Wow! Your kids are getting such an amazing childhood. Too many kids are too far removed from the realities of life and death and where our food comes from. You should be so proud of what you’re doing, but prouder of the life you’re giving those kids ❤️
@@trendhive7604 I think that *especially* because you’re 16, that your opinion is exceptionally valuable. When I was 15, I bought my first horse myself and I worked part time during high school to pay for her board and all her bills. And even though I was footing the bill (and I also trained her with the help of a friend who is one of my best friends to this day, and I’m in my mid thirties), I wasn’t allowed to go and ride her unless I kept my grade average above 85%. I still had chores at home and I paid for my own car insurance to drive one of the family cars and my own petrol. I made even extra money every year around thanksgiving and Christmas, by helping a friend’s family slaughter and dress chickens and turkeys for sale. I also joined a veterinary 4H group and we took part in necropsies (animal autopsies) and leaned all about livestock and how to keep them healthy and how by doing these necropsies and learning, we help the animals alive and how to treat them with respect and keep them as healthy as possible and learned about how to change the industry by setting standards for keeping them, transporting them, and slaughter. To this day, I am so grateful I stumbled across this lifelong passion of horses and I’ve taught and judged and designed jumping courses professionally. I worked hard to become certified to do so and I have made sure my son is aware of how life works and the value of having animals in our lives. Keep that attitude up, you’re on the right path and I loved that you feel this way. I am proud of the work I’ve put in (I think I only have one video public on my channel, but it’s of me training my horse over some larger jumps, here in England - I grew up in Canada and only moved here because my husband is English). ❤️
@@Bigbaymonstermare It was a thing into me ever since I was 5 (even now) I prefer being outside rasing animals even putting them in graves all more than playing video games my family even did 3day food challenges with me that I pick the chicken or animal to eat and I did help through the process Even right now I just finished a hike 🤣 And seriously what a inspiring story you have
At the age of 8, i went to Mexico to my grandparents house. It was a ranch so they raised chicken and stuff. My grandfather's birthday came up so i helped catch the chickens and snap their necks. Food was great 🙂.
Hey!! I need this incubator...I am 14 and I was exposed to the idea of incubators when I was 10yrs and I used to make little homemade incubators and was never able to hatch any egg!! The fact that you are able to hatch birds from incubator and see a life developing inside a calcium shell is amazing!!!!!! I will hatch a flock of little Japanese quill!!
You remind of a song that says “Your love is greater, your love is stronger your love awakens awakens me” Jesus’s love does awaken you ❤️🫶🏼 his love is truly unconditional 🥹❤️❤️❤️✝️
I have two boys and I have been watching since you all were pregnant with your third! You all are living my dream. My husband has just enlisted in the Army and we hope to he able to have the life you have someday! Love your videos!
Having the babies in the Lego house yard puts in perspective how tiny they truly are. My son built lots of cities with Lego's. Babes are just 3 blocks high.
This is actually a very accurate incubator! You keep styrofoam and cover it during use both top and bottom to hold in the heat! You will notice the holes in it are made for the plus and view areas on top is for temp controls. The tiny spaces are for qual or other tiny eggs! Not water! The water reservoir is only where you place the sponge. There is also a hole in the front where you can refill it without having to open the top.
Your family is literally the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. All your boys are so sweet. Y’all have such a beautiful farm and I love that your kids are growing up in that environment. I strive to have a family like this one day.
My sister really wants a incubator for her birthday present! She has a real passion for birds and animals and I just want to see her happy!! Good luck to everyone joining the giveaway
We Homeschool and this incubator would be awesome to add to our curriculum 😍 the kids love their chickens they love feeding and giving treats. This is an awesome feature for an incubator!
So happy I happened upon this channel! Look forward every week for a new video. I see lots & lots of others love this couple & their oh so cute boys! Well mannered,caring,learning about animal husbandry & homesteading. Such a great school house for them! Thank you to all the people who make this channel happen & to this lovely couple for sharing a major part of their lives with the world! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
Hey when he said he was bulding a "worm house", it gave me an idea! How about building a lego earthworm compost box? It would be so cool to build something that you can actually use to compost scraps and produce TONS of earthworms! It also would be really self sufficient to have worms in your garden and to feed your birds! I think the boys would love it. And you guys too! (: Awesome video btw! Tiny baby quails are so cute, I cant even. Cool incubator, and for a good price too.
We would love to get an incubator. I homeschool my children and it would be a great lesson for them. They watched your video and loved it and now want to hatch some chickens!
