I have finally been able to track down and pick up a really nice single draft animal chain harrow, this will work to help level ground, break up piles in the pasture and is very useful in the garden etc.

But if was playing the, "I wish" here is the one that has my eye and me drooling.. if you could have any human or animal powered peice of equipment to add to your preps what would it be?

This device may power any stationary PTO application, such as a wood splitter, water pumps, generators, refrigerators, hay elevators, etc.

That is a very cool idea - I wonder if I could get Maybe the donkey to cooperate...doubtful at this point!! 🙂 That would a job in itself.

Can you load and unload donkey in a trailer, as it would be the same step up and on for the loading, and then after that, its just walking forward at a even pace.. I taugh the hounds to go on a doggy treadmill in the north and can't see how this would be any harder..

Very, very cool...would it work with teenage boys too?

Well - that's just it 🙂 Maybe - the donkey arrived here in the back of a soccer moms van. I wasn't even here to see how it went. I can imagine driving down the road and seeing that site! At this point we don't have a trailer so I don't know. She is a donkey - stubborn at times but very lovely other times.

I could also think of some teenagers who could use this to burn off some steam - safer than letting them split wood with an axe! 😆

Got a little farm buggy for a single draft drawn, can be used in a number of ways on the farm and for local travel..
