***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out new videos every week! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

Thank God for tracktors. A miracle. Sounds like a tornado .
I sm so sorry guys. Thank the Lord none of the animals were injured. What a mess. Remember God is Good.
Babe is so pretty. So happy she's bred.
I'm so glad none of your animals were hurt!
Glad no animals were harmed and that you are all safe.
Glad to see that the quail are loving their new coop!
Tex is beautiful. Hope you get another bull as friendly and good as him.
Glad no animals got hurt with that storm and that the damage was not too bad and was fixable.
Glad no animals were harmed
Thankfully no one was injured! God bless you and yours!
This is why you want to anchor your metal buildings and hoop coops. Use cheap RV anchors.
You experienced tornado wind, lucky that the wind didnot get into a real tornado.
My gosh tex is such a beautiful boy 💗💗
I'm amazed the chickens and ducks didn't get blown away!
Get trampoline anchors to anchor them down
You guys need to follow Ryan Hall Ya’ll. He’s great and is pretty spot on with the weather.
Glad you guys are okay ❤
Adjustments to worst case scenarios sometimes crop up. Glad none of the birds were harmed.
I so admire you guys. God bless you and your family.
Your cattle are so beautiful and healthy. I like how at peace they are with you. Poor beautiful bull. That's what he gets for doing his job well. I do understand why you need to sell him. He looks about three times the size of your Jersey but she's still walking around unbroken! She looks great, too. I can't wait to see what that cross looks like. Whatever kind of grass you have surely agrees with bovines. Thank you for caring about the quality of life for your quail. They used to run from you and now it doesn't bother them when you're in the cage. Maybe you should change your name to Peaceful Valley Homestead. 😉
Above all God protected all your birds. 😢 so sorry you experienced that storm and destruction.
Surprised the animals weren’t blown away with the winds. Great hooking the hoop coups to the ground. Keep your fowl safe. The cows look great.
Always awesome and enjoyable!
Glad nobody was hurt.
Thank you Lord for keeping everyone safe! That's too bad about the duck hut, but glad that there's available material still there. I'm excited about the quail hoop coop. I'm going to start raising quail again as soon as disability backpay comes. God has been answering my questions so boldly on my "mission", and your hoop coop build was one of them!🤗 I was planning on just having them in my garden shed, it's a 16x12? in dbl stacked pens to start but I wasn't happy about doing it that way, I want happy birds. I'm going to have to to start, but they should only be in there till spring, so that has worked itself out for winter. *another blessing in disguise❤🔥But I just didn't have quite enough space for the number of birds I needed to start. Then literally the next day there was your video straight at the top of my TH-cam homepage lol! (These kind of things have been crazy, like wow crazy.🙏) I have the perfect spot beside my shed, I had considered putting one there but no idea of what , or if I even could on the strict budget I have, the video was a godsend. I've been researching everything quail since january. Last time I raised them I just did a batch off 114eggs (86h) & sold them at 7/8 weeks at auction. Just for fun & to see what they were like. Now i'm business. I could tell you my whole story but for now haha...all I wanted was to let you know you had a gimpy quail (in case you didn't notice her) she's in the video and comes up to the feeder to the left of kevin (his right). In case you wanna check her out, I know I would lol, hope it's nothing.🙂 Thank you for sharing these videos, I learn so much from you guys! Hope you're having a great week! *bye
Glad the animals were all OK.
What a shame. And wood is so expensive. Glad everyone is ok. And everything is repairable
Keeping you all in my prayers.
glad you and your family and animals are doing good and made It throught the Labor Day storm there's a saying that when a storm comes through comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb
Tough they were anchored down ...
The extra weight in the base of the quail avery is what held it down in those crazy wind gusts! So glad there was not extra damage on the farm.
That's crazzee. God bless you and your property. Thank you for all of your content.
I enjoy sitting on my porch and watching the storms roll in, and I always think of you guys as it passes, knowing it's on its way to you.
Storms come out of somewhere. Reality! 4 concrete corner tie-downs 2 feet deep will hold down everything next time.
Sounds like a micro burst!
Someone mentioned using trampoline tie downs and I think it's a very good idea.
🌺So thankful all of you are ok and the animals are too, could have been way worse!
Morning! Right idea with the paracord, but there is a better way to anchor the coops. We have done this here in Florida and it works! You want to tie your cord at the base of the anchor, and then cross it over to the opposite side, making an X across the coop. So far, outs has made it though 2 hurricanes, and we only got 1 tear in the plastic and that was from a tree branch, not the wind. It's actually neat and yikes to watch the wind lift up the plastic, but the X holds it in place during the gusts. Ours is much bigger, so we have 3-X's across ours.
