I'm thinking about purchasing a post hole digger soon and I was wondering what size auger you all use? I don't need a 12 inch for sure. So I'm torn between a 6 inch or 9 inch. I usually buy the 4/5 x 8 post from Tractor Supply for my fence so I was really just wondering how well a 6 inch auger...

I bought some perennial peanut hay last weekend for my American Guinea Hogs and they love it. They ate a whole bale in one day. I had never seen it or heard of it before until last weekend. I started reading up on it a bit after I saw how much they like it. I'm curious if anyone on here grows...

What do you all use to kill weeds in your vegetable garden? I'm specifically looking for cheap methods. I can't afford a small tiller or cultivator right now. I've thought about laying some kind of mulch down between rows or spraying roundup down the rows. Don't want to kill my vegetables...

Ok well evidently the soil sample they emailed wasn't complete because I got the paper copy in the mail today. I took a picture of the information on it and I'll upload it. Hopefully it will be readable. It tells me to add zinc sulfate, sulfur or gypsum, 10-10-10, and lime. I'm not sure where to...

Ok farmers, I know ya'll are out there. Help me with the results of my soil sample. This is the first time I've ever had one and don't know much about it. I'm just looking at doing a vegetable garden with some tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, lettuce, broccoli, peppers, and things like that. Not...

I want to get one of the quick hitch systems. I have a Kodiak rotary mower I bought new a year or so ago. Pretty sure it's qh compatible because there's another hole on the float to change the hook up. I just bought a new Kodiak rear blade yesterday with the same setup so it should be compatible...

Sorry for the long post. I posted a few weeks ago about trying to buy a CK27 HST. I got denied for financing through Agri Credit. Tried to call them to find out why and got a rude lady on the phone and she wouldn't tell me anything. She said it was federal law that she couldn't discuss it over...

Anyone have any experience with Agmate finish mowers from Agi Supply? I'm thinking about getting one. I don't want to spend a lot of money on one. I've looked at used ones on craiglist and different places, but most of the ones I see they either still want over $1000 for or are junk or too far...

Well they finally delivered her this afternoon. Got to play around for about an hour or so.

Some of you may have read my other threads talking about getting a Kioti CK27. Well that didn't pan out. Couldn't get financing through agri credit for some reason. Anyway, I ran across a 2011 Kubota L3800 HST with fel with only 203 hours on it for $15,300. Great looking tractor. Filled out the...

What are the factory or dealer installed options that are available on the 3016 and 3616 besides, FEL, tires, one rear remote, and sunshade? Anyone that could provide cost for these options would be great to. Are telescopic links an option or is it that big a deal not having them?

I found this informative pdf file from LSU AgCenter Research and Extension online this morning while doing a search. I've just started reading through some of it, but I have found it has very good information in it and I thought it would be very helpful to a lot of people. Especially people like...

Although I'd really love to get a DK40, it's just not in my price range right now. I've been talking with my dealer about getting a CK35. I believe he said the price for the CK35 hst with FEL would be about $18400. Pretty sure that included 2 rear remotes I had asked for. Anyway he told me he...

Anyone have any experience with a Shaver HD-8 Post Driver or other brand post driver? We have red clay down here and South Georgia and I'm wondering how well it would work. I've put up a lot of fence around here and I'd love to get one if they work good.

We just got a breeding pair of Katahdin sheep a few weeks ago. Ours look like twins, but they're not.

Anyone else having problems accessing the finance section on their website? I was trying to look to see what offers they have going on, but everytime I click on the finance link it brings up an Internal Server Error page. I was trying to see if they still had the 0% for 84 month deal going on...

Most have probably read my thread on our goats being killed. We're considering a donkey to keep our livestock safe. I'm looking for everyone's inputs on raising a donkey. I know to get a Jenny. What do we need to look for when purchasing a donkey? How young or old? Health issues to look for...

I'm so pissed. Yesterday morning my wife gets up to go to work and walks out on the back deck and here's one of our goats hollering. It's still dark and she can't see anything. One of our goats was due to give birth any day so she thought it was giving birth. She comes in the bedroom and tells...

We just picked up a breeding pair of American Guinea Hogs today we're going to start raising. Can't wait until they are old enough to breed and have some piglets and get big enough to slaughter. Here's some pictures of them.

We will be getting a breeding pair of American Guinea Hogs in a few weeks. I was wondering if anyone on here has any or has ever raised them and could give me some tips and share your experiences with them. We're not looking to get rich off them or anything. Just to make a little extra cash on...

This just happened this past Monday. It happened just around the corner from my house. I didn't really know the man, but met him once when my house was being built. He stopped by to introduce himself. Very nice man. The article says he was pinned between the truck and a fence, but he was...

Does the CK30 have draft control? I've tried to research it, but can't seem to find it anywhere so I'm guessing it doesn't.

I have a 1963 Ford 4000 diesel and it got stuck in reverse over the weekend. I took the shift lever plate off to see if I could figure out how to get it unstuck. It's happened before and I have rocked it back and forth before and got it unstuck, but it didn't work this time. Anyway, the...

I wanted to get some opinions on the location of FEL control levers on tractors. I've looked at numerous different brands and I like several. The one thing on some of them that I keep thinking will bother me in the long run are the ones with the FEL control levers that are located up on the dash...

Asked for a quote from the local Kioti dealer in our area and he quoted $21,800 for a DK40SE HST with FEL. How does that sound? I believe this was a price for financing at 84 month as he said in the email: "a dk40se hst loader for 84 months is apx 315 or $21800".

Several threads have been started recently and a discussion had been started about the Gravely ZT HD and Ariens Max Zoom being the same mower except for paint color. Which was mainly stated by myself because that's what I had discovered researching the two a while back. Most of what I read was...

I stopped by my local Mahindra dealer on Friday and got a quote on a new 3016 HST with FEL. The price quote seems awful high to me going by some other prices I've seen in other threads so I thought I'd check on here and see what you'll thought. The dealer quoted me $20,150 for a 0% for 72 month...

Ok, I've been reading threads on here for a while now. And all though it will still be a while before I am able to purchase me a new tractor, a question keeps coming to my mind while I'm looking at different tractors. My question is about how important or how closely do I really need to be...

It's still going to be a while before I can purchase a new tractor, but I've been looking at the 3016 and I was wondering if it would be possible to use a 72" finishing mower with it. I'm also looking at the 3616, but I'm not sure if I will be able to fit that in my budget when I get ready to...

Well the wife talked me into purchasing some atvs. It's going to put my tractor purchase on hold for a while, but I figure we'll have more fun and get more use out of the atvs. The kids will enjoy them too. We've decided on the Polaris Sportsman 400 HO. Probably going to finalize the paperwork...

I have to confess. I am a little jealous of the people I see on here lately getting new tractors. I guess I need to quit reading about it because it's driving me crazy. :confused2: I want a new tractor so bad. Only problem is I can't afford it right now. Well, I can't afford the one I WANT. I...

I don't have any personal experience with it, but I did a lot of research on the same ZT from TSC last year. I decided to get a tractor instead of a ZT. From everything I could find they seem to be very good mowers. Most of the complaints I found were the tires slipping on hilly terrain. As long...

I haven't had the experience yet of buying a new tractor. My tractor I bought at an auction. As soon as I get a few more bills paid off I plan on buying a new tractor. Of course my only experience of buying anything new or even used through a dealer has been cars. I have plenty of experience...

I work for the government and we store just about everything you can think of for all branches of the military. Lots of tires. Attatched is a copy of the storage procedure we have to go by and a lot of our stuff sits in the warehouses for many years before being used. Look at page 5-79 section...
