What happens to your Kubota when you go on vacation too long.

Had this gift in my tractor for father's day. I actual mowed grass for two hours without noticing it.

Built a bird house out of cinder blocks and put in the same location where the tractor was and moved the nest into it.

Hoping for the best.

Nice...

I'd only get field mice or a snake!

Ok, on my browser the title of this thread is "What happens to your Kubota when you go on". So, I thought the post was asking what are your plans for your tractor when you die!
Hadn't really given it a lot of thought to be honest!

I have around a dozen different types/styles of bird houses hanging around all my out buildings. No nests in my tractor nor have there ever been any evidence of mice in my tractor. The engine compartment/air filter compartment of my Jeep or F-150 - - now, that's a different story.

Yeah I gotta put up some bird houses. They build nests all over the place, in really inconvenient places and at the worst times.

Let us know if moving the nest works, or if they abandon that one and start over.

Yeah, I found these this spring, between top of PTO and seat

They look hungry

It's not looking great so far. The Mother is still hanging around, wife says she saw her in the adjacent cinder block hole today, but I haven't seen her on the nest. It was about 57 degrees last night and when I peeked at the nest at 3am I didn't see mom.

Glad that wasn't a rattle snake laying along side of your seat without you noticing.

I once found a robin nest on my goose neck trailer. As I needed my trailer the nest was moved to a nearby tree. I just took a bit of mud and glued the nest into place. There were baby's in it when I looked a few days later.
