Those chickens that run with the pigs every morning are priceless. Their legs move really fast!

@osherkline5357 Год назад

Actually the price is about $4 a piece

@tracyhayward1920 6 лет назад

Those goats really love Olivia and the spool play ground you made, so fun watching them playing together. Hope the tape works as good as it did for Weed em and reap! Praying for you to be able to rake and plant your field before it gets to cold.

@johnjanetcourant7517 6 лет назад

Dear Al, Your dog Pluto seems to be the most nimble and fastest dog I’ve ever seen.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

We think she is double jointed

Awesome update. It's the first time for a while that I have had an relaxing evening. And ending it with watching your funny goats is great. Have an amazing evening, Andreas from Off Grid Sweden 🇸🇪

@EvlRed 6 лет назад

Maybe you could make a teeter totter or slide out of one of the spools.😊

@MoHomesteading 6 лет назад

Maybe use that little one since its off balance anyway...might be fun...:)

@badroolshaw2638 6 лет назад

I could watch the goats all day

@moovingon6868 6 лет назад

Goofy goats... fun to watch. Your mowing reminded me of when I used to work mowing on a golf course. I could mow for hours and it never bothered me, gave me time to think. Nowadays I am in a hurry to just get it done. Good harvests always a blessing. I use cheap Wally World solar sidewalk lights to light up my out buildings. I have two and I alternate them. Most people don't know they just unscrew from the top and inverted, they lie flat, about the size of a hockey puck. Makes them easy to carry in your pocket till you need it.

@andrewlafogg4041 6 лет назад

Moose is telling both of you....Leave my ladies eggs alone....Back-off!! 🐓 vs. 🍳

@marlenereimchen9141 6 лет назад

I never wean the kids, I let the mom's do it naturally. Then again I don't milk my goats, I sell the kids for meat so I want them on their mom's as long as they keep them. They get nice and big over the summer grazing on all that summer grass and drinking mama's milk. He's noisy (Moose) because you're stealing his potential offspring. Those goats sure like the spools, I see Mama was getting a little annoyed with her snorting and fur sticking up, she's the boss and the queen of the castle. Nice harvest, we already had an early frost. I'm so glad I covered all my tomatoes, I was able to save them. Some other veggies weren't so lucky.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Wow you had a frost. What state are you in. What breed of goats do you raise

@jimclaire7996 6 лет назад

Al, do,you,feed your goats concentrates to increase production. Next spring you should have a lot of milk. I wonder how much more milk you will get the kids not weaning. I,am surprised a doe will let another doe's kids nurse. Al, thanks for sharing. God bless America.

@marlenereimchen9141 6 лет назад

Hi Al, I live in Alberta Canada about 45 north west of our capital city Edmonton. Yes unfortunately we had one night of a hard frost can put a damper on every garden around here. It took a lot of people off guard. I have a small heard of about 20 does and 1 buck. My buck is a pure bred Boer and this is my first year with him. So far he is doing a great job and he is growing nice and stocky. He was 1 in June so this is his first breeding season. Most of my does are Boer cross, either with Nubian, Alpine, Spanish, Saanen. Mostly Boer/ Nubian it's a real nice combination. They are a duel purpose goat, good for meat and dairy. We just chose the meat because milking takes a lot of time and I have so many other things on the agenda, I have a hard time committing to milking everyday. Besides by the time the kids are sold for meat my mamas are pregnant again and I like them to have a break before they kid again in January/February.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Marlene Reimchen how does the winter kidding season go with your wintets

@marlenereimchen9141 6 лет назад

It's a little tough. I have to be extremely aware of all my does and the signs. I have a small insulated barn and I make sure to always have those mamas locked up at night just in case. I also have a baby monitor in the barn and in our bedroom so I can hear when one goes into labor. That has been a game changer for me. It works great and I am able to really prevent loses. I always make sure the kids are dried off before I leave the barn and each new doe and baby get their own stall with a heat lamp for a few days. This also gives mama and baby a chance to bond. Then they have to go to another area and give that stall to another mama. I definitely need a bigger barn. They have a shelter for the day that they can go into. Once the kids are about a week old they are fine with the cold weather as long as they can go inside away from the elements. They all tend to cuddle together and they do an awful lot of playing so I think it keeps them warm.

