing manure or urine patches, the grass is noticeably thicker and less sparse. He concludes that Nutri-Graze works by stimulating microbial growth in the soil, which in turn fixes nitrogen, reducing the need for costly chemical fertilizers and leading to increased forage production and a healthier root system. He encourages viewers to research the product and consider how it might benefit their operations. https://www.youtube.com/embed/8jeG2wcPf_c 263 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg They brought 500 tons of this stuff!!

The project begins with an introduction to the goal: moving large quantities of fill dirt to level the area behind a new 'Mega Shop' building. This will create a functional backyard, ensure proper drainage around the structure, and provide a level base for future construction like a deck and an outdoor kitchen. The narrator explains that fill dirt is being acquired from a local airport construction project, available for the cost of transport. They highlight the intention to use dump trucks to deliver the dirt and a skid steer for spreading and leveling. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 63 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847/site-preparation-and-access-setup-c3945781 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg Site Preparation and Access Setup — They brought 500 tons of this stuff!! Before dirt deliveries can begin, several preparatory tasks are necessary. First, existing equipment, including a blue Honda ATV (Four-wheeler) loaded with miscellaneous items (honeybee cages, spray bottles, a Toastmaster hot plate), tractors (Mahindra, John Deere), and other implements, must be moved to clear the work area. The main gate leading to the property also needs to be opened to allow large dump trucks to enter and exit freely. This involves using a LiftMaster gate opener to ensure the gate stays open throughout the day. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 111 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847/detailed-site-assessment-and-drainage-plan-c3945782 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg Detailed Site Assessment and Drainage Plan — They brought 500 tons of this stuff!! After the initial introduction, the narrator provides a detailed site assessment, pointing out existing drainage 'pop-ups' around the Mega Shop building. These pop-ups are designed to open and release water when filled but are currently obstructed by debris and uneven terrain. The area behind the shop slopes steeply, with several drops and uneven sections, including a low point where a septic pipe (sewer pipe) terminates and a transformer is located. The objective is to bring in sufficient fill dirt to level this entire transition area, allowing for smooth water flow, easier mowing, and creating a large, beautiful backyard. The narrator also mentions plans to clear additional land for an expanded view from the future deck and outdoor kitchen. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 114 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847/outdoor-kitchen-and-aesthetic-goals-c3945783 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg Outdoor Kitchen and Aesthetic Goals — They brought 500 tons of this stuff!! The outdoor kitchen structure, built with timber frames from Carolina Barn Builders, is shown. It is located near the area requiring fill dirt.

The first dump truck (a large Mack truck with a red bed, capable of hauling 16 tons of dirt per load) arrives at the site. The narrator directs the truck driver to back into the designated area and begin dumping. Because the terrain is significantly sloped, the narrator recognizes the risk of the dump truck overturning if not properly handled. He instructs the driver to start dumping where they feel safe and then uses a skid steer to create level platforms for subsequent, further-back loads. This ensures the truck always dumps on stable, flat ground. They aim to fill the area progressively, moving back with each load. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 248 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847/bulk-dirt-delivery-and-initial-grading-c3945792 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg Bulk Dirt Delivery and Initial Grading — They brought 500 tons of this stuff!! Over two days, additional loads of fill dirt are delivered by the dump trucks. The video shows time-lapses and drone footage of the trucks backing up, dumping their 16-ton loads, and then driving away. The piles of dirt gradually grow, extending further back from the building. The narrator confirms that approximately 28 loads of dirt were delivered over these two days. This process focuses on getting the bulk of the material onto the site, filling the major low spots and starting to build up the desired grade. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 321 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/they-brought-500-tons-of-this-stuff-v14605847/final-grading-and-smoothing-with-land-leveler-c3945795 2026-10-24T03:31:17.849Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xDA_wrhbqLs/hqdefault.jpg Final Grading and Smoothing with Land Leveler — They brought 500 tons of this stuff!! With all the dirt delivered, the final step involves using the skid steer for comprehensive grading and leveling. The narrator first uses the Raptor Attachments Tooth Bucket to spread the large piles of red clay, ensuring it flows smoothly across the entire area, covering drainage pop-ups while maintaining their function. After initial spreading, the attachment is changed to a Raptor Attachments Land Leveler. This tool is then used to achieve a very smooth, precise grade, creating the desired aesthetic and functional landscape for the future backyard, deck, and outdoor kitchen areas. The goal is to make the entire area easy to mow and visually appealing, with gentle slopes. https://www.youtube.com/embed/xDA_wrhbqLs 529 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chicksgreat-ideas-for-healthy-flocks-v14605848 2026-10-24T03:32:06.689Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d-BK1PspMyA/hqdefault.jpg How to raise baby Chicks...great ideas for healthy flocks!

The coop is shown with existing chicks (from an earlier brood) and details its construction, including roll-out nest boxes for egg collection (from HenGear.com) and roosting bars for adult birds. The farmer explains the coop's design facilitates 'pasture sanitation' by allowing chickens to scratch through manure and clean the pasture. The inside of the coop currently contains matted-down manure and feathers from previous occupants, indicating the need for cleaning before the arrival of new chicks. https://www.youtube.com/embed/d-BK1PspMyA 171 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chicksgreat-ideas-for-healthy-flocks-v14605848/relocate-the-mobile-coop-c3946278 2026-10-24T03:32:06.689Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d-BK1PspMyA/hqdefault.jpg Relocate the Mobile Coop — How to raise baby Chicks...great ideas for healthy flocks! Before cleaning, the coop door is closed using its latch system. The farmer then backs up a red Honda Pioneer side-by-side to the coop and hitches it using a sturdy hitch pin. He drives the side-by-side, pulling the mobile coop, across the field to a new location. Once parked, he unhitches the coop, which has wheels that allow for easy relocation. The farmer expresses concern about the side-by-side's lack of a dedicated parking brake, relying only on the transmission's park mechanism when towing heavy loads on inclines. https://www.youtube.com/embed/d-BK1PspMyA 140 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chicksgreat-ideas-for-healthy-flocks-v14605848/clean-out-old-manure-and-bedding-c3946279 2026-10-24T03:32:06.689Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d-BK1PspMyA/hqdefault.jpg Clean Out Old Manure and Bedding — How to raise baby Chicks...great ideas for healthy flocks!

He uses the shovel to load large quantities of sawdust from the pile into the back of the coop, creating a deep layer of fresh bedding. Once a sufficient amount of sawdust is in place, he uses the rake to spread it evenly across the entire floor of the coop, ensuring a soft, absorbent, and comfortable surface for the incoming chicks. This fresh bedding helps maintain hygiene and warmth. https://www.youtube.com/embed/d-BK1PspMyA 119 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chicksgreat-ideas-for-healthy-flocks-v14605848/set-up-brooder-equipment-c3946288 2026-10-24T03:32:06.689Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d-BK1PspMyA/hqdefault.jpg Set Up Brooder Equipment — How to raise baby Chicks...great ideas for healthy flocks! The farmer arranges the essential brooding equipment inside the coop. He hangs a heat lamp to provide warmth for the chicks, explaining that even though it's warm outside, the chicks need consistent heat. He sets up a 5-Quart Poultry Drinker (waterer) and long metal chick feeders (from Harris Farms) on cardboard squares. Placing these items on cardboard prevents the chicks from kicking sawdust into their food and water, which keeps them clean. He also advises ensuring the waterer is level, or slightly downhill towards the spout, to prevent accidental overflowing and making the bedding wet. https://www.youtube.com/embed/d-BK1PspMyA 70 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-to-raise-baby-chicksgreat-ideas-for-healthy-flocks-v14605848/introduce-new-baby-chicks-c3946290 2026-10-24T03:32:06.689Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d-BK1PspMyA/hqdefault.jpg Introduce New Baby Chicks — How to raise baby Chicks...great ideas for healthy flocks! The farmer retrieves several boxes containing 75 American Bresse chicks from his blue ATV, having picked them up from the post office. He gently pours the chicks from each box directly onto the sawdust bedding under the warm heat lamp inside the mobile coop. He mentions that all 75 chicks survived the journey. The chicks immediately begin exploring their new environment, some even pecking at the sawdust. He notes the need to block the coop door to prevent them from escaping. The farmer highlights that these are American Bresse dual-purpose chickens, known for their meat and egg-laying capabilities, and their active foraging habits, making them ideal for pasture. He emphasizes the ability to breed and hatch one's own chicks with this breed, ensuring a self-sustaining flock. https://www.youtube.com/embed/d-BK1PspMyA 299 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s it all Work?