Watch you and your loving family all the time (well since discovering your site (giggle)) I am 76 and what keeps me happy, healthy and borderline wise is my 15 chickens and 3 ducks...their personalities are just like us 'humans' ... varied some sweet and one fluffy rooster a junk yard dog bully! Thank you for sharing your family of humans and 'other humans' .
I have been wanting bantams on our farm for a very long time so an incubator can help us out alot because our broody hens are very stubborn this season, and eggs can't hatch themselves!
Good luck to whoever else enters! I would like this incubator because we have a very small chickens (don't remember the breed) and it would help a lot because they eat eggs. Thanks for the chance!
I am almost done building my quail hutch. I am now starting to gather supplies for feeders Waters etc. All I am missing now is my incubator and I've been looking into reviews on which one to get. I haven't been wanting anything fancy as I only plan on keeping a small number of quail. I am located in Missouri and finding White House on the hill has given me a lot of inspiration to start my own flock
I just love how caring y'all are with your animals. You can see the live and excitement for every new addition as well as the general care and maintenance of all your existing animals. But above and beyond all that, your 3 boys are so clearly invested as well. I can't believe hiw gentle your youngest is. Your such great parents. All your children will be fully capable and caring adults. Thank you for the example you set for others.
I found when we bred button quails, the babies were so tiny that they could escape through the tinest gaps, so we also fixed flywire to their brooder/cage until older to prevent escaping
Hatching chickens is super fun there are some breeds of chicken that are more likely to hatch chicks on their own Silkys are one of those and they are super cute
Here in Kansas. In the process of buying an 8 acre homestead. We can’t wait to expand our urban flock of 16 and I want to get my hands on Lavender Orpington eggs!
I have this incubator, I cut a cupboard cloth mat to fit bottom of incubator! At lock down I placed in incubator with sponges cut in half and placed in with eggs. This Worked well. The little holes or water I felt to be a drowning hazard! Glad I didn’t put water in them . I would love to have this incubator if you have any left! I also placed in tote box with lid to control ambient temperature! Worked well!
Omg please, Yous are my favourite yt channel to watch, there's always something different to watch. I have 3 beautiful pekin bantam chickens and love them all. Have only ever hatched out 1 chicken but that was from the broody mum and really want to try it. Love u all ❤️
I have bobwhite quail and a 3 and 4 year old nephews that love watching them hatch. I started about 4 months ago with a small incubator and I’m hooked. Love your channel
The incubator would be awesome to have! Our family just started keeping chickens last year and we were looking to expand our flock after our 7 girls started hatching only a month ago. It would be a blast to hatch some Plymouth Barred Rocks, and maybe even some Orpingtons!
My little guy and I would love to hatch some chickens in the incubator! We currently have about 40 chickens and 1 turkey named Tom who has become our protector against our roosters!
This looks like it would be fun, I’d love to have this incubator! I hope I’m not too late... we want to try to hatch quail, never tried. We hatch chickens every year, thinking to expand. We watch you guys all the time, you inspire us to try new things on iur little poultry farm... great for our homeschooling! Thanks guys!!
There would be the challenge of feeding them. They'd require constant feeding due to their tiny size and super-fast metabolism. Not to mention how sensitive they'd be.
@@flamboyantpotato4004 True, but can be done, watched one of the wildlife conservation centre and santuary for birds if prey as well as some birds in general (Southwest wildlife foundation) raised a small humming bird, it was amazing but yes very delicate, fragile and time consuming. But even grounded dried crickets or ground mealworms or juicy caterpillars with some water to make it pasty or grounded bird food with some nectar no dye or sugar water, and a really small dropperor syringe with small tube or very small metal scoop like chemistry one would work. Ah, yes, a chick called Albert channel maker raised some and fed them aphids and rose lice off a paper clip, oh that was an another small bird breed.
As far as I know, hummingbirds are exclusive to the Americas, which likely means there are little to none that are not on the migratory bird list, which means you must have a permit from federal fish and wildlife to hatch a hummingbird in the US. Not impossible to get a permit, but extremely difficult.
“Your number 1 fan since day 1 and would really like to owe the incubator and what I would hatch in it would be parrot eggs”. Many thanks from UK 🏴 Freddie Fred.
Me: sees the notification while doing homework😀😀 One side of me: finish and watch the video after Another side of me: it’s too good to skip on now. Immediately takes phone and starts watching. After the video: Yep definitely worth it!!❤️❤️
I could really appreciate having some baby chicks hatched from an incubator my fav family youtubers have used and given away! 🤗🤩 maybe some baby flower leghorns could be a great and pretty sweet starter chicks! I love yall and stay safe! Good luck to everyone joining the giveaway!!!! 🥰
The height of the container for the quail is quite high. So when they try to fly or jump they hit the ceiling in the container. I think thats the other reason for them to die so you need to research for that as well. From my farming experiance what i remember they were not more than 2 feet or less. Try to look into that as well.
