Privy Digging Eggcellent, the most bottles we have ever dug out of one privy! 

Thanks brother man, I have heard that. Actually genius imo, I have also heard they were used as a sock darner for fixing holes. Thanks for the continued support brother man.

Sweet

Sounds stinky!!

I'm over in Yorktown, Va. Lots of places to dig!

that or a laying egg

Thanks brother man, really appreciate you and your continued support

Thank you yes that was a monster Bennington marble. I now have a blue and an orange one in that large size. Thank you for your continued support my friend.

We very well could have, there was a lot of stuff in that privy. We had the sifter going when we wasn’t filming and it was dark when we filled the hole. We also left a pile of over 50 bottles out of the hole for local residents to take home. Thanks for your continued support brother

Yes ma’am that was a nice old Milk of mag and a beautiful cornflower blue as well. Thank you for your continued support my friend

That sure was a full pooper 😂. Darn egg 😂 yes apparently pretty hard to find in the large size as well. The violin in a George R West Patent 1891 and was a cologne bottle. In mint condition worth 500-1000

Awwwwww ... 2 Clarks that are $75-150 each ...

Unfortunately the basement has been redone however they own an old brick building across the street and we have been given permission to search that basement and crawlspace. Future video brother man. Thanks for your continued support

Heck yeah that’s the word I like to hear. Rare 😂 those eggs are very cool only ever dug two, but they were within a week apart a week ago 😂. Love this hobby/career. Thank you for your continued support brother

Thank you , so glad you enjoyed the digging adventures and finds. Appreciate your continued support my friend.

Our newly welded probes are the best we have ever had. Got a new welder who is great and does it exactly how we want. Very easy to feel in the ground when your equip is up to par. Thank you for your continued support brother

Appreciate that brother, I tried to keep you in the action this time with not a lot of dead footage. Took us 6 1/2 hours to dig that one and fill it. Thanks for your continued support brother

Charlie, thanks brother I found out it’s called a George R West patent 1891. It was a men’s cologne and collectors pay 500-1000 dollars in mint condition. Mine is in my personal collection where it will stay. Thanks for your continued support brother

@@CrickDiggersInc Great stuff man... How do you get your bottles so clean?

I use cut copper from JarDoctor.com and fill the bottle half way with copper, add lukewarm water just above the copper, cover the opening and shake for about 30 seconds to a minute then just dump in a seine and rinse out.

Thank you Patricia, glad you enjoyed the digging footage and finds. Appreciate your continued support my friend.

Thanks brother yessir some luck has been on our side lately. Thanks for your continued support brother

Thanks brother, these main street privys are what’s up. Definitely the wealthier families owned properties all along main street back in the 1800s. Thanks brother

😂 I know brother that was nuts. It was right on Main Street so probably a good bit of boozers leaving the saloons would visit that spot and discard their empty wine and medicine bottles. Thanks for your continued support brother

Tony, thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the digging adventure and finds. Next we have a big stone liner probed out just waiting for ground to dry up a bit, Thanks for your continued support

Tammy thank you yes that was a monster and completely surprised the heck out of me. I love digging and learning about all the awesome history. Thank you for your continued support my Chickagoil.

Thanks brother man appreciate you. It’s been an exceptional year for Crick Diggers despite the Covid epidemic. Best way to social distance IMO. Thanks for your continued support brother.

Thanks brother next we have a nice big stone liner and it seems deep so only time will tell. If it doesn’t rain today we will probably be digging it tomorrow. It’s a nicer yard so we want to wait till it’s completely dry again. Thanks for your continued support brother

@@CrickDiggersInc THANK YOU!!!! Seeing a new Crick Diggers video always puts a smile on my face!!

Appreciate you brother and your continued support

So that's what they're for? Interesting!

Very cool man love learning about history and how e everything was used. Thanks brother appreciate the info and continued support.

Nothing easy about it except how we make it look brother 😂. The last 4 holes we probed and dig ended up being fill and no bottles. Lots of digging to get you guys the good stuff. Thanks for your continued support brother

Very good idea and will be throwing a role in the bucket future encounters of the deadly fence 😂. Thanks guys it got Corey good a few times, I only got it once. Thanks for your continued support

@@CrickDiggersInc Here where I live it seems everyone has chain link on there back line. I started doing out of pure survival.😁😁

Eric, you name the time and place, we will be there brother 😂. Gettysburg would be incredible to dig history and metal detect. I appreciate the invite tremendously brother and your continued support.

Sandra, 😊 thank you big time. Really appreciate your positive support of our channel. 😊

Yup. Probably to try and get the chickens to lay more bigger eggs

They were used to sew up sock holes.

Apparently they were multiple purpose use. The various sizes were used for different things including fooling laying hens, darning socks, and even killing snakes. Thanks for everyone’s info and continued support. 😊

Thanks brother man, glad you enjoyed the digging adventure and finds. Appreciate your continued support my brother man.

Cara, thank you so much for Subscribing. Sorry to hear about your health issues. So happy you are able to reminisce through our videos though. Hope you enjoy all our adventures and many more to come. 😊

Awesome, glad you enjoyed the digging adventures and finds. Many more to watch if you want to check out our tons of adventures. Thanks for your support my friend.

Yes that has happened a few times in our digging adventures and a very good idea as to why. Also when they would fill them in they would use whatever they had at that time. Usually more modern stuff we find on the top half or above the cap. Then under the cap nothing modern ever. Thanks for your continued support brother

Heck yeah brother, every yard sale I go past I’m looking for bottles and pottery on the tables or in boxes. Love to also go to Antique stores and estate sales. Thanks for your participation lastnight and your continued support brother.

