Al watched you rework those feeders. Like the new idea of the metal grate. An even better solution I think would have been to also make the feeder narrower at the bottom so the hay would all be accessible to the goats. As it is now the feeder will fill will hay that they can't reach. Most mangers I've seen have this angle to them. Just a thought. Enjoying your videos and look forward to seeing them every time. Keep up the good job.
Another great week of Lumnah videos.Animals,eggs,shed build,car port,cooking,prayer and good food and family.What more can you ask for.Thank you for another week of sharing all you do with us.Bless you all.
You two have a real partnership. Parenting, building, cooking, baking, editing and creating Loving Lives! Your family is awesome... Twenty-nine years for my husband and I so we know what it takes to make a really good one.
My grandfather used to cook (boil) a lot of the garden fodder that his pigs were reluctant to eat raw (celery, potatoes, onion skin trimmings, beet greens, etc,) along with other tasty things plus a bit of feed, and once cool enough, serve it in their trough as a mash. They loved having a tasty warm stew!
Hi there. Just wanted to say I love watching your videos and seeing how happy your family is. They bring me a little more hope every time I watch. Keep up the great work God bless your family.
I've noticed it in a couple videos now, your mixer needs some attention/maintenance. A little deconstruction and some food grade grease will quiet it down, protect it from overheating damage and extend the life of it's gears. It would make a great rainy day indoor project, and you could film it and teach everyone.
Al I have to say kudos to you for doing all the work on your farm yourself. You don’t get volunteers or friends to do your planting, build your cold room, greenhouse, remodel your kitchen etc for you! Respect! 👍👍👏🏼👏🏼 woot!
I hope this design works but here is another possibility. We use a similar design for our horses, except the grate is put on top of the hay. Then it simply lowers as the hay is eaten. In your case, the goats could still put their heads fully in the feeder but would have to work to get the hay through the grate. An idea worth considering if there is too much hay left at the back of the feeders that the goats can't reach.
We purchased a metal one for power goats with this exact same design. Does a great job keeping them from just pulling it out randomly and it has her bottom that holds their extra goodies and extra hay. I love do-it-yourself stuff but no need to reinvent the wheel.
Nice fix on the hay feeders, that works very well. Your dinner looked delicious. I love the foods we eat mostly in the fall & winter time, stews, chili, soups and hearty casseroles. Thanks for sharing your day. Have a Blessed day.
Your rolls look awesome. I love beef stew in the cool weather. I always enjoy your cooking and eating dinner segments. I think it’s the reward for working hard all day, coming together as a family and sharing a meal and sharing our day with our loved ones.
Great idea, and the panel was perfect...no waste at all. Stew sounds good and it will warm you up! I love that Gina gets to be at home with you now. How is Olivia liking school this year? May you be blessed with a wonderful family weekend.
I’m so jealous of your weather. Where I live in North Scottsdale, we haven’t had any rain since May. The wild animals have eaten all of my plants down to nothing. Last year we had so much rain, and we actually got almost a foot of snow in the winter. This summer has been mostly watching wildfires from my porch.
Good mornin New Yolk City .... cool here in Pennsyltucky (50's) .... no rain, but the sound of your rain is making me sleepy ~8^) Hope you have a nice weekend AL, Gina & mini-me 23:44 Olivia. Take care.
Another great day on the homestead, minus the rain. Nice job on the hay waste solution. Looks like it's working well. Dinner looked amazing too! Blessings from NE Missouri!
The sped up pieces are funny! You are ingenious. You don’t waste anything! I really enjoy watching you. You’re a lovely family.🤟🏻. LOVE the music while you were preparing dinner! Yay!
Leaves are changing down here too, even noticed a few on the ground this morning. We use a wire hamper for the goats hay feeder, was cheap and easy to install. I really like the tractor port......
Al said on a previous volg that he has plans to cover the whole backside of the barn with a slanted shed roof for the goats to have a dry area and semi-free from snow.
Good morning Al, Gina and Olivia. Good upcycling of the palette material. I hope the holes are large enough. This will also help keep next year's kids from climbing in the hay rack. The stew looks great. Have a nice weekend.
Your videos are the sunshine in my mornings so I save some of one or two to watch on Sunday and Wednesday, but since you had a Wednesday one this week I have more to watch today Sunday . Thank you both again and again 💕💕
