Yeah Kevin,.....it is hard to find good help these days!!! (Ha!Ha!) The Kittens were like,.....this video should be all about us,.....look at how cute we are!!!
Hi Clay family.. I see the Kitten 😸🐾 wants to help you and Kevin out today... You guys did a Great job.. Putting that up just the 2 of you'd .God bless your family 💞
Interested process on replacing + hanging the new barn curtain! The kittens just love the farm + exploring. Always nice to see great progress made + cool to see more new baby calves!
Nice team work as always You two! Thank you for sharing & doing your part to feed a hungry world!! God Bless your family & please farm safely every day.
old millwright trick, drill the holes where you need them undersized a little for the lag, start the eye bolt, chuck up the eyebolt in the drill and turn it right in, splice a 1x on the end and it shouldn't split out
I felt bad for you and Kevin having to struggle with that by yourselves, as usual, you got the job done, I guess that's the important thing, I imagine you're both very relieved to put that in the " done" locker, great video
Hey Arces of Clay Family!👋 Was going to ask if f the curtain is permanent or does it have a control button/switch that makes I go up and down or open and shut? Hope y'all arr haveing a great week! Be safe and always blessed! 😆❤👍
Another nice job done. I think y'all will agree though that you could have used another set of hands - or 6 😅. That wind didn't seem to help the situation either. But the two of you worked well together, got'r done and made it look easy. Thanks for another great video.
Good job impressing Rhonda by carrying the roll of curtain by yourself Kevin. It's obvious she still thinks you're the hunk you were the day you got married. 💪👍
I don't know about your winters when you get snow or a storm. But here on Cape Cod when we get a winter storm it's associated with high winds. If you get winds like we do. Do you run a length of rope across the middle to help keep the curtain from turning into a balloon? That storm we had last week was a hum dinger. It had 70-100 mph winds. It caused a lot of tree damage and power outages. What's ironic about that storm is that it fell on the 30th anniversary of The Perfect storm.
Ya'll always make dairy farming very educational and entertaining!🐄🐄🐂👍👀...Survival on thin margins...like reusing/moving the upper curtain to the other side of the barn must have met with the cows approval...as they seemed to start voicing their app"mooo"val when you told us the plan....lol...I'm sure they'll enjoy having those winds/snow kept out of their "house" for the winter! Kevin, Ronda and family... a Thank Ya'll, as always, for dairy farmin' and feedin'! Keep on keepin' on.....👀🤠🐄🐄🐄🚜🌄🍨🥛🍶🍦👍
I HAVE PUT THEM CURTAINS UP BEFORE. MY GRANDSON WHO IS 7 STILL WANTS TO KNOW IF YOU MAKE CHOCOLATE MILK AND WANTS TO SEE THE MILKING MACHINES IN ACTION.
Also: I'm getting a lot of commercial breaks the latest videos. I understand you and YT need to make money... But it's getting aggressive advertising now. Did you change your settings?
Why you use plastic curtains? Again with the plastics in the USA. You guys sure are behind on environmental friendly materials. In Europe we use natural products or, even better, old trailer curtains. They have steel wires inside them and can stand the strong ocean winds here in The Netherlands. Also: hennep is a great material, strong vibers/fibers. Nice barn, made of wood and metal walls, all recycleble (excuse spelling), and the plastic curtains?!? I don't get it...
its so funny too watch the kittens play in fast motion
Good Morning Baby Cow. They are Precious and Like 👍 to hang close to Mama Cow. 😬👍
Yeah Kevin,.....it is hard to find good help these days!!! (Ha!Ha!) The Kittens were like,.....this video should be all about us,.....look at how cute we are!!!
Farmers are so resourceful. I bet both of your fathers were very smart also !!!

Well Rhonda it must be very nice having a capable guy to hang your curtains with! I know he appreciates having a pretty assistant too!
Them dumb cats was runnin around everywhere, that was funny.
