Hello Patricia 👋 Can I ask you a question?
Hi Jim and Brenda...I have watched this video 3 times as love listening to the Grandkids giggle and laugh with the pigs. God bless those kids😂😂😂
Sorry to hear that Baron had some bleeding from his surgery but doing better now. Brenda to jog and Baron to trot make a great team together to keep Baron in shape. Love seeing the Grandchildren on the farm along with their laughter. Love to watch Jim teach Alice Marie on walking Baron to the barn and whoa to Baron and him stop as Baron is a lot horse for a wee one. Great job Alice Marie. 👏 👏👏 God bless you all Gordon Family and keep you safe 🙏 ❤

If those pigs are destined to become sausage, I would have named them Ham and Bacon. I would have a hard time frying up Queen Esther or Saint Mary for breakfast!

Jim, I certainly admire your sporty wife, I would be even happier to see you on your bike with Baron trotting along nicely next to you. 😂
That calendar will be eaten. I’m sure Lady will rest better now with piggies no longer in the neighborhood. Children really enjoy the farm. A special time for them. 🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴
Look at Ellis Marie driving Baron!! Love that you had the family all together for Thanksgiving, and I'm sure everyone had a wonderful time. That's one more way to get steps in, Brenda. 🤩 So thankful Baron came through his procedure well.
Jim, Brenda Great Video! So glad Baron is doing great after his Castration. So nice to see Noel, Ellis Marie, and the boys again.HI to all of you! Jim, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Good to see Baron is doing better. Brenda sure getting a workout
Brenda that’s a great effort running with Baron, you are a team player. I’m going to try your pastry recipe thanks for your videos, keeping the channel growing.

Thankyou so much for the follow-up on Baron. He looks fabulous! Also Thankyou for sharing your grandkids with us. Love seeing the girls holding the kitties. If I lived closer I might be tempted to talk you out of one of them. I wish I knew how to get one of your calendars. I’m ignorant about internet stuff. I also enjoyed your grandson giggling about the microphone taking in the pigs noises. 😅

A beautiful family. Watching from Panama City Florida, USA. 🇺🇸🦅 No Snow Just Breeze !
was good to see your family again,,always fun on the farm...thanks
It's so nice the grandchildren got to spent Thanksgiving with you! I remember how much fun they had on the farm back in the summer. I got so tickled myself hearing them giggling as William and Jim brought the pigs inside the barn!😆 I hate Baron had some bleeding but, hopefully, he's doing fine by now. He is such a gorgeous horse!❤ I wondered if you guys got much snow. Saw a snow storm was hitting parts of the northeast. Little Bree is so pretty!!
Good-looking Shed William Built! Hum! next generation Teamster getting her start1
Barron looks great. And glad Brenda is helping Barron work out. Congratulations on getting a piglets. Ester and Mary❤️

Glad everything went well with Barron's surgery. I see Brenda getting her steps in exercising Barron. Your grandchildren look like they are having fun petting the pigs. I would have one bacon and the other hammy lol. Sure looks damp and chilly up there. God bless and keep safe from hot sunny Florida
This must be the time of year farmers work with the pigs. We have a field around our area and it now has about 50 free-ranging pigs in it. There is a couple of feed boxes in it. I have not noticed any shelter yet but there are plenty of long weeds and grass in it. During the summer the area had sunflowers growing in it then early fall there was black angus. I love to see the grandkids enjoying Grandpa and William's pig show. They are not afraid or are they of squealing pigs.
We castrated a 5 year old stud years ago and the guy who did it said to saddle him up 2 times a day and ride him for an hour twice a day until the wound was almost healed. Had no problems with him. The guy who cut him tied him down and used mascilators on him.
It’s so nice when the grandkids are in the video! Also good to see the piggies are settling in quickly!!
It looks so beautiful there this morning. Glad he's doing well.
Have some mercy on Barron.
Breigh looks Funny with the Burdock in her hair 😊❤
Baron is great and Brenda is getting her exercise too!🏃🐎
The pigs are adorable. So are your grandkids 😃🙏❤️
Gorgeous horses!!! 🥰❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🇨🇦 🐎
So good to see Baron tolerating mild exercise, and your grandchildren. I bought a calendar about three weeks ago and it's terrific. However, next year, I'll wait until Black Friday so I can get the discount!
I've never been able to tell the brothers apart

He's got youth on his side as far as healing up...just hope there are no more little pop-ups. 🙏 You've had a busy household over this Thanksgiving! Isn't it fun to have all that life in your home? Im sure they love every minute of being there! That looked loke a new pen for Esther & Mary? Is it away from the horses? The kids sure were loving on them! Have a wonderful weekend with your family!

