Justin, I’ve followed you long enough to know what you might say to this. I hope you hear me out. Maybe this one time Lily can keep the lamb. The nature of girls is to nurture and your sweet girl honors her father and his wishes. I would be willing to buy another book to help offset the cost of a lamb…I’ve bought 2 from you. She is such a testament to the love and nurturing you & Rebekah give to your kids. Thank you for teaching & encouraging us to keep trying, learning, & growing. God bless you all.
Young men are great inventors with incredible imaginations and skills. Lily is great at trying anything first before giving up on animals. She nurtured a chicken, also, at one time. Gideon is growing so much and learning to do a lot of new things to help. Cannot believe Henry is close to one year old. Welcome back!!! 🐾🐕🐶🐄😸
I would love to see a video on how the boys built the go cart. This would instill pride for them and their work as well as be interesting to us. Keep us the good work Rhodes Family! God Bless!
I love that you wear Henry so much! If his weight is bothering your back at all, you could do some adjustments to get him a little higher on your back. Generally the higher they are, the more comfortable it is to wear them. Again, it really warms my heart to see you wear him so much! It's such a secure place for little ones to be, both physically but also emotionally. Thank you for promoting / normalizing babywearing!
your children don't know how good they have it..so blessed..that's the life of what my Daddy called " farmer" he did it all..when I came home from the hospital..I went home to the house he built..brick columns..front porch..out house..but he bought that white "slop jar " we did no.2 in..at night or when it's freezing to go to the out house.its raining all day up here..I'm in a melancholy mood..love yawl ..gdnte ..
Great advice! The closest veggie/herb bed to my front door is about 5ft from the bottom of the steps! I spend so much time in my gardens due to this, and really get to watch it all unfold. I’ve had gardens a jaunt from the house before, and I’ll tell ya I much prefer the grocery be right at the bottom my stairs 😄 God bless y’all!
This is for anyone in the world to do. You see iv been praying for our homesteaders family. Lets pray for all people in the world, because were thankful, and grateful what for this day that the lord has giving us.
Congratulations Young Men on your successful building a Go Cart. I don't know any Young Men your age that could/would do that. Lily is a Animal Whisperer. She always trust before giving up. Way to go Young Lady. Your Children are Leaning every day. Peace from WV
Ah the ingenuity of your boys! Love it! Also Lilies heart for the lamb is precious!! Henry’s face is so cute! Gideon is growing up so fast! Love your family!💜
Awesome job on the GO-CART guys! and sweet Lily with that precious lamb! I just love watching you guys, thanks for all the invaluable info Justin and Rebecca ('the beautiful one' and she truly is)
Nice to see you back on the homestead. Wow that Go-Cart is unbelievable and they made and designed it themselves!!!!!! Fantastic, well done . Lily you are a little nurse with your lamb well done, you have such a lovely soft nature. I can see you being a vet when you grow up. Justin and Rebecca you have such a lovely family, they do there chores they work so hard and even Mr Brown has started to work with his brothers. Have a lovely day.
They need roll bars on that go cart. If they flip it you will be sorry you said no to buying one. Love your show, been watching since B4 the great af tour.
Hi! You both must be very proud of your children ; they are very self sufficients . I admire them and you two very very much. May God continue blessing you🐴🐑🐰🎉💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Justin I remember watching you when you were on the farm tour. You got me hooked then., God bless you & your family. I finally watched this first episode., I cried. I was there watching you from the beginning when you all finally came home & got Stud muffin. Memories 😘🙏💕 I feel so honored to have been there. You are Awesome Thank you 😘🙏🙏 I cant wait too watch more episodes Linda from Ct
I'm certain Lily is familiar with where her meals come from; however, sometimes animals come "close to one's heart", in this case, Lily's. It's right in front of you , Justin.
Try Muscovy duck for Christmas dinner. We smoked ours, wrapped in bacon. The meat is more like beef than duck, and they are mostly breast and small legs, so harvest 2 for every 1 duck. They can be raised with your ducks and harvested exactly the same or skinned. They are leaner than ducks, so we skinned ours, hence the wrapping in bacon because I hate the plucking part. They can fly, so handle them and kinda make them pets so you can catch them easily. We have some that are permanent pets, acting more like curious dogs than ducks. They easily multiply on their own. We keep ours with the chickens with no issues. 1 drake to every 5 -7 Muscovy hens is our preferred ratio. They are seasonal layers and handle cold wet weather with ease.
I love your farm and videos. I get the farm thing and have even toughened up over the years. I am not devastated when a chicken dies or a cat comes up missing, but there is no way on earth I could eat that sweet lamb, lol! I don't eat meat anyway, but that has no bearing. That has got to be the sweetest creature I have ever seen! This is not intended as a negative remark, I love you guys and your mission, I just wish I could hug that sweet little lamb! Keep up the amazing work!