@stephm281 6 лет назад

Have a wonderful day at school Miss Olivia!!😊

@Chantilly871 6 лет назад

Lol, crazy goats...too cute playing with Olivia :)

@rsoubiea 6 лет назад

Well Pluto sure gets a workout when you mow, lol. its been a great zucchini season here in CA, peppers and strawberries too.

@diniscastro9011 6 лет назад

U should candle some of new yolk city eggs to see if they are fertile. It would be interesting to see how the babies from such diferent breeds of chickens turn Out or simply to see if they can breed

@susieq7552 6 лет назад

Another enjoyable video. Thanks.

@americannomad513 6 лет назад

I bet the goats would like a double decker spool. One of the smaller spools offset on one of the bigger ones.

@deanlevang6031 6 лет назад

One of life's great pleasures--hearing children laughing.

@ourfloridagarden4191 6 лет назад

Good luck with 5th grade Olivia.

@homesteadwannabee4253 6 лет назад

The drone shot of you mowing was ingenious! I'm not ever gonna be that tech savvy, but certainly enjoy that others are. Love the goat playground. The hole saw trick is perfect. Blessings ~

@flowerpixie76 6 лет назад

Oh my goodness, your goats are so hilarious on the spools! I was laughing so hard! I could totally watch that for hours! Happy 1st day of 5th grade Olivia! 🌼

@johnaustin6649 6 лет назад

Olivia is going to get real fit chasing about with the goats like that.

@daynecox3149 6 лет назад

Hi, just wondering have you got a bees nest round the goats shead can here them when your milking.

@carlinkay1151 6 лет назад

lol...Willow should be called "MILKSHAKE"

@richardleonido 6 лет назад

you really nned to fix that chicken door in New Yolk City, it's getting harder and harder for you to raise to let the chickens out.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Once the humidity goes away it will be loose. 😂

@candidethirtythree4324 6 лет назад

Does goat tongue have receptors for heat like in cayenne pepper? I've heard only human tongue can perceive the heat.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

I don't know. I never heard that before

@PineBrookeHomestead 6 лет назад

There he goes!!! Hihi Moose! For some reason, watching you mow from way up high was oddly satisfying! LOL you should see how I mow... I'm ALL OVER the place. Have a great week, guys!

@filipegomes9519 6 лет назад

Goats and spools, i would watch it all day!!

@tara_a_santiago 6 лет назад

Al, why not turn that new small spool into a seesaw for the goats, I’m sure they would love it

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

A seesaw or maybe a treadmill

@chrissullivan6024 6 лет назад

Hey I see you need some light. Until you get that solar set up try those magic lights ( I think that's what they are called. You can find them at Lowes and Walmart. 4 double A batteries and then you just push it on and off. You could mount them where you want. Or try one of the hurricane lanterns that you should be able to find in the As seen on TV section at Walmart.

@hvnfun8601 6 лет назад

Tomorrow - how sweet it is! Question - what cover crop will you plant?

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

🐷🐐🐓🐔🍓 good day to you Al, Gina & Olivia !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on the homestead !! 🍓🐔🐓🐐🐷

@ustinman8446 6 лет назад

I guest , spools make goats crazy! If you have too many zucchini, harvest the FLOWERS, make a batter of eggs, parsley, S/P, Romano cheese soak flowers an fry as a fritter.

@theuniversalhomesteader7155 6 лет назад

Lol...one chicken got a food bath. Cool School! Dry enough to rake we all hope for u guys! "Al RU-vid Farmer!" Cool! Great video today! Missing Mooses crow though...lol

@roygould9454 6 лет назад

Have you thought of using 20' or 40' shipping containers for storage? They are relatively inexpensive, durable, and stack-able. With a little preventative maintenance they will last many years.