@@uteschneider3349 Huhu, kostet 12$, also etwa 11€. Leider nicht günstig. Würde sich lohnen, wenn mehr gleichzeitig bestellen, bzw. wenn man selber mehr auf einmal bestellt, dann sinkt natürlich der Versand anteilig. Ab einem bestimmten Betrag kommt dann noch Zoll oben drauf (war bei meinem Geschirr so - aber natürlich nicht beim Kalender). LG Chris

@@chrislittlefarm Dankeschön für deine Antwort! Ich hatte leider vorher gerade keinen Kommentar von dir gefunden. Sonst hätten wir vielleicht zusammen bestellen können, die Kosten teilen können und ich hätte noch den Versand zu mir per Büchersendung bezahlt. Ich werde mir das nächstes Jahr mal ausrechnen und dich dann mal fragen. Vielleicht wäre das ja möglich, wenn ich dir vorher das Geld überweise, daß du nächstes Jahr für mich mitbestellst. Ich habe noch was anderes, da du Jim ja gut kennst. Jim sollte Barons Wunden und Schwellungen mit 3 %igem Wasserstoffperoxid in Apothekenqualität besprühen. Das hilft super gegen Entzündungen und desinfiziert Wunden. Ein altes vergessenes Heilmittel. Keine Nebenwirkungen. Zerfällt nur zu Wasser und Sauerstoff. Ich habe 2 Bücher 1) Wasserstoffperoxid Das vergessene Heilmittel 2) Wasserstoffperoxid Anwendungen und Beispiele Kann man bei YT Gesundheitssendungen drüber finden. Das sollte Jim unbedingt verwenden. Damit nicht noch Keime reinkommen. Kann er mehrmals pro Tag verwenden. Aber Achtung.Wenn Keime da sind, bilden sich Bläschen wie bei Brausepulver. Es kann etwas krabbeln und picksen. Vielleicht denkt Baron, es ist eine Fliege und will sie verscheuchen. Nicht das der Huf dann kommt. Wenn Bläschen sind, ruhig gleich mehrmals hintereinander draufsprühen. Man kann wirklich zusehen, wie die Schwellungen weggehen. Das Beste und billigste was es gibt. Für Mensch und Tier. Würdest du das Jim bitte mitteilen?? Vielen Dank! Ich möchte nicht, das Baron evtl Komplikationen bekommt. Ich hab das mal mitgekriegt. 2 Hengste unmittelbar hintereinander kastriert. Eines ok. Der andere mit Blutung und hinterher Entzündung mußte dann erst mal für Wochen in die Tierklinik. Da die Enkel gerade da sind und Baron bewegt werden muß, werden die 2 bestimmt keine Kommentare lesen. HOFFENTLICH PASST DAS GESCHIRR PERFEKT!

@@uteschneider3349 Das ist gar kein Problem, ich bestell ab und zu mal was, da ließe sich sowas kombinieren. Das Wasserstoffperoxid hab ich schon mal gehört aber noch nie ausprobiert. Hatte bei meinen Pferden bisher - zum Glück - nie größere Wunden. Kleinere Wunden bzw. Schrammen behandle ich immer mit Zinksalbe, was auch immer ganz gut funktioniert hat bisher. Einen Hengst hatte ich noch nie 😊 Baron ist auf jeden Fall ein zuckersüßer Kerl, soviel kann ich sagen. Er hat einen bildhübschen Kopf und einen angenehmen Charakter. Mein Liebling unter Jim's Pferden ist aber Ken. Bill ist auch ein tolles Pferd, aber ein derart extremes Energiebündel, das kommt in den Videos garnicht so extrem rüber, wie in Wirklichkeit. Die zwei Geschirre die mir Eli gemacht hat passen einwandfrei! Das war für mich ein bisschen Poker, aber ich habe mich auf Jim's Erfahrung verlassen und was soll ich sagen - ein Volltreffer! Habe inzwischen schon ein paar Einheiten im Wald mit den neuen Geschirren gemacht und muss sagen dass das schon ein großer Unterschied ist zu meinen Brustblattgeschirren (die ich rein zum Fahren auch weiterhin einsetze). Ich hoffe ich komme demnächst mal dazu das ganze in einem kleinen Video festzuhalten und auf meinem Kanal online zu stellen. LG -Chris
PG here Happy Thanksgiving! We got 4 new piglets in May and it does work to calm them down and make them friendly. jLet some children play with them. A nephew here loved them and was over almost every day! He gave one a new name. Hi Alice Marie, James, and Noel I Love to see you Working Horses and Piglets with Jim. You did a great job calming the piglets down.
Hi Grand-Daughter…from Byron Bay Australia.
We received our calendar in the mail a few days ago. I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed looking at the wonderful horse photos. It was so nice to see Buck😢. Happy Thanksgiving to our American friends.❤️

