We’re just getting into making videos of our family farm. You can also follow us on Facebook and Instagram at StolenWillowFarm. Stay tuned for more fun things that we do. We really love our animals and have LOTS! Goats, chickens, guineas, dogs and a turtle. We’re growing our own meat chickens and turkeys. We have cows coming hopefully this fall (2023) and pigs in the near future. We also have a houseful of different critters. Please like and share our page.

It's earlier than we wanted but we needed to move the Sonni in with the girls. If it takes we are looking at the beginning of March.

But they contribute to global warming 😮
If you believe a beef cow rotationally grazed on pasture contributes to global warming, your data is flawed. Beef cattle in stock yards that are fed grain and never see grass are an issue for CO2 and methane in the atmosphere. The average human has a daily carbon footprint greater than a cow on pasture.
A lush, fresh patch of new grub! Wahoo!
Awesome!!! I would love one
The Vevor is a big design improvement over the cheap imports.

I’m not understanding the bird house. Where does the bird land? How do you hang it? Mount it?
This was just a video demonstrating the ryobi nailer. The house itself was built with the nailer and other things were added to complete the house-landing pad, decor, etc. you can hang this style house multiple ways. The main way I hang them is taking my ryobi screw driver with long screws and use the hole where the bird goes into the house and secure it to a tree or post.
At first he' s like "hey ladies" as they run from him....lol
😮 Appalling Lack of Safety displayed when working around a very heavily strained winch cable. The guy that "owns" the trailer has near no regard for how that cable, or for that matter the snatch block being used, could potentially decapitate him, if hook broke or cable snapped. Looked like the winch control was not via a remote control to enable one to stand back a safe distance from the cable and snatch block. I have seen the results of an old snatch block failing. Sheeve pivot pin broke, and pully went, not just through rear window of towing vehicle, BUT then through front windscreen; after making quite a mess of steering wheel it clipped on way though vehicle. Just because you have "got away alive and uninjured" every time you have done some task, does not mean this time you won't get injured or worse kill someone else near by.
Correction to my above comment. After relooking at video, I do find it difficult to tell whom is working winch, as camera does not clearly show that end of trailer. One gent may have a remote control. However my point above still applies. That winch cable is heavily loaded, and I certainly dont see the level of caution around it, +50years of training and work has taught me to have and maintain.
@@davidbroadbent2529 We had nothing to do with the gentleman picking up the dozer. It was his trailer and he did have a remote for it. Thanks for the concern, all was well.
Nice sharing ❤ Pakistan 🇵🇰 Yasmeen village ❤
How many males and females?
2 and 2.
Excellent 🇬🇧
Your cows are definitely at the fuzzy bear stage lol
I think winter is coming.
Yea dog there’s flow yea dog

I haven’t forgotten, I just need to find my plans. I have premade templates that I just use.
OMG!!! Too cute!!!❤️💜💚💙
Awesome!!!! She did very well.
Beautiful
Awesome!!!!! Congrats yall!!! 🎉
Do you at least have two pastures to give the land time to grow? I can't remember
Yes, this pasture will be divided into 6 paddocks and those will be subdivided for rotational grazing.
Soooo cute!!!!❤️
Thank you for sharing your wonderful view!!!
Looks and sounds delicious! Fellow Michigander saying hi!
Hey fellow Michigander! Thanks and it is delish!
I basically do everything you do and I use the exact same culture and rent it that you do but the steering process to go from start to finish to the 100° mark I do in approximately 30 minutes put it in the press and I'm done let it press one day let it dry the next day seal it and put it in the cheesecake
Love the soothing tones of your voice, simple steps, and nice music! Will make this cheese next as my second hard goats cheese. The first was a nice Gouda. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Have a wonderfully blessed day.
I was stuck between this or the Milwaukee pin nailer. I like Milwaukee products but they are pricey I think I’m going with this. Thank you awesome video.
You’re welcome! This was my first time ever using one and I use it all the time now. It’s easy to use and makes jobs so much easier! We used this to also build out goat walls in the barn. Thanks for watching the video and commenting! Have a great evening. 😊
Be careful with those Brad nailers. If not shot properly you will get a nasty injection into a finger. Those nails have a chisel end that follows the wood's growth rings if not turned right angles to those rings. 1.5" is a bit too long. 1.25" is more then enough for 3/ 4 thick stock..If you get shot by one, the 1.25" will not go as far into your fingers using 3/4 thick wood. I saw a close call in this video when nailing the top on. I have used these nailers for 30 plus years. I have seen those Brad nails make some very interesting turns in the wood to come out where a finger may be.They seem to "know" .So keep those fingers well away from any possible exit points that the Brad nail could get you at. Think and take your time nailing. Skewering a finger bone isnt fun, or good. Make sure your tetanus shots are up to date..I think it's every 10 years...not sure.
Thanks for the concern and tips. I am careful and cautious when using power tools of any sort. You may have seen a moment that was concerning to you and I appreciate the care and concern. I have since used this thing a million times and am comfortable with it but I also respect tools. I never become complacent in regards to them and my safety and the safety of others. So much so that I probably drive my husband crazy about it. 😊 thanks for watching our video and commenting. Hope you have a wonderful day! 💜
Just bought myself one of these by Ridgid. Thanks for the fun little video, you've given me some project ideas!
Uh huh🌸
Hiiiii
Great video! We have high production dairy goats (Lamanchas) so I’ve been looking into making some hard cheeses. I’ll ask my husband to build us a cheese press too 🥰 thanks again for the great content! I’ll be referring back to your video in the future
You’re welcome! Thanks for checking out the video. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Where at in midland mi
Man those curds looks so tasty!!! Well done 👏
Yes, we need show to not eat all the curds video!
Great video! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊

You might try the old iron bridge south of town.
Thanks for the tip!
We just had our first taste of raw goats milk last week from a neighbor. WE ARE HOOKED! So,now that we will be getting goats milk on a regular basis I want to try to make lovely cheeses out of it. This looks AMAZING! Thank you!🙂 I AM SUBBED FOR SURE!
Very good flight ✈️ shots please add me
Do you leave the heat off once you have salted and stir the curd every 15mins for an hour? Is it just sitting on the stove? Or are you using heat?
For this recipe I don't cook the curds after salting but they should stay warm. Not more than 98 degrees but not less than 80. So if you need to add some heat you can just be careful not to get it too hot.
Great video,thank you for your efforts
I wonder if the curd stirring can be a slow horizontal tumbler my grandkids just moved in with me. they will get a kick out of making cheese from our two goats arriving in spring.
I've seem people use an electric pot stirrer, but it has to fit the pot so all the curd gets stirred.
Crazy seeing the water go up that fast.. in just a 16 min video
Interesting video, thank you for sharing. You are gluing and nailing now you will not be able to clean it. When I make my Bluebird house and other houses the bottom is made to slide out, the top is made to swing to the side. Now it is very easy and quick for cleaning. Another benefit is we can move the top to the side look in seeing if anyone is building their nest. Looking at the eggs we can tell the type of bird. FYI: Always mount the camera; tripods are very inexpensive. A subject may move about, but never the camera. Watching a bouncy video is very annoying and spatially disconcerting, making it difficult focusing on what you want your views looking at. Truly hope that suggestion will improve your next video.
Thanks for the feedback. It was an impromptu video and we actually have a gimball that I typically use for filming myself and or the events around the farm. My husband was filming just trying to capture and was doing his best. It’s hard for him to hold onto the phone, etc.
@@StolenWillowFarm Thank you for your polite reply. Please notice on Bluebird house plans the food slants towards the entry hole not towards the back. Yours, the entry hole is actually on the back of the house not the front. Easy fix cover the hole drill hole on the front. Also, the top should extend over the front, however you glued and nailed, so consider adding another piece to the top extending out over the entry hole; check the plans. Bluebirds can be quite finicky about the homes they choose. Truly, I wish you folks well with your houses, hope you have many pairs. We certainly enjoy seeing ours. Sometimes Chickadees nest in ours. We also use the RYOBI tools. Very impressed with the 18 gauge nailer, amazing tool. Cordially and respectfully submitted.
very nice video and re-assuringly explained. My only question is: after distilling 2 gallons of goat milk, how many of pounds of cheese did in result in? thank you so much for taking the time to make this video .
About 2 pounds
Where can I buy a thermometer like the one you use?
www.webstaurantstore.com/taylor-1470fs-digital-cooking-thermometer-and-kitchen-timer/913HLA1.html I like it because of the silicone probe
Are you realy use 2 gallon (+/- 8 Ltr.) of goatmilk or are you used 4 gal. The package stiker said one pack is good for 4 gallon fresh or 2 gal pastorizied milk. What came out of 2 gal looks way less than yours only 764 gramm of little wet cheese curd and with only 2 tbs instead of 4tbs of salt it tasts verry salty
everything would make more sense if you used 4 Gallon of Goat milk
I used 2 gallons of unpasteurized goat milk. I've never tried, but have heard pasteurized goat milk won't work to make cheese because curds don't form. I also used liquid animal rennet.
What temperatur masurment are you useing Farenheit or Celsius ??
Fahrenheit
@@StolenWillowFarm Thank you will try to make that cheese today
Watching you stir the milk is giving me anxiety because your pot is so full 🤣
I usually don't fill my pot that full, lol. But when I do, I always have cleanup after.
Can I use frozen raw goats milk?
I've never tried it. Goat milk is very fragile so my guess is getting curds would be tough.
I've heard from my cheese group on FB that freezing goats milk and using it for cheese later doesn't affect it as much as it does cows milk (thanks to the higher fat content :) )
I would like to try this, too for cheese. If I thaw raw goats milk sitting out, it tends to separate into flakes of I think butter, so I thaw it in warm water and no bits of butter. 😃
That horizontal curd cutter is ingenious! Now, I just need to order a cheese press! Nice video
It was easy to make. I also made my press from plans of the internet
@@StolenWillowFarm Can you share how you made the horizontal cutter?
@@ireneroyal3584 It's made from 1.5mm brass rod cut to the length that worked for me. I laid it out on a piece of scrap plywood and used silver solder to solder the joints.
@@StolenWillowFarm you should market this cutter! I would buy one or two. My wooden harp that I special ordered from Canada doesn’t work. It just sits in my drawer. I have looked for a metal one with no luck.
Thank you for de-mystifying the making of hard cheese. We have dairy goats and I’ve made simple soft cheeses -now want to progress to harder aged cheeses. Great video.
You all prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Noah Jaziel Instablaster =)
Just found your channel. See that you haven't posted since the spring, hope to see more!