I copied his plan for the hoop coop some time back and anchored it with 4 T-posts. Using heavy duty cord, I tied it down across both ends adding the X pattern on top. Using the A(left) and B(right) for the front posts then C(l) and D(r) for the back posts, the tying pattern is A-B-C-D-A. So far, no problems, even though we have high winds often. 😊
Glad everyone safe. Love your cows
A really good video from the Living Traditions Homestead. Thanks and God bless you until the next time 🙏
So thankful you are safe and that you didn’t have any more damage. As always, enjoyed your video. Take Care and be safe.
So sorry about the frozen pipes. Glad they thawed quickly. Woke up to no heat Tuesday because the drain on the natural gas heater was frozen. Incorrectly installed by the sellers/flippers. Now I know why I followed my instincts & stayed this winter. Monett was -6 below & -20 windchill. Stay warm neighbors. Warmup coming our way. 🙏💙
I'm glad everyone is safe.
A trucker's hitch would have been perfect for tensioning the paracord.
Oh no! 😮 Glad you were safe during the storm. Building structures can be rebuilt..... Body structures can't!
Behind a bit watching.. So THANKFUL NO other damage was Done on the Homestead, Kevin & Sarah..Great idea about tie downs on them Now. CONGRATULATIONS, On Babe being Breed. I'll be Watching and waiting for that New Baby! The Cows & Tex ALL look so BEAUTIFUL & Healthy..Polled Herefords (white face) were My Dad's favorite and what I grew Up around...I'm Glad You Chose Not to breed Him with the daughters..He has Been a True Blessing to Giving You Girls to increase your Herd.. And what a Blessing You are To so MANY, for Blessing a Family with Rose but TO Be Able to Watch You All these Years and I LOVE that You do share the Good Bad or Otherwise. I DO BELIEVE THAT IS Why Your Channel Continues to Grow & IT BLESSES Me that YOU ARE IN WONDERFUL & BEAUTIFUL MO like I Am..GOD BLESS & TAKE CARE. Truly Love watching you Both & Whatever You Do...
Tex is one big handsome boy! He has done a good job for you. I will miss Rose and i know kevin really will miss her but its a blessing that she is going to a family you know and im sure they will give you updates along the way.
Oh no!!! So sorry, but everyone is safe. Praise God! Good idea to ⚓️ to ground.
We live in a high wind area near the ocean
My husband uses pool noodles or pipe insulation to protect the tarp from the cord rubbing the tarp.
You need to follow fellow youtuber RyanHall. i no longer watch ANY other weather media at all. glad you are safe
I agree! Ryan Hall Y’all’’ is the main source I use. I’m an hour away from you folks, on Bull Shoals.
Absolutely! He’s the best!
Our weather is controlled a lot now by weather modification companies. Maybe he has an inside as to what they r doing. Look up cloud seeding and weather modification
@@vahlla78 I believe you are right. The tech has been available for decades now. Just recently bill gates said he would be seeding the atmosphere to lessen the suns intensity 🙄 and no one in ‘power’ has any rebuttal to his crazy claims.. so yes, our weather is being manipulated and messed with.
@@vahlla78and chem trails.
Someone is gonna get an awesome bull!
Oh how I love Tex. ❤️
So sorry that this happened, but so glad you and your animals are all safe.
The quail hoop coop may have stayed down better because it had the weight of the flooring to help it. I noticed one of your little quail was limping. I hope it is ok. ❤
So happy that the storm wasn't any worse for you, altho having to repair stuff is never fun. Take care and God's Blessings.
You know that same storm ripped through our property too. We are in the midlands of SC. My children were outside getting their afternoon chores done when that wind picked up. My 14 yr old daughter came in the house because she was afraid. I told her she could wait till the wind died down but she would probably get rained on. She decided to endure the wind instead of the rain. While she was out there she said a prayer to God asking him to help her with her fear. As soon as she ended her prayer she looked up and seen her slightly younger brother running to help her finish her chores❤ What a wonderful testimony.
The storm did just come out of nowhere though. I am so thankful that I had prepared my animal shelters for the hurricane the prior week. I too was going to buy those ground anchors but I was afraid that my soil is too sandy and they would hold. So I put tpost in as well and then zip tied them to the coops. That wind didn't move them coops😊
Grazzzzy,I been in one like that,like a real life movie...lol, Crazzzy 🤪.. It flipped 2 full size LA Metro size buses over...I wish I could live like U,with real good hearted saints...no drama...just good living !
Amazing the animals did well.