Thanks brother man, appreciate you. Our next one could be epic or could be all broke but it’s a big stone liner right on Main Street still. Hopefully it’s just as loaded, thank you for your continued support brother.

This bigger milk glass egg would be from a turkey ? I can't think of any reason why someone would have milk glass, let alone colored glass eggs in those times - very expensive and unique item to make and sell

Kathy, thank you and you are very wewelcome. I appreciate your wonderful comments on all our videos and your continued support. 😊

As soon as I get your box. I will be sending both of you a gift from Texas. Something to help you in the dog days of summer and freezing winters. With digging. So until then have a wonderful week and weekend. Make a memory with your kids.

Well that’s the way I made the video look brother. We only recorded the pockets but omg yes bottles laying thick in this shallow privy. It was only 4 1/2 ft to bottom but they couldn’t have fit to much more trash in that one. Thanks brother for your continued support.

😂 I know it wasn’t an ostrich it was just the biggest glass egg I’ve dug or seen. Thanks for the info brother and continued support

Jude, unfortunately a good majority of the old houses are being torn down to make way for more modern marvels. We’re very fortunate to live around a good many old towns that still have some old remaining houses. Even a few1700s stone houses. Thank you for your continued support my friend

Hey Deb!! Hope all is good with you!👍

Thanks Debra unfortunately no most wine bottles are not embossed. Glad you enjoyed the digging adventure and finds. Hope to see you at tonight’s auction since lastnight RU-vid was all messed up. Thanks for your continued support my Chickagoil.

Yes Deb, we hope everything is going good for you. Feel free to email me or message me anytime you need anything.

Yep that was a good one, had me rolling when I was making the video. Thanks for your continued support brother

Chickenosaurus egg?

@@shakeme3290 yep, that's the one!

Humpty Dumpty 😂 except he didn’t fall off the wall he dropped his violin instead 😂

Awesome thanks for the info brother man

River, we appreciate the feedback brother and are trying to figure out a better solution for recording in confined spaces. Tripod is to big, go pro is to muffled, the iphones work great however we have the speaker issue. We’re gonna be switching to cordless mics soon but not sure if that will help with the speaker noise. Every dig is a work in progress and we’re constantly trying to better our quality. One day we will have all the nice stuff to make everything more crisp. Appreciate your feedback and continued support brother

@@CrickDiggersInc Travis- They make flexible tripods that you can wrap around a tree branch or in this case a root or fence. You should set up a link to Amazon to a wish list of tools or anything else you need for making the videos so your followers can help buy some of these items. One RU-vidr I follow has a dog in most of his videos and he's very popular. He set up a link to Amazon for his dog. People buy that dog all kinds of things like balls, treats that people pick out, and pay for then the items are shipped directly to the dog, or I should say to the owner, lol.

We were just talking about that today. We do need to create a wish list and we will start one soon. I have one of those tripods with the flexible legs but still hard to hear and any movement causes that same loud noise from the speakers. Always trying to be better, thank you for your continued support my friend.

Yes some great things can be found in creeks. Thank you for your continued support my friend and good luck on your next adventure.

Unfortunately we didn’t find either one out of 3 broken jars. Only one full jar out of dozens in there. Thank you for your continued support my friend

Actually a genius idea and will do next time we find ourselves in that situation. Thanks so much

@@CrickDiggersInc very welcome - I got to look out for my guys ;)

Absolutely we do and if you watched the entire video we actually show the area after it’s filled in and cleaned up. Thanks for your support

Yes I found out it’s a George R West patent 1891. Was a men’s cologne and highly collectible. In mint condition 500-1000 I have mine in my display of rare bottles. Made in PA although can’t remember the exact town. Thank you for your continued support my friend.

We appreciate the feedback Laura and are working on getting some wireless mics. Also looking into a nice video setup : we only use our iPhones and I’m still teaching Corey how to hold when he records. This was a lot tighter digging then what we usually do so I was shoving my phone through the roots and underground so you could see firsthand what it looked like. Hopefully one day we will be able to afford some nicer video equipment but it’s always a learning process. Thank you for your continued support my friend.

K[òiii>I>Utah 0...?

No sir Western Maryland

It was a milk glass and pontil at that 🤩. Apparently used for darning or sewing socks and the hardest size to come by. Thanks for your continued support my friend.

@@CrickDiggersInc Thank You

That is exactly what it is. 😊

My my visit was awesome 😎 😂, seriously though the New York trip was incredible. Had a blast, dug some awesome stuff. Thanks for your continued support my friend.

Privys are what they used as their bathroom or outhouse back then. They also used them as their trash disposal area. Everything was made of glass or pottery back then.

@@CrickDiggersInc Thanks for the info.

We want to dig holes with lots of old bottles....Be thy sinners or saints!! We don’t discriminate :)

Debbie, that’s a odd question and me and Corey had to think about it for awhile before answering. I don’t think bottles have a sinner and Christian difference. Believe it or not we dig more whiskeys and alcohol bottles in church privys then regular yards. Holy waters are big money and don’t find them very often so that might be a plus, However depending on the sin, it could benefit us 😂. Say a greedy person that wanted all the best stuff and no one else to get it, so they throw it in there crapper before they die. That is the one we’re after 😜

​@@CrickDiggersInc Yes I know it was a odd question, but I honestly wonder what the answer would be. Myself I think the liquor bottles have more of a chance to be marked so my thinking I want the drinkers.