such a sweet video.i remember when we were in Korea..my friends mother carried our daughter on her back with a sheet..that was the 80s...memories are made of this..your sons brought back memories when my brother made his go cart..that was in the 50s..he's now 83.i love your show but being 73 my attention span is short..love yawl. n.c.gal in pa.
Justin, if the boys run into something with that gas powered go cart using their feet and legs for steering.... that could be significant impact, and there's a pinch point. One might examine or reconsider the steering.
Congratulations boys on your beautiful go Cart. You guys are amazing and we love watching everything you do from chores to trips to building things. All our love from Tottenham Ontario Canada zone 5
This is what good home schooling is all about!! I wish all kids could have it. Loved your vids from the tropics lol.About. to run there ourselves!! Oh I am so missing my garden now!
So enjoyed this video! I hope those kids stay safe on that go kart! Perhaps some hydraulic tie rods for safety to prevent wobble at higher speeds? Any mechs in here have thoughts? and might I say, that’s very impressive what they did so far! Kudos pops
I think some of the best things to look at if you are feeling overwhelmed: are you organized, or always running around looking for things and do you a a set routine, or just running around putting out fires? Take a good look at your space and is it organized. That's sort of like you said, where "thing" are can make a big difference.
LOL LOve the beginning, when my brother and I were about that age we built a go cart that looked much like that one. Dad was not impressed because we removed the bar and chain from his chainsaw and used it for a power plant. Ran great but we had to find another old engine to run it. Off an old Lawnboy mower 2 stroke so smoked some.
I'm surprised Jonah hasn't bought his own animals to sell meat from to start a future for himself. Growing up on a farm that was pretty standard for all us as kids...I had a small herd of cattle, a horse and a handful of sheep when I was 14
Over the years i have changed what i want to eat and not growing certain things anymore. I have brought my food closer to the house and closer to outside my door, LOL
Hi..... Justin Rhodes and Rebecca nice to see you all love watching your videos, thank you for showing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 👕🐔🐓🐣 🐥🐕🐈🐑🐖🐇🌱🌺🌹🌿🌻🌼🌸🍀🌷🏡🎥👍👍👍
Justin, We are just starting our farm. We are so new to the community. We are struggling with how to find like minded neighbors or a community that we can join to help us on our new journey. We really enjoy your journey and hope you continue to share. BTW, What Boots are those you have on? Cheers Mark and Rebecca noobie farmers
You may want to influence them boys to engineer some left and right stops on that steering mechanism for safety. I can visualize a pinched leg on that thing when they hit a bump or pothole with one wheel and a foot slips off that steering board.
Hi, yall. Just wanted to let you all know, today im ( praying, and weeping for our country, to our Lord who is in heaven. All by myself at home. We see his love every day in our gardens. So we know what he can do.
Yeah my dad built a go-kart he was a welder, he put a lawn mower engine on it. That thing with nearly fly out from under you. I personally got one summer out of it because my legs became too long. You know how life is nothing stays the same. We had this oh yeah I know where you live you got that big circle in your side yard. I don't think my dad thought that through. But he gave it away to this family that were professors in college but still evidently the people in the neighborhood that live close didn't think they could afford all those those kids, so I guess everybody got in a habit of giving things to them. Like our beautiful red go-kart we never seen again, they also had a habit of coming to our house and going into the basement yes, that went my beautiful orange bike. My uncle saw it on the side of the road but for some stupid reason he thought I was in the field why would I be in a field there's a fence there plus you know grass yeah grass and fines on the fence so there was no passing through nor do I trust pass I am of the legal age that I could not pass it off like oh me. So I got the phone call and went up and of course it's going to cost you know you got another blanketed blank seats. That was never replaced. I never asked them to because they get another boy back we're in the world in my parents think I like boys things I'm a girl always like girl things. I just didn't know how to play with them because I was raised as a tomboy great wide difference. I would ride my sisters when she'd let me cuz she had the regular style for a girl it was so much fun. I was afraid at that 10 speed but I rode it.
Did anyone else not get their free gifts for pre-ordering the book early? 🤔 I don't even remember what it was supposed to be or if we get it with the book when it comes in March?
🎶Lily had a little lamb little lamb little lamb,
Lily had a little lamb its fleece as white as snow🎶
So adorable!!! Great job Lily!