@karengates8508 6 лет назад

I don’t know who laughed harder, me or Olivia...The GOATS surely put on a great show!! 👍👍😂😂 Then there’s MOOSE, a BLAST from the recent past 😂😂

@mahealaniw 6 лет назад

@prudentroots6194 6 лет назад

I REALLY enjoyed this video! The family got a few good chuckles and our 4 year old was mesmerized with "the girl and her goats".

@straubdavid9 6 лет назад

Good afternoon New Yolk City. Pluto sure puts in the mileage while you cut the grass! Willow is beside herself playing on the spools. All my dancing is non-rain producing, so I guess I can help you out with a little jig ..... film @ 11:00 ..... not! Take care AL, Gina & 1st Day of School Olivia.

@dianamallory8535 6 лет назад

What an entertaining video! Loved the goats and Olivia playing. Thank you for sharing. Fingers crossed!

How many acres? Don't know how you do it all...what kind of vitamins do you take....i want some!

@danaholloman7101 6 лет назад

Had my morning laugh watching those goats! Your almost to 40k! God bless you guys!

@user-rq8lo2bd2s 6 лет назад

You can dry and make "potato" chips out of the zucchini or if you have a pasta attachment for your mixer you might try making zucchini pasta. That's a lot of zucchini. My chickens always get the really big ones -- seeds good for deworming naturally.

@Downeastwaves 6 лет назад

Thank you for the update! Nice, first day of school! Good luck with weaning. Hopefully. They wond be too noisy!

@marshasmith6320 5 лет назад

Those goats are fun to watch on there jungle gym. I love to hear Olivia laugh. So cute. Zucchini looks awesome! Great harvest. Great video.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

@carolconner346 6 лет назад

Olivia is such a pretty little girl, and so fortunate to have a strong father figure to guide her into adulthood. Mama is so loving too. Very lucky girl.

@moovingon6868 6 лет назад

Since I am new to your wonderful channel, will you be covering the gaps between the boards of the goat shed before winter, with wooden battens on the outside, to help keep out the wind in the winter time? Also are there big predators in your area, like bears? Thank-you for such entertaining informative looks on homesteading.

@TerrieAllred2023 6 лет назад

You've made a very loving home for your family! Beautiful!! I watch every video!

@cashk100 6 лет назад

Would you consider home schooling?

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

We would. Olivia really enjoys school

@cashk100 6 лет назад

Lumnah Acres that’s great 😃. I think that’s better for her.

@carolconner346 6 лет назад

Happy goats...Al you guys are the best you tube video homesteaders.

@robertdavis6033 6 лет назад

Once the pasture is up and running will wiring and water be one of the projects on the list for the barn. With winter coming that's what's on my mind after last winter. Is there going to be a whole hog class this fall. I'd love to do the same class for my lambs.

@jamest5149 6 лет назад

Strangely satisfying. look forward to your updates every day.

@joanneganon7157 6 лет назад

Don't forget to wash your hands. You might touch something and it Will burn!

@exotickeeper4181 6 лет назад

Your next broody with moose you should mark the eggys and let her incubate but only a few keep taking the rest.. Id be curious how small the birds end up lol

@jimclaire7996 6 лет назад

A nice video. I used to bottle feed our kids for about eight weeks. The started on good gay at just a few days. Several of our goats did over 20 #s a day. I used the milk for cheese and pigs. God bless!

@Susan.I 2 года назад

The goats love jumping from one to another spindle and after Olivia!!

@peekabewm2432 6 лет назад

another youtuber (weed em n reap) put a dot of tobasco sauce on the tape to discourage the little ones from trying to tear it off.

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

I think we might need to do that

@peekabewm2432 6 лет назад

sorry i totally realized that i made that comment right before you said the same thing yourself on the video lol. it seems to work for them. depends on your goats though, i think.

@kflan3342 6 лет назад

@LumnahAcres 6 лет назад

Maybe once I catch up some projects I will feel like I am on vacation. Lol. The goats are a riot