He then transitions to showing a visit to 'Triad Bee Supply' in Trinity, North Carolina, where he collects a new package of honeybees. He highlights that this supply store, run by his friend John, provides packaged bees (3lb Italian bees from Georgia) and beekeeping equipment. The presenter explains that this year they are doing two bee package pickups. On the drive home, he advises carefully brushing off any loose bees from the packages before placing them inside the car to prevent bees from flying around and causing accidents. This stage is analogous to sourcing quality compost and ensuring its safe transport to the garden beds for application. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GV65wVXWAcM 162 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849/preparing-the-specialized-habitat-unit-c3946668 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Preparing the Specialized Habitat Unit — Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s it all Work? Upon returning to the farm, the presenter showcases the prepared bee package and discusses the components of the beehive. He introduces an 8-frame Langstroth hive setup, emphasizing his preference for medium supers due to their rotatability, which is beneficial for bees in different seasons, unlike deeps. He then details preparing the hive by removing the metal outer cover and the wooden inner cover, revealing a feeding hole. Next, four empty frames of drawn-out comb are removed from the hive's interior to create space for the bee package. These frames still contain remnants of old comb, which the new bees will clean up. He also mentions the importance of setting the hive's bottom entrance reducer to the smallest opening to protect the new, smaller colony. This process is similar to preparing a specific section of a garden bed by clearing space and setting up initial structures before applying new compost or introducing specialized plants. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GV65wVXWAcM 258 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849/acclimating-and-accessing-beneficial-organisms-c3946669 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Acclimating and Accessing Beneficial Organisms — Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s it all The presenter demonstrates calming the beneficial organisms (honeybees) before their introduction. He uses a spray bottle filled with lukewarm water to generously mist the bees through the mesh sides of their package. This makes the bees less agitated and heavier, causing them to cling together, which facilitates easier transfer and reduces escape. He then uses a hive tool to carefully pry open the access panel on top of the bee package, revealing a small tin can filled with sugar syrup (likely high-fructose corn syrup, which he notes is common but not ideal long-term) and the queen bee in her separate cage. The sugar syrup can is removed using a magnet, and the queen cage is carefully detached from the package structure using the hive tool to break staples. This step of organism acclimation is crucial for a smooth and successful transition, similar to pre-treating compost to encourage microbial activity before application. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GV65wVXWAcM 101 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849/introducing-the-organism-colony-to-its-habitat-c3946672 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Introducing the Organism Colony to its Habitat — Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s it all Wearing full beekeeping PPE, the presenter carefully places the queen cage aside. He then positions the bee package directly over the opening of the prepared beehive and gives it a few firm shakes. This action dislodges the majority of the bees from the package, causing them to fall into their new hive. Once most bees are transferred, the empty package is removed. The four frames of drawn-out comb that were previously removed are then gently placed back into the hive, flanking the cluster of newly introduced bees. This process facilitates the rapid establishment of the colony in its new habitat, akin to carefully distributing new compost or beneficial insects to specific areas within a garden bed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GV65wVXWAcM 55 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849/providing-initial-nourishment-and-securing-the-habitat-c3946674 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Providing Initial Nourishment and Securing the Habitat — Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s With the worker bees settled, the presenter addresses the queen. He removes a small cork from one end of her cage, revealing 'queen candy' (sugar paste). The worker bees will then eat through this candy to release her over the next 2-3 days, allowing for a gradual introduction and acceptance by the new colony. The queen cage is then carefully placed between two frames inside the hive. The inner cover is inverted and placed on top of the brood box, ensuring the feeding hole is facing upwards. The sugar syrup can is then placed over this hole, providing an accessible food source for the colony. Finally, an empty medium super is placed on top of the inner cover, followed by the outer metal cover. This ensures the newly established colony has immediate access to food and a secure, spacious environment to grow, which parallels adding nutrients and covering a newly enriched garden bed. https://www.youtube.com/embed/GV65wVXWAcM 54 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-something-today-honey-bees-101-hows-it-all-work-v14605849/postestablishment-habitat-management-c3946675 2026-10-24T03:32:35.947Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GV65wVXWAcM/hqdefault.jpg Post-Establishment Habitat Management — Learn Something Today: Honey Bees 101 How’s it all Work? After the hive is fully assembled, the presenter points out a potential issue: an unused hole in the top super. He advises plugging this hole to prevent unwanted pest entry or bee confusion. He demonstrates using a small clump of grass, or preferably, burr comb wax, to block the opening.

The narrator emphasizes the goal of 'fixing the soil,' not just adding nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK). This holistic approach aims to heal the earth, increase biodiversity, and raise animals in a way that benefits the environment. The narrator positions this approach as a solution to concerns about cattle's environmental impact, highlighting that when raised regeneratively, cattle actually improve the soil and air quality. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 110 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/implement-rotational-grazing-with-electric-fencing-c3946588 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Implement Rotational Grazing with Electric Fencing — Farmer speaks out about animals healing the lan Begin implementing rotational grazing by using a single poly-strand electric fence to section off paddocks within a larger pasture. The herd of cattle (approximately 50-plus in the video) is moved into a new, fresh paddock for a limited time, typically a few hours (e.g., five hours for a two-acre paddock). This concentrated grazing allows the cattle to eat only the most vigorous growth of grass and then move on, preventing overgrazing and promoting rapid recovery of the grazed area. The narrator expresses the joy derived from seeing the animals happy and the land thriving through these practices. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 47 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/prioritize-soil-health-and-carbon-sequestration-c3946589 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Prioritize Soil Health and Carbon Sequestration — Farmer speaks out about animals healing the land, Embrace the concept of soil as a living entity, rich in microbes, earthworms, and fungi, which are essential for nutrient cycling and overall soil health. Understand that everything the soil and grass needs does not come from a bag of commercial fertilizer. Instead, focus on practices that enhance natural soil processes. Ruminant animals, like cattle, play a vital role because their digestive systems can process grass (which humans cannot), producing pH-neutral manure that enriches the soil. This process, combined with photosynthesis, actively pulls carbon from the atmosphere and sequesters it into the soil, counteracting the effects of atmospheric carbon. The narrator stresses the importance of having a diverse ecosystem, including ruminant grazers and keystone predators (like humans managing cattle), to maintain balance. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 289 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/improve-soil-with-hay-unrolling-and-seeding-c3946590 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Improve Soil with Hay Unrolling and Seeding — Farmer speaks out about animals healing the land, soil To introduce organic matter and nutrients to depleted areas, utilize a bale unroller pulled by an ATV (like the Honda Rubicon shown, with a Greg Judy Bale Unroller attachment). This low-impact machinery helps prevent soil compaction. Drive the ATV and unroller across bare or underperforming areas of the pasture, distributing hay and grass seed (Kentucky 32 Fescue seed is mentioned, but other multi-species grasses are also used). The cattle's hooves then naturally press the seeds into the ground, eliminating the need for heavy equipment, diesel fuel, or extensive tilling. This method not only feeds the animals but also adds valuable organic matter, seeds, and manure to the soil, initiating a natural healing process. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 163 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/target-degraded-areas-with-bale-grazing-c3946591 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Target Degraded Areas with Bale Grazing — Farmer speaks out about animals healing the land, soil, wa For severely degraded or barren areas, employ bale grazing. This involves placing entire hay bales directly onto the target spots in the pasture. The cattle will graze on the hay, and their activity around the bale, along with their manure and urine, will heavily fertilize and reseed the immediate area. This concentrated impact encourages microbial life and new grass growth, transforming dead soil into living soil. The resulting manure patties act as mini-compost piles, each representing a 'dollar bill' of natural fertilizer. This method aims to heal specific areas more intensively than unrolling hay, focusing on building soil structure and fertility from the ground up. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 145 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/manage-grass-growth-for-optimal-soil-benefits-c3946592 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Manage Grass Growth for Optimal Soil Benefits — Farmer speaks out about animals healing the land, so Implement an intensive management system where pastures are given long rest periods (e.g., a full 90 days) between grazing cycles. This allows the grass to fully recover, deepen its root systems, and enter a vigorous growth stage before cattle return. The goal is to 'nip off the top' of the grass, keeping it from going into senescence (where it shoots a seed head and stops growing as fast). Healthy, vigorously growing grass acts as a 'tiny solar panel,' continually pulling carbon and fixing nitrogen into the soil. For areas where livestock isn't feasible, intensive mowing can mimic the effect of grazing by keeping the grass in a growth phase, though animal impact remains superior for soil health. https://www.youtube.com/embed/vc57JUTKfUA 63 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/farmer-speaks-out-about-animals-healing-the-land-soil-water-and-air-v14605853/observe-and-replicate-the-benefits-of-regenerative-practices-c3946593 2026-10-24T03:32:26.241Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vc57JUTKfUA/hqdefault.jpg Observe and Replicate the Benefits of Regenerative Practices — Farmer speaks out about animals heali The video concludes by reiterating the profound benefits of regenerative farming: transforming barren land into vibrant, productive pasture without the need for commercial fertilizers, herbicides, or grain.

