Doesn’t matter what he puts on the feeder they’ll set upon wrecking it from day one,it’s like the stevie wonder driving school…

When designing the shed they should have considered machinery access. Wonder if they should have got Grasstec in to design it for them.

Didn't the Keenan get a whack first day too?

Trouble is not everyone has the nouce to be a project manager, or look at a bigger picture. Stock people in particular often can't see the wood for the trees as it's to far out of their comfort zone. The amount of dairies I've seen squished in next to old ones is amazing. Even when we built ours 21 years ago , I had endless arguments with my old man about where it should be sighted. He wanted it squashed in behind our old one which not only hamstrings you before you turn the first sod, but also makes milking in the existing shed much more painful than it already is , as the cows have to contend with all matter of noise spooking them from the new build.

I really enjoyed the Claas factory videos, and the JCB tour as well, same when Lord Muck @Mucker4890 (Komatsu?) or Grassmen does a visit to a factory. That sort of stuff interests me.
It's pretty obvious it must be hard to keep a farming youtube channel going all year continuously, farming is fairly repetitive and once you've seen one jammed up grain bin you've seen them all.

All the big USA farming ones are doing stuff to try and keep things interesting, Welker Farms building a house, Larsons have something new every other day, Millennial Zac, had his new shed, and he's polishing trucks now, etc.
Must admit I watch too much YouTube, but my favorite channels are not agricultural, far prefer engineering, could watch Cutting Edge Engineeing in Australia all day!!
Cutting Edge Engineering is very good, just gone over 500,000 subscribers.
Farming Fixing and Fabricating is about the only farming channel I watch all the time. Andy and his kids are proper grafters.
