The epidemic destroyed all the pigs on the farm, I failed and suffered heavy losses 

That's tough. Been watching this channel for so long I feel like I've taken a loss. Plenty of supporters here that are rooting for you

I'm very sorry to hear that! But you should not give up on your endeavors! we will always remain here to support you!

I'm so sorry Duong. I've been watching you since your cliff shelter days, and it's difficult to watch you go through bad times. You will get through this, and you didn't fail. This epidemic wasn't something you can control, and is very difficult to prevent and treat. You gave your pigs the best life you could, you tried until they past. You work very hard and you definitely didn't fail. Keep your head up high and be proud of what you do.

Lime powder by itself doesn’t actually work against bacteria you need to mix it with water then spray or paint with the limewash. As for your chicken issue you might want to start building an actual enclosure for them as well as selling some of them to knock down their numbers as if they’re beginning to peck at your garden it means that they’re hungry and if they’re hungry it means that not everyone is getting enough to eat.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm feeling the loss that you are experiencing. I've been watching for a while now. When you were out, and your wife got the pigs for you she stated that you were so excited to have them to raise. You have accomplished so much more on your farm, and I truly enjoy watching what you are going to do every time I see a new video. Thank you for the awesome videos that you have been sharing with us all.

I'm so sorry you lost your pigs. It's hard to lose a friend, but with your family around you and your supporters to cheer you up, you will gradually heal. We are all here for you even if you can't see us❤❤❤❤

Duong I am so sorry for your loss. I know you loved your pigs. Sending love and best wishes for healing your pain.

My deepest condolences to you. You showed those pigs compassion and respect since you brought them to the farm, they would have never lived so sweetly anywhere else. You did everything you could do against impossible odds.

1) Pig pens should only house 1 pig per pen to prevent the spread of infection, which means more pig pens will need to be built. 2) A feeder for the chickens which they can eat from whenever they wish, to discourage them from going to the farm. 3) A tall brick, wood, or bamboo fence surrounding the entire farm to prevent unwanted animals or pests from entering and destroying the crops. Now is the biggest opportunity to learn as much as possible about what happened, and how to prevent things like it from happening again.

My condolences Duong. I know how much care you give to your farm animals. My heart weeps with you.

This is just one area of your farm. It has been a great success. It's very sad when we lose our animals but you're certainly not a failure!! ❤

Hi Duong. I am sorry for the loss of your pigs. It is like losing members of your family. It is good to be kind to yourself by cooking a very tasty meal. It builds up your body....but more than that it shows you the things you are doing that are thriving well on your farm. even the dying vegetables can help your fish to thrive. And the chicken was punished for destroying the garden. So there is Karma in the world. Perhaps if you plant a banana tree over the pigs grave you will grow the biggest bananas in the market. I hope so. I often watch your channel and admire your hard work and all of the very creative things you have built. You are very fortunate to have a farm where so many raw materials are close by. The running water, good fertile soil, the sand and rocks, the timber and the bamboo. What a marveloius resource bamboo is. It is a joy to watch how you select each tree to cut down according to the specific use to which you are putting it. And the use of your machete is highly skillful. Not once have I seen you cut yourself. You inspire me with my little projects as you inspire thousands of others around the world. You have fought many long battles and had many victories. And the things that have not gone right are teaching you about yourself and how to care for your mind and guard your heart from being crushed. You deserve all of your successes. We admire you greatly....and there are few greater rewards in life than the respect of other people. Glyn. Uk. 64 years. Wood and metal worker.

I'm so sorry to hear that you lost the pigs, Duong. African swine fever is a terrible disease, and there wasn't much anyone could do. We watched you do everything anyone could have done.

keep up your good spirits Duong🙌🏼 you are a good man👏🏼

I know you try do do everything in the primitive ways and we all appreciate that but sometimes it is good to call the Animal Doctor to visit the farm. If the Animal Doctor visit it could help to identify the problem maybe even give medicine to heal the animals [next time]. Only thing I can think is to keep them separate from the birds in the future.

wow very sorry for the loss,s 😢

So sad to hear what happened to the pigs. Im sure you have done your best to take care of them and tried your best to keep them alive but the epidemic is just too much. It's not only in Vietnam that they have it. I watched vloggers in my native Philippines and they had the same problem. Don't worry you still have the chickens and the fish to look after. Regards from Toronto Canada. I'm also a fan of your wife Huong. You guys are wonderful.