Can you earn a living with cattle? Surprised? The farm raises grass-fed beef, meaning the cattle are not fed grain, which is typical in feedlot operations. Importantly, the animals do not receive routine dewormer (only if visibly 'wormy'), antibiotics (only if genuinely sick), or steroids. Furthermore, young bull calves are not castrated as babies (to become steers for market) nor are hormones implanted. The philosophy is to allow nature's hormones to grow the animals naturally, in contrast to the confined, often unsanitary, and heavily medicated conditions found in many industrial feedlots, which he argues produce 'fluff' beef. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kjBMp5kOF_o 135 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dream-of-owning-a-farm-can-you-earn-a-living-with-cattle-surprised-v14605863/analysis-of-cattle-sales-and-profitability-c3946889 2026-10-24T03:32:49.408Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kjBMp5kOF_o/hqdefault.jpg Analysis of Cattle Sales and Profitability — Dream of owning a farm? Can you earn a living with catt The farmer presents a detailed breakdown of his recent cattle sales. He sold 15 animals (a mix of adult cows, young bulls, and heifers) at the market. An adult cow weighing 1135 lbs sold for $1.19/lb, totaling $1350.65. This particular cow, purchased pregnant for $1200 two years prior, generated a $150 profit on the animal itself, in addition to two calves born during its time on the farm, indicating a solid return on investment (over 10% interest for two years). Younger, lighter animals (bulls and heifers between 300-500 lbs) fetched significantly higher prices per pound, ranging from $2.60 to $3.30. The highest per-pound price was $3.30 for a 315 lb bull, yielding $1039.50. The average price per head for the 15 animals was $791.41. The total income from selling these 15 animals was $16,281.63, which covered all hay costs for 2023 and 2024. He estimates a net profit of $8,000 to $10,000 for the year, with potential to earn up to $32,000 from 32 mama cows if each calf sells for $750-$1000. https://www.youtube.com/embed/kjBMp5kOF_o 275 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dream-of-owning-a-farm-can-you-earn-a-living-with-cattle-surprised-v14605863/future-farm-management-and-outlook-c3946893 2026-10-24T03:32:49.408Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kjBMp5kOF_o/hqdefault.jpg Future Farm Management and Outlook — Dream of owning a farm?

The video showcases how cattle are moved across pastures (in this case, 85 fenced acres of 'very poor soil' on the Stoney Ridge Farm) to allow grass to recover and promote soil health. This contrasts with continuous grazing or methods requiring frequent relocation to a feedlot. For smaller farms, rotational grazing helps maximize the use of available forage and naturally distribute manure, contributing to soil building. The goal is to keep pastures green year-round and increase drought tolerance. https://www.youtube.com/embed/JjwmWU6TF7g 34 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-truth-are-homesteadersfarmersranchers-on-youtube-misleading-you-v14605864/optimize-manure-distribution-and-soil-health-c3944708 2026-10-24T03:29:26.887Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JjwmWU6TF7g/hqdefault.jpg Optimize Manure Distribution and Soil Health — The TRUTH!

For Stoney Ridge Farm, this involves unrolling hay bales directly onto pastures, which not only feeds the cattle but also distributes grass seeds and organic matter, reducing the need for separate seeding operations. The presenter cautions against the high costs and labor involved in cutting and baling your own hay with expensive machinery (e.g., $70,000 tractor, $40,000 baler). For smaller operations with limited land and capital, purchasing hay and strategically unrolling it can be a more economically viable and regenerative approach than investing in hay-making equipment. https://www.youtube.com/embed/JjwmWU6TF7g 145 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-truth-are-homesteadersfarmersranchers-on-youtube-misleading-you-v14605864/prioritize-soil-building-over-chemical-inputs-c3944710 2026-10-24T03:29:26.887Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JjwmWU6TF7g/hqdefault.jpg Prioritize Soil Building Over Chemical Inputs — The TRUTH!

Best of the National Farm Machiner The host visits the Limbsaw Company booth to showcase their tree trimming attachments. The LS8 model, a chainsaw attachment with a 20-inch bar and self-oiler, is introduced. It typically comes with an 8-foot boom and attaches to any tractor bucket or quick-attach plate. The chainsaw requires 7 gallons per minute of hydraulic fluid for lubrication, and one quart provides enough lubrication for approximately 200 cuts. A quick-attach plate allows easy swapping between the chainsaw and a circular saw attachment. The circular saw, designed for material up to 5 inches in diameter, is described as ideal for clearing areas at the edges of pastures. The chainsaw is for larger branches up to 12 inches. Both attachments utilize a hydraulic dampener to absorb stress during cutting, extending 18-20 feet depending on the tractor setup. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cefjwhzN84E 188 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/look-what-i-found-best-of-the-national-farm-machinery-show-2024-v14605873/presenting-wingfield-american-harrows-c3736226 2026-10-22T22:18:27.387Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cefjwhzN84E/hqdefault.jpg Presenting Wingfield American Harrows — Look what I found!

They showcase an 8-foot three-point hitch standard harrow, which can be expanded by adding wings to achieve working widths of 8, 10, or 12 feet, or a larger 5x7 or 6x9 wing setup. These harrows are quick-hitch ready, fitting Category 1, 2, or 3 hitches. The design allows adjustment of aggressiveness by changing the chain connections, offering aggressive, less aggressive, or even upside-down configurations. They also present a 25-foot harrow cart, which has an 8-foot transport width and can cover a wide area. This cart can be pulled by tractors with as little as 25 horsepower and features wheels on the wings to contour to hilly terrain, making it versatile. It frees up the tractor's three-point hitch for other attachments like a broadcast seed spreader. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cefjwhzN84E 174 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/look-what-i-found-best-of-the-national-farm-machinery-show-2024-v14605873/introducing-deweze-bale-unroller-truck-beds-c3736228 2026-10-22T22:18:27.387Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cefjwhzN84E/hqdefault.jpg Introducing DewEze Bale Unroller Truck Beds — Look what I found! Best of the National Farm Machinery The host concludes the product tour at the DewEze booth, featuring their truck-bed bale unroller. A representative, Cameron, explains that the system is beneficial for regenerative farming by allowing hay to be unrolled for cows, spreading the seed bank and carbon across the land. The unroller features a 'spinner' that reaches out, picks up a hay bale of various sizes (e.g., 4x5, 5x5), and unrolls it directly from the truck bed. While it picks up large round bales, it does not unroll square bales. The system is designed to fit 3/4-ton and up Ford, Chevy, or Dodge trucks (single or dual wheel configurations). It is an entire bed replacement, often including a fifth-wheel setup. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cefjwhzN84E 90 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/look-what-i-found-best-of-the-national-farm-machinery-show-2024-v14605873/conclusion-and-outro-c3736229 2026-10-22T22:18:27.387Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cefjwhzN84E/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion and Outro — Look what I found!