Al I would think about putting the wire in on a angle from front to bottom back then they can get there head in but the trough will catch most of what they pull out. I built my sheep feeders out of plywood on the ends and trough with 2/6 side rails and wire mesh angled to the middle of the trough to catch what they dropped, with a hinged roof on it because you get so much more rain I think you would be able to save a lot of hay.
I don't know if your feed store carries it, but if they do, get a bag of dehydrated sugar best pulp. It is left from the sugar extraction process and can be added to feed and grain to increase pallet ability and caloric content.
LOL Today I cooked a pot of beef stew, turned the computer on & here you are doing the same. For you, the weather is getting cooler, and for me the weather is staying the same here in Thailand.
Jill Winger has some amazing and simple recipes,...oh, and did I say YUMMY!! Love the idea cattle panel/mesh for the hayfeeder. That's one I'm going to remember. It's a carport..."happy wife, happy life"...
Hey Al, great idea for the goat feeder, it will be interesting to see if they will be able to get to the last of the hay as it empties. If they can't you could put a board as a false bottom all the way across at a 45 to the back wall, maybe sand it a little smoother than rough sawn, that way the hay will always slide down to the front of the cage where they can reach it and hopefully eat it till it's all gone.
Projects even during rain. I applaud your gumption as I would feel too lazy. What spices did Gina use for the second set of crescent rolls? They turned out looking so good. And don't get me started on the beef stew. Oh my goodness, my mouth was watering. Bless you all.
Great improvements Al & Gina. Shavings! So happy to see them and they will work for you so well! Pallet racking racks are some sturdy steel for sure and you must have loved working inside! 👍🌱🏡❣️
Great improvement on the feeders. So glad you have begun saying gall is on thr way rathet thsn winter. Fall is just right. Or at least it used to be. We will see what it brings this year.😁
Those crescent rolls looked easy and good! I think i have a Prarie Woman cookbook somewhere. Most of my books are packed, pending a move. Stew is one of my favorites, too. I like to cook things that need a good bit of chopping slicing, and stirring.. lol
That's a great idea! I love to see you two back in the kitchen. Enjoy your hot meal. Pretty chilly here this morning too! Have a great weekend. Jo Jo in VT
Beef stew...Yummy!! I'm waiting for our weather to cool down ,it been in the 80's, so I can make stew. The goat seem to have grown-up over night... Wow! Your meat birds are big too! Thank you for sharing your journey. God bless.
Red leaves already! That 'wasted' hay will do wonders for your garden. Meat birds look about ready. Now to look up a recipe for those crescent rolls. Yum.
Great job on the hay feeders. The boys are always chillaxing, they seem well settled in. I haven't been watching you all for all that long but it looks like Olivia has grown a foot. Quite jealous of your weather this morning it started out at 85 degrees with 80% relative humidity, it was 97 degrees by noon, heat index 107 in the shade. Brisk mornings don't happen for us until November. Great video thanks for sharing your homestead with us, Jimmy
While the old cuts seem to go out of fashion I still get ox tail and give it 24hours in the slow cooker to make the most delicious, unctuous stew packed with flavour from the bones just what you need on a cold day.
Use mesh and not wire so that there is some give when the goats push on it. Or you can use slow feeder nets and stuff the hay in them, place these in the feeder and that would work well too. Slow feeders are great as they slow down the consumption (keeps goats busy longer) and very little waste.
Very productive day. With the shop work never has to stop. Nice rain, we hope for some soon --- I think it rained once in July. Very dry and cracked land. Your stew looks great and I know what you mean about buying beef from a reliable source. We are able to buy longhorn beef at our farmers market in addition to pork products, eggs, and chicken. It means a lot to looking the eyes of the hardworking folks who produce the protein we eat. A bit more than the store, but that's ok ----no sweatshop protein for us. Joy Giles
Why did u settle living in such cold climate . ? It must be hard ! You don't have much of a summer. Love watching , and the new goats . Moose is cute . Congradulations to Jeanna , she might miss her job though. There's a lot of work in what your doing . Ups, and downs ! Hang in there ! Love, and blessing from a fan !