Boa noite... Sentimos a sua tristeza, mas não desista desse lugar maravilhoso que você criou... Estamos aqui querendo sua prosperidade e da sua fazenda... Força, ânimo e saúde abraço MICHAEL DE BRASILIA-BRAZIL 🇧🇷

I’m so sorry for your loss. All I can offer is my prayers to you and these words; please don’t give up hope. Don’t let this stop you from doing all the amazing things you do.

Lamento mucho que tus cerdos no hayan podido salvarse, se nota el cariño que tenes por todos tus animales y me imagino el dolor que estas sintiendo en estos momentos. Lo siento Duong. Un abrazo muy grande desde Argentina.-

Дуонг, нам грустно вместе с тобой. Береги себя, береги свою семью, береги своё хозяйство. У тебя всё будет хорошо! ❤

Me da mucha pena verte tan triste, siento lo que ha pasado tenías mucho cariño a los cerdos,los cuidabas con mucho esmero y delicadeza,solo puedes estar contento con todo lo que les has cuidado y protegido.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

During sad and difficult times, eat delicious food to refresh yourself. I think your farm is very beautiful.

Duong you took good care of the pigs and you could not stop diseases from getting to them. There are shots a vet could give that would stop some disease but nothing stops all diseases. I really am sorry you lost all the pigs and piglets. Please don't give up and try again. I have watched you since you first built the bamboo jut and started your first rice paddy when the bamboo hut caught fire you built a better home and them turned the rice paddy into a pond for your fish. The fish and chickens are thriving under you care and if you get more pigs I am sure you will get them to thrive as well. what's the old saying if at first you don't succeed try try again. Much hope and good wishes to you. Go visit your wife and kids and feel better.

Next time use goats they serve better for small farm…and they provide milk as well as keep weeds down small amount of fencing. pen in the free range chickens they are good vectors for disease. Other wise your doing just fine….as for vets it’s difficult to maintain health in jungle areas…not worth it in long run unless your selling animals. I know the chickens were caught but sell them away and move to ducks bonus they are cleaner since they use water and they can swim. The down can be used for bedding and eggs and meat are better and bigger…yes it’s slower but since your near water makes sense.

Sorry about your loss of the piggies Duong, I was not aware of the swine flu in vietnam, and did an internet search about it, very unfortunate there's not much you could have done, you took great care of the piggies they were just unfortunate.

Sorry about your pigs 😢😢

I am very sorry for the loss of your pigs and I accompany you in your sadness, because I know how carefully you took care of them. I immensely admire all of his work and you have been a great example for me. Thank you for all your teachings.

I've seen it happen to several people who raise pigs in the forest, believe me, it's not your fault. Try to find out how to make pigs immune to this plague and try again, everything will work out. You did your best, unfortunately the fate of pigs was not in your hands. Epidemics are cruel, but we learned to overcome them and remained victorious in our next attempts.You did a great job from the start .

Losing the pigs to such a terrible disease is devastating and we all know how you lovingly cared for them. They were so sweet. I have read where scientists are working on treatments and vaccines so hopefully there will soon be a cure and you will be able to raise a new litter of piglets. Just not now. Duong, there's always, always a better day just beyond our sight at the moment of our despair. On a brighter note, it looks like its time to harvest and preserve a boatload of fish! Talk about an achievement! The pond you've built and the care you have put into raising fish is astounding! And grow a bunch of Oregano for your chickens. It helps keep them healthy. Chickens are curious. Maybe you can find a way to hang a cabbage so they can peck at it. Keeping them interested in something might help keep them out of your garden,...though that's no guarantee. I pray comfort for you in your loss and may showers of blessings fill you with joy.

Don’t give up Duong, all your subscribers supports you in your sadness, we suffer with you. Hope that next try will be more successful

I'm so sorry that you've suffered such a loss. I know that you cared for the pigs greatly and did your best to prevent this problem. Maybe you could switch to raising goat's as they're less susceptible to swine flu than pigs, plus there's the added benefit of goat's milk. Also, maybe if you built a fence around the garden with a woven bamboo roof that might keep the chickens out. The bamboo roof couldn't be woven too tightly, of course, because of the garden's need for sunlight.

So sorry to hear this! Don't give up, keep trying!

I"M sorry to hear about the loss of your pigs, I know you loved them very much. I will pray that God will bless you with new ones so you can continue to provide for your family, please take care of yourself.

5:25 Известь на АЧС ни как не влияет. Нужно сжигать трупы и обжигать поверхности. 17:03 Обрежь им края перьев крыльев. Не смогут летать. 20:34 А может попробовать огородить грядки сетками из бамбука куполом. 32:16 И как вам медная тарелка в использовании? Столько сил и времени потрачено на свиней. Жаль. Самое главное сам не болей.

