Billi and Bobby are just darling - I'm glad they're not food 😆And I'd probably sleep amongst the cats if I was there, they have it soooo good! Love cats!! All the animals are so happy and relaxed, because you take such good care of them. They give me so much joy to watch. Thank you for being such a kind farmer to them. Stay warm 😻🐷Teresa 🇦🇺❤
I love your videos! It's such a joy to see so many happy and well cared for animals enjoying their life on the farm, and also really interesting hearing about all the aspects of the farm life.
Great video Chad. Bubbles is still very timid. She is a cutie. You have done a great job on the farm for all the furbabies. Thank you for sharing. Thoughts and Prayers. Love and Blessings. Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
Thank you for keeping us updated on all the animal going’s on😊. Olive is so fun to watch! And the cats all look so healthy and happy, especially with their thick winter coats.
Good morning Chad thank you for the chilly.. video!! Seems like your animals could want for nothing. You take very good care of them😊 Thank you for sharing!! 💜🤗✨ Sending love and support from Florida 🌺✨✨✨
Good mornin' Chad! 🌤 It's so heart-warming to see you loving your animals and taking such good care of them. 🤗Winter is looonnnng here in S. Ontario. Love Olive and her frozen wiskers. 😄
Hey Chad, it's beautiful there. It will be very cold here in North Carolina this weekend, but it doesn't say anything about snow. Always love seeing the precious animals. Merry Christmas to you and your wife and all your sweet barn yard friends. ❤❤🌲☃️
That little kitties house would be perfect for Bubble and Maggie… since they are the smallest of the kitties… I just love Bubbles… I just want to hold her and hug her and pet her and just love her to bits!!!! She's Such a beautiful little girl… well, this was another great video… thanks for sharing your farm with us… I hope you have a blessed and wonderful day and coming weekend!!!! Stay warm!!!! Cheers!!!😊😊😊
Happy Holidays to you & your darling ! Also, to all the farm animals & Olive ❤ I watch your videos with my grandson who enjoys watching all the animals.
Morning Chad. Please stay warm yourself. This episode reminds me of my early days taking the public trains (which we call the EL in Chicago).During the winters, you stand outside on the platform waiting. There were heatlamps above. The pigeons would be standing or perched along with us with their 'pumped up,' ruffled feathers. Lol I don't understand how birds do it. Good times. Take care everyone ❤️
Hi chad and Ms olive and all animals. It looks cold. Ms olive is so smart running all over to find her red toy. I could watch her all day. Lol. Time I do some chores. Until next time you and Darlin have a fun weekend.
I love how Bobbi came running when you called her name. Sooooo cute! If I were an animal stuck in a winter wonderland for months on end, I would apply to be a resident of your farm! We get snow in Indiana, but it usually doesn't last long where I live, thankfully.
I use the same treats for my kitties… they LOVE the catnip flavored ones… I have used the other flavors and they will eat them but they don’t go bananas over them like they do the catnip flavored treats… for their food, they get indoor grain free kitty food… I then Keep live catnip and some wheat grass so they can get their greens if they need to… the wheat grass is cool,cuz when they eat it down, it just grows right back up again,,, I don’t have to keep replacing it… the catnip is the same but they do t eat it as much as they do the wheat grass…
The trees you planted really added to the scenery on your farm Chad! I noticed them right away! What are the personal relationships among your cats? I saw Dexter and Chunk playing together; and I have seen them wander off together in past videos. Are they buds? I have also seen tango and mango go off together. Just curious. 😊
@@Rich-t6w mango and chunk hunt together all the time. When in the cat house Dexter and chunk often play together. Tango and Maggie are solo huntresses. Fozzy gets along with them all but will swat them away to get my pets first. Bubbles also gets along with them all. In the last few videos there was a scene with Dexter and bubbles cuddling in the heated tent. They all get along like a family though.
Hello from our farm PEI. We 29:55 have about 1/2” of snow at a high of 3. Friday night and Saturday we are expecting a storm. Must go out today to stock up on food. II enjoy your vid