Those cats are doing a good job of overseeing this project.
beautiful new born calves # the one female calf appears black Angus & the mom is Holstein ?
Actually the calf is a Holstein/Jersey cross. Has a little white on his belly. 😊
Thanks for letting us hang around with you, but I guess it's curtains for this video. :)
Nice team work as always You two! Thank you for sharing & doing your part to feed a hungry world!! God Bless your family & please farm safely every day.
Jippii and wow. Great job, and awesome video again. More such videos, I do look at them all. Greetings from Finland.
Great Video. Y'all have a very blessed evening
I watched this video with my wife sitting in the room with me and now we're changing our curtains in the house this weekend. Thank you Acres of Clay 😂
New curtains for the win!! 😁😅
😂😂
Nice to see the two of you having some alone time.
U have great crops love watching ur show still praying for ur family
You two are cute to watch. Good description of the work but I get a kick too out of the little romance flickers from Kevin. Good man!
Nobody played with the cats before working. Was there meowing.
old millwright trick, drill the holes where you need them undersized a little for the lag, start the eye bolt, chuck up the eyebolt in the drill and turn it right in, splice a 1x on the end and it shouldn't split out
Interesting video.
Nice job you two looking good 👍
You guys are so smart and frugal. All a part of good stewardship. Totally amazing.
very true
Team work awesome job
Thanks for sharing
The cow's will appreciate the new curtain for sure
Always NICE to see you and your video. Have a great week end!
I know those animals are going to thank you when that cold wind starts blowing through there.
I have been wandering who was the lucky one in this relationship. Pretty sure you both came out winners
Team work makes the dream work! Nice job folks! Cats love having a project outside in the sun. 😀
lookin good!...thanks 4 video. be kind.
good job...feels warmer already
Nice day Ronda
It is good to prepare early for winter
That looks like some good tough material. Long lasting. Maybe the same material they use on chicken houses up north from me. God bless you guys
We have matching hats 💚😆
Love that hat!
Thank you Rhonda and Kevin always great post blessings from NZ
Use a 3/8" 90degree Allen wrench in a drill. to screw in eye bolts.
Very interesting video thanks for your time to do the video showing use what you have to do on your farm for your cows
Cats, cats everywhere! Not one of them lifting a paw to help.
You still go girl because you can do it. I know you can
Nice👍👍👍
Who ever knew the Cows would need the Privacy and also used Curtains on the Farm. 😬👍
Great job young man! On my curtains I used swivel pulleys.👌🙂
Looking good be safe
Your awesome Ronda! Great 👍 job on the video and your project at hand, the weather looks good for now, love your videos guys be safe and God bless
great job!!!
Love it
Nice video thanks
Thanks for sharing, I was wondering how this was done ✅
Always used electrical conduit glued for the bottom, but I like your metal for the weight. Thanks for the video and have a blessed weekend 🙏
I felt bad for you and Kevin having to struggle with that by yourselves, as usual, you got the job done, I guess that's the important thing, I imagine you're both very relieved to put that in the " done" locker, great video
The price of lumber is insane.
Please don't scare me like that lol. I thought you were really hanging it up👍👍

Rhonda it should work great when you get it done. Take care and have a blessed weekend and I'll see you on your next vidja.
Good job Ronda and Kevin:):)
@(4:40) ya, the threads are for taking them out...lol
Good job impressing Rhonda by carrying the roll of curtain by yourself Kevin. It's obvious she still thinks you're the hunk you were the day you got married. 💪👍
23 years today! ❤
@@acresofclayhomestead Congratulations and happy anniversary!🥳
So it "curtains" for you cows. Love the recycling (penning pinching) things you do.
Thank you for the video friendly duo of farmers ! Good weekend !
boy if that title wasn't click bait-i don't know what isn't then. jeepers!