So sorry for the sad, sad loss of all your pigs Duong! 😭 I know a LOT of hard earned money, time, effort, love and care went into raising them so to see them all succumb to swine fever is a REALLY sad thing my friend! 😢 I would suggest, that if your chickens are damaging your garden however that you build a really large aviary (like a bird cage) one that is big enough to still have the chicken coup inside AND give them enough room to roam around freely?! That way, they are NOT caged chickens, they are STILL free range (able to roam around and be free) but they cannot get near your garden to ruin your crops?! 🤔

My wife and I look forward to both yours and your wife’s episodes. We are so impresses with both of you. Today we were so very sad to see your loss. Our heart goes out to you.

{Language FRENCH / FRANÇAIS} Bonjour DUONG, voilà, 2024, Je suis toujours là avec ma famille à vous suivre depuis la SUISSE (au centre du continent Europe) nous vous aimons beaucoup, vraiment vous êtes un vrai homme bon et nous vous souhaitons UNE BONNE ANNÉE à vous et toute votre famille. MERCI pour tout ce que vous nous partagez. On vous admire énormément. On vous aime

I’ve raised poultry and unfortunately suffered many chickens dying under my care. It can be very difficult to manage disease with animals. I often use to feel at fault for the chickens dying. It is always a difficult loss. That being said you are doing the best you can which I see the effort, love, and respect you have for the animals. You did your best. My prayers for you on your journey and all the creatures you care for! Blessings onto you.

Como lo ciento hes duro perder tus animales por el esfuerzo y cariño que pones en ellos de verdad espero Dios te traiga mejores tiempos para tu granja muchas bendiciones amigo desde costa rica te deseo lo mejor y fuerza para afrontar esto

I'm sorry about the pigs. You need to fence your entire vegetable garden to keep the chickens out. Tôi rất tiếc về lũ lợn. Bạn cần rào toàn bộ vườn rau của mình để ngăn gà vào.

صديقي لا تحزن فنحن المسلمون عندما ادخلت الخنازير الى المزرعه لم نعد نرغب بمشاهده الفيديوهات من الافضل ان تاتي بالماعز او الاغنام فهي مباركه ومحببه من الجميع ونتمنى لك التوفيق

Hi from Canada, I'm very sorry to hear that! Don't give up

I'm very sorry for what happened But please don't give up Pigs at your farm is wrong idea Please check another way to look for goats for example You could get from them milk and you could make some cheese as well.

Really Duong you could not have done better for your pigs. Everyone knows you gave love and care and even respect in their death. No one could have taken better care of them. You are a very good man and that is why I love this channel. Carry on and I hope you will not give up on raising pigs. Or other animals?

I'm sorry for the loss, brother.

I'm sorry about your loss, Those pigs were adorable

So sad for your loss.

На этой ферме больше нельзя выращивать свиней🥴 Свиней надо было сжечь 🔥Не падай духом, у тебя все наладится, ведь ты такой трудолюбивый и настоящий исследователь и творец! 🙏

Maybe build an aviary for the chickens so they won't get out and into everything. It might help. Build a solid wall with logs, make a mesh dome coming out the top with bamboo. Then cover the bottom of the wall with mortar so the chicks can't get through. The mesh will hold all the large chickens in. Put them in their coop at night like you usually do so when you go feed them in the morning they can't just rush the gate to get out.

I know some people will say its bad, but its actually quite common, and does not harm them, but maybe consider wing clipping the chicken rebels that are ruining your garden ? typically older chickens are not really good at flying, so it would not be necessary there. Sorry to hear about your pigs, best wishes Duong.

คุณจะผ่านมันไปได้ คุณเก่งอยู่แล้ว เพื่อนรัก

Sorry to hear about the pigs. I've been thinking about how they could have gotten infected, living in that enclosure. I recall long ago, before your wife got those pigs for you, you mentioned that there were wild hogs in the area since you found their tracks. Since you kept your pigs safe, and fed them good food, its very likely that they got infect through water- the source might have been infected up stream by the wild hogs, and then it got mixed in with pig food after it cooled down. It would be a lot of work, but a secure, covered well might become necessary if you ever chose to raise pigs at the farm again.