Wow, I am so happy to hear none of the birds were injured with all that upheaval. Good reminder to plan for the worst and hope for the best!
Sounds like y’all had yourselves a little derecho……. Sympathy and empathy from your neighbors in Iowa. Glad you didn’t have injuries or livestock losses. That’s the important thing.
thank you God everybody ok.
Beautiful cattle and I love your hoop coops too!
Great attitudes thru challenges. Bravo!
Oh, at 19:20, on the video, I noticed you turned the next set of teeposts to the outside, yeah!
Great recovery from that nasty storm!
After tie down, Drive post a little more to really snug paracord.
Helpful tip. If you collect eggs in the evening, use a black light. They glow a bright redish pink color and are super easy to find.
Glad you weathered the storm.
Kevin & Sarah, I am so sorry y'all had bad weather like that. I pray you can recover from this the losses. Thank God your animals are ok. Habe a BLESSED DAY ❤❤❤
Kevin, may I suggest a sandbox for the quail aviary. A "red neck" gentleman on youtube said quail like sand/grit area. They often will lay their eggs in the sand area. Best wishes, Blessings. 😊
❤ yup. Weather is a part of life. God doesn't give us more than we can handle. You didn't loose sny livestock, so thats great. The farm looks amazing as do you both❤
I always use t-posts to anchor.
Thank you for the updates. Love watching your channel, I've been watching for years now. You guys do such a great job of explaining everything.
Hi Sarah and Kevin! Happy to here that your place didn't take to much of a beating during that storm. The bottom in your quail hut must have kept it on the ground.
QUESTION: Speaking of quail, do your quails need to take dust baths? If so, maybe take one of those containers and put some dust in it for them. Just a thought. Take care! Blessings to all!
Glad it wasn’t too terrible. We live in hurricane territory and my chickens are my biggest worry.
So glad no animals were hurt. I would have tied cord as close to the ground as possible, but what you did will probably be good enough.
Ty for all you do to teach us.
Just so glad you are ok
I’m sorry you all had so much damage
Praise The Lord your home was not damaged.
We also had awful storms blow through with straight line winds.
After our first 18x20 carport shed went flying across the road and into the neighbors pasture after a straight wind we anchored all ours with 4x4s at each end lol. Anchors and cable did not hold 😂
Ahhhh! Nice save! You guys were on it, lol! Just want to let you guys know about a great guy at the channel Weather Man Plus. His name is Mark and he keeps us informed of weather weeks and even a whole month before it happens. He told us about our Texas ice storm a month before it happened so we were ready for it. Gotta be honest my heart skipped a beat for the quail, so thanks for starting out by saying the critters were all ok.
I am so sorry for all you had to go through. I thought Sarah was going to smack Kevin when telling the story😜. I am glad that no animals were hurt.
All that work. Glad you all was safe.
I'm so glad yall are ok. ❤ Praise God!
Great picture
Thankful that no one or any animals were hurt. PTL !!! Thank you for being good Christian farmers. GOD bless you and your family.
Sounds like a tornado hit there. Glad you both & the animals were safe.
Good to see you using hearing protection.
Hello you have a beautiful farm. Love the cows
So sorry for all your hard work and loss …
I guess the extra weight of the floor on the quail coop helped it not to move. Glad everyone is OK!
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏♥️ you guys had one of them "micro-bursts" they been talking about.....thankful everyone including the critters are ok.♥️
I am glad the damage from the storm was not any worse. Also... very happy about your quail situation. The hoop coop is a much more humane way to raise quail if you are going to do that....
Scary and shocking for y’all. Glad your home was spared.
You came out pretty good with the wind damage that you had on Labor Day, glad you were able to salvage so much and that the Quail Hoop House was spared. Anchoring them down will hopefully save them from any future winds you may have. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great videos and the fun you all have around there. Fred.
You got me watching videos! LoL Glad y'all had minimal damage. Now you have a New and Improved "Chicken Butt Hut" Blessings
An idea for future is install them inside the door frame and on the back long post. Then use that metal strapping and screw it around the tpost. Should hold and keep the original look. You would probably have to use the 4 foot ones
Thanks for the recovery from the storm, video. Got some good ideas. I found a new channel "a path made humble " have a blessed day.
Tie the rope over the coop, and then use the t-post hammer to sink the post a bit more and it will tighten the ropes!
Glad all the animals survived the Squall. Bless the homestead and all it's dwellers. 🕊🙏
Fantastic!
"Fluffy Butt Hut"!!!! I'm dying laughing.🤣 Love that! Praise God you and your animals were all safe during that storm. Bless you!!