Burned on this deal? Lessons learned best ATV f The reviewer provides an in-depth look at the 2017 red Honda Foreman 500 ES. He demonstrates the easy access for checking oil by opening a small plastic cover on the side, noting that he records oil change details and oil capacity directly on the cover for convenience. He prefers this model for its electronic shift with up and down buttons on the handlebar, combined with a floor shifter option. He explains the reverse engagement mechanism and the function of the emergency brake lock, pointing out that certain plastic parts (like the brake lock) are prone to wear and recommends keeping spares. The seat is described as smaller than the Rubicon models. He mentions upgrading to Wanda tires (after the original set wore out) and praises their performance, advising to keep tire pressure low for a smoother ride. The plastic body is noted as being 'red through and through,' meaning scratches don't reveal a different color underneath, unlike painted plastics. He shows the battery compartment under the seat and discusses the Kolpin Rack system, highlighting issues with sharp bolts that can tear clothing and the Rhino Grips breaking easily from hitting trees. He also demonstrates a 'Sawha' weed spade carried on the rack and the fuel tank location. The machine has over 1700 miles and 361 hours, showing a slight 'smoke issue' which he monitors. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZkYldq31pwQ 369 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/atv-buyer-beware-burned-on-this-deal-lessons-learned-best-atv-v14605880/review-2022-honda-rubicon-520-dct-blue-c3946823 2026-10-24T03:32:45.859Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ZkYldq31pwQ/hqdefault.jpg Review 2022 Honda Rubicon 520 DCT (Blue) — ATV Buyer Beware! Burned on this deal? Lessons learned be The review moves to the blue 2022 Honda Rubicon 520 DCT. This model features a Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) that allows for automatic or manual shifting via handlebar buttons, providing versatility. The presenter points out a 12-volt accessory outlet and describes the seat as more plush than the Foreman's, though he notes it tore easily (requiring replacement) due to less durable material. He demonstrates the improved placement of the Rhino Grips on this ATV, allowing for tools to be laid across without interfering with riding. He also details his Titan Rack system with an attached ATV Spreader, which is used for grass seed. He expresses disappointment with the Titan Rack's durability, noting it broke despite being advertised to hold significant weight, and that the spreader, with only 25 lbs of seed, caused further issues. He shows the internal battery compartment and wiring for the spreader. The front basket design is criticized for restricting the high beam headlight. He notes the machine was purchased used with low hours (57 hours, 268 miles) and advises caution when buying low-hour used ATVs. He demonstrates the automatic and manual shifting modes and discusses the importance of parking the ATV in gear with diff-lock engaged for security, or in neutral if in a garage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZkYldq31pwQ 254 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/atv-buyer-beware-burned-on-this-deal-lessons-learned-best-atv-v14605880/review-2023-honda-rubicon-520-dct-camo-c3946827 2026-10-24T03:32:45.859Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ZkYldq31pwQ/hqdefault.jpg Review 2023 Honda Rubicon 520 DCT (Camo) — ATV Buyer Beware! Burned on this deal? Lessons learned be The final ATV reviewed is the camouflage 2023 Honda Rubicon 520 DCT, which the presenter calls the 'prettiest one' and the 'Cadillac of the farm.' He notes it has a more appealing wheel style compared to the 'plain Jane' wheels on other models, and advises buyers to 'get the nice stuff.' The camouflage plastic is emphasized as being 'not blue through and through' (or whatever base color), indicating it's a painted surface that will show wear more easily than solid-colored plastics, as evidenced by wear marks from feet. This model also features independent suspension on all four wheels, in contrast to the solid axle on the Foreman, which he states is not a 'game-changer' for his utility needs. He highlights the ease of maintenance and cleanliness of this machine. He notes that the toolkit and battery strap are missing from this used purchase, inferring a previous owner might have been less meticulous. The overall consensus is that while this model is more refined, its core utility is similar to the other Hondas. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZkYldq31pwQ 150 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-contractors-made-a-big-mistake-for-melets-get-muddy-and-fix-it-v14605881 2026-10-24T03:30:29.329Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hexu2bgXE0k/hqdefault.jpg The Contractors Made a Big Mistake for me....Let's get MUDDY and Fix It!

The vlogger further elaborates on the septic system permit issues. He describes having cleared two areas on his property for a septic field. One area, a grassy spot, failed the 'perk test' because, according to the inspector, cows had recently been in the area and compacted the soil. Instead, the inspector approved a forested area (containing 35-50 year old oak trees), mandating that these trees be removed for the septic system. The vlogger views this as illogical, as tree roots seek water and would likely damage the system, besides the environmental impact of cutting down mature trees.

The farmer initially experimented with cutting hay, investing thousands of dollars in fertilizer, lime, grass seed, and hay-cutting equipment (tractor, mower, rake). However, he quickly learned that producing hay on a small scale was not profitable. The video shows a John Deere tractor (possibly a 5075E model) pulling a hay mower and a hay rake across fields, cutting and windrowing hay.

He learned that goats were not a suitable first animal for his farm. He then transitioned to Angus cattle, emphasizing their hardiness and suitability for grazing. The core of his strategy shifted to a direct-to-consumer sales model for beef, selling directly from the farm instead of through wholesale markets. This allows him to capture more value from his product, which is grass-fed and raised without unnecessary medications or steroids (animals are only treated if sick). This rotational grazing model ensures cows are always on fresh pasture, moving them regularly to prevent grazing next to their manure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/0JcsRlmLJWk 46 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/get-inspired-today-8-years-of-farm-building-progressknowledge-in-18-v14605885/conclusion-and-future-outlook-c3945650 2026-10-24T03:30:56.702Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/0JcsRlmLJWk/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion and Future Outlook — Get Inspired Today: 8 Years of Farm Building Progress/Knowledge in 1 The farmer concludes his 8-year journey of building a farm, emphasizing that the entire endeavor was centered around creating a regenerative, self-sustaining ecosystem where various species (livestock, wildlife, and flora) support each other.

Oil is everywhere! The video begins with an overview of a typical day on the farm, featuring a brief interaction with the resident cattle. The creator outlines the primary tasks for the day: the routine chore of feeding the cows, addressing a significant oil leak discovered on his 1988 Toyota pickup truck (affectionately nicknamed the 'Yotacorn'), and carrying out some necessary improvements on the large metal workshop building, referred to as the 'Mega Shop'. He mentions the daily requirement of feeding three round bales of hay to a herd of 50 cows, underscoring the ongoing time and financial commitment involved in livestock management. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 81 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/prepare-for-hay-feeding-and-manage-dog-interaction-c3946295 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Prepare for Hay Feeding and Manage Dog Interaction — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oi The creator prepares for the hay feeding task by attempting to start his Honda Rubicon ATV. After an initial failure, possibly due to battery issues, the ATV successfully starts. His dog, Buddy, eager to join, approaches. The creator then explains why he typically restricts his dog's presence around the cattle. He clarifies that cows, especially those with calves, perceive dogs, coyotes, and other small predators as threats, which can provoke aggressive behavior from the herd. To prevent any harm to Buddy, he instructs the dog to remain by the ATV. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 123 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/distribute-hay-bales-to-cattle-c3946297 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Distribute Hay Bales to Cattle — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oil is everywhere! Using a Solectrac electric tractor equipped with a Tarter front loader, the creator transports large round hay bales across the uneven pasture. A crucial part of this process is removing the sisal twine that binds each hay bale. He carefully pulls off the twine, explaining that ingesting it can be harmful to the cows. He mentions that the sisal twine is less problematic than nylon twine, but still advises removal. This action is part of the farm's regenerative farming practices, where unconsumed hay and manure contribute to soil enrichment, eliminating the need for commercial fertilizers. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 201 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/assess-cattle-condition-and-discuss-pasture-management-c3946298 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Assess Cattle Condition and Discuss Pasture Management — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup? After distributing the hay, the creator performs a quick health assessment of his cattle. He observes various animals, checking their weight and overall condition, identifying a few young heifers and cows. He differentiates between a 'heifer' (a young, unbred female) and a 'cow' (a female that has calved). He points out one cow, Suzy, who appears thinner than desirable despite having access to the same food as the others. This indicates she might be a candidate for culling if her condition doesn't improve. He also introduces Tammy, the farm's guard donkey, explaining her role in protecting young calves from predators like coyotes. The scene concludes with an explanation of the farm's rotational grazing strategy, emphasizing 'move and mob' and 'bale grazing' during winter to promote soil health by distributing manure and allowing hay to decompose. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 156 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/diagnose-oil-leak-on-toyota-pickup-c3946299 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Diagnose Oil Leak on Toyota Pickup — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oil is everywhere! Upon entering his large metal workshop, the 'Mega Shop', the creator immediately turns his attention to a persistent oil leak on his 1988 Toyota pickup truck, known as the 'Yotacorn'. He drives the truck onto a four-post lift (a Tuxedo Lift from Northern Tool and Equipment) to gain better access to the vehicle's underside. A significant puddle of oil is visible on the lift's platform, indicating a substantial leak. Before attempting to fix the leak, he checks the engine oil level using the dipstick, confirming it is full, likely from a recent oil change. He briefly starts the engine to circulate the oil, after which he will perform a more detailed inspection. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 337 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/repair-oil-leak-and-clean-spillage-c3946300 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Repair Oil Leak and Clean Spillage — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oil is everywhere! After inspecting the underside of the Toyota pickup truck with a Milwaukee work light, the creator identifies the source of the oil leak: the engine's oil drain plug. It appears to be leaking because a crush washer was missing or improperly installed during the last oil change. He attempts to tighten the drain plug with a 14mm wrench. Following this, he retrieves absorbent oil mats, which he buys on Amazon, and uses them to quickly and effectively clean up the spilled oil from the concrete floor. He demonstrates how the mats absorb the oil without leaving residue, preventing slipping hazards. He also emphasizes the importance of disposing of oil-soaked materials in a proper oily rag bin to prevent spontaneous combustion. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 206 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/install-extended-downspouts-c3946301 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Install Extended Downspouts — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oil is everywhere! The final DIY task involves installing extended downspouts on the 'Mega Shop' building. The existing downspouts are too high due to a newly poured concrete pad, leading to improper drainage. The creator uses a Milwaukee M18 oscillating multi-tool to precisely cut the downspout extensions to the required length. To ensure a snug fit, he then uses a crimping tool to create a dimpled edge on the top end of each extension, allowing it to slide into the existing downspout. For protection, he places a piece of scrap sheet metal behind the downspout while cutting to prevent damage to the building's siding. Finally, he uses a Milwaukee drill to secure the extensions in place with screws. This process is repeated for all four downspouts on the building. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 263 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-happened-to-the-unicorn-toyota-pickup-oil-is-everywhere-v14605886/project-conclusion-and-bloopers-c3946309 2026-10-24T03:32:06.779Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/75KkbZqdg1Q/hqdefault.jpg Project Conclusion and Bloopers — What happened to the Unicorn Toyota Pickup?? Oil is everywhere! The video concludes with a summary of the day's accomplishments. The downspouts have been successfully installed, and the oil leak on the Toyota pickup has been addressed (though the creator humorously notes it was a more involved fix than expected, learning that he shouldn't have used a crush washer on that particular drain plug). The cattle have been fed, and the farm is prepared for an upcoming cold night. Following the summary, a blooper reel is presented, showcasing humorous outtakes and minor mishaps from the day's filming, adding a lighthearted end to the video. https://www.youtube.com/embed/75KkbZqdg1Q 115 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-first-thing-you-should-think-about-when-buying-property-or-a-farm-v14605887 2026-10-24T03:29:03.642Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/D1OwfNREABY/hqdefault.jpg The first thing you should think about when buying property or a farm!

