You really should consider changing the name of your post because it leads people to believe you're going to teach them how to build a stable for under $1700. I thought it would provide a list of materials, how much they cost & where to get them, etc So I watched for 15 minutes waiting for something to teach me how to build a barn for under $1700! That's my fault though, because after watching it just a few minutes, I knew it wasn't going to teach me what I'm looking for but I just kept watching it anyways because it was a cute video, & you have a beautiful family.
Nice job putting the fencing on the correct side of the posts. Nicely designed run in shelter.
Thank you so much!!!! We really like how this turned out for sure! :) It was simple but works perfect for us...
~~~ Your channel makes my old heart feel good , I do Thank You for that . I do enjoy your videos . We all see how day by day your family is making your Homestead. May you have farm safety on your Homestead and good health . Your making a home for your children , using so much LOVE .......My I say my friends...GOD'S JOY....Dave here
Thinking of Others-thank you!!!!!!! We are excited to be building our homestead. It’s really coming together:)
@@CollinsCountry ~~~what a joy to hear my friends.
Nice horse! Nice barn! Lovely family! My horses had a nice wooden barn but then they ate it!!!!
+Janet Wells Thank you!!!! :) We are new to the horse world. After we built the barn with poplar on the inside someone told us that horses love to eat it! Apparently our horse is picky because she hasn’t eaten any yet! :)
Love your build! Please be cautious about the muddy areas It’s not very good for their pasterns and suspensory ligaments to walk in deep muck, be careful!💕 horse is precious ⭐️
+Stacey Friedman’s Hello there! Thank you! Very sound advice:) We took that into consideration when choosing the building site for the pasture and stall. We live in the hills of Kentucky so run off here is good but it stays cold in the spring and rains a lot, so muddy is definitely a challenge before the hot summer hits. We have had the horse a few years and haven’t had any issues:) It has been a blessing! Thanks so much for the advice! Have a great week!
Heck yeah! Beautiful family congratulations
+LaLa McQuoid Thank you!!! ;) We love it:)
Such a cute family ❤️ blessings
+Alma Delia Ortiz Thank you very much!!!! Blessing to you too!!!
So pretty there!
+Arizona Insider thank you!!!! We love it!
That’s so cool! In the future I would like to have a little farm with about 10 horses and chickens lol I would also love to breed if there is any tips about building or anything I need them so feel free to give me any!
What kind of tree did you use for posts and did you treat them with something? Some people burn them, or put some oil on them or a coat them with sonething with cooper in it.
Love ❤️ Love it.
+Alma Delia Ortiz Thank you! We love it too! It turned out great and Tigerlily loves it! :)
Very cool guys. Love from Australia
+Ano.thehorses THANK YOU! :) And Australia?!? SO COOL! Never been but it’s definitely on our bucket list! :)
I like her, and so this method makes sense, as it should 💖
+Kacinohealani Gallagher Thank you very much!!!!!!! ;)
Beautiful horse!
+Marcos Acosta Thanks! We love her 🥰
Good video! You're living my life in 2 year I hope! (We have the property but no time to build)
I will give some unsolicited advice that putting a horse on a slope can turn into a mud pen if the drainage sucks or there aren't alternative pastures to let it dry out. I grew up on a hill and our horse had mud around her paddock, we had a slope leading to a flat spot and that's where we put the shelter. The first few years weren't bad but it got gross eventually. Hopefully you have planned for this but if not having full sun on the area will at least dry it up! Also the more acreage the less you have to worry. I didnt catch where you mentioned the space but I like this rule (I've heard many), first horse is 3 acres and 1 additional acre per other horse.
+AmericanGothic Thank you! Good luck with your house build! You’ll have to post pictures on one of our videos so we can see it when it’s done:) Also- great advice! We love tips and tricks that people tell us. We are new to the horse world and I really wish someone would have told us this info about the slope beforehand. We do have good run off because our property is very hilly but her hooves leave big holes in the mud and then when it rains they hold water. It does get a lot of sun but it still gets super messy when it rains. Her pasture is 2 acres. We are working on fencing in another 4 acres pasture on our property to alternate so we can get an additional horse. Thanks for all your help! We will definitely take your info into account when building our next horse barn
@@CollinsCountry I absolutely will keep ya updated! You guys are very authentic to watch and that's hard to find on these farm YT, a lot of it seems scripted or planned! Your content wasn't a bunch of fluff, just some cuteness mixed in with the goods.
Have fun with your horses for me! I'm scheming to buy and board while we build our own zone but I really should be patient so I'll try to live vicariously through YT. Might not work lol.