I really love to see how much smaller Moose is compared to his ladies. Lol I am still partial to Hope as my favorite goat, she's got so much personality and is super sweet. I'm also so impressed with the way you guys come up with creative and low cost solutions to things like this lowering hay waste project! I can't believe that Little Man is almost bigger than Hope already.
Nice modification - smart! Hey Al, how about an update to the Cool-Bot charcuterie room and the items you have hanging in there? Many thanks in advance.
I wonder if when the goat feeder is lower to the ground, the goats don’t have to lift their heads up to eat. Like the original outdoor feeder in Zeke and Caleb’s pen. That might keep the the hay in the feeder. Just a thought! Enjoying your videos, thank you so much Lumnah family!
How often do you reseal your concrete counter top in the kitchen? So what have you been doing with your goat milk this year? Have you tried making yogert or butter?
Love the hay feeder idea. Hay is not cheap to just go to waste on the ground. Very frugal thinking. Do you think the goats are board and need more play ground obstacles and toys to stimulate them?
Love your cooking segments . I ordered that cook book that you mentioned . Not only that because of you using the Instant Pot so much I picked one up today . I was lucky . Bought it for $70 Canadian on sale . Now I just have to learn how to use it . Wish it wasn't raining so you could continue your car port / tractor port build . I look forward to watching your videos . I'm up at 6 in the morning waiting for them to show up . LOL
I think the reason that they did not waste in the old feeder was because they left their heads in it the whole time they were eating. I think the new feeders were not deep enough for them to put their whole head in and still see out the other side. Like it is too close to the wall. I hope the wire helps.
I think that they also might be so used to eating in the natural head down position in the old feeder that they are pulling it out so they can drop their heads while they eat.
Pork and Chop doesn’t seem to eat the same way as Sausage and Links did. It’s interesting to see. I was rewatching a video you did last summer when you were getting the logging done. It’s really really amazing how far you have come. I have and continue to have such fun watching you grow your Modern-stead.
The shelving worked well for a way to keep the hay inside the feeders better. I am looking forward to seeing the woodshed and carport complete, as I'm sure you are too. Great video and good ideas to take away from this channel...like a good pot of Beef Stew!
I think the wiring on the feeders should work well and the goats don't seem to mind it either, so that is a good thing. Yes, fall/winter is a great time for all those comfort foods and beef stew is one of my favorites. Love having those nice warm comfort foods to warm the soul!. Looking forward to more work being done on the woodshed. We are cool here too, but not quite as cool as you guys. We are low 60's in the mornings and today is cloudy from hurricane Dorian. So blessed that all we have are clouds. My prayers are with those that have been in the path of this awful storm.
I hope the wire on the feeders works out for you. The beef stew looks delicious. I though prefer sinigang (Filipino sour soup) when the weather is cool or cold. Then again I will eat it anytime of the year since it's my most favorite food. I even ate it in the Philippines although it was hotter there. I hope to make some for my 40th birthday later this month. We usually eat it with rice, other grains or pseudo ones, or as is. Our preferred souring agent is tamarind. It's the only way I can get my 11 year-old son to eat most green vegetables.
We have had a dry winter too. We are in stage 4 drought in many parts of New South Wales and Queensland Australia. We are now in our first week of spring in the Southern Hemisphere and today it was 84.2 F where I am (Queensland). There is an abundance of dry leaf litter and the trees are mostly eucalypts (we call them fuel on a stick) the mountains to my west are burning out of control, houses are gone and the fire is heading towards a National Park - this is going to be a bad summer for fires in Australia.
Another additional hack you can do to the feeders too is to add a slide board. What I mean is put a sheet from top to bottom in measurement. But the angle is what needs to be in place. So the top of the sheet would be at the back top part of the feeder, and the bottom would be in the middle of the bottom of the feeder. So when you put the hay into the feeder, it slides forward and leeps itself against the cage. Instead of hanging out in the back side untouched until you come and push it forward.
I love that you openly pray over your meals.
This is our favorite channel. You are now gaining about 1,000 subscribers per day...keep doing what you do Lumnah family!
Love the sound of rain on a tin roof. Getting lots of things done, Its looking really good keep up the great work and keep the videos coming. THANKS