It's important to have an easy way to disconnect power to the energizer for safety and maintenance. To achieve this, cut the red (positive) power wire that runs from the battery to the energizer. Strip a small section of insulation from both ends of the cut wire. Crimp a blue heat-shrink spade connector onto each exposed wire end. Then, attach these spade connectors to the terminals of a toggle switch (which will serve as a physical disconnect). Connect the toggle switch into the main power line. Once the switch is assembled, drill a small hole in the storage box and mount the toggle switch on the exterior of the box. Use a small wrench to tighten the switch's nut. This allows for quick and easy disconnection of power to the energizer without opening the box. The blue color of the connectors typically indicates a wire gauge of 16-14 AWG. https://www.youtube.com/embed/WMflKYCe5c4 165 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/the-cows-are-destroying-the-fencesso-im-building-this-v14605893/extend-solar-panel-wires-and-connect-to-energizer-c3946330 2026-10-24T03:32:07.597Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WMflKYCe5c4/hqdefault.jpg Extend Solar Panel Wires and Connect to Energizer — The cows are destroying the fences...so I'm buil The solar panel comes with relatively short power leads. To ensure proper connection to the energizer inside the box, the leads need to be extended. Cut the red and black wires from the solar panel leads. Using heat-shrink terminal connectors (blue for positive, possibly black for negative, or just two blue for continuity), splice in additional lengths of red and black wire to extend the leads. Ensure each splice is securely crimped and then sealed with a heat gun to create a waterproof connection. Next, drill a hole in the back of the storage box for the extended solar panel wires. Insert a rubber grommet into this hole to protect the wires and prevent water intrusion. Pass the extended solar panel wires through the grommet and connect them to the appropriate terminals on the energizer (red to solar positive, black to solar negative).

Food is first frozen to -40 degrees (Fahrenheit/Celsius, as -40 is the same point on both scales). Once frozen, a vacuum pump is activated, creating a vacuum inside the chamber. The frozen water (ice) in the food then undergoes sublimation, directly turning from a solid into water vapor without passing through a liquid state. This vapor is then frozen onto cold coils on the chamber walls, effectively removing moisture from the food while preserving its nutrients and structure. The machine is computer-controlled, can connect to Wi-Fi, and sends alerts to a phone app. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gc7zgnPx7N8 160 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-much-does-it-cost-to-freeze-dry-food-at-home-v14605895/exploring-internal-components-and-design-features-c3944823 2026-10-24T03:29:36.410Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gc7zgnPx7N8/hqdefault.jpg Exploring Internal Components and Design Features — How much does it cost to freeze dry food at home The hosts demonstrate the internal components of the freeze dryer, specifically the food trays and the robust, round chamber designed for vacuum integrity. They show how the trays, lined with a blue silicone pad to prevent sticking, are inserted into the machine. A wire rack is also shown, which allows for double-stacking thinner items like apple chips to maximize capacity. The machine is designed and assembled in Utah, with some German-engineered components, ensuring high quality and durability. The transparent acrylic door provides visibility during the process and is designed for a perfect seal, which is crucial for maintaining the vacuum. The door should be left ajar when not in use to allow air circulation and prevent mold or mildew, similar to a front-loading washing machine. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gc7zgnPx7N8 180 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-much-does-it-cost-to-freeze-dry-food-at-home-v14605895/cycle-time-cost-and-advanced-storage-options-c3944825 2026-10-24T03:29:36.410Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gc7zgnPx7N8/hqdefault.jpg Cycle Time, Cost, and Advanced Storage Options — How much does it cost to freeze dry food at home? The hosts explain that a typical freeze-drying cycle takes about 24 hours and costs approximately $1.75 to $2.00 in electricity, depending on current rates. This process transforms perishable food into a shelf-stable state that will not rot for 25 years. Beyond freeze-drying, the machine can also vacuum seal Mason jars. This is achieved by placing jars with moderately snug lids onto a special rack inside the chamber. The vacuum process creates an airtight seal on the jars, extending the shelf life of the contents. It's important to note that this process seals the jars but does not sterilize them like pressure canning. For maximum shelf life of freeze-dried foods in Mylar bags, combining them with oxygen absorber packets is recommended, as both moisture and oxygen contribute to spoilage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/gc7zgnPx7N8 180 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/how-much-does-it-cost-to-freeze-dry-food-at-home-v14605895/what-can-and-cannot-be-freezedried-cost-and-warranty-c3944829 2026-10-24T03:29:36.410Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gc7zgnPx7N8/hqdefault.jpg What Can and Cannot Be Freeze-Dried, Cost, and Warranty — How much does it cost to freeze dry food a The hosts conclude by highlighting the versatility of the freeze dryer. Almost any food can be freeze-dried, with exceptions being high-oil content items like peanut butter, syrups, and honey, as these do not contain enough water for the sublimation process to be effective. Nuts can be freeze-dried, but since they are already low in water and high in fat, the process yields little change. The machine offers peace of mind by allowing users to prepare and store their own custom meals, ensuring control over ingredients and avoiding unwanted additives. The Prep4Life freeze dryer costs approximately $5,000 in 2023, comes with a 1-year full warranty, and a 2nd and 3rd year warranty on the sealed refrigeration system.

