Sorry the audio isn't correct. I didn't select "mono" when creating the video. So Rebekah's microphone is the left speaker, and my microphone is the right speaker. So it won't sound right if you use headphones or earbuds. Sorry about that.
One of the best loved channels on YT!! My wife and I have watched from the beginning. She went to Heaven back in July. I miss her so. She was a good woman and loved animals like Rebecca.
This will be a much better place for the cows and sheep vs the back of the bank barn. I think some of the commenters fail to realize that both of you work full time jobs and then work your property while being TH-camrs , all without any outside help. The amount you two accomplish is awesome. Most other channels I have seen all they do is TH-cam , don't have outside jobs. My property here in Kansas is smaller than yours and I have a full time job and am a single guy with zero outside help. So I fully understand how hard it is. Everything is always a work in progress.
The problem I see with the livestock in your barn is it has a gravel floor and when you clean it out this spring it's going to have gravel mixed in with the manure and what ever you use for bedding and you don't want to be spreading rock in your fields. Great videos and keep them coming
Your tractor looks a lot better with the ballast box 👍 Because you are rightfully concerned about stones, I'll suggest you but down a good layer of hay to start your bedding pack. If you put down fresh hay once a week - in a couple of weeks you won't even know that you have a stone base..
I have never seen any farm animals ever raised on stone, it will destroy their hooves and get in between them, causing all kinds of problems, I would keep a watch on their hooves and make sure they stay okay.
The new barn for the animals looks great and will help keep them safer out of all the mud. You two worked things out really well together. Stay safe and keep up the fun around there. Fred.
Delightful delightful to see the animals safe n contented. Evans, why is your numbers do slow in going up. Only 151K sub with so much educational n authentic contents? Something wrong with the utube algorithm?! Folks, better check whether u have been unsubscribed. If those enjoyed the videos n are still not subscribers, please do so. Appreciate their effort n authenticy😊
How is the hog panel going to keep from moving when the cows go up to scratch on it or bed down next to it ? I worry about the hydrant. Maybe pound a couple rebar spikes near the hydrant. fingers crossed. I love watching your channel!
Nice barn for the animals in the winter. We used to take some of the older bales of hay and stack them around the outside of the building to kind of insulate it and keep the wind out. It works for awhile anyway.
My god I hope you’re all doing well maté lots off happy for your family and your friends mate hope you are all doing well stay safe. My god you work so hard just to after animals it’s nice that you both do that god bless you all mate and your Wife and Children.
I would add a roll hay to the floor to make beds and sleep on. The gravel will be very cold being on a frozen floor. Myia probably pulled enough hay out to make her a bed beside the hay rack.
The rain you will get is the rain we have been getting the last three days down here in Texas,. As of right now...(still raining) we have gotten about 16 inches in the last three days. They forecasted 3 to 5 inches over the whole time. Boy were they wrong on that one!!!!
every barn I have been in the farmer provides bedding for the animals. sawdust, wood chips , straw, hay. for comfort of the animals and compost cleanup. I think it might add a bit of warmth to. what do you think
Throw some junk hay on the ground to give em something nice to lay on, throw some kick boards up on the inside bottom 4ft or so to keep legs from going through the barn metal and this’ll make a nice spot for the critters.
IF you put hay in the barn put it up on some pallets to make the clean up easier. also put some panels around the walls to keep the animals from pushing the tin off the sheeting board , been there done that. you can drop a tarp from the top of the door to keep from losing as much heat too
I like the new shed in concept… but I think you jumped the gun on the move… you need stock panels on the inside walls to protect the metal, and all the gravel needs to be removed, otherwise you’re going to be spreading it all over the farm when composting or spreading manure on the fields….I’d have spent the time on water diversion for the barn, and trenching a proper drain/buried culvert.. capturing the rain from the barn roof and keeping it off the barnyard seems a better solution to the muddy mess.
Great job here. The🎉 livestock will love it. However, as others have commented, you will need a good bedding pack, and the walls will need to be lined with plywood or 2x material. Otherwise, they will destroy the sheet metal.
You have found a really nice stable for the animals, only a little thing is still missing, but still distributed a location on the feeding point on a spot on a stain on which the animals can lie down, it is not only very important for the health of the animals , but they also feel more comfortable. I wish you a good time.
Evan, If you could find a used brush from a power sweeper or snow sweeper, they make great scratch posts for cows to rub against…. With all the snow lately there ought to be plenty of them out there..
The most ideal would have been a concrete floor,you'll krrp putting in gravel over the years of cleaning it out, and a couple of bostalls will be an asset in there as well.
You have accomplished a lot this fall and winter. Some old hay covering those stones would be good, grinding their knees against stones when they are getting up is not going to feel very good and can cause a bruise and swelling-
I don't think you would have had any trouble with the sheep getting through the board fence. The boards are close enough together to keep them from getting through.
I thought Rebecca would have jumped for sure when moving the hay ring and the mice came running her way but I don’t believe she even saw them. I was feeling for her at that moment. All the hard work is paying off the animals will enjoy the new area and you have put a lot of thought into making it. Maybe in the spring you can get a yard brush for the cows I believe they would definitely enjoy one. Another great video. Always look forward to seeing what’s next. Hopefully when you retire to the farm we get even more videos of the farm work. Stay warm and dry.
A lime packed floor would be all you would need for your barn. That way when you clean it out and spread it, a little lime will help the fields. Considerably cheaper than concrete.
Never has a domestic animal been so fortunate as to be cared for by you guys! You exercise your dominion over the animals in your care like God intended. (God said we can eat them)😂
Glad to see the cattle chute going inside, expensive piece of eguipment to leave out to the weather, I've watched farmers try to use them once they get rusty and it can get dangerious
Why don’t you half fill your tyres with water , it was the only way we could get the weight on the rear tyres other wise the tractor bounced when you had a plough on , so when you have a 28 foot plough you need to have plenty of grip , had a big farm paddocks went from a thousand acres to a hundred , I like your show and love watching you use all the old gear , oh today’s temperature was 40c heading for the rest of the week , all the best from Australia 🇦🇺
Glad you fenced off the hydrant. You know how animals love to rub and break things or turn the water on. I have a similar situation in my barn and I really need to build something more permanent around it. thinking almost a sturdy frame with a door to keep livestock out and also allow me to open it up nicely for me to use. tall enough to be able to access the handle to turn on and off. Maybe with an open top so if the O'ring goes bad I can unscrew it, and have room to pull out the rod and 0'rings and replace them. I have the type you can repair it without digging.
Cattle love to be brushed and rubbed on some more so then others my son had a cow that had to give him a hug everyday before school. I have seen his set in the barn yard a feed her a cheese burger she loved them. They can be very loving animals for sure.
Hopefully the animals don’t destroy all the tin inside and out on the barn before you have a chance to put up protective Pens and fencing. Great channel.
Love you guys. We went through those cold Temps and half foot of sleet last week. Now it's day 4 of nonstop rain with highs in mid 60s and lows in mid 50s. Topsy-turvy winter. Question, why didn't you put hay or wood chips down to make it better for barnyard critters to lay and sleep on. I did that in my barn because lower fields are 1 foot deep in water now. Rain not scheduled to leave area till next weekend. No more drought situation here.
Sorry the audio isn't correct. I didn't select "mono" when creating the video. So Rebekah's microphone is the left speaker, and my microphone is the right speaker. So it won't sound right if you use headphones or earbuds. Sorry about that.
Have you thought about hay for bedding i guess the gravel wont be good ?
One of the best loved channels on YT!! My wife and I have watched from the beginning. She went to Heaven back in July. I miss her so. She was a good woman and loved animals like Rebecca.
My deepest sympathy. Sorry for your loss 🙏
Lord have mercy! May her memory be eternal.
God bless you Steve, in JESUS NAME !!!
@steve.5, Sorry for your great loss. Stay strong. 🙏

