Just a note ...if the pups are eating the poop (cow or horse) the may have internal parasites, they get the natural remedy from that poop. For some species, such as rabbits, eating fecal droppings is a totally normal way of obtaining key nutrients. In fact, if you prevent rabbits from doing this, they will develop health problems, and young ones will fail to thrive . Just a note from an ex farming type in Australia.

Always something new going on at Lola’s Farm! 😂 I do hope that you’ll help Rodrigo start building his house soon. 🙏

Hey guys, a big good morning from beautiful downtown Bangkok Thailand. I am happy to say I finally got my new phone and can see the keyboard good enough that I can type in the lower case letters. I think you might want to build some kind of metal frame around that area where you put the poop in so it doesn't fall over again next time you want to put a lot of stuff in at one time. I'm really enjoying watching you build your farm. You are doing what a lot of us older people did back in the 60's. I was part of that group and worked on a few farms. It was a lot of work and long hours. Some people succeeded but some also failed. One of the biggest problems was having to make so much money each month to pay the mortgage. You guys don't have that problem and that will let you concentrate on building your shop and homes. I can see how you would want that piece of land next to you. It would really make for a beautiful farm and you would have room for that many more people to help with the things that have to be done on a farm. I wish you all the luck in the world and as always I am looking forward to your next video.

I've seen the bio gas in the mountains here in Italy. They produce the same way as you guys. Way to go! Totally off grid 👍🙂

Those things do not really catch on as a gas producer in most areas. It is expensive dirty literally shitty and does not produce a lot of gas. Maybe enough for one person to cook but not for hot water for showers heating etc. The cheap availability or propane butane even diesel in almost all areas plus it is a very niche market. After all you cannot exactly put it in a suburban garden plus the raw materials are not easy to come by unless you are going to go the human waste route. Where they do score over more conventional heating arrangements is not the gas but the liquid fertilizer which is both excellent and tends to be expensive. I am guessing that the installations you have seen in Italy are both way larger and used on farms or smallholding for this purpose and the biogas is a useful by product.

Add dry egg shells to animal food for calcium.

You should build a central building that houses a large community kitchen for group meals, food processing, canning etc., laundry room, showers and living room / meeting room as well as a room for kids to play and do school work.

For your climate a screened porch style would be best. From experience, you want something at least 20' on the sides and with large doors that can be used to expand the space. My portable outdoor kitchen is based upon pop up canopies and steel tables, will accommodate 15 people working and feed forty is we are friendly. When you are putting up a harvest of anything, you need space. Rafters to string up stuff drying; tables to prep, to process, to let stand and pack. Think processing enough produce to fill the back of your truck over a weekend and all those bodies doing various tasks. If you plan for open air, you will have bugs and rain making you life a living hell. A table full of cooling jars of tomatoes and peaches hitting the deck because the kids (two and four legged) and dogs came running through will fray your last nerve. So will the chickens finding all the goodies you are drying. Cleaning the back end chicken product off the stove before you can process 120 quarts of tomatoes sauce is not fun. So plan out a large communal kitchen workspace. It should hold at least twice the number of people you want living on the property working, plus the smalls under foot. So by my count, that's twenty bipeds plus at least half as many quads (crawling humans to pups). The biogas is a great idea.

Yesterday I watched you both giving to the people in Mexico, it touched my heart. You are both beautiful souls who deserve every thing good in life my blessings to you both. I love what your doing here in Panama and still your helping others, helping those less fortunate and showing those people HOW to pay it forward showing generosity and above all love. Thank you because your also showing many others around the world. Much love and a healthy amount of blessings from The Land Down Under 💖💖🇦🇺

I think burning methane produces a large amount of water as a byproduct. Could cause issues with metal stove, pipes etc. I learned this from the guys at our sewage water facility. They burn off the methane in a chimney and they said it causes havoc with the pipes. I just remember that conversation.

The dogs lined up sleeping in the shade is EVERYTHING 💕💗

I am amazed at they fact Kaylee didn't get sick while you guys were working on the new gas system, you go girl, so nice to see how happy you guys are on they farm, thanks for sharing and as always stay safe, and God bless love ya Nancy

Every new episode is an education! Thank you for promoting such environmentally responsible living methods. Those puppies definitely belong with the Lola’s Farm family! They are so adorable and give so much love!

My understanding of crate training is that you should only leave the puppy in the crate for 1 hour more than their age, ie - if the puppy is 3 months old it can stay in the cage for a maximum of 4 hrs at a time, and always ensure they've gone pee right before you put them in - their bladders should be able to hold it for that long, and pick them up and take them outside immediately after letting them out of the cage. I believe you should only have one puppy per crate.

I remember farming lettuce while I was going to college. I would take the old farm truck and get loads of cow poo from the local dairy. It made great fertilizer for the lettuce.