Amen and Amen!
Yes
If it's a boy she should not keep it. I raise sheep and bottle rams do not fear anything and you can get hurt.
Hi Lily. You are doing a great job rearing the Lamb, well done. Theres nothing wrong in keeping him or her forever.
Only keep IF quality enough to use for breeding.. other wise...a money hole...farming is a business..tho our hearts can love the animals we raise
I'm pretty dang sure, I heard Henry quite clearly when Justin was talking with Henry on his back say "Blah, Blah, Blah". ;)
Hilarious lol 7:12
I heard him…lol
I heard him too
Yes, Henry says ,"blah blah blah " a lot when Justin is talking. Cracks me up. 😅
Lol
awe, you gotta keep "Little Dude"....he can be the farm mascot...so cute
"Is it gonna be hard (to harvest your bottle lamb)?" ..."Yeah"
Been there, Lily. You're going to be an amazing and intimidating farm wife someday 🤣
... or a veterinarian?
Young men are great inventors with incredible imaginations and skills. Lily is great at trying anything first before giving up on animals. She nurtured a chicken, also, at one time. Gideon is growing so much and learning to do a lot of new things to help. Cannot believe Henry is close to one year old. Welcome back!!! 🐾🐕🐶🐄😸
Its so nice to have you home and back to daily vlogs, I really missed them, and hearing about all the daily trials and tribulations of your farm.
You all are so good ! The kids don’t complain about chores they just do it. Parents are a great infuance. You are so great you all….
I'm guessing Lily's lamb will remain a pet. There's always got to be at least one exception.
that would be great but I would be so surprised if Justin allowed it
I would love to see a video on how the boys built the go cart. This would instill pride for them and their work as well as be interesting to us. Keep us the good work Rhodes Family! God Bless!
Yes they need a go pro so they can have a "kids livin' the rooted life" channe!!l 😀
@@hoodfamilyhomestead537 They did have their own channel at one point.
@@phoenixdogtraininguk I didn't know that, how do I find it, what was the name?
I love that you wear Henry so much! If his weight is bothering your back at all, you could do some adjustments to get him a little higher on your back. Generally the higher they are, the more comfortable it is to wear them. Again, it really warms my heart to see you wear him so much! It's such a secure place for little ones to be, both physically but also emotionally. Thank you for promoting / normalizing babywearing!
Amazing job on the go cart, back in my day I am ,72 boys did those things all the time. The little lamb is adorable, well done Lili.
From personal experience. Limit the maximum turn of the steering on the go-kart. I have the scars to prove it. Still brings back great memories.
Oh my. The heart and skills of your children is so amazing!
Your systems are just getting better and better and that little lamb is adorable
Blessings to all!
your children don't know how good they have it..so blessed..that's the life of what my Daddy called " farmer" he did it all..when I came home from the hospital..I went home to the house he built..brick columns..front porch..out house..but he bought that white "slop jar " we did no.2 in..at night or when it's freezing to go to the out house.its raining all day up here..I'm in a melancholy mood..love yawl ..gdnte ..