The water is then delivered to frost-free water systems via nearly three miles of underground water lines. The cattle drink around 24 gallons of water per day, and this water, once processed by the animals, returns to the ground as urine and manure, feeding the land. He highlights that this process filters the water through the land, returning it to the aquifer and well system, thereby completing a natural water cycle. This is contrasted with urban water consumption and sewage systems. https://www.youtube.com/embed/5ItuSVxNN6Q 251 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/are-cattle-or-livestock-really-harming-our-earthor-is-it-bad-farming-v14605897/conclusion-support-local-regenerative-farming-c3946025 2026-10-24T03:31:47.494Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5ItuSVxNN6Q/hqdefault.jpg Conclusion: Support Local, Regenerative Farming — Are cattle or livestock really harming our earth.. Josh concludes by reiterating that the real problem is the demand for 'cheap food' in America, which comes at a high environmental cost due to industrial farming practices like row cropping, glyphosate use, GMOs, and extensive transportation. He advocates for supporting local, grass-fed, pastured, regenerative beef farmers to reduce environmental impact. He emphasizes that on his farm, no fuel or electricity is consumed for the cattle's feed or water, as everything is part of a natural, cyclical system that heals the land. He invites viewers to post comments with their thoughts, especially if they are vegan or vegetarian, to engage in a discussion about these numbers. https://www.youtube.com/embed/5ItuSVxNN6Q 216 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/working-up-the-land-after-a-huge-firestart-to-finish-youll-love-this-v14605898 2026-10-24T03:31:50.674Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zbzVc5KCRig/hqdefault.jpg Working up the land after a huge fire...start to finish you'll love this!

He expected a call the following Monday. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cKFPcmuOdqU 143 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-ford-is-failing-and-ill-never-buy-another-one-share-your-stories-v14605909/diagnosis-of-multiple-system-failures-c3945581 2026-10-24T03:30:40.694Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cKFPcmuOdqU/hqdefault.jpg Diagnosis of Multiple System Failures — Why Ford Is Failing And I'll Never Buy Another One - Share Y After dropping off the truck, Josh didn't receive the expected call from the dealership. He called them back that Thursday and was informed that they hadn't been able to inspect his vehicle yet due to a lack of available lifts. He expressed understanding for the two to three week delay but soon discovered more extensive issues during a subsequent check. The mechanics identified problems with the electronic steering box, which produced a humming noise, confirming a recurring cam phaser rattling issue. The 10-speed automatic transmission was also found to be shifting harshly, particularly between 4th and 5th gear. This transmission issue was attributed to a faulty Transmission Control Module (TCM) that continually "re-learns" driving habits, requiring frequent resets from the dealership. Additionally, the rear leaf springs were found to be faulty and required replacement. Josh notes that the leaf springs were not part of the initial service request, highlighting further deterioration of the vehicle. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cKFPcmuOdqU 201 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-ford-is-failing-and-ill-never-buy-another-one-share-your-stories-v14605909/extended-warranty-denial-and-sunroof-diy-c3945582 2026-10-24T03:30:40.694Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cKFPcmuOdqU/hqdefault.jpg Extended Warranty Denial and Sunroof DIY — Why Ford Is Failing And I'll Never Buy Another One - Shar After five weeks of his truck being at the dealership, Josh contacted Ford Motor Company directly to file a formal complaint. A Ford representative, Vince, left a voicemail apologizing for not connecting directly and explaining that the previously offered extended service plan could not be added because an active extended plan was already associated with the vehicle's VIN. Ford's policy, as explained, prevented adding a new plan or increasing the timeframe of an existing one. However, Vince stated that once current repairs were completed, they could move forward with a "limited maintenance plan." This policy meant Josh would be denied an extended warranty for his truck. Separately, the video shows Josh performing a DIY repair on the sunroof, manually disassembling components to fix issues not covered or addressed by the dealership, using basic tools like a screwdriver. This task represents his personal effort to address vehicle issues outside of formal Ford service. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cKFPcmuOdqU 323 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/why-ford-is-failing-and-ill-never-buy-another-one-share-your-stories-v14605909/unresolved-issues-parts-delays-and-final-disillusionment-c3945584 2026-10-24T03:30:40.694Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cKFPcmuOdqU/hqdefault.jpg Unresolved Issues, Parts Delays, and Final Disillusionment — Why Ford Is Failing And I'll Never Buy The truck remained at the dealership for over nine weeks. Josh was informed that the leaf springs, which required replacement, were not part of the initial work order. The parts for this repair were expected to arrive on December 11th (approximately three weeks from the video's recording date around Thanksgiving 2023). Throughout this period, Ford continued to refuse a loaner truck, only offering $60 per day for a rental, which Josh stated was insufficient to cover the actual cost of a pickup truck rental. Upon further inspection, it was revealed that the cam phasers issue had caused severe damage, leading to the engine's camshafts being "completely trashed" down to "bare metal" due to oil starvation. Josh expresses his disillusionment, stating that this experience has caused him to lose all trust in Ford Motor Company. He criticizes Ford for its reliance on external contractors for parts, leading to supply chain issues and long delays, and suggests that this amounts to "planned obsolescence." He vows never to buy a new Ford product again and encourages other consumers to file formal complaints about similar issues. https://www.youtube.com/embed/cKFPcmuOdqU 405 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/diesel-shop-heater-that-will-blow-your-mind-heats-my-huge-shop-in-v14605910 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nYaHui-JJ9s/hqdefault.jpg Diesel shop heater that will blow your mind!!

After spreading the fescue seeds, the cattle are moved into a new paddock using the electric poly-fence. The fence is unhooked to allow the cows to pass through to the next grazing area. The herd consists of 49 cows and a donkey. Once the cattle have moved, the farmer prepares to unroll a hay bale using the Greg Judy Bale Unroller, first removing the net wrap from the bale with a sharp knife. This low-impact method is preferred over heavy machinery, which can compact the soil. The hay bales are stored directly in the pasture to reduce fuel use and time for transportation. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ImMMSZuk6ZE 335 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/chemical-free-winter-pasture-management-ideas-that-work-v14605911/postgrazing-soil-regeneration-c3946543 2026-10-24T03:32:21.203Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ImMMSZuk6ZE/hqdefault.jpg Post-Grazing Soil Regeneration — Chemical free winter pasture management ideas that work! After the hay bale is unrolled, a fine layer of hay remains on the ground, serving as a blanket for the soil. This blanket helps hold moisture and heat, crucial for seed germination. The cattle's hooves then push the seeds into the ground, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact. This process, combined with the manure left behind, significantly improves soil health and contributes to a regenerative cycle. The paddock is then left to rest for approximately 45 days before the cattle return, allowing the grass to recover and thrive. https://www.youtube.com/embed/ImMMSZuk6ZE 248 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/whats-inside-this-creepy-abandoned-haunted-farm-house-lets-explore-v14605912 2026-10-24T04:48:35.613Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Y2sFAhkdkgs/hqdefault.jpg What's inside this Creepy Abandoned Haunted Farm House?

This project outlines a regenerative farming approach to improve poor soil quality and promote grass growth without the use of chemical fertilizers. The core methods involve strategic 'bale grazing' and 'unrolling hay' for cattle, which naturally enriches the soil with biomass and manure. The process also includes managing 'weeds' as indicators of soil health and utilizing a drag harrow to distribute nutrients effectively. This long-term strategy aims to transform degraded pastures into lush, productive land while minimizing external costs. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Zo7sx12Ga3g 923 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-cattle-what-is-bale-grazing-vs-unrolling-hay-is-it-better-for-v14605920/assess-current-land-condition-c3945625 2026-10-24T03:30:56.701Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Zo7sx12Ga3g/hqdefault.jpg Assess Current Land Condition — Raising Cattle: What is Bale Grazing v/s Unrolling hay, is it better Begin by assessing the current state of your land, particularly focusing on areas with poor soil quality.

For bale grazing, simply place whole round bales in strategic locations across the pasture. Cattle will eat a portion, trample another portion into the ground, and leave the remainder to decompose, creating concentrated patches of nutrients and new growth. For unrolling hay, use a specialized unroller attachment pulled by an ATV or UTV to spread hay in long lines, allowing for a more dispersed distribution of biomass and manure. This method is particularly effective for large areas or when aiming for more uniform coverage. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Zo7sx12Ga3g 16 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/raising-cattle-what-is-bale-grazing-vs-unrolling-hay-is-it-better-for-v14605920/spread-biomass-with-drag-harrow-c3945637 2026-10-24T03:30:56.701Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Zo7sx12Ga3g/hqdefault.jpg Spread Biomass with Drag Harrow — Raising Cattle: What is Bale Grazing v/s Unrolling hay, is it bett After cattle have grazed and left residual hay and manure, use a drag harrow to evenly spread the organic matter across the pasture.