You may want to look at adding stock panels to the inside of your barn to keep the animals from damaging the steel walls.
yep.... I agree.
we added old wood bridge planks to our barn at rear height , be a little more difficult with sheep too
You should start a bed pack for the animals. It will help keep them warm and comfortable. Laying on that gravel won't be very much fun for them.
Yep ..... I agree
i was just gonna say throw a stalk bale down or something

At 4:33 Rebecca was blissfully unaware of the mouse scurrying behind her to her right.
I told my husband the exact same thing 😂
I saw that also 😊
And two mice going separate ways at 12:03 LOL
Just a suggestion, add plywood to the bottom section of the Barn to keep hooves from going through the metal.
Yes to this- plywood(not OSB) to48” high.
Always amazed how much just the two of you accomplish.
Your tractor looks a lot better with the ballast box 👍
Because you are rightfully concerned about stones, I'll suggest you but down a good layer of hay to start your bedding pack. If you put down fresh hay once a week - in a couple of weeks you won't even know that you have a stone base..
Hi.... Evan and Rebecca thanks you for showing your video homestead bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋👍👍👍
Another good video ! I LOVE YOU GUYS !!!!!!!🥰🥰
It sure feels good to have a project like this come together. You've given me a lot of good ideas for my own place. Thanks!
I have never seen any farm animals ever raised on stone, it will destroy their hooves and get in between them, causing all kinds of problems, I would keep a watch on their hooves and make sure they stay okay.
Agreed, also wondering the effect of this much stone acting as a brake in manure spreader web. There will be a repair vid.
Every cow likes petting. Consider to install a really sturdy pole with some broom heads screwed to it. They'll LOVE it ;-)
The new barn for the animals looks great and will help keep them safer out of all the mud. You two worked things out really well together. Stay safe and keep up the fun around there. Fred.
I loved Rebekah was with her cow, and she was loving it as much as the cow!
It is a nice barn for the critters....
I think once the bedding pack builds up, the bigger stones won't be a concern. Good job!
Don't forget something soft and warm for them to lay on like hay.