+AmericanGothic Wow. Such kind words! You have no idea how much we appreciate it! :) We started our channel as just a fun way to document our journey for friends and family. We had no goals when we started it (and I basically still don’t 😉) but it has slowly grown into something. It’s kinda a little hobby for us now. Something we enjoy doing and something we will enjoy watching 50 years from now. Our videos definitely aren’t scripted but sometimes they probably should be 😂 We just want to be ourselves. If people like it then great, but if they don’t that’s completely fine too. Anyway. Now I’m rambling (that’s why we need scripting sometimes! Lol). But good luck with everything! You can make all your goals and dreams come true if you work hard enough! Keep at it and keep us updated with your progress once you start
There’s a lot of work that went into that and the paddock fencing. This is not to take away from the work you did, but I was expecting from the title of this video to see a small barn with a stall(s), and to get a list of materials and costs. That structure is actually a run in - it looks just like our run in.
Thank you for the feedback! We always appreciate the honestly:) This was one of our first youtube videos. Unfortunately, we had no idea what we were doing back then. We didn't realize what info we needed to put in the videos, etc. Anyway- We have learned a lot in our small youtube journey and now we include every single detail in every video. I will get a list together of supplies that were in this project and add it to the description. Thanks again for your insight. And yes, it technically is a run in, but in real time we have added a lot more to it making it a stall. We will make the corrections:)
Really nice and genuine family video. You have an amazing personality!. Sincerely: God Bless You And Your Family.!
Please remember to wear safety glasses when using nail guns. And don’t worry about critics in TH-cam, you don’t have to please everyone.
Thanks for cheering me up with your genuine excitement!. ❤
Great to see your little fella covered in mud!!
Thank you! Our boys love playing in mud and we encourage it! They are only little once and we love them being outside with us!
This is great! I am curious if you just have this for the horses or did you use a fully enclosed one for them too? I want to get some horses and we are trying to decide what direction to go in. Everything adds up.
Hello! And thanks! We have one horse and this works perfect for her. We want a second horse but have not found the right one yet... It's perfect because she can run in when she wants to since it's open. Because of the direction it faces, rain never gets into her stall so it's always dry in there. If I did it over again, I honestly wouldn't change a thing. It has been perfect for us and was inexpensive to build. Good luck with your build!
Great Video! Building in mud is always tough. Great job on the fence and 3 sided shelter. How old is Tigerlily? Are you going to breed her?
Thank you so much!!!! Our boys loved playing in the mud 😂 And Tigerlily is 13. She’s just a pet to us:) We won’t be breading her... But hopefully we will be getting another horse:)
@@CollinsCountry Are you going to get another mare? I would and breed one of them. Baby horses are awesome to have around! 🐎
I would love to!!!! :) But we don’t know enough about horses to do any of that yet. We are new to the horse world. But that would be so much fun! We are good friends with someone that breeds and trains horses so we have a great resource, but I need our life to slow down a little bit first before we get more horses ha
I love this 💚 New subbie here 🙋🏽♀️
+Gods Amazing Thank you so much!!! :)
love this, want to build one for my daughters 2 horses coming home from Alberta, do you happen to have the materials list or cut list or maybe even the rough plans? thx
+Kym Lawrence Hey! We unfortunately don’t have any of that because we just built it as we went with no plans and just kind of made it work… I can have my husband try to get one together though and add it to the description because so many people have asked
How many acres of the horse pasture? Do you want to get more horses 😊? Horses are my favorite animals
Brittany Mason- our horse pasture is 2 acres and our entire farm is 60 acres. We have a lot of trails on the farm to ride the horse on:) We definitely want to get more horses, at least one more. But we don’t want to get another one until our house is done being built because we don’t have a lot of free time right now to side the horses...
@@CollinsCountry hey there! I just replied to your video and saw that you mentioned your acreage here. I highly recommend having a secondary area before+during the muddy season to turn the horses out. You did a mawvelous job on everything though, we only have 13ish acres and we plan to farm most of it so I'll probably be having to section and rotate 1.5 acre plots just to keep it decent, we dont have trees or sloping but we get floods so I have my own problems unfortunately : /
How deep did you dig the posts? How tall were the front posts and the rear? How did you figure out the slope of the roof
+Dakota Hayghe
Hey! The posts are below the frost line so they are about 36 inches. The slope of the roof just ended up this way because we knew how tall we wanted it in the front and the back to be. I can’t remember the exact height of the posts so I’ll measure them tomorrow when I’m off work and let you know.
+Dakota Hayghe Hey! Sorry for just now getting back to you. Here are the dimensions- It’s 24ft across and 12 feet wide. The back posts are 8 feet tall and front posts are 12 feet tall. Honestly, we didn’t put much thought into the roof other than we didn’t want it too steep because we wanted to be able to walk on it to put the metal roof on and for simple repairs in the future. Hope this helps! 🙂
Where are the plans. I’d like to start my very first project for my wife and her horse
+John Dough Hey! We actually don’t have plans for this but I could talk to my husband to see if he could draw some up real quick. This was one of our first videos on our TH-cam channel. We had no idea what we were doing at this point lol. We didn’t know to have a supply list or write out plans. My husband is extremely smart and just builds stuff that he plans in his head, so he never uses plans unfortunately. He just whips stuff together. Anyway. I will see if we can try to write out some plans. It’s a simple design though… :)
Very nice ! What are the dimensions?