The farm operates on an 'intensive grazing program' with the goal of regenerating the soil. This involves allowing cattle to consume about one-third of the grass, trample another third, and leave one-third before moving them to the next paddock. This prevents overgrazing and allows the pasture to recover fully over approximately 45 days. The farm aims to establish 90 separate paddocks for this system. The cattle's manure ('butt fertilizer') helps add carbon to the soil, which improves water retention, fixes nitrogen, and ultimately reduces the need for synthetic fertilizers. This farm has not used commercial fertilizer for 7-8 years. The practice aims for 'low input with maximum output'. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fZlb2yvEALY 111 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-nobody-is-telling-you-about-starting-your-own-farm-stress-v14605934/select-cattle-and-manage-health-regeneratively-c3946097 2026-10-24T03:31:50.834Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fZlb2yvEALY/hqdefault.jpg Select Cattle and Manage Health Regeneratively — What Nobody is Telling You about Starting Your Own Select cattle genetics suitable for a grass-fed system and implement a health management approach that minimizes external inputs. The farm uses Black Angus cattle, specifically bred to thrive on grass without the need for dewormers or routine medication. The philosophy is to 'medicate the sick, not the well,' meaning animals are only treated if they fall ill, avoiding prophylactic treatments common in conventional feedlot operations.

This involves building a local customer base by reaching out to neighbors and distributing flyers. The long-term goal for a small, first-generation family farm is to restore community connections through local food systems, reminiscent of how food was sourced before the rise of supermarkets in the early 1900s. While building a farm from scratch is extremely expensive (the speaker's 150-acre farm cost around $600,000 before selling any beef), focusing on local sales and community ties is crucial for long-term success. https://www.youtube.com/embed/fZlb2yvEALY 268 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/sick-of-the-rat-race-buy-land-farm-homestead-heres-the-reality-v14605935 2026-10-24T03:30:29.595Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/-InkNMRHR5Q/hqdefault.jpg Sick of the RAT RACE?

How to make Delicious Smokey Beef Barley Vegetable After filling the jars with stew and ensuring proper headspace, use a magnetic stick to retrieve the warm canning lids from the small pot and place them centered on each jar. Screw the canning rings onto the jars, tightening them "Grandma tight"—snug but not excessively tight. This allows air to escape during processing. Carefully place the sealed jars into a pressure canner filled with warm water. Close the pressure canner, ensuring it's properly sealed, and process the stew for 90 minutes at 10 to 11 pounds of pressure. Once the processing is complete, allow the pressure canner to cool naturally until the safety button drops. Open the canner, carefully remove the hot jars, and use a moist rag to wipe down each jar and tighten the lids if needed (though it should only be a 'Grandma tight' seal). Let the jars sit on the counter undisturbed for 2-3 hours to cool and fully seal. For best practice, monitor the jars for approximately 10 days to confirm they have a good, secure seal before storing. https://www.youtube.com/embed/jcqFV-arT2w 126 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/coolest-upgrade-to-any-gate-ive-ever-seen-shorts-tooltuesday-farming-v14605948 2026-10-22T22:06:24.501Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/j8KRsusoNwc/hqdefault.jpg Coolest Upgrade to any Gate I've ever seen!! #shorts #tooltuesday #farming This video demonstrates the installation and use of a 'Stay-Gate' device, which acts as a manual ground pin to stabilize farm gates.

A large Golden Amber heirloom tomato is shown as an example for the demonstration. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HeQYHLvxcEc 28 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secrets-of-the-tomato-gardening-tips-for-amazing-tomatoes-v14605952/prepare-tools-for-extraction-c3797617 2026-10-23T00:12:01.884Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HeQYHLvxcEc/hqdefault.jpg Prepare Tools for Extraction — Secrets Of The Tomato: Gardening Tips For Amazing Tomatoes! Gather the necessary kitchen tools for seed extraction. The presenter shows two types of strainers: one with very fine mesh and another with a coarser mesh. It is important to use a strainer with mesh holes large enough to allow the pulpy juice to pass through, but small enough to retain the seeds. A pot or bowl is also needed to sit the strainer in, which will catch the pulp and water during the washing process. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HeQYHLvxcEc 69 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secrets-of-the-tomato-gardening-tips-for-amazing-tomatoes-v14605952/extract-and-wash-seeds-c3797628 2026-10-23T00:12:01.884Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HeQYHLvxcEc/hqdefault.jpg Extract and Wash Seeds — Secrets Of The Tomato: Gardening Tips For Amazing Tomatoes! Place the chosen strainer inside the pot in one of your kitchen sinks. Take the tomato and carefully cut it in half using a knife. Squeeze each half of the tomato over the strainer, allowing the seeds and watery pulp to fall through the mesh into the pot. Once most of the seeds are extracted, turn on cold running water over the seeds in the strainer. Gently scrub the seeds with your fingers, rinsing away any remaining pulp, juice, or gel-like coating until the seeds are clean and free of debris. The remaining tomato flesh can be discarded or used for other purposes, like feeding to animals. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HeQYHLvxcEc 95 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secrets-of-the-tomato-gardening-tips-for-amazing-tomatoes-v14605952/dry-seeds-c3797632 2026-10-23T00:12:01.884Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HeQYHLvxcEc/hqdefault.jpg Dry Seeds — Secrets Of The Tomato: Gardening Tips For Amazing Tomatoes! After rinsing, gently shake the strainer to remove as much excess water as possible from the seeds. Next, take a piece of a paper bag (which has been previously cut and labeled with the tomato variety, e.g., 'Golden Amber'). Flip the strainer over the paper bag and gently tap it to release the clean seeds onto the paper. Spread the seeds out evenly with your fingers to ensure good airflow. Some seeds may appear black; these are likely non-viable and can be discarded later. Allow the seeds to air dry completely on the countertop for about a day to a day and a half. The paper bag absorbs moisture and the seeds will adhere to it as they dry. https://www.youtube.com/embed/HeQYHLvxcEc 56 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/secrets-of-the-tomato-gardening-tips-for-amazing-tomatoes-v14605952/store-seeds-c3797638 2026-10-23T00:12:01.884Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HeQYHLvxcEc/hqdefault.jpg Store Seeds — Secrets Of The Tomato: Gardening Tips For Amazing Tomatoes!

These bents consist of vertical posts and curved braces. The connections are made using traditional mortise and tenon joinery, where a 'tenon' (a shaped projection) fits into a 'mortise' (a cutout pocket) in an adjacent timber. These joints are then secured by driving oak wooden pegs through pre-drilled holes, locking the components together without the need for metal fasteners. Ratchet straps are used to temporarily hold pieces in alignment during assembly. This step is repeated for all structural bents required for the porch. https://www.youtube.com/embed/znK_uAC5KtA 9 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dream-barndominium-timber-frame-front-porch-build-start-to-finish-v14605953/install-metal-post-bases-on-concrete-piers-c3946689 2026-10-24T03:32:36.124Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/znK_uAC5KtA/hqdefault.jpg Install Metal Post Bases on Concrete Piers — Dream Barndominium Timber Frame Front Porch Build, star Pre-poured concrete piers form the base for the timber posts. These piers include embedded metal post bases designed to securely attach the timber uprights. For this project, a Simpson Strong-Tie post base is used, which involves securing the base to the concrete pier with specialized lag screws (e.g., 'Titen Turbo' screws) and an additional washer. Two pilot holes are drilled into the concrete, and the lag screws are driven in with an impact driver to snug the base into place. Once aligned, the remaining fasteners can be tightened. The pier itself is constructed with a large foundation underneath, reinforced with rebar, and typically 8 inches thick to provide robust support and stability for the heavy timber frame. https://www.youtube.com/embed/znK_uAC5KtA 109 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/dream-barndominium-timber-frame-front-porch-build-start-to-finish-v14605953/lift-and-secure-timber-frame-bents-c3946693 2026-10-24T03:32:36.124Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/znK_uAC5KtA/hqdefault.jpg Lift and Secure Timber Frame Bents — Dream Barndominium Timber Frame Front Porch Build, start to fin Using a telehandler (a JLG 6036 is shown), the pre-assembled timber bents are carefully lifted from the ground. Slings or straps are attached to the bents at their balance points to ensure a stable lift. Multiple crew members guide the bent as the telehandler raises and maneuvers it into position over the concrete piers. The posts are lowered onto the metal post bases, and workers on ladders help align and secure the connections.

