My brother had an Old English Sheepdog named Ambrose. He would follow kids at the park up the ladder and go down the slide. He stood in the que too, never cutting in line.

What a wondrous video to wake up to this morning ☺️😉😀😃😛. I would bet that this version could be broadcast on TV and get thousands of likes. This is a fabulous mini movie that should be shown to children as well! Schools, libraries, summer camps and rec centres programs for kids. You two have accomplished great things at your homestead………I can hardly wait for the rest of the world to discover your channel. It’s bound to happen. Sending hugs 🤗. Stay cool 😎

Hello Chad, wow, you have done so much work! Your garden is huge. The octagonal chicken house you built is amazing! Plus the duck house. I don’t think I could harvest the poultry, but I understand that’s what they’re for. I’m also very much into Permaculture and have used Hugelkultur extensively as well. You have a wonderful farm. Love the humor.

I know this is an old one Chad but great viewing to see what you have all accomplished in such a short time. On a similar journey her in Ireland, 10 months in on a much smaller 5 acre site but getting there. It is important to learn new skills and the challenge is what gets me up early every morning. Your videos are a great inspiration for not only entertainment but ideas. So I have already decided no geese 😄

how do you keep wood from rotting?

@HiddenSpringFarm

6 ай бұрын

Any wood that’s touching the ground is pressure treated. I’ve used pt a lot so it’ll last decades.

Lots of great ideas here. It’s a shame you’re not spending some effort on restoring nature, for example restore the 40 acres for native flora and fauna instead of keeping it for hay and horses.

@HiddenSpringFarm

3 ай бұрын

Thnx for the comment, there is a good reason to keep the 40 acres of hay it’s cause we’re zoned agricultural and get the lower farmers rate of property taxes otherwise the taxes would be fairly high 😉

I love your artistic dreams, but your chicken coop has major problems. First, with no underlayment [tar paper or ice & water shield membrane (best choice) ] your roof will leak over time on that slope. Shingles are not guaranteed installed like that. Second, the flat pitch of the roof will not allow snow to slide off, thereby increasing water standing on the roof which equals leaks. Third, you probably don't have strong enough framing for the snow load in your area, thereby having a potential collapse. Your ideas are great, but your mechanics needed a professional.

@HiddenSpringFarm

Жыл бұрын

All good points. It holds the load just fine, but I sure hope I don't have any issues like you describe...so far so good and it's been a year. I really wanted a steeper pitch but it was already getting too high with my crazy design idea lol. In hindsight I should have used an ice shield especially for just a few hundred dollars more. I just thought it was just a chicken house so we'll see. I hope it'll hold up or I'll just tar the whole thing lol. Appreciate the comment.
