That's what we are finally doing. It will make our plates overflow and we are so excited
Instead of corn what can i use I’m in Florida where it’s hot most of the time.
Started living my dream a few years ago.
Working my way towards that kind of life! I live in Michigan too I just don’t quite have the property or live in an area conducive of the kind of homesteading I want to do.
Why do you soak the feed over night first? Less feed needed?
Truth
Sheepigs.
I have two!! One is a Husky Pyrenees. Wouldn’t trade them for the world.
Spring has sprung 😊
Was that a Ronco Pocket Fisherman😂
You make a lot of great comments about the breed that people should know about. My dog is a rescue who was re- homed at one year old due to some of these traits. I love him especially because he is not at all like any other dog. And am grateful every day that he came into my home. Even when I'm sweeping hair or listening to him bark!
I free ranged a dozen chickens for a year. I live in Iowa in a wooded area. We have coyotes, fox, bobcat, raccoons, opossums, hawks, eagles….I am down to 5. All victims of my own dogs.
Couldn’t be more true
Agreed.
So cool
Great times!
TLDR: Lesbian Chickens
Id love to do this but i get extremely sad when my pets die
Looks like a great day in the neighborhood ❤❤❤
Coming soon to a yard near me
Those dogs are HAPPY!
You guys should really look into get your rabbit a small rabbit tractor my pair of holand lop bucks love the one I got for them!
We have one his name is Angie we also have a 3 quarter German shepherd 1 quarter husky her name is Faith. They need to be together
Not play sand. Construction sand. Play sand can kill your chickens. Not always, but it can.
How long have you had the hose for? This could be a game changer for us but it's pricey so I want to make sure it will last!
That is way better than I could do, but….does that run really protect the chickens from the winter weather? It can block some wind and rain, but my guess is that if you measure temps inside and out on a winter’s day….they would be the same. But I never had chickens and they may be fine with just the wind/rain protection.
Use sand like most ppl now instead of shaving a or straw……nasty options compared to the sand and scoop method. Also if using sand there is almost no chance of a fire…..no more so than our homes we sleep in lol.
Who's the PAPPY Chicks.?
so glad i found your channel, man you are honest!!! honesty is missing in society i feel :) :)
hi all new sub watching from australia ,love what y'all are doing.
Why only meet chicken
Why don't you people separate the broody hen? 3 chick's could be 30 chick's.
I really need to find someone to help me get started from nothing even if I could work on someone's homestead and learn how to take care of stuff and build stuff I want to start out with two busses and a van and then build a cave house and a Halloween haunted attraction business Please someone help me. I also want help to make a online store and sell and make anime figures and Halloween stuff. If someone helped me make the online store and supplied me with some art supplies supported me with art supplies that would really help out a lot and id appreciate it. it all starts with creating a online store so I can make and sell the things I want to make. please help me.
I like the idea of the coop because I didn't know how I wanted to build the coop
COMPOST ALWAYS ON TOP!
I like how you said “we” for everything but you never showed up in a single frame…
Damn, it's almost like she was the one filming
Logs will promote pest and bad fungus growth, actually a terrible idea, just use soil, plenty of local places sell large quantities of soil, I’m not talking about the big box stores like Lowe’s and ext, for flowers it’s fine, don’t not do this for vegetables or cannabis plants, I have been growing vegetables and cannabis all my life not worth doing this for anything other than regular non edible plants
It will WORK just fine. Have you ever heard of HUGELKULTURE? I have done the exact same thing and it works.
Great tips.
I don't recommend doing logs like that sure it helps save soil required but it will cause nitrogen to be unstable since nitrogen will be needed to break down the logs in order to access the nitrogen in logs
Did my beds like this, had two of them three years, no issues. My tomato’s are already thriving and as we know those are heavy feeders. Not saying it can’t cause issues but this is the most common method people use to fill beds
If you noticed they ADDED CHICKEN LITTER! Which is HIGH in NITROGEN! 6 months chicken MANURE is still consider HOT. So Nitrogen LOCK out is not a problem. LOOK UP HUGELKULTURE!
How'd yall fight off the ants? We live in Louisiana and I had two raised beds that we put the logs in and the fire ants took over the beds.