I really don't envy your farm stay winter way LoL I'm definitely not cut out for a four season life. 😂 Although when we do finally have the ability to visit Hidden Springs I plan for it to be a winter visit. Maybe Santa will be able to get that wish list granted for next year. 🤗
I forgot to mention that I would visit in the winter because I am a beach baby. Virginia Beach will be 54 on Christmas. Don't know your conversion but haven't seen snow on Christmas for some time. Maybe 2025 it's time to be🎶 "dreaming of a white Christmas"🎶 on a vacay stay with the critters 👍
Do you have a video on the financing of the farm? What are the costs for upkeep of the animals, how is everything paid for, etc? I love your videos. And an always curious what these things cost and how they are paid for. Thank you and keep these videos coming!
Love seeing the animals on the farm! You have a lot of enrichment things for the cats, have you considered getting things for the pigs? And maybe more for the bunnies? 😅
@HiddenSpringFarm gotta sit down with them and have a heart to heart. "Bobbi, Billy, you can't be acting like this..." 😅😅😅😅 Edit to add: get them one of those rage rooms where you are SUPPOSED to break things!!! Hahahaha
I know she's just a cat but I wonder if. because you never let her out with the other cats, Bubbles feels you don't like her and that's why she's afraid of you and runs and hides whenever you enter the Cat Barn 🤔😢😢 Maybe in the Spring you can find a way to allow her some 'outside time'.
@@dawnth531 I hope so but that’s not the reason. It’s a long story but it cause I used a net to catch her to get her to her first vet visit…since that mistake I’ve been working to regain her trust. Hopefully she’ll trust me a bit more by then so we can get her outside.
@@JH-ml5cp you mean like solar or wind? Not that economical when you have several months out of the year it wouldn’t work due to snow coverage or lack of sun.
@@chrisheitstuman6360 Embden geese. Every year I take a bunch of eggs to hatch and I’m very successful, the rest of the eggs I let them try but they haven’t been successful at all. There’s one goose that sits on the eggs but they end up going rotten so she must not be keeping them warm enough. Plus their breeding season starts too early sometimes March and it’s still cold out. I’ll try again this year.
@HiddenSpringFarm Thank you. Inam in interior Alaska and getting ready to start getting animals this next spring and summer, so I am doing my planning. Maybe take eggs until May or June and then let them sit. I think that is when the wild ones here start sitting. You might have better luck in that time frame.
As they age it might be a concern especially. There’s been some animal tragedy on this and most farms but it would be awful for the cat house to burn down.
Time to get Bobby a Vasectomy!!!! That way he and Billi can be back together….without having to worry about piglets!
Exactly. Never isolate animals or birds. They need companions too.
You should put a live stream camera in the cat cave! I bet they get up to all sorts of hilarious antics during the day haha.
Lucky animals to have such a responsible owner who puts such thought into their habitats and surroundings.

Puffing up their feathers is also a way birds keep warm.
Yes they fill up a warm air pocket under their feathers, very cool 😉
Looks like you guys will have a white Christmas at Hidden Spring Farm 😀
Maybe but it’s been raining a bit
Happy Holidays to you & your darling ! Also, to all the farm animals & Olive ❤ I watch your videos with my grandson who enjoys watching all the animals.
Merry Christmas! So glad you and your grandson enjoy the videos! 😊

You have all attention of the cats. Have you ever think in a sistem to produce your own electricity? simple curiosity. I dont known how goes in canada
@@JH-ml5cp you mean like solar or wind? Not that economical when you have several months out of the year it wouldn’t work due to snow coverage or lack of sun.
You have probably answered tbis before, but what breed are your geese? Have you ever had them sit and hatch goslings on their own?

Maybe take eggs until May or June and then let them sit. I think that is when the wild ones here start sitting. You might have better luck in that time frame.
if you get one of your pigs fixed then they can be together
Chad just be careful about these electric heated cat houses’ I’ve heard that some of them went on fire…
As they age it might be a concern especially. There’s been some animal tragedy on this and most farms but it would be awful for the cat house to burn down.
You probably don’t need any more pigs. You have a hard time getting rid of them