The non human creatures show so much love. It's awesome. The permahouse is gonna be cool- can't wait to see the design. I admit to a bad gag reflex so more power to you. 😱

I used to breed shar pei, and kept the entire litter in the crate together. My pups were housebroken bfr they went to their new homes at 8 weeks. You have to be consistent. Feed at the same times everyday, and let them out if the crate at the same times everyday. I used to feed them outside, and wait 10 minutes or so, and they will need to go poop, they will prob need to pee immediately after getting out of the crate. After that, its pretty safe to let them run around inside for awhile. I would also take them outside abt once an hour in the beginning.

Someone may have said this before but each pup needs its own crate. Just large enough to turn around and lay down.. They won't poop or pee in their space. As they get larger, you make it larger. Place the crates next to each other. It does work but its a challenge. Of course there is lots of info on the web..... they are adorable. Good luck!

You need to add vitamins and minerals into the feed you are making for the chickens. We run a small poultry operation and make some of our own food. We use a vitamin and mineral concentrate. 20Lbs of the concentrate mixes in with 500lbs of feed. Without enough calcium your hens will stop laying, or will lay soft shelled eggs which they will then step on and eat.

The puppies are growing so fast. Super cute!

So exciting you guys are sharing and installing the BioGas Digester. Its a game changer when done right, love it. a friend BioGas Bob Hamburg would be proud. RIP.

Greetings Farmily, for me xmas mornings feel like Tuesdays n Saturdays when you post a vid. I grab a snack a drink (various types) put on my headphones (real ones, over my ears, wink wink) then sit down n unwrap your gift. I AM Amazed that I've watched you since you were installing the water tank on the bus. Soul Happy n Excited to watch how far your Farmily has grown with fresh ideas all the time. Thank You for sharing. Heart Printz to All of You

I suffered through all the commercials to add to your "Neighbor property fund" !!!!

Nice Biogas! The one we are getting has the flush toilet application. 😎🤙

Another fun show from you guys. I have a suggestion others may have suggested but.............. SIMPLE easy wonderful way to potty train those pups is.......... you build a smallish playpen type area 5 or 6 ft by the same (or larger if your willing) and have bedding on one side and potty pads on the other They dont want to be in potty so they wake up, go to far side of the "pen" do their thing and back to bed. Yea, if they go to playing and it's a small pen, they will get some mess, but you build accordingly. this is for their night time situation :) done this so many successful times :)

A doghouse with a swing door and a small little fanced outside area, would be the best for them for the night. They could go outside to make their business. It worked great for me. They lived from the 5. week in that small house with soft and warm blankets in it. I had no problem with sleep and they puppies slept well too.

Can we please a little more of Lola too😍

Great video love biogas. I built a biogas digester with a 55 gallon drum. I now can and have run a small generator off the biogas. Congrats on your way to free energy.

This new eco idea for waste interest me and something I would like to do for my holding so I be watching this closely as I like to know whether it works and interested in the costs as well if possible. great blog xx

The puppies are so darn cute and all the puppy Love and Cuddles you are so right about getting the cuddles now cause they grow so fast and won’t want all that cuddling.

I get the feeling Rodrigo does not agree with the location of the biogas experiment. His flower garden will now take on a whole other fragrance.

I've read all the comments in this thread and boy I am annoyed by the "gross" remarks. It's obvious these keyboard trolls know nothing about farm life. It's a messy business, long hours and hard work. I would join this community in a heartbeat. Someone said Rodrigo should run, he's wasting his time. From what I can see on his channel he's having a blast, he's learnt so many things and applying those skills and doing a great job - love his barn door. Kakey and his lady are fixing up the bus to be their temporary home, so I'm sure they'll be doing something about mould issue otherwise they wouldn't be moving in. I encourage the haters to listen to what these guys are saying - your opinion is not important. About those puppies OMG they are sooo cute and yes grow up too fast. Good parent training though with a baby on the way. Puppies will always listen if you train them well - kids on the other hand will eventually back chat and be disobedient. Pets are way easier than kids any day and you have so much love for them it's heartwarming. My question to the trolls is "what have you done/been doing that's worth sharing" ? From what I see these young people have changed the lives of many. Yes it may be small things but the people whose lives they touch are changed forever, they are given hope - something that is mostly in short supply. Kaylee & Jordan you are doing an amazing job. I am an avid admirer and happy that you have South Americans, locals from Panama, and fellow South Africans on your homestead. You guys are one of my favourite channels to watch - having a homestead community is my dream. All the best with the biogas experiment, hope it works out for Rodrigo's cooking needs. Looking forward to seeing the organic garden produce and that rooster crowing is priceless. Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa 🤗🤗🤗

All of you are wonderful and give off such a positive vibe.

I love your love for the animals. It is nice to watch you giving them the best home possible!

I have create trained all my dogs. You have to remember that they are puppies. You need to get up every couple hours and bring them out to go the bathroom. You can gradually extend the time between getting them up. The. They will start to hold it all night. Also your create can’t be very big. You need it so they can lay down and can spin in the cage. The more room you give them when young will allow them to poop in the cage. This has worked for me. Hope this helps.