I can remember getting the barn ready for winter in upstate newyork.I likes even more taking it down in the spring.Excellent videos
Hey Kevin, why don't you bounce the ladder like Ethan does LOL. You also have a really pretty helper
He's a very lucky guy!!
I was thinking when Kevin was going up and down the ladder that he needs to learn Ethan's trick for moving a ladder. 😂
Nice work
Y’all are doing a wonderful job I’m going to milk the moomoos with Mackenzie and my self love yaw as always
Great vid!
really enjoy your videos love seeing kevin work on motors he is very talent and smart love from indpls,Indiana
Batten the hatches
fun fun lol!
Good with curtain
Hi Rhonda
“Let’s Go Brandon”
what company did you buy your barn curtains from I need new barn curtains too
We buy from a local supplier called Sikkema Equipment.
👍🙂
Good explanation and reuse of boards. How many years can you expect a curtain to last ?
The last curtains lasted 25 years.
@@acresofclayhomestead wow 😳
Hi Rhonda and Kevin! I know screws are expensive ,but would it be better to be able to re-use them and not have to grind off nail heads?
hello nice to hire from you finish harwesting yet
Should be finished today. 😃
Are curtains hung all the way round the building or only on the prevailing wind side 🤔 good video 👍
Ronda
When both curtains are down does it get warm inside the barn for the Moo Moos?
It's stays warm and keeps the wind and snow/rain out. 😊
Lol got to keep it cozy for the Moo Moos 😊
I would like to know where you get the curtain material
Local supplier, Sikkema Equipment.
I don't know about your winters when you get snow or a storm. But here on Cape Cod when we get a winter storm it's associated with high winds. If you get winds like we do. Do you run a length of rope across the middle to help keep the curtain from turning into a balloon? That storm we had last week was a hum dinger. It had 70-100 mph winds. It caused a lot of tree damage and power outages. What's ironic about that storm is that it fell on the 30th anniversary of The Perfect storm.
We normally don't get winds that strong, but yes we do run a rope for wind.
Holstein cow what kind of built ,to get that color calves?
How thick is that material.how long will it last or do have to replace ever year?
It's 10 oz plastic.
Ya'll always make dairy farming very educational and entertaining!🐄🐄🐂👍👀...Survival on thin margins...like reusing/moving the upper curtain to the other side of the barn must have met with the cows approval...as they seemed to start voicing their app"mooo"val when you told us the plan....lol...I'm sure they'll enjoy having those winds/snow kept out of their "house" for the winter!
Kevin, Ronda and family... a Thank Ya'll, as always, for dairy farmin' and feedin'! Keep on keepin' on.....👀🤠🐄🐄🐄🚜🌄🍨🥛🍶🍦👍
Kevin and Ethan did not go to the same school of "ladder moving."
Lol! True!!
I think age plays into it
👍👏👏👏
I HAVE PUT THEM CURTAINS UP BEFORE. MY GRANDSON WHO IS 7 STILL WANTS TO KNOW IF YOU MAKE CHOCOLATE MILK AND WANTS TO SEE THE MILKING MACHINES IN ACTION.
I will show milking again soon. 😊
@@acresofclayhomestead THANK YOU
@@acresofclayhomestead Get some shots of the chocolate milk cows too!
How many years can you get out of curtain
Good for another 25 years or more.
Not something one would want to do with a 40 mph wind blowing
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👀👀👀☕️☕️☕️👋👋👋🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Also: I'm getting a lot of commercial breaks the latest videos. I understand you and YT need to make money... But it's getting aggressive advertising now. Did you change your settings?
How can I buy 3 yr home made hats?
Here's the link to my store.

Nice barn, made of wood and metal walls, all recycleble (excuse spelling), and the plastic curtains?!? I don't get it...
Do you put one more curtain on the ends so that the wind doesn't blow away?
We will put up an envelope to protect the ends.
@@acresofclayhomestead I am asking this because I saw such curtains without these endings and they were cracked.
