Renovating Our 100 Year Old Farm House
In this video we follow a Norwegian family on a small farm on the west side of Norway trough the everyday tasks during May 2024. We shear the sheep, paint the house, set up a new perimeter fence, rake stones and replant grass in the pig pen and finish the parking lot outside of our house.
For those that are curious: The tractor we use is a Fiat 480-8 DT 1982 model. The bread of sheep we have is called Norwegian Short Tail and the bread of chickens are a mix of different breads to get more virality on the egg colors (Silverruds, lohman, wyandotte, australorps, sussex, italiener, kobberhalset maran, cream legbar, jærhøne, rir ++).

Well done on shearing the sheep and repairing the door!!! 🐑🐑🐑🚪
Det flotte videoer du legger ut. Fortsett med det‼️ Men slutt med musikken. Den er stressende. Det er mye mer behagelig om vi bare får høre deg jobbe og de naturlige lydene, som fuglesang. Det er en vakker natur dere har og vi elsker den. La oss høre den👍🏼❤
Your property could really benefit from a FORRESTRY MULCHER MACHINE... it would clean up entire boundary and give back nutrients as cuttings decompose. Then run your livestock throughout your land. I'd suggest goats then hogs, to have a symbiotic grazing system in place. Your family will have the most amazing opportunities here. What a truly gorgeous property 🎉

Glad you enjoyed it🤠👍
When my dad and I were learning or re learning shearing he said never to pull up on the wool when your cutting as steps skin is quite thin and stretchy and it’s easy to shear a wrinkle of skin right off. Great work sticking with all the hard work and seeing it through!
Kalk.. mye Kalk = suksess, brillekant. nice, helt koret ... med alt som skal gro, spire, vokse på det sure jordsmonnet her i VEST, heheh, Gi Alt flinkafolket på Osterøy 💪
bra med fast gjerde,holder i 30 år pluss dette.flott plass.
Excellent video.
Såg du prøvde aksialbørsta på drillen, når du pussa på veggen. det er håplaust! Du treng eit hydraulisk toppstag bak på traktoren, det vill hjelpe mykje og kunne tilte skuffa. Bra video, stå på!
Great video 😂
Your shearing equipment needs to be sharpened. You have a double haired breed. The shears should cut smoothly, and your results are choppie, which indecates...equipment. sheep respond better in a flipped position for shearing. Try to locate a professional to do a deep shear off. Your property would support a actual shearing building. The fleece can be turned into do many things to bennifit your family. I hear bells, what is your natural predator in your region? I admire the calm relationship your family has with your stock. Harmony is excellent

You are probably right but I thing it is also a lack of experience. Right now we have so few sheep that each year it like we have to learn it again. 🐏😊
👍👍👍
In the UK we use a pill gun, you might want to look at this and should be available on the net or at your local animal feed store .

Thanks for the tip. I will look in to that. 👍😊
Vet ikke om det fungerer, men så noen anbefale å gi mat (i fronten av chicken-tractoren) når man flytter, for å lokke de frem. For øvrig fint å se at dere fikk brukt for "kompostjorda" :)
Brukte du visir grunning på bart treverk, slik at det ikke flasser så lett?
Thank you so much for another great video! :D Is it possible to donate every now and then instead of a monthly membership? It would be great if you have a Vipps-number where people can donate money?

I am glad you liked the video🤠 There are a button called super thanks on the videos that can be used to make a donation (KZread takes a cut)🙂
sharing the sheep, I am surprised you didn't look at videos to learn how to do it properly, Its seems you don't use the wool that you cut througt, its a shame, but also, the wool seems to grow very long in a year, and to be felted on the body of the sheep? I collect wool to spin it myself and I know certain sheeps must be share twice e year, from south west France.

Our sheep produce a substance that melts the fibers together as they are supposed to shed their wood. It makes them difficult to shear an makes the wool almost impossible to spin🐏 We have contacted several spinner an non had machines that coul taken wool from our breed. We use it as mulch around our vegetables👍🤠
Where is your dog?
Just crush the pills into powder stick it into a syringe add some warm water shake it well and wooala not sure about spelling of the word) That’s about warming the ship

Thanks, we have a tool for drenching them with liquid medicine and that works great. I will try to get the liquid kind next time. 🤠👍
få deg noen hjul bak på hønse traktorn,da går det lett å flytte den.