I’m so sorry about your pigs Duong. I know they meant a lot to you. African Swine Flu is deadly. There are many ways it can be carried to pigs, several out of our control. I am curious if other pig farmers in your area also lost pigs to this disease? So sorry again. At this point, do some research and learn as much as you can. A good farmer does not let failures stop him. Its ok to mourn your losses but do not let it stop you. This is just a step back or two. Move on and focus your attention on other areas of your farm that is doing well and on things that need your attention. You have made a great resource discovery in your small river! Is that a river, stream or creek?! Lol The copper you mined, processed and made that wonderful little bowl with was amazing! Look how much you learn in that little adventure! : ) I hope to see you mining more copper and casting more beautiful things! : ) You have a wealth of amazing talents and skills, truly very impressive for a young man your age! Look what all you have accomplished! Your farm has an wonderful amount of potential as a very productive farm. If you can’t have pigs, or at least not for now, thats ok. You have a lot of other awesome things! Make the most of them young man! And you have all of your followers and subscribers cheering you on! Now get after it! : )

Sorry, for the loss of your pigs 🐖 🐖🐖

So sorry to hear about the pigs - so sad. Have you considered putting a fish net on top of your fence to keep the chickens out? I've seen this done on other channels. I wish you success.

What you are doing is important. It gives people an opportunity to understand the lives of other people. That's only one of the many reasons that people support you and what you're doing. I can't speak for them, but four me, part of supporting you is listening to you. Not just during the good times but also in the hard times. I think it's OK to express your sadness and frustration. After all, If you're followers want to understand the lives of other people. They have to understand the good and the bad. Thanks for all your hard work.

I am so sorry for your loss, but it is not your fault. Do not feel like you have failed.

🇺🇸 Sorry for your loss. I want to personally thank you for all the videos you made. I have been watching you and that other guy in Australia for almost 5 years. You have accomplished something that only few a people can do alone. I hope you get to pass your knowledge to your kids. Do you think by clipping the chicken wings you can prevent them from flying? I was thinking the same thing eat the naughty chicken. That dinner looked so good.

Greetings, please accept my condolences. It is always difficult to experience the loss of what you have spent a lot of time and effort on. But you also need to look around you, you will see how much the place where you built the farm has changed! Perhaps it is worth building a large pen for chickens so that they do not spoil the garden. Or join your spouse in her project. Together, it will be easier for you to cope with the loss. Good luck to you.

Duong, build a cage/house in your garden. Build a cage over the plants so that the chickens can't get to your food

This saddens me. I was looking at information on the internet about swine flu. It looks like they normally die due to a secondary infection like staph. This is present on the pigs skin. If you experience this again maybe try washing the pigs with boiled water in addition to putting the lime down. Also changing their food trough could help stop this bacteria as well. You are an inspiration with all your efforts!

Oh my the despair 😥 maybe focus on the fish and the chickens for a while and let the sickness dissipate. We still watch your hard work and appreciate it too!

Duong, something my family used to do to keep wild birds off of crops was to put a fence around them, and then put a big net over the top like a roof. If you still have some string or thread you could maybe try that? The only problem is if the chickens get trapped in the net. You can also try clipping the chicken’s wings? If you cut the flight feathers on the tip of one wing, when they try to fly they can only fly in a circle. The downside of this is it will make it harder for them to escape any predators. But it would prevent them from being able to fly across the pond or fly over any fences you build to keep them out.

Hello Duong 👋🇨🇦 I’m so sorry about the pigs, it’s very sad loss but maybe be positive for a minute! Start anew!!! You are healthy and back at the Farm, begin fresh with some new piglets or goats or ducks. I think maybe you and wife deserve some time away, just you two, talk to each other how lucky you both are to have these Farms, your children, family and the THOUSANDS of us around the world who love and support you. 🤗❤️

So sad my friend. Stay strong keep going forward. We will still be here giving you our support.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Que Deus te dê força e resguarde teu coração, que vão os anéis e fiquem os dedos, muita força 💪 💪 💪

I am so sorry for your loss Duong. You have obviously cared very much for them. The virus is epidemic and its not your fault! Take care friend, you have a lot of support!

You need to cut back the chickens primary flight feathers to stop them flying over your garden fence. It's sad to hear of your pigs dying after all the work you had put into keeping them.

Lovely, I love the stone work,

So very sad but there was nothing you could do...you didn't fail. I hope that the epidemic passes quickly and perhaps you could try to raise pigs again. Yes, it must feel very empty for you. Please take care of yourself.

Hello Duong, I'm very sorry for your losses, but I want to provide you with some guidance on how to prevent ASP/ASF from affecting your pigs. First, please note that lime does not prevent the spread of the ASP/ASF virus. What you need is a thorough disinfection of the area using sodium hypochlorite, which can effectively eliminate the virus in the barn. Using only lime will not prevent a recurrence if you decide to get new pigs. I truly hope this information is helpful to you and wish you the best of luck and good health!