Rebekah has become my favorite YT personality. Love your videos!! Keep em coming!
Great temp set-up, animals look happy!
Looking good. Will be alot better for the animals. All the best 🇬🇧.
You need a cow door like a doggie door. So they go in and out during the day, but it will stay dry on the inside. Love when Maya explores the camera!!
Love the cow scratching Rebecca ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It will be interesting to see how this works out. Our critters were pushers and they would push the metal walls out. Nice set up though.
God bless the both of of you🙏🙏
That works out perfectly. The animals approve. lol
You take such good care of your animals.
I would add a roll hay to the floor to make beds and sleep on. The gravel will be very cold being on a frozen floor. Myia probably pulled enough hay out to make her a bed beside the hay rack.
Good morning, guys!

Dunno why but I laughed at all those mice hauling mouse butt out of that bale feeder. 😂
The rain has been intense and the fog!

That's a much better barn to keep them dry! Evan you need to put some bedding in there for the animals!

They will be a lot warmer now. nice.
One of your best music/edited yet !!
Need to put down some old hay or straw for them to lay down in
So glad you got the cows and sheep in a better place.
Hi, Evan and Rebekah! You two work so well together. This video is delightful. I love watching Rebekah interact with the animals.
You. Two work well together. Good for you. And. Good luck
The most ideal would have been a concrete floor,you'll krrp putting in gravel over the years of cleaning it out, and a couple of bostalls will be an asset in there as well.
LOL. You may have to make a second opening since Maya is guarding her hay !😊
I don't see any lambing pens in the white pole barn. Lambing season is about to begin and you may want a few.
That cow is awesome
You have accomplished a lot this fall and winter. Some old hay covering those stones would be good, grinding their knees against stones when they are getting up is not going to feel very good and can cause a bruise and swelling-
I saw a little mouse running behind Rebecca 4:34
I don't think you would have had any trouble with the sheep getting through the board fence. The boards are close enough together to keep them from getting through.
Why not throw some straw down so they would.
have something to lay on? Plus it might help keep them warm.
Yes your right on that one

A lime packed floor would be all you would need for your barn. That way when you clean it out and spread it, a little lime will help the fields. Considerably cheaper than concrete.
If you want the siding to stay intact you might like to put boards around the inside and if manure builds up it will also push walls out . Just saying
Thx again
Great Video, a nice improvement for the Animals...
The cows need a livestock scratch post!
hey Evan and Reb, Good ove you to do whate you did with the Livestock .
Never has a domestic animal been so fortunate as to be cared for by you guys! You exercise your dominion over the animals in your care like God intended. (God said we can eat them)😂
Great work, great teamwork...............last time my wife helped with yardwork she got lost in the yard......
Panel at frost free hydrant needs bracing. They will push and rub against it
Need wood chips or straw on floor
Put some bedding down to so they can lay in something warm
Glad to see the cattle chute going inside, expensive piece of eguipment to leave out to the weather, I've watched farmers try to use them once they get rusty and it can get dangerious
You could put the cattle chute in the corner where the metal was and cut a door there to allow them passage
Looking good. Put down some old hay for bedding to keep them warm.
Hay on ground for cows to bed on would be great. Sheep would use it too
Awesome, they look so happy! A change is always enriching anyway.
Love watching your channel, the weather here in Scotland very stormy with lots of rain. Keep Safe.
Why don’t you half fill your tyres with water , it was the only way we could get the weight on the rear tyres other wise the tractor bounced when you had a plough on , so when you have a 28 foot plough you need to have plenty of grip , had a big farm paddocks went from a thousand acres to a hundred , I like your show and love watching you use all the old gear , oh today’s temperature was 40c heading for the rest of the week , all the best from Australia 🇦🇺
Good work. Was hoping to see some bedding straw in there. Should be fine. Thanks for sharing.
Rebecca you can do evans back with that brush hahaha.
Thank you so much for sharing! Always enjoy!
How about a wheelbarrow to pick up some cow pie s in the new barn, Lot of work but great job and the animals are better for it , Thanks
Glad you fenced off the hydrant. You know how animals love to rub and break things or turn the water on. I have a similar situation in my barn and I really need to build something more permanent around it. thinking almost a sturdy frame with a door to keep livestock out and also allow me to open it up nicely for me to use. tall enough to be able to access the handle to turn on and off.

Great new space for the animals!! Love it ❤ So glad yall got this all done. 😊 very nice.
Hopefully the animals don’t destroy all the tin inside and out on the barn before you have a chance to put up protective Pens and fencing. Great channel.
Enjoyed. Thanks for taking us along.

That came out very very good for you and animals Love it
you should try a cow scratcher
Thanks Guys
Looking forward to seeing the progress you guys make!
💖💖💖💖💖💖
Like what your doing with the farm there. That was a nice transition of the barn for the animals. Thanks and have a good end of week.
It got cold to quickly but it looks good I know they will like it!!
exciting activities
Awesome job
