    • @FlatTireFarmHomesteadingAlaska
      @FlatTireFarmHomesteadingAlaska  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Ooooo! No! I did not know that! Reeve still has his original issued ones too! We likely have a lifetime supply of them already. Ha! My Baffin’s are rated for -40°, best boots ever!! They’re good to about -30° in real life. I really like the bunny boots too. But they are a bit clunky for everyday use. I wear them, for sure when it’s -30° and I’ll be outside for long periods of time. I’ll have to keep my ears open for what people say about those new boots. You know how product claims go.Ha!

It reminded be of those skits where they show an unbelievable people exiting a VW.🤣🤣If you couldn't the back wall of the the shelter you'd say there was a hole in the back.🤣🤣Those goats are so cool! My daughter and son-in -law had some, until my daughter came out of the house to go work and saw two tap dancing on the roof of her sports car. That was it for having coats. You guys take care. All the best in the new year!

    Just hearing your footsteps tells me how cold it is. When snow is squeaky, it's cold! 🥶. Still waiting for winter to arrive here in Michigan. I could still have a "fall" garden at these temps. To keep hands warmer, I use medical exam gloves under my warmer gloves. Keeps my hands dry and another layer of insulation.

      Hey friend, Reeve will layer with nitrile gloves if he’s going to be outside for a long snow machine trip sometimes. I don’t like the moisture that collects under them though. Definitely works though. 😊

    -16... mmmmm... yeah. I need whatever the piggos have! We'd have temps like that in MN, but in small doses & thankfully, the really cold temps were caused a lot by wind. So it was more the "real feel" that got ya. It seemed pretty still for you guys in this video anyway. No small favor from mother nature when you have lots to do outside, right? 😁
    On a different note... great minds think alike... when I was watching the goats come out from their "clown car", I said exactly the same thing you did! 🤣🤣🤣 That was hysterical & they looked like it was perfectly normal for 47 goats to calmly come out of a medium sized "dog house".
    Everybody just takes it all in stride! ❤ Stay warm you guys! God bless 🙏🙏

      @Mr.ReeveFlatTireFarm 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Simone! Thanks for thinking about us! In our experience as lifelong Alaskans, we have learned that the heated socks and gloves aren’t the magic that you might think they are. For several reasons. While I have tried them, I have never had one that will last even a single winter with how much we are out in the cold, some don’t get warm enough, some have bigger batteries that get in the way, etc, etc. Growing up in Alaska, you just learn to layer up and change gloves and hats out when they get wet or cold. It really is the best solution for our climate. Thanks for watching!

  • @DustyBottomBoysAK
    @DustyBottomBoysAK 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You guys should have all your animals sign 'Inclement Weather Consent Forms', which absolve you (The Farm) of all animal husbandry duties once the weather reaches certain preset temperature and precipitation thresholds, set entirely by yourselves. Each day that the weather doesn't reach desirable conditions, you can have an automatic email blast sent out to the livestock indicating that the Caretaker's Cabin will be closed until conditions improve, and the animals should take measures to ensure their own livelihood, which may include 'hunker down', or 'shelter in place' directives, until further notice. Be sure to include proper wording that eliminates the ability of the animals to resist, or respond with any collective action against you, which may include threats of physical harm or malice that may be directed towards yourselves. Remove access to any and all implements they may use in such a physical rebellion, and issue strong consequences for any animal that is found in possession of, or believed to be in possession of such instruments. Any animals engaged in, or believed to be engaged in any activity that may be considered as 'inciting violence', or that may be deemed by you as having 'intent to incite violence' or any rebellious acts that may be deemed by you to be an attempt to undermine your authority shall carry harsh and immediate consequences. Do, of course, include the conditions that all livestock shall not be absolved of their daily duties of production which is expected of them for the betterment of the Farm, despite any weather related shutdowns or delays. Any dissenters of these policies shall be immediately culled from the ranks, or sold, live or processed, and used as examples to the other livestock, at the sole discretion of the Farm, and without any prior notice thereof. In the event that a culling has taken place, it is the duty of all remaining livestock to increase personal productivity to a point which the net output of the Farm is not affected by the removal of one or more of its producing members. Be sure to make it well known that any animal that produces more than his or her fair share shall be treated equally as compared to the animals that produce less, or none at all. Whereby no additional compensation shall be awarded for higher productivity in the form of additional feed or water rations, better quality rations, larger or improved access to suitable housing conditions, or any additional access to pasture or free-roam privileges. Be sure to be clear that all of this is to protect the interest of the Farm as a collective, and that the needs of the collective outweigh the needs of the individual; for the benefit of all involved, of course. Don't forget to have each contract signed and witnessed as deemed acceptable by you. This shall ensure that the Farm is well protected and productivity is maximized for your benefit. You may find that implementing these changes slowly and incrementally will be the best course of action, as the animals will be less likely to notice the reduction of their privileges and personal benefits, of course. Just a thought. -Dusty