Співчуваю тобі через втрату поросят. Ти отримав життєвий досвід, напевно вистачить курей, риби, овочів і фруктів. А головне - сім"я: жінка і діти!!! ❤

Not failure learn from this Duong much sadness over come do differently be safe many prayers 🙏🙏 glad for bowl casting 🎉🎉❤❤

猪猪的离世，真让人痛心，也希望你不要过度悲伤。走出来，向前走，相信往后一定会越来越好。加油，真心的祝愿你一切都好❤❤ 9:52

My dear Doung I'm so sorry you lost all your pigs is a tremendous loss but I pray and hope that is just a little down moments we all have in life remember everything happens for a reason you have a lot of plantation to take care of and get it protected from naughty chickens , I've been watching your videos from the very beginning when you was first in the cave a stone for axe and the very first blue shirt you was still so young around 5 years or 6 memory is failing me 😂😂😂😂 but I love you so much and I will always give you my unconditional support to you and Hoáng ❤ take deep breath we will always wait for your next video ❤

I am very sad with you for the loss of your animals. I hope this helps you buy new pigs. Don't give up!

May they rest in peace. Everything I've read about African Swine Fever has said that we currently have no cure for it, and that it is very often fatal. I am sorry it took your herd from you. But, you have proven, time and again, that you are resourceful, intelligent, and dedicated. I think you will rise above this setback and emerge victorious in the end. This wasn't six months resulting in failure; it was six months of learning. Your herd grew under your care; you had five strong and healthy piglets born to you. Next time, it will take a year or more, but you will succeed. Clean up the pig pen. Sterilize it as well as you can. Remember to spread lime in the thatch above the pens, too. If need be, consider even moving all of it completely, and then try again. It's only a failure if you give up.

Sorry this happened but you can create a new opportunity from your tragedy. You can use the hog pen to plant any kind of fruit trees you can find locally. The enriched soil in the pen will cause the trees to grow extremely fast. You can ALWAYS build a new pen In a new location later if you get more hogs. It's a great way to start an orchard.

I'm very sorry that you've lost your pigs. You always treated them very kindly, I appreciate that. I think you've earned a good meal and you're meal looks delicious. I'm from the United States and when someone here earns a good meal we call it "comfort food".

sorry for your loss, it unfortunately is part of life and farming not all crops get to harvest so this is not your failure just something you have to deal with . in future if it were me i would only have 2 pigs more as pets than for meat . pets with jobs though you have a lot of growth that needs dealing with and pigs rooting around fits that bill. as well as fertilizing the soil. again if it were me i would work on the infrastructure... water pipe fixed wheel sawmill lathe blowers and stampmill ... that should set you up for materials production from making charcoal to brick to pots to metal to drying food which should give you more time to spend on the animals, thanks for the videos

I enjoy your videos very much .your meal looked delicious!

Sorry for your loss. It’s a helpless feeling. As for the chickens, could you build a large chicken pen that had a top to keep them contained so they don’t get into your vegetable garden? It might be worth the extra work. Thank you for your videos and all the work you do.

Sometimes bad things happen and no one can prevent it. We all know that you take good care of your animals. So at least the pigs had a good life at your farm. The way you deal with this hard loss is good. You will heal over time and there will be good things happening again. And may be even new littles piglets to take care of!

So sorry for your lost.😢😢😢

So sorry to hear this! Praying blessings over you! 🙏

I’m sorry you had such a painful setback. As someone raising chickens and turkeys, we learned early that livestock also means death stock from time to time. It’s never easy losing your investment but it’s harder when they’re lives you’ve fostered. I’ve often said pets teach us to love, lose, mourn, and love again. Livestock are pets, in a way, even when they’re destined for the plate. We love them in how we treat them until that one bad day. Then we praise them for nourishing us.

I have a 10 foot fence to keep my chickens out.

Devastating my friend. You have no idea of how much an inspiration you are to me Duong. I know you will get through this, especially with all us of your youtube family behind you. Keep going my friend.

You clearly loved caring for the pigs. They were a thoughtful present and you enjoyed each other's company while it lasted.

So sorry to see this has happened, my thoughts and prayers go out to you at this time

Sorry for the loss Duong you did all you could

Nice vidéo 👌👌😋😋💪💪

Sorry to hear its very tough to loose our pets be strong and continue yuor hard work we our with you

맛있게 드시고 힘내세요~~~
