SUBSCRIBE and help support the channel. And don't forget to drop a comment. It helps us to build this channel into something special. We're transforming this 90 acre property into a self reliant homestead and farm stay vacation rental. We're building infrastructure to accomodate future growth such as barns, duck house, 7 coop chicken house, water hydrants, planting an orchard, building a garden etc. Chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, barn cats and two old english sheepdogs make up our team here at the farm. Please follow along on our journey of transforming this place into something special.
I seriously want to pet them all 🥰
I click on your videos immediately! Love the kitties!
Haha very nice ♥️
Well, she sure looks pregnant to me! 113-115 days until she pops them out. I can't wait! The pictures of full sized mini-pig females don't have bellies like hers! Darling's garden is looking beautiful with her harvesting basket. What?! Baby geese? Oh my gosh, so adorable! I thank you for your channel. It's the only one I watch that calms me from what's actually going on with our governments.
That’s what I think too, her belly wasn’t that big before that’s why I said she may be preggers, trouble is I have no idea of the conception date so it’s just wait and see situation. Thanks a million for the kind words, keeps me going.
It’s good to break up the grass clippings so they don’t form clumps. Sometimes the grass clippings clumps get slimy and nasty. Frequent turning helps but it’s easiest to break up the clumps when you add the grass to the pile.
Love your farm and life on the farm.
Aww thanks. It’s a dream come true that’s for sure 😉
Wow, that mechanized wood splitter is great! A lot of years with the axe and splitting maul.
Oh yeah it saves so much time and fatigue.
Love to see this, my dreams since I was a child
That’s lovely. It’s like a dream come true for us. Amazingly Rewarding and satisfying. 😊
Getting closer to 100k subs👍😀 I think I subscribed when you had less than one hundred. Making progress.😎
Yeah you were one of the early ones and still here too thanks for that. 😊
Morning Chad. There is so much new life between the new chicks and gosling. I am so happy for your harvest in the garden. I cannot wait to see the corn and pumpkins. Did you two plant sunflowers this year. They were huge last year. Still waiting or hoping for piglets. Chewy seems to be more friendly. Have a great day everyone.
Some corn is coming up but definitely not as many as I planted. We did do some sunflowers using the seeds we got from the last harvest, they’re about 6” tall now. Thanks so much for the comment 👨🌾
7:57 I love your composting setup, and I like to use something like that, just some pallets staked up, and if you wouldn't mind my input, in Northern Pennsylvania, I like to keep it open to the air, but I'm of course not sure what your rain and such is like. Keep farming hard!❤
Yesss new videooo fozzie bear starting it off 😍
Yeah he such a cool relaxed cat 🐱
Well done Chad. 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦
👨🌾
You are living the lifestyle that i need hahaha ❤..... much love from chicago
It is truly rewarding and fun 😊
Good job
😊
Looks like Bobby gets more food with his new roommate. More sharing going on. The3 amigos are so 🥰 cute together, especially when Chewie loves on Bobby just like Billie loves on Olive. The garden is looking just wonderful, especially the baby Bok choy!
Chewie’s behaviour with The two pigs is so unexpected but amazingly cute. He’s coming around nicely. I’ve never had a fresher bok choy stir fry. 😊
Lucky guy!
I have my own ducks and I find them very therapeutic…I also enjoy watching your farm as it makes me relax.
Good for you, so relaxing eh. 😊
❤❤❤
😊
Awesome video Chad. The vegie garden is looking good. I am looking forward to you flowers blooming. Love the new hatchlings. So cute. Chewy is getting very adventurous. That is so good. Thank you so much for sharing. Lots of Love to you all. ❤❤❤❤

My favourite in the garden is the Annabelle Hydrangeas, they have huge white heads of flowers and are very showy. Phlox is nice too. We’re always excited to try to get everything blooming at the same time. 🌺 🌹
Morning ☕️☀️🐓🐈⬛
Perfect timing. Something to watch while I prick out my lettuce 🥬 seedlings 🌱 😊 thank you
Awesome and good morning. We’re getting some nice mixed lettuce already. Bok choy did very well too. 😊
@@HiddenSpringFarmyeah…your garden looks great!
Always enjoy thanks for fun and learning. How many rosters per hens? 1-12? Darling has a perfect garden and knows so much, must be a really good cook. Still have to catch up with yur other vids. Have you tried Hollyhock flowers? Luv u both❤😊
My personal guideline is 7-10 hens per roo, but I’d still only keep 1 roo per flock. We haven’t had great success with hollyhocks over the years, but we haven’t tried them here yet and they’re so beautiful and tall. And yes my Darlin is an incredible cook and she enjoys feeding me too 😂
Chad,
Watching Chewy behavior in this video, when he closed both eyes to you, cats don’t normally hiss and meow in that way.
One eye blink, they’re saying I love you. If you do a one eye blink, you’re saying I love you back. They understand what you just told them.
I would say Chewy was either hurting, ate something bad or got bitten by something. He was trying to tell you that he needed your help to get better.
Animals if don’t get the help they need will go off somewhere to die. It’s not your fault.
I just recently watched the video after he went missing, or I would have messaged you sooner.
When cat or dogs become injured, they become more aggressive towards their owners.
I’m sorry to hear that Chewy is still missing.
Also, when Dexter climbs your leg, he wants to be held.
Male cats are better hunters in my opinion, from experience.
Always enjoy your videos, well except for the pigs, just don't like watching them.
Hope you're fully booked for the whole summer season.
💛 from 🇨🇦.
Thanks so much, hopefully I have enough variety in the videos for everyone. Maybe thats why you always watch and I appreciate that. The cats are like that too…some love em, some not so much.
How do you keep from inbreeding the gosslings?
We have 2 pairs of geese for 2 years now and actually this is the first year I hatched them. I’ll either sell some or harvest some but won’t breed them. They will mate though, it’s up to you if you want to breed to separate your breeding pair for a while so you know.
How much is animal feed a month?
I’ve never broken it down by month before but a trip to the feed store will cost like $300. It’s way more in winter as no animals are on pasture.
