Teeth on the bucket help a lot with picking up things (except gravel or soft stuff). A thumb on your yet to be ordered backhoe even more so.

A word of advice: Spend a LOT of time reading and heeding the safe operating advice on this site, the dos and don'ts and the horror stories. There are so many ways to trash yourself or your tractor if unaware, inexperienced or careless.

I’m undecided if I want the backhoe or not. I might try to find a used mini excavator down the road. But like I said I’m undecided. And yes I’ve seen some horrible things happen.

A mini excavator would be far superior to a back hoe, which is a pain to use in a lot of ways, "hopping" on and off to reposition the tractor. If digging's a need, and as soon as you get one you will find lots of need, a mini digger would be a much better and functional choice.

Yeah I figure I could find a used one even if it needed work and be better off then the backhoe.