Be nice to have one to teach the kids the miracle of life. Since the chicken started laying eggs and the kids be trying to make incubator out of whatever they can make one from. Stay blessed
My boyfriend and I have been talking about trying out raising our own chickens for a while now and we’re thinking of doing it this summer. This would be absolutely perfect to start us out:)
I'm sure you have already given the incubator away to a lucky person. I can't seem to catch when you are opening your egg boxes. Pretty 😎 cool!!! Love your 👪 family. Keep up the good work's. Bestest regards.
Me and my family would be so happy and grateful to win this incubator to hatch some of our chickens eggs and really just learn more about the process Thank you
@@whitehouseonthehill Before filling it, maybe just cut up some sponge or fill it with some clean pebbles or something? I bet there are even lego parts that would work. :)
Hi, I would love one of these incubators to hatch some more ducklings. Since recently, a few of my favourite ducks, that I hand reared last year were taken by a fox, I want to hatch some more to replace them and keep the remaining ducks happy. Good luck to everyone else and Thanks for the new videos, great stuff!
I love y’all’s videos and they have made me want to try like volunteering on a farm cause it seems magical but thank you for bringing joy to so many people have a wonderful day night or afternoon when or if you read this
I would love to hatch some eggs in the incubator, I would probably do chicken eggs at first. I love watching your videos, and I can’t wait till the aviary is done. I always wanted an aviary I just didn’t know if it could be built the way I would like it, but you are, so it gives me hope that someday I will have my own aviary. Hope you all stay healthy.
i would absolutely love the incubator! I've naturally hatched chickens before with momma hens. its an amazing process to watch even with just momma! i have always wanted to raise quail just haven't gotten the chance to do so! this would give me that chance!!! i just have to tell you your videos, farm and family are all amazing! i have dreams for the future bc of you and other farmers like you!
I got a little toy incubator. Which I didn't do well at all with. It was hard to keep it moist and warm. Next time I put food coloring in the water and a washrag to hold in the heat. The last 2 eggs my old chicken laid actually did hatch!
🐣 4:34 come on little guy..... Come on.....you can do it..... Welcome to the world.... Such a wonderful view into life and perfect music selections as well....... Thank you
Try SAVEING money up first farms cost to get started THOUSANDS were not talking a few hounded hatching quail or chickens WERE TALKING THOUSANDS so save up and research you don't need any animals yet you need knowledge lots of it to u need wood working knowledge animal care knowledge vet knowledge minor medical knowledge and even financing knowledge not all of which is professionalized so starting with quail or hatching won't do you any good
Oh my goodness they are cute! We used to use a 20 gallon fish tank with a wooden lid for a brooder. Fun because you can see them at any time. The glass is a good insulator.
I haven't been watching on your family's channel for 2 years until now but holy cow you guys have a cow now!!! and other animals!!! Im so happy for your family's success!!! more blessing come!!!
I would love the incubator! I just got my first quails and don’t have an incubator🙄😂 if you choose me you can have faith that it will be put to good use. I’m sure I would be able to maintain the water levels and the turning point etc. I hope you see this! 👍🏼🥰😊🥚🥚🥚🐣🐣🐣
Yes I want the incubator. I want to hatch some naked neck chickens. Never saw how the world would change from being your kids ages with a styrofoam incubator to this cool one. Been a subscriber forever loving all you catching journeys.
Wish I had a farm growing up but we only had horses, dogs and cats. I wish my kids were experiencing all the awesomeness your kids are. I feel like a failure 😭😭😭
I have a couple of Rhode Island red roosters. One is aggressive and the other is passive. They do make good meat birds, and the hens lay beautiful large brown eggs. My roosters are a little over 8lbs each.
I didn't comment in time, but here would've been my reasoning. I am 15 years old and I lost half my flock last year during two animal attacks, both within two weeks of each other. There's only 6 of my chickens left. I have a rooster and a hen that mate regularly and I always get fertilized eggs. I would like to experience hatching chicks on my own, but none of my girls are broody. We've tried to find a slightly used incubator, but to no avail. This is what I would've entered but I understand its too late for me. Anyways, to the person who won it, Congrats! I am happy for you :)
I know you won’t see this a year later but that incubator can be dangerous because it’s to smooth and the chicks slide so it can cause deformed legs which is never a good thing. Hope you see this and understand.