How great is that to have a dry barn to work in while its raining? Family time in the kitchen, what a blessing.

Rhonna - l agree - PLUS Al doesn't talk down to us, either.
Cooking up a storm on a rainy day...sweet. Seasons change and the colors are glorious. Olivia, you are such a great helper... keep it up.
I am surprised you didn't use your Instant Pot for your beef stew it does a fantastic JOB and I love it for sure.
I hope this design works but here is another possibility. We use a similar design for our horses, except the grate is put on top of the hay. Then it simply lowers as the hay is eaten.

Adding the 4x4 panels to the feeders is genius Al! 💭
We purchased a metal one for power goats with this exact same design. Does a great job keeping them from just pulling it out randomly and it has her bottom that holds their extra goodies and extra hay. I love do-it-yourself stuff but no need to reinvent the wheel.

Margaret Bedwell agreed those are my favorite dinners as well. I’m sick of bbq and salads.
I would think that if you put a angled floor in them it would bring the uneaten hay towards the front
Exactly what I was thinking!
Oh that's a really good idea.
Your rolls look awesome. I love beef stew in the cool weather. I always enjoy your cooking and eating dinner segments. I think it’s the reward for working hard all day, coming together as a family and sharing a meal and sharing our day with our loved ones.
How wonderful Gina can be home helping on all projects including yummy looking meals. I can tell Olivia is loving it. God Bless you dear family!
We raised all our children around the dinner table. I’m glad to see a family who eats together at a table and not in front a tv.
Oh yum! That beef stew looks amazing!!!! And homemade crescent rolls!😋🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐💜🙏💙
Great idea, and the panel was perfect...no waste at all. Stew sounds good and it will warm you up!
I love that Gina gets to be at home with you now. How is Olivia liking school this year?
May you be blessed with a wonderful family weekend.

Egg wash would've browned those beautiful crescent rolls. I love your menu planning. Simple and good.
The sped up pieces are funny! You are ingenious. You don’t waste anything! I really enjoy watching you. You’re a lovely family.🤟🏻. LOVE the music while you were preparing dinner! Yay!
Leaves are changing down here too, even noticed a few on the ground this morning. We use a wire hamper for the goats hay feeder, was cheap and easy to install. I really like the tractor port......
You need a roof extension over the outside hay feeder so the goats will be able to come out at least that far out on a rainy day.
I'm sure they'd appreciate the protection from snow as well.
Al said on a previous volg that he has plans to cover the whole backside of the barn with a slanted shed roof for the goats to have a dry area and semi-free from snow.
It would cut down on the pee smell inside during the wet and snowy months also.
Thankyou for showing such us a wholesome, family endeavor. Heartwarming to watch ya'll working together making the meal. Keep up the good works!
watching Olivia buyer the croissants... She seems to have grown over the summer. Love how she like to feed the animals
The old hay would make great mulch on the garden, if you have any fall crops 🙂
Looks like a very productive day ! God bless you all !
Any chance Gina you’d share the stew recipe and croissant recipe, please? Looked amazing!!
Cookbook link in description for the crescent rolls
Recovering Soul so you have to purchase the cookbook for a recipe?
Nice to see another cooking video. That is a LOT of crescent rolls. Looks great. I just love your kitchen.
Good morning Al, Gina and Olivia. Good upcycling of the palette material. I hope the holes are large enough. This will also help keep next year's kids from climbing in the hay rack.
The stew looks great. Have a nice weekend.
Love watching you and your sweet family...Keep up the great work...Your farm and food looks wonderful..God Bless❤
That looks sooo good my mouth turned into a waterfall when she pulled the lid off!!! I didnt expect it to look like that.
I love the 'boys' ... they are so chill
Your videos are the sunshine in my mornings so I save some of one or two to watch on Sunday and Wednesday, but since you had a Wednesday one this week I have more to watch today Sunday
. Thank you both again and again 💕💕
Great video. Not sure which I enjoy more; the farm growing/improving or the cooking videos. Both inspire me. Keep it up.
Al I would think about putting the wire in on a angle from front to bottom back then they can get there head in but the trough will catch most of what they pull out. I built my sheep feeders out of plywood on the ends and trough with 2/6 side rails and wire mesh angled to the middle of the trough to catch what they dropped, with a hinged roof on it because you get so much more rain I think you would be able to save a lot of hay.

I love no-waste feeders! I use the 2 x 4 field fencing that I had purposely left over from fencing.
Projects even during rain. I applaud your gumption as I would feel too lazy. What spices did Gina use for the second set of crescent rolls? They turned out looking so good. And don't get me started on the beef stew. Oh my goodness, my mouth was watering. Bless you all.
You guys rock, you guys means you two, daughter, cat & dogs. Give me a call when the stew is ready. We love beef stew.
Genious!!! Love the feeder fix. Way to think outside the box.
That stew looked amazing, and those homemade croissants had my mouth watering. Keep on homesteading.
Goooood morning!! Hope y'all have a blessed and beautiful weekend!!⚘
Oh my gosh... those rolls are beautiful. I can't wait to try them. Thanks!!!
Great improvements Al & Gina. Shavings! So happy to see them and they will work for you so well! Pallet racking racks are some sturdy steel for sure and you must have loved working inside! 👍🌱🏡❣️
Great improvement on the feeders.
So glad you have begun saying gall is on thr way rathet thsn winter. Fall is just right. Or at least it used to be. We will see what it brings this year.😁
Those crescent rolls looked easy and good! I think i have a Prarie Woman cookbook somewhere. Most of my books are packed, pending a move. Stew is one of my favorites, too. I like to cook things that need a good bit of chopping slicing, and stirring.. lol
That's a great idea!
I love to see you two back in the kitchen.
Enjoy your hot meal.
Pretty chilly here this morning too!
Have a great weekend.
Jo Jo in VT
Neatly done, Al & Gina! And the stew & crescent rolls sounded yummy! Have a great weekend, folks!
Dinner locked amazing having one of those days here dark, chilly, rainy. Have a great weekend.
I grew up on Long Island.I love the fall and winter and spring.
Al and Gina, once again another great job on the video. I look forward to watching every morning. Thanks.
Beef stew...Yummy!! I'm waiting for our weather to cool down ,it been in the 80's, so I can make stew.
The goat seem to have grown-up over night...
Wow! Your meat birds are big too!
Thank you for sharing your journey.
God bless.
I'm jealous of your weather it's still 104 degrees here in Mesa where Hope is from
Red leaves already! That 'wasted' hay will do wonders for your garden. Meat birds look about ready. Now to look up a recipe for those crescent rolls. Yum.
There is a link to the cookbook in the description
You are good at recycling everything. Wish we had some rain.
You guys are hard workers.. great job. Love watching. Nancy from Canada
Great job on the hay feeders. The boys are always chillaxing, they seem well settled in. I haven't been watching you all for all that long but it looks like Olivia has grown a foot.