This boys of yours are ingenious! Great job J and J ! Bravo!🎉🎊🌟
I love the baby lamb. The Go cart is fantastic!!! Great life. 💞
Started some seeds last month. They're on a shelf in my kitchen lol. Talk about close by!

Building things is truly a gift!!
what a nice life those kids have
Lily and that baby lamp is absolutely adorable ❤
Thanks for this Justin. Nice to see you back on the homestead. The boy's go cart is awesome! Everyone looks happy and healthy.

Memories 😘🙏💕 I feel so honored to have been there. You are Awesome
Thank you 😘🙏🙏
I cant wait too watch more episodes
Linda from Ct
Your kids are so smart, and inventive, and talented!
I'm certain Lily is familiar with where her meals come from; however, sometimes animals come "close to one's heart", in this case, Lily's.
It's right in front of you , Justin.
He knows. He's reminding her. He's spoken before about his daughter's love of some of the animals. Lily also has daddy's heart. Time will tell. 💜🧡❤
Yes lack of empathy is psychopathy, nothing from animals you can't get from plants, but plenty from plants you can't get from animals..
Awesome farm, and your kids are cool. That little one is loving life just being close to you, being part of what's going on.
God bless my homestead family the Justin R. family. I love you guys.
They are my kind of boy...Creative and smart and TOUGH 👊💪🦾👏👏
Your kiddos have great imagination. Love to see this and the love of animals along with the outdoors
So glad vlogs are back!!

Roast Prime Rib of Beef for Christmas for the win! gravy, mashed potatos, fixins

Awesome GoCart. If you're concerned, you can TH-cam how to adjust the governor on small engines to regulate speed . 🏎️
Justin, if the boys run into something with that gas powered go cart using their feet and legs for steering.... that could be significant impact, and there's a pinch point. One might examine or reconsider the steering.
That's just a whole lot of fun right there!!
That go cart is going to be dangerous. Go get those hard working kids a real go cart
Congratulations boys on your beautiful go Cart. You guys are amazing and we love watching everything you do from chores to trips to building things. All our love from Tottenham Ontario Canada zone 5
Cool go-cart, LOVE IT ❤
'Harvest' is such a sanitized word for it. And yarrow is not the only prolific there.
This is what good home schooling is all about!! I wish all kids could have it. Loved your vids from the tropics lol.About. to run there ourselves!!
Oh I am so missing my garden now!
You’re discussing the analysis of paralysis. I feel this and got to push through.
Me too! I'm making a sign and putting it at my front door! Perfectly said!
So enjoyed this video! I hope those kids stay safe on that go kart! Perhaps some hydraulic tie rods for safety to prevent wobble at higher speeds? Any mechs in here have thoughts?

That is awesome. Building a go cart at age 14! Amazing!
That wobbly chickennest thing. You could screw some pieces of wood on to them. Two pieces (slats?) is enough. They would then be not so wobbly..
Ahhh! I needed to hear this today!! Thank you! Time to trim the fat. Feeling overwhelmed. It's hard, but I know what I just need to not do anymore.
Wow, great job building the go cart boys!
I don't know about that steering. Looks like a recipe for various injuries.
How cool is that DIY Go Cart!!!
Love the cart. Great job boys.
LOL LOve the beginning, when my brother and I were about that age we built a go cart that looked much like that one.

Holy crap!! The baby was almost whacked in the head 3:29! My heart slipped a few beats.
I think Gideon @ 8:25 😂 where there’s a way there’s a will ❤️
My heart stopped too... till I realized most of his "head" right there is beannie, and the hoodie hood...
I thought the same. I’m yelling to Justin as if he can hear me. Don’t! The baby! Did you forget you have a baby on your back? My heart racing.
Learning from you guys
This channel!!!! Justin you’re the best narrator ever.
Those two boys are great love them
Omg they are geniuses 🙏🏽
Adorable!
I would add those layer boxes to my Coop, however is a small one and my crazy chickens are picky about where do they lay....
You’ve been out of my rotation -nice to see you back
Over the years i have changed what i want to eat and not growing certain things anymore. I have brought my food closer to the house and closer to outside my door, LOL

8:31 Justin talking about “overwhelm” while Jonah strives to shove a cow-nice juxtaposition.
Those are some productive kids. Definitely the exception today and not the rule.
Clever creative boys, nice to see.
Keep the bottle lamb to put with the ram.
I think they already have Buddy (one of last year's lambs) with Nacho? Not saying they can't have 3 together though! I hope they keep him.
@@susanc536 right, but as sweet as Buddy is he isn't the same as a bottle lamb. Harvest Buddy and keep the lamb.
I love 💕 your videos thanks for sharing
you have a beautiful heart my dude..

Them boys did an awesome job on that go-cart.
Please spare Lilly's lamb
Very good video. People really need help in just getting started
Are you still putting corn in the bedding layers in the pole barn?
Justin i see your limping again i hope it heals so hugssss
That go kart is going to seriously haul! That's a powerful motor for a light weight, wooden framed kart. Hope the brakes work good, haha!
I see Lily to become a country Veterinarian!