So glad the crate training is coming along. Dogs wont usually use the bathroom in their sleeping area. But with puppies they can only hold it for so long and still normally need to be taken out at night. A feed, take out to poop, then bed time routine usually works pretty well. Yes, you are looking a bit pregnant. I never got really big or showed my pregnancy like many women do because of years of Gymnastics, so my stomach muscles were very strong. Don't get me wrong, I did look pregnant in my third trimester. The good news is that my abs returned to completely flat petty quick after birth with both my kids. I'd say that my figure actually got better because a bit more curve at the hips. Being active is wonderful. Love the natural gas set up. It will be interesting to see how it works. God bless.

those puppies are so adorable and learning fast i see. good job so far

Good Luck with the crate training ! Was wondering how you plan to move the fertilizer after its treatment in the bio reactor ? Hopefully not in a wheelbarrow, that would be messy and wasteful of your time and energy. Perhaps you would consider elevating the big bladder on a platform that to be slightly above the bed level of truck so it could be connected to another bladder system or containers as receptacle and drained downhill using the slope you already have it placed upon for pumping help ? Then it could be moved efficiently and dispensed widely as needed for various plots. One of those IBU Containers would work, and can be moved into bed when empty by a few people, but would hold all the water you'll need for refilling reactor or draining the fertilizer.

It's very difficult to train dogs, but one of the most important things that I have done is train my dogs not to eat anything that is given to them by strangers, thrown over our fence. That stops them from eating anything that could harm them. It's very difficult, but anyway you're all doing a great job and don't need my advice. Great video

What I will never understand is how people watch these videos and consciously give it thumbs down, like how! Especially now with puppies, I mean c'mon

Holy moly! So many cute dogs! Great job on using all your resources. You guys are an inspiration!

The biogas digester needs sunlight (heat) to start breaking down the enzymes to gas. It doesn't happen quick but once it starts as long as you don't stop feeding it works great.

Remi’s so excited to watch how it works for you! He’s been wanting this system for years now.

Biogas has been used in India and Asia for decades or longer. You can find DIY plans online that are more user friendly. An inner tube store excess Li gasses and provides pressure. It tends to burn more efficiently using natural gas jets opposed to propane

You could try using a cordless drill attached to a paint mixing paddle to get a more constant slurry.

Those puppies have the BEST life!

You might consider an enclosure of some sort to keep animals and blowing debris from puncturing that bio gas bag. I know it's strong, but sun and claws and teeth and really strong winds can damage it over time. I imagine it will also produce heat so it will be attractive to animals to warm themselves on etc.

I have never seen anything like that pooped machine you have going, unreal. Love how your puppies trail along behind you & I hope the man will drop his price on the land next to you, that would be amazing 👏

I agree only there are many ways to make the composting gas is relatively easy to make by yourself. That would be more strong than a bag.

I worked many years in a sewage works we had digesters while they work very well they give off not only CH4 but CO2, H2O, H2S or Hydrogen sulphide which is nasty gas as it can kill you. We always used gas monitors I realise this is small scale and I’m sure you’ve done your research having said that it’s a great addition to your farm. you can also put your human waste in as well.

You need a puppy playpen for at night with puppy pads in that and blankets in crate that way they learn not to poop in their house

Hi there you two. I am hopeful that all your plans work out. There's much to learn from dogs and about dogs. Why not invite a couple of well known guests famous for keeping pets, like Cesar Millan, maybe? Or , perhaps a couple of well known veterinary doctors? Also, is there a test kit for ecoli testing? Kaylee and children need to eat only vegetables 110% free of ecoli. Also, pregnant moms must not and never operate the electric fence switch or wires because it's dangerous. Keep positive in the meantime and follow safe measures. You're wonderful and you have your video friends to look after your wellbeing. Hopefully your pups will get their homes very soon so Kaylee can get much needed rest. Lifting unnecessariy is best. You need quiet too. The pup after Roger may mean a pup that will grow up with that temperament. Look up what the American Seeing Eye Dog screening is for safe dogs. They are tested by seven weeks. If they do not pass by seven weeks, they are put out of the program, with no exception. Most training with problematic dogs is for the humans attached to their dogs. The character of the dog never changes. I love your humor and adventure. Keep it simple though. Everyone loves Lola and Roger. They are the star pets.

Wow...biogas!?! YOU GUYS ARE THE BOMB! I hope not literally!😂😂😂Those pups are so precious and you both have such patience with them! Forge ahead with humor and consistency and you will prevail! 🙌🙌And that Kaylee thinks she looks so pregnant...😂😂😂😂 She ain't seen nothin' yet!!💚💚💚Stay safe, be well and see ya next time👋👋👋👋

I'm so excited that you are using Homebiogas. I'd looked at that as an option for an off-grid homestead in AZ. I'm looking forward to seeing it in action. Are you going to add the toilet option in the future?

#cratetraining- it has to be big enough so they have separate areas for sleeping and pooping. Also you wouldn't expect puppies at that age to make it through the night without going out once or twice during the night.

I don't remember much about this video after you showed the bagel with cream cheese and bacon. Now that's all I'm thinking about 😂