Love the hay feeder idea. Hay is not cheap to just go to waste on the ground. Very frugal thinking. Do you think the goats are board and need more play ground obstacles and toys to stimulate them?
I am addicted to your videos. I stay up until I get to watch you.

Henry - the first thing my daughter did with her IP was make boiled eggs ... shells slip off like greased lightning.
OK . Thanks . I will try it .
I think the reason that they did not waste in the old feeder was because they left their heads in it the whole time they were eating. I think the new feeders were not deep enough for them to put their whole head in and still see out the other side. Like it is too close to the wall. I hope the wire helps.
I thought the same thing when they 1st built them.
I think that they also might be so used to eating in the natural head down position in the old feeder that they are pulling it out so they can drop their heads while they eat.
Nice family, Nice farm, Nice animals!
Good morning folks! I'm getting my Lumnah fix early today! Sweet!
I haven't even had breakfast yet and now I'm ready for supper, thanks a lot. HaHa. It all looks so good. God Bless
Pork and Chop doesn’t seem to eat the same way as Sausage and Links did. It’s interesting to see.

Save the old hay that the goats waste and feed it to the pigs
Now I am craving Beef Stew!!
Looked delicious!!
Time to make some.
@@LumnahAcres Still in the 90's here during the day. Good to see the hint of fall colors today. NC here.
@@glendaruff125, I am NC too and although it looks delish, I'm with you on waiting a bit for soups and stews! 😊
I think the wiring on the feeders should work well and the goats don't seem to mind it either, so that is a good thing. Yes, fall/winter is a great time for all those comfort foods and beef stew is one of my favorites. Love having those nice warm comfort foods to warm the soul!.

Loved the video! Hope the feeders work! The beef stew and rolls really looked yummy 😋! Have a great weekend!💕
Hope, you want the “goat pro” or the drill? Lolz, they’re so cute, smart idea using the grate in those feeders, every penny saved counts✌🏼🤟🏼🤞🏼
If you put an angled back plate in the feeders, the hay will slide forward as they eat it. Some galvanized flashing would work.
I love to see how everybody works together even with dinner everyone had a hand in making the rolls
I hope the wire on the feeders works out for you. The beef stew looks delicious. I though prefer sinigang (Filipino sour soup) when the weather is cool or cold. Then again I will eat it anytime of the year since it's my most favorite food. I even ate it in the Philippines although it was hotter there. I hope to make some for my 40th birthday later this month. We usually eat it with rice, other grains or pseudo ones, or as is. Our preferred souring agent is tamarind. It's the only way I can get my 11 year-old son to eat most green vegetables.
That stew looks absolutely delicious. I’ll give it a go. Many thanks to you all for your excellent videos.
We have had a dry winter too. We are in stage 4 drought in many parts of New South Wales and Queensland Australia. We are now in our first week of spring in the Southern Hemisphere and today it was 84.2 F where I am (Queensland). There is an abundance of dry leaf litter and the trees are mostly eucalypts (we call them fuel on a stick) the mountains to my west are burning out of control, houses are gone and the fire is heading towards a National Park - this is going to be a bad summer for fires in Australia.
"Just needed some Persuasion," LOL! You're amazing, Al, you cook, too! What I wouldn't give for your countertop!

Another additional hack you can do to the feeders too is to add a slide board. What I mean is put a sheet from top to bottom in measurement. But the angle is what needs to be in place. So the top of the sheet would be at the back top part of the feeder, and the bottom would be in the middle of the bottom of the feeder. So when you put the hay into the feeder, it slides forward and leeps itself against the cage. Instead of hanging out in the back side untouched until you come and push it forward.
