Im sorry you lost your little ducklings... and the Momma was injured... its a harsh lesson to learn that caring for animals means you have to think defensively for their own survival from predators... Its a huge learning curve...! You've accomplished so much... and have amazing results... Bless ❤
😢 poor baby duckling. What terrible weather you have had. Andrea nearly blown away, naughty little pigs escaping! I bet the orange drizzle cake made up for it all, it looked delicious 😋
Sorry to hear about the loss of the ducklings. It must've felt like a strange coded message when the neighbours arrived and said ' your pigs are swimming' The storm was wild. I guess they called it Nelson because it only had one eye.
Nick, from the many times I've seen you appear on other homesteaders' videos, as the willing and friendly expert/helper, your Superman t-shirt was most definitely made for you!! Thank you for showing up in the inspiring way you do, I am a big fan. Cheers, Lee
Looked up your storm "Nelson", seems to have run the gamut. Wind, rain and snow in the mountains. Not even a storm keeps you from getting things done. Sorry about the fox attack.
Sorry for your difficult week but you always make the best of it👍 When you and Ange were carrying the duck house you looked like 4 legged blue polyesterized African beetles😅
Moving the blue duck house you can see the point mother nature steps up her game and makes it just hard enough to be hard work but not so bad as you leave it for another day. I'm really sorry about the ducklings, again mother nature knows how to test us. No shortage of Vit C in the cake, I bet that tasted amazing..
Nick you are an amazing neighbor to your community. The help and advice you give is extraordinary! You are a Gem and loved by many. Sorry about the duckings. I was worried it was the piglets, but they sure got chunky. 😊
Bom dia Nick. Um dia espero ter o prazer de vous conhecer. Todo o trabalho que tem feito para ajudar as outras pessoas é de uma grandeza maravilhosa. Uma pessoa como voce é muito raro . Tenha um bom dia.
Very sorry about the ducklings. Seems there is always sadness in the triumphs. I'm sure you both and the duck mom are feeling a little empty, but life will go on. The cake seems perfect for Easter. Thanks.
I'm so sorry about the loss of your ducklings. It must have been so upsetting. You can make clotted cream at home. My grand mother used to make it with fresh (from the cow) cows milk. 🙂👍👍🇨🇦
Tears 😂 just sad for mum dad babies ❤❤❤ y’all must be popular these days. The commercials are so long and so many..[; but worth waiting through U2 are the animals in plants lol look great thanks for sharing
Part of the vicious side of nature😢. You all provide the best for your stock and all the outbuildings look so natural to the environment. Best wishes.❤
I cannot believe the crazy winds you are getting! I was concerned Andrea would blow away with the pen! What a crazy scarey storm, and there you two are, out there working in it, protecting your dear animals.❤❤
Oh no 😢I am so sorry to hear you lost your ducklings to a predator, 😢sending you both higsss, on a goos note, the new pen looks amazing & Andrea's cake looked delicious 😋, take care both of you ❤❤❤❤❤
Wildlife will find the weakest point and... Lessons learned. Loss of young ducklings is hard when you see them grow. It's not only foxes that roam. Great video though.
Fantastic all round video. Loved the extreme gardening 😂 I thought Angela was going to take off with maxes shelter, Mary Poppins 😂. Great to see you, Dan and Laura working their roof. I’ll be heading over to watch them as their vids up👍 the orange cake looks delicious, let us know if it tastes as good as it looks 🤩😋. Sorry to hear about your beautiful little ducklings 🐥 big hugs to you both 😢
Great job of the new pig house . Sorry about ducklings . Love that you all help each other out when needed . Looks like you having march winds like we are ..😊 first sunny day here for ages x
Oh, no! 😮 I am so sorry to hear about the ducklings. I just wanna compliment you again and how you have changed the intro to your videos. It’s so enjoyable. A big thank you for taking Dan and Laura under your wing as well. You and Ange are such splendid people. ❤️
Terrible Stormy weather,it was dangerous aswell for you Angie. I am sorry for the loss of the ducklings,must be a fox. Doesn't Max guard at night? He must have heard something.
Angie, next time turn the pan upside down put the the paper over it bend it to the shape of the pan, then turn the pan back to correct position and put the formed paper into the pan !!!!!
So very sorry for the ducklings. Now Wayne and Waynetta have their own duck Firt Knox, good work. The new pig house looks great, too. It'll be shelter to some lucky kune kunes sooner or later. Rascally boi escaper! 😄 You both really gave excellent examples of extreme gardening -- Ang planting in the fierce winds, Nick rototilling with mind-of-its-own tiller at a 55° angle! Gorgeous cake, Coukd nearly smell it 🍊! Hope you filmed you tucking into it with the clotted cream. Sad that wasn't added to the end of making it 😭.
oh my lovelies, im so sorry to hear you lost the ducklings the way you did especially since you fort to keep 2 going. nature is a beautiful thing but can also be so cruel at times. andrea to help with the greeseprrof paper once its cut to length if you screw it up as though you are going to throw it away, then undo it, you will find it lines the tins/trays better and your fighting less for it to keep its shape. the other thing is to put a small snip in the corners that again helps it hold its shape until you put in your mixture. i can''t believe i have just 11 more to go until im caught up with your releases of vlogs, one part of me will be glad but another part of me will be sad as i will have to wait a week between each one then. take care both of you xx
You two should have a weekly tv series., you are far more interesting than that dross on TV.I wonder why mainstream TV won't show your eco friendly, self sufficient ,soul enhancing lifestyle? Maybe because people will start climbing the mental prison walls. Well done you.👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌.
It is truly hard work running a small holding farm, you two remind me constantly of my growing up, with the effort my Mum and Dad put into our approx 10 acres, sorry to see your ducklings were taken it is always heartbreaking. Angela you had quite a battle with the duck enclosure and the wind. My Mum and Dad would have been very impressed with your pig houses too Nick. I thought however that screws had to go in the high ridge of the iron not the valleys to stop the roofs from leaking .
Nick and Andrea, it would be amazing to see some of your longer projects in one video, beginning to end. For Eg, the coolroom build ... . Homestead life always means doing what you can when you can, and so project completion in one week rarely possible. So sad about the ducklings 😢
