As I am not a farmer, I am amazed at the things I learn on your videos. Thanks for doing all of the things you do, and the best of luck during the season...... Mississippi follower.
You live and learn Molly. As long as no one was hurt its all good.
isn't the first time and won't be the last
how could you get mad at that smile. i think thats what saved you molly. good deal,,
Molly, I have seen more heavy equipment stuck than you could imagine and I have seen a lot of foot stomping and cursing when it happened too. It can happen to anyone, and I love the cheerful positive attitude you carry with you everywhere. Not bad at all for a dental tech turned farmer/equipment operator! 😁😁
Well done all worked out.. First time your for given... Somebody wanted to see me get stuck LOL PS wanna see ya get stuck next time!! However.... A spanking may be in order next time!!!
i did not think it was going to go as good as it did.
Chain cables, and a lot of horse power
eh thats not bad i've done worse on a d9. but i'll give you a a for effort lol
People are under the assumption that “how can a tractor get stuck, they are huge and powerful?” Yes they are, and they are extremely heavy which is the reason most of the time. There’s a spot on the field we know about and try to get as close to it as we can without getting stuck but it still happens.
oooops ...I did it again
Wow that was stressing me out. It’s amazing those chains didn’t break thank god. Well good lesson learned for the future.😊
Oh No! My " Hot Potato" done got herself stuck! Lol! No harm done, No equipment damaged. Just a good story to tell another time!
Hi Molly you made an honest mistake that's all. Life happens !
Oh well, we know you weren’t home sippy your tea, wondering if it was time to start tillage. You didn’t mess up, consequences of getting an early crop in for the early higher price. My first shot would have been excavator low ground pressure and ability to lift up. The bright side is Shane almost got the feller stuck, only mention that because of how deceiving that ground was.
We had the local co-op spreading lime for us and before he started the boss took him on a tour of the field and showed him the one corner of the field to stay out of. The guy was bragging about how it would only take 20 minutes to sread the first load. So the boss was sitting in the loader waiting to refill him and it was taking longer than he said. The boss drove back to the field and there he was still fully loaded with about 15 tons of lime in the wet hole he was warned about. We broke about 5 chains before we gave up and called the boss's cousin that had a 620 quad. The best part was at the fair that fall the dealer that leased the tractors to the co-op got to see a picture of the John Deere tractor and spreader being pulled out by a Quad track. He asked me to email him the pictures.
Hellow Bells farming iså you in asmr video vill you have 3 rainjackets in your farm if you vill have from janne in nortköping if its raing out
I thought the hydro was going down for a minute. Good thing he backed out when he did. You really would have had to do some extensive editing I am afraid! LOL Definitely went better than I thought it would!
Had me laughing pretty hard Molly once I saw the tractor . Sweet video and Shane to the rescue!
When you get out of a ditch, you go and have a look at the hole you left. It is the law.
Ton of silt in the low spots where the drainage occurs, i like those massive tow straps, they have some give and aren't as catastrophic if they break, all good live to sub soil another day
Wow never saw anyone so excited to get unstuck! Lo.glad you got out.
Time to invest in yankum ropes. They are like gaint elastic ropes so you get the sling shot effect when pulling and alot safer than chains!
So I saw an open station ford tractor in your video. Is that for sale?
Probably not, but you never know I guess
This is my FAVORITE Bells Farms video!!!!!!
Wow! Guess still wet over there? It happens no worries molly..don't get frustrated..it's all good.
This girl could be the twin to a friend of mine. Looks, voice .. even the way she smiles and laughs!
You need a Yankam rope!! Great video showing what real world farming is like!
🥔👑I see 21K and if this rate continued you will reach 50K on June 1st 2025. However, I think it will be sooner than that since there is an exponential factor that will increase the growth rate and reduce the amount of time.
😂😂
Been there ! I almost thought Shane was going to get the hydro -ax buried for a minute. But came out pretty easy. good video
Molly Molly Molly lol you did a really great job of burying that in the mud lol didn't you know that it was that bad there??
Tractors these days are too heavy for the land. All they do is damage underground drains and soil strata. Bigger doesn't always mean better!!!
I'm a big fan of the Yankum ropes now. Back in the day the manure spreader wagon would get stuck, same time in spring, ground still wet and soggy. we'd unhook wagon and get tractor out on dry land, then hook chains together and drag it out. usually emptied manure first make it lighter. Been right were you are kiddo!
Well done lady, pity we don't have farmers in Ireland 🇮🇪 that look like you. I would be volunteering to help you every day 😂
I know someone who rolled a tractor over going thru a steep ditch so compared to that this is just a learning lesson. That is why they have those glass breaking hammers in tractors in Europe hanging in the cab.
Wow! You were sunk! Nice teamwork getting free from that mess! 👏🏼👍🏼
Who knew there was quicksand in Maine? The bright side is now you have some really cool chain in case you ever need it again.
You need a Yankum Rope! Kinetic energy! Chains are really old school.
Worked out good though. Using a Yankum you’d use the solid group in front of the tractor to make run with a tractor and some speed. Just me postulating…😂
We are pretty old school :)
You’ve found quicksand…
GOODMORNING😎...SHI* HAPPENS HAVE A GREAT DAY!👌
Thank you! Have a wonderful day too😁🌞
oups
Haha yes
You need to install that pin on the top link properly you’ll get yourself into a lot of trouble
I found that the next morning! Thank you
Nice job, you were well and truly stuck!
😁
An old boss told me "If you weren't fuckin up it means you weren't doin anything. If you make the same mistake twice it means you're dumb."
Haha very good!
Shane to the rescue-great teamwork 👍. Heavy equipment and soft ground …it happens.
Thank you 😊
Does Bell Farms also do some logging?
We do a little fire wood and clean around the fields
Happens to everyone, great team work getting it out!
Shane to the rescue!
LOL Molly well done, i have been there too and yes it really SUCKS but it is al part of farming you should get some yanking rope to help you out next time have an awesome day al the way here from Denmark
Hey! Thanks for the positive comment! We should get one of those ropes, lots of people have suggested them! Thank you for watching have a wonderful day🚜💚😊
Nice recovery, I would suggest you look into one of the kinetic ropes, much better than chains, would have come out in one pull, once you use ropes you never go back to just chains, I started using the ropes 40 years ago, but she came out pretty good
Yeah it did come out pretty easy! Will look into one of those ropes.
@@BellsFarming you won’t be sorry the big ones rated for your tractor are spendy, but so is lost time planter and field prep, I grew up on milk farm, stir run crops but no longer milk cows
Not gonna lie, so wish you were single Molly
Sorry! Very happily married! But thank you :)