Hey! Honestly, I cannot remember. But so many people have asked. We need to go over and measure the barn and count the lumber to get together measurements and a supply list for people and add it to the description. We will try to do that this weekend:)
Do you have a materials list or am I missing it somewhere?
+nick smith Hello there! Let me get the list together for you. This was one of our first TH-cam videos and we had no idea what we were doing… I’ll get the list together and make another comment to you here with the supply list and I’ll also add it into the description:)
hahaha he's so happy being all muddy XD
+✨yaysunny equestria✨ Yes he is! We have 3 little boys now and they all LOVE THE MUD! :) And we love them playing in it!
Beautiful
+Eybaybay Thank you! We love our horse and consider her such a beautiful blessing to our lives:)
@@CollinsCountry that’s lovely and the land you live on is beautiful also. I’m in California so it’s very hard to find something with so much land. I just moved to horse town USA (Norco, California) and have half an acre of land so I’m looking to buy at least 2 horses. God bless you and your family
+Eybaybay Wow. Hello to you in Cali! We have been to California. It’s beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on getting your plot of land and good luck with getting some horses. You’ll love them! ❤️ (also- I have never heard of horse town USA. Now I’m going to look it up).
@@CollinsCountry yeah check it out 😎 👍
+Eybaybay I looked it up. Such a cool concept and a nice looking place to live!!!! I have never heard of such a place. I hope to visit there one day and ride my horse to a restaurant:)
What are the dimensions of your pasture?
+Samantha C the pasture is about 2 acres.
It would be more helpful if you would include a list of supplies, dimensions, etc.
+Eliza Star Hey! We completely agree! This was one of the first videos that we posted on our TH-cam channel. We didn’t know what we were doing back then (lol). Anyway- here are the dimensions- It’s 24ft across and 12 feet wide. The back posts are 8 feet tall and front posts are 12 feet tall. We hope this helps! (I will also update the description of the video this week and add the dimensions and necessary tools into the video. Thanks for the advice. We really appreciate it!
Roughly how much did this all cost?
About $1800.
That was back in 2019 though. Lumber and metal prices have went way up since then.
+Lanna Calnan hey! Without pulling receipts to get an exact cost, I would say it was roughly $1,650 for everything… But of course this was before the lumber prices went up…
Now we could build this for almost free though because we bought a sawmill, so we would only need to buy the metal roof/siding:) If you have access to trees I 100% recommend buying a sawmill. The possibilities are endless!
Gee I wonder why your husband is a hard worker. Could it be the old man that's out there working side by side? Somebody taught it to him.
YOU ARE 100% RIGHT! No one will outwork my husband or his dad .It is such a blessing that my husband had that amazing man to raise him! He definitely taught all of his kids the importance of hard work and dedication! And now my husband is teaching that to our boys:)
Great barn,but the shell is from a tortuous
Thank you! And Good to know! I will inform my son it's from a tortuous. Now I will need to look up the difference between turtle and tortuous:)
For that price they might as well build it.
+@youtubehatestruthtellers8065 exactly. Building structures is actually way more expensive than people think. And it’s so simple
Nice barn build and have to say you got a cute wife
+Larry Simmons Thanks! We love the barn. And yes, my wife is beautiful:)
Now days cause covid all this material would be like 3000 🥲
+Sussy Baka yes 😔 This video was made right before the pandemic started and wood skyrocketed!!!!! If you live on property with trees and are technically inclined, I 100% recommend a sawmill! We bought a sawmill a year ago and LOVE IT! Now we can easily build this entire structure for free by making our own lumber 😉
When you realise that 2019 is 2 years ago 😐
+Kobayashi San I know 😞 This was before the lumber prices exploded!!!
She really wasting everyone's time with this bullshit title 🤦🏼♀️
I feel sorry for that horse cuz it has you guys worst owner ever
+Lidia Andreica Hello! We were new to the horse world 3 years ago when we got her. Fortunately, we are humble people who ask a lot of questions and appreciate education. We have learned a lot and this horse is SO HAPPY AND HEALTHY:) We love her and our 3 boys do too! We are blessed to have her and she’s blessed to have us… Have a good day, and I truly mean that!
Shit barn.
+IloveBaklava Yes, the horse poops in this barn:) But I know that’s not what you meant by your comment. This barn has been perfect for us and our horse but we know this design isn’t the right choice for everyone. I hope you find a barn you like. I hope you have a good day, and I mean that.
Get to the point of the video. Idc about your kid.
+@DONT_MESS_WITH_MY_DINOS lol. This was our first TH-cam video and we had no idea what we were doing 🤣 Thanks for the kind words lol