@@Victoria-uq8mf fire ants LOVE water! If you are watering too frequently they will thrive. Let your bed dry out quite a bit between watering. Meaning let your plants wilt before watering. This should run them off. Or make the habitat not habitiable. Hope this helps.
I love how you are also showing those beds' durability.
make it bigger. its too small
You are saying we an awful lot. I only see one person doing any work.
She filmed me first but she also helped
@AcresOfAdventure I was kind of being a dick for no good reason. I apologize for that. I think the stuff yall are doing is great!
My wife absolutely loves when Chelsea is more active in the videos. We've been watching for almost a year and really enjoyed the first few videos when she was in front of the camera. We have a couple littles ourselves so we get how busy she is but we would love to see her more! I still love watching you too, Tom!
These issues he brings up are so true. Another one is in the late winter and early spring, our GP girl tracks A LOT of mud into the house. She’s an indoor dog, but we have a fenced-in acre that she plays in and can run around in. At 3, she weighs around 95 lbs., fully grown. Her father weighs around 154 lbs. Another issue is she barks loudly at practically everything, especially at night. She also has selective hearing when you call her in. She chases our cats around, which I don’t like. He’s right about living in a neighborhood where the houses are close to each other. Ours is not. This was a good video and so true. That said, we love our Great Pyrenees girl. Like he said, she’s like the sweetest teddy bear.
“Drown the runt.” These people need to be in jail!
Dig a hole the size of a car tire. Fill with compost or just wood chips/straw. Hollow out the middle of it. Insert bowl. Water will stay liquid at least 3x longer.
Companionship when you aren't around. Since Guardian my 2 yr old Great Prynees came up missing 2 months ago, Annie, my pitbull/german sheperd preditor dog has been sulking and not herself. She's 12 years old and missing her left eye due to a hornet attack 2 falls ago. Guardian was her wingman when they would go after trespassing coyotes. When she came back 2 hours after they had given pursuit I didn't think much of it but when Guadian wasn't in the yard the next morning with a muskrat offering for Annie I knew something was wrong. To date he still hasn't returned and we've found no signs that he was killed. Late spring goose hunters were at a lake a half section behind our place and I believe they left a door open on their turck and he jumped in for a ride or they just saw a very big friendly dog and decided they needed him worse than we did. I'm currently in the process of adopting another prynees from a neighboring town that was an older kids pet, but for whatever reason the kids no longer have the time to spend with him. Annie & I need him so we're going for it. Thanks so much for these honest to the point videos.
This video was the reason I subscribed to your channel. I recently lost my 2 yr old to theft. He would jump into vehicles that left their doors open thinking he would get to ride. This may have led the person or persons unknown to assume he was abandoned or a runaway. He wasn't a roamer per say, he would go, at the most a half section (mile) but always with my preditor dog. He was her extra eye and they were inseperatible. Annie is a pitbull/german sheperd cross and lost her left eye to a hornet attack 2 falls ago. Guardian became her wingman when they would pursue the coyotes away from the property and either they would turn back because the coyotes were far enough away for dogs to break off or Annie made a kill. We've had other dogs stolen in this area that I became aware of through trying to find Guardian and one small dog took 2 years to track down the person that had him...found 2 states away in Wisconsin....I live in south central North Dakota. It was the end of spring goose season and there had been hunters in the area the evening that he disappeared. I had him scheduled to be chipped 2 weeks after he disappeared and he had a broad orange reflective collar on with a brass plate that had Catahula Hunting Club (Denhoff ND phone number) on it. He was solid white exceptionally tall and friendly. Anyway, everything you listed is true about them, but I've owned to date over the years 14 of these gentle giants. Guardian was both an inside and outside dog, but perferred to be outside doing his thing. Annie has been sulking around since his disappearance and clingy. I have an opportunity to own another from a person close to here who has 4 large dogs that belonged to her kids, but kids are either no longer at home or occupied with school activities to devote the attention needed. I look forward to the challenges in getting this new addition to the family. Loved this video very much and will check out your wife's video on reasons why you should own a Great Pyrnees. I won't quit looking for Guardian and I'll not be replacing him with this new to me dog, and if Guardian is found and returns Annie will have 2 wingmen to watch her 6's !!!