Simple Easy The Country Boy Way! Tomat Place the filled and sealed jars into the pressure canner, ensuring the water level in the canner is appropriate (slightly less than halfway up the jars). Close and lock the pressure canner lid securely. Turn the heat to high. Once the safety mechanism on the canner pops up and the weighted gauge (jiggler) starts to consistently "jiggle" (indicating it has reached the desired pressure, e.g., 5 lbs), turn the heat down to medium-high to maintain a steady jiggle. Set a timer for 10-12 minutes (for quart jars at 5 lbs pressure, refer to your canner's manual for specific times and pressures based on altitude and jar size). After the timed processing, turn off the heat and allow the canner to cool naturally. Do not try to force cool it. The safety mechanism will drop when pressure has fully released. Once it's safe, remove the jiggler, then carefully open the lid away from your face to avoid steam burns. https://www.youtube.com/embed/m8ZkKujt_do 161 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/learn-a-valuable-life-skill-today-simple-easy-the-country-boy-way-v14605954/cool-jars-and-store-c3944497 2026-10-24T03:29:12.827Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m8ZkKujt_do/hqdefault.jpg Cool Jars and Store — Learn a Valuable Life Skill today!

He explains that chanterelles are common across North America and are a delicious culinary treat, far superior to store-bought mushrooms. He then introduces two essential books: "Mushrooming with Confidence" and "Mushrooming Without Fear" by Alexander Schwab, which he recommends for learning proper mushroom identification. He emphasizes that the fear of poisonous mushrooms is the biggest deterrent for new foragers and that these books help overcome that fear by providing detailed information and pictures. He highlights that chanterelle mushrooms are typically egg-yolk yellow and discusses the importance of identifying their false gills (ridges) versus true gills, which is a key differentiator from poisonous look-alikes. He also advises against picking mushrooms smaller than 3 centimeters (approximately 1.2 inches) as they are not mature enough. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iTw_MbAe0oE 318 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/living-off-the-land-wild-mushroom-foraging-priceless-knowledge-v14605971/ethically-harvest-chanterelle-mushrooms-c3946302 2026-10-24T03:32:07.668Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iTw_MbAe0oE/hqdefault.jpg Ethically Harvest Chanterelle Mushrooms — Living Off the Land: Wild Mushroom Foraging Priceless Know The host leads the viewer into the forest, near a creek and an old roadbed, to demonstrate how to find and ethically harvest chanterelle mushrooms. He points out a few mushrooms and explains that if a mushroom looks unhealthy (dry, moldy, or rotting), it should be left alone. He stresses the importance of using a good knife, like his handmade custom bushcraft knife, to cut the mushroom stem at the base rather than plucking it. This method preserves the mycelium in the ground, ensuring the mushrooms will grow back in the same spot year after year. He also shows how to uncover smaller chanterelles hidden under leaf debris and points out young, immature chanterelles (shorter than 3 cm / 1.2 inches) that should be left to mature. He advises foragers not to take more than they can consume and highlights that chanterelles thrive in moist conditions, often near beech trees and compacted soil like old roadbeds, which suggests a symbiotic relationship with these trees and soil conditions. Collected mushrooms are placed in a paper bag. https://www.youtube.com/embed/iTw_MbAe0oE 374 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/living-off-the-land-wild-mushroom-foraging-priceless-knowledge-v14605971/clean-and-trim-chanterelle-mushrooms-c3946304 2026-10-24T03:32:07.668Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iTw_MbAe0oE/hqdefault.jpg Clean and Trim Chanterelle Mushrooms — Living Off the Land: Wild Mushroom Foraging Priceless Knowled The host returns to the kitchen with about half a paper bag full of chanterelle mushrooms.

This rotational grazing method prevents the cattle from grazing near their own manure, which in turn reduces the need for deworming or other medications and antibiotics. This practice is highlighted as a key component of maintaining healthy animals and promoting good pasture and land management. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykx-G-aLNMo 140 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-does-it-cost-to-have-a-whole-cow-butchered-v14605972/understanding-beef-processing-and-cut-sheet-options-c3946710 2026-10-24T03:32:37.211Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ykx-G-aLNMo/hqdefault.jpg Understanding Beef Processing and Cut Sheet Options — What Does It Cost To Have A Whole Cow Butchere The farmer presents a 'Beef Cut Sheet,' explaining that all beef intended for sale must be processed in a USDA-inspected facility. He reviews various initial cuts like brisket, ribs, skirt steak, and flank steak. For roasts, options include chuck, pot, sirloin tip, eye of round, and London broil. Steak options consist of T-bone, New York Strip, filet mignon, ribeye, sirloin, and cube steak (tenderized for texture). Other products such as stew beef, beef tips, hamburger (patties or ground), beef bratwurst links, beef chorizo, beef meatloaf, and Salisbury steak are also discussed. The cut sheet also allows for selecting offal (liver, tongue, oxtail, heart, kidney, testicles) and bones for broth. Processing is done by weight, and a private label for 'Stoney Ridge Farmer Beef' incurs an initial setup fee. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykx-G-aLNMo 317 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-does-it-cost-to-have-a-whole-cow-butchered-v14605972/calculating-beef-processing-costs-c3946711 2026-10-24T03:32:37.211Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ykx-G-aLNMo/hqdefault.jpg Calculating Beef Processing Costs — What Does It Cost To Have A Whole Cow Butchered? The farmer breaks down the costs involved in beef processing. For a cow with a 'hanging weight' (usable meat after non-consumable portions are removed) of 541 pounds, the processing cost is $1.15 per pound, totaling $622.15. This cost covers all cuts except for extra charges for special processing. Additionally, there's a harvest room fee of $90 for animals under 600 pounds or $100 for those between 601-900 pounds. Specialized products like beef chorizo, Salisbury steak, and meatloaf incur an extra $0.50 per pound, while beef bratwurst links cost an extra $1.05 per pound. Hamburger patties carry an extra $0.50 per pound fee to form them. The processing cost for a 671-pound cow, for example, would be $771.65. The one-time fee for a private label for the farm's beef was $300. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykx-G-aLNMo 150 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-does-it-cost-to-have-a-whole-cow-butchered-v14605972/comparing-grassfed-vs-grainfed-beef-production-c3946712 2026-10-24T03:32:37.211Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ykx-G-aLNMo/hqdefault.jpg Comparing Grass-Fed vs. Grain-Fed Beef Production — What Does It Cost To Have A Whole Cow Butchered? The farmer discusses the differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef. Grain-fed beef from feedlots typically takes 12-18 months (sometimes up to 18 months) to raise, often involving antibiotics in their feed to promote faster growth and steroids via implants to stimulate growth. In contrast, Stoney Ridge Farm's grass-fed and grass-finished beef takes longer, anywhere from 18 to 32 months (or even up to 32 months), because they rely on natural growth hormones by not castrating animals at birth. This approach results in animals with stronger natural immunity and no need for antibiotics or steroids. He highlights that grass-fed animals live in a cleaner, pasture-based environment, away from their own waste, preventing diseases like pneumonia common in crowded feedlots. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykx-G-aLNMo 210 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/what-does-it-cost-to-have-a-whole-cow-butchered-v14605972/optimizing-processing-time-and-farm-sustainability-c3946713 2026-10-24T03:32:37.211Z monthly 0.5 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ykx-G-aLNMo/hqdefault.jpg Optimizing Processing Time and Farm Sustainability — What Does It Cost To Have A Whole Cow Butchered The ideal time to butcher grass-fed beef is during the peak of grass quality, often during the spring flush, mid-summer, and fall. This ensures the best flavor and fat content. The farmer plans to increase processing to three times a year to align with these peak grass periods, making beef available more consistently. He also introduces the concept of multi-species grazing by incorporating mobile chicken coops (egg-mobiles) behind the cattle. The chickens scratch through the cattle manure, spreading it as fertilizer, eating worms and bugs, and in return, produce eggs. This symbiotic relationship enhances pasture health and adds another sustainable product (eggs) to the farm's offerings. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykx-G-aLNMo 136 no https://creeksideoutdoorliving.stesso.com/watch/tool-tuesday-most-convenient-way-to-haul-your-phone-on-any-vehicle-v14605973 2026-10-23T00:27:03.823Z monthly 0.6 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/EXbRfey3VZI/hqdefault.jpg Tool Tuesday: Most Convenient Way to "Haul" your phone on any Vehicle!