I sure do feel your pain with all the mud here in Maine, it's to be in the teens tonight so all of the holes will freeze over and cause bruising on hooves, oh yeah, throw in twisted ankles for us humans haha.
A very sweet video, thanks!
Great Video of Your Family and The Farm Animals Nothing More Precious Than Them Grandbabies Happy Baron Is Doing Well After Surgery Looking Good Trotting Around Very Nice Looking Horse Hopefully Y'all Had A Great Thanksgiving Sure You Did Sending Prayers For You and Your Family Blessing And Please Be Safe ✌️
Glad Baron is doing well..he just appears a wee bit off in the rear..I'm sure he is a little tender but in a few days he'll be good as new..the swelling and bleeders will also resolve ..light movement is key.. Little disappointed I missed your Black Friday special..I placed an order last week..the hat I wanted was out of stock but I'll just wait until spring..that way I'll have a fresh hat to wera out and about😊.. Hope the children continue to come for visits..nothing like growing up with work and family and animals and nature..as always prayers and blessings
I'm wishing my life away waiting for the sleigh rides in the snow and the girls singing ( not so much Jims ), But it won't be long now.

Pigs. There goes the neighborhood. 😉
Jim thanks for the follow up about Baron . Im sure you fetched those hunters home on Sat Nov 18th . If not " oops " .😅😅😅
Be interesting to see if Barons attitude changes..I cut my fellow after a few years of having him as a stud and for nearly 5 years he had a stand off attitude..before he became my best mate again ( he finally forgave me)..
Say It Ain't So !! Poor Baron !! 🤯
Nice gelded working horse
Hey Jim, I've got an idea for you. I know coming up with ideas for topics to discuss gets difficult as you do this for multiple years and the farm cycle kinda stays the same year in and year out. My daughter has gotten really interested in breeds and breeding lately, particularly since she has been listening to your videos from across the room as I watch them. She has always been interested in rare and heritage breeds, particularly Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horses as she got to ride one of mine when she was little, and Morgans, because of loving Laura Ingalls Wilder. Now she is getting really interested in the Suffolks as well, from listening to your channel, enough that she is getting up and coming over to actually watch with me. Anyway, she's been peppering me with questions about comparative conformation. She wants to know the nitty gritty details in differences in conformation between your Suffolks, Belgians, and Percherons. She's asking me questions like which breed has longer pasterns, which has longer cannon bones, who has the longer back, and how does that affect their power, soundness, etc. If you've ever looked at the old pictures they used to take at state fairs that were a mare and her progeny, or a stallion and his get, or all the mares of one breeding farm, or all the stallions of one breeding farm, those are the kind of information she is wanting. Many of those photos made it into college textbooks as examples of the pinnacle of the breed. It would be quite interesting and useful to see photos like that, of the horses stood up together from behind, from in front, and from the side, where is was possible to compare the similarities and differences among them, while they are all in the same position. It would be useful to see the Suffolks together so you could compare them, but it would also be interesting and useful to see all of them together, so you could see the differences among them. www.alamy.com/judging-farm-animals-livestock-chapter-vii-the-comparative-study-of-draft-horses-it-is-assumed-that-the-student-through-the-use-of-the-score-card-has-become-acquainted-with-the-points-and-general-conformation-of-the-draft-horse-with-this-in-strument-he-has-attempted-to-analyze-and-measure-the-value-of-the-points-of-the-individual-ak-a-matter-of-progress-in-the-study-of-animal-form-it-is-necessary-that-comparisons-be-drawn-between-individuals-if-two-horses-of-the-same-tjpe-stand-side-by-side-it-is-entirely-natural-to-make-at-once-a-comparison-between-them-two-horses-are-never-mat-image232335742.html
Love all your videos! Currently sick in bed with COVID (feeling quite ok-ish tho) and binging Working Horses With Jim - videos! ❤ Big greetings from Germany 🇩🇪!
I was always told after castration,animals should have light exercise,but no pulling ,lifting,or anything strenuous for a couple of week then only light work…..
In my humble opinion, it was a difficult but very wise decision on their part. A stallion can be very dangerous no matter how careful an owner might be. Mares can be difficult as well during their heat cycle, but not quite as dangerous as a stallion. It was very clever to keep his sperm in a bank.
Great video !
I take it that, being a draftie, Baron hasn't been taught to lunge? That would be an easier way to trot him than having to run with him for the duration!

Does Eli have horses?
Does a stallions temperament change immediately upon being castrated ?
This would be easier if you ride the horse i would think? and If I just had that done I don't think I would be out jogging, just saying lol.
