I still can't decide whether a duck's favorite drug is Duck Weed or Quack.
Very funny :-)
When duck fly upside down it quack up 😃
Lol
No guys, he's not quite back yet. This is old footage from Spring 2016 that I am getting around to editing. We're trying to make a few videos right now, but we have had to shelve most until mid-late April when his eyesight is projected to be mostly restored in the left eye. Thank you guys, we're getting there.
Bob wants everyone to know that he is going crazy not being able to keep up with replies or message folks back on here and facebook. He's looking forward to hopefully being able to take a goodly portion of the summer to get back to everyone. Still reading all of the comments to him though.

Bob Hansler hang in there bob.
best wishes from Arkansas.
Bob Hansler Hey there, just another fan from Arkansas! Thanks for keeping us posted.
Bob Hansler - ANOTHER fan from Arkansas here! Keep it up. I just found your videos yesterday and binge watched a lot of them... When I came upon your announcement about your medical issues I was deeply saddened. I've shared your videos and story with several friends and coworkers at the veterinary clinic I work at. We're all huge fans and appreciate your deep connection with nature and the land. We're sending all the positive energy we can muster and look forward to seeing new videos again soon! =]
Bob Hansler don't push yourself too hard bro it will make it worse 2years ago I was hit by a drunk driver and my right leg got crushed it took me almost a year in a half to get my leg were I can walk on it I'm just getting back to running and. hiking your videos have made the time go by a lot faster so much physical therapy we all love your videos and learn alit from them get well soon bro
What an amazingly good wife Bob has in you Shauna. I can't imagine how incredibly heartbroken you must have been and what a burden all of this has been on you, in taking care of him and watching over him, leading and guiding him, helping be an avenue for him to vent frustration with not being able to get up and about--I hope not too many arguments or fights have arisen from this (I have a back disease and the immobility I experience sometimes can lead to the rare heated discussions with my wife from time to time)--but I think you may be an unsung hero here, and I want to tell you that as a huge fan of Bob's I sincerely appreciate all you are doing to take care of him and help him get back to making great content for those of us not fortunate enough to have land like his to use. His videos have always been a way for me to escape from the cramped office and help me deal with being inside all day, especially during the darker, colder months from October to February. Thank you again and hopefully you're not going too insane with the burden and stress of it all!
Oh, and say hi to Bob for me :) He and I have communicated a couple of times on Facebook.
All the best, and God bless,
Daniel
I cannot get over that dog. She is in complete paradise standing there with him in the water lol.
well the swamp probably smells like butt so i can see why a dog would love it
Aha! Reminds her of old friends!
That dog looks sleepy and looks like it wants to lay down somewhere but can't. But it's too loyal to complain.
I like how he’s completely indifferent no matter what Bob says or food he might offer
What type of dog is it?
I feel like a butterfly net could work mildly well for collecting duckweed
Lived in Texas my whole life and never feared of eating duckweed. I fought it for a couple of years in my stock ponds in Austin. I think that variety had larger leaves. Good tip.
Bob, your buddy there just cracks me up. He looks like he owns Texas. No city dog for sure. Good companion. Im amazed at how he just hangs near you calmly.
Get well friend!
Bob I’m a survivor/ prepper, and I look at this as an awesome prepper food, it’s a food that I can grow in a kiddie pool in my back yard in the open and it looks like pond scum, meaning that even if someone desided to come and take all my food someday there’s a very good chance that they won’t take this, meaning that I can still eat while others may not be eating, it amazing how many other preppers I’ve tryed to tell about this amazing food and how many have no interest what so ever, the number one rule of survival is it’s not about what you want.. survival is about what you need, .. you might want a stake and a beer, but in a survival situation you’re probably not going to get that, ... what you need is food to stay alive with, and this food supply’s that, and in a very small area and very quickly
I actually grow it in a kiddie pool just like you said. I got a 6ft kiddie pool for 12 bucks at Walmart. I use to feed my aquaculture fish.
I'm also a survivalist and a prepped and I hv to agree 💯 duckweed is an amazing to grow and don't really taste bad at all I kinda enjoy it lol stay safe out there
@@shadowx6378 things are crazy these days, you be safe as well
Every time I see that you came out with a video I watch it immediately! Please keep making them. Thank you Shauna for all your work!
I noticed that your dog is always right by your side! she never leaves to wander, that's pretty cool. I don't know that I'll ever be eating duck weed but now at least I know how. Thanks
Me, Ive always love spinach, even the slimy stuff out of the can.
Im intrigued enough Id want to try it.
Erated78 what type of dog is it?
@@Empyrean_Enigma I have that problem with strawberries. Makes my ears and nose itch, anywhere the capillaries are close to the surface of my skin. So that means I only eat fresh, or wild, strawberries two or three times a year.
So I know what you mean. But sometimes the discomfort is worth it.
Cause it knows snakes
was so excited and happy to think that you were back. even though your not, glad to see your mind is working in that direction. happy to here about your progress on the eye front. we're pulling for you👍
I'm glad you can see Bob. God bless you. Thx for vids. You're a lucky man, having such a supportive wife by your side.
Oh, just read the caveat. No worries. I like his campfire stories too.
I crack up at the dog... Bob talks... the dog dozes with a wake me when it's over kind of attitude 🐶
you both owe us nothing. the videos do make us all feel closers to you and keep the prayers going. Thank you for being inspirational. it's good to have positive content and see positivity in today's world of negativity. You both are blessings to all of us.
I just found Bob's channel a week are so ago,so I'm playing catch up. I have so enjoyed his channel and his teaching. I'm totally new at this, at 72 years old. But I've totally been blown away at his knowledge and ability for teaching. I've been praying for his complete healing. God bless you all.
Bob has his self one hell of a good woman and wife I am so glad that he does i love his videos and and I know he will do his best to keep making videos and help people is an outdoors person that has a lot of knowledge that we all need to learn and I know with your help meaning his wife and I am very sorry I cannot remember your name mobile keep making videos and they will be quality videos I truly hope your recovery is complete but you we will have a great life regardless whether you're looking for a stroll or have for our use never give up brother and I know you never will
So awesomely glad you are sharing, despite your ordeals Bob. Your knowledge is spot-on, and your delivery is just perfect. No hype, no "I'm The Greatest". Just solid, real tips. Thank you so much. You ARE the Man.
prayers coming from snowy CT to ya both! love how much that doggie loves you! Looking forward to seeing you all better in some new videos Bob! Your wife is amazing! Godspeed to your recovery!
Praying for you every day!
Nicely done as always, Brother Hansler. I grow duckweed as a just-in-case survival ration. - Mike
that's cool. I haven't seen that stuff for a while. but I didn't no that. hope I never have to eat. and being about the kidneys mines only 50 percent. so yes hope I don't eat none. but thanks for sharing. I was wondering about him always praying daily for him. I seen you said old video kinda figured he didn't have waking stick and I did see him struggle to out the knife in the hole. so I pray he's doing ok. Shir be glad the day he pulls his glasses and says I'm back y'all. it will be a day of joy. but great video and love that fire pit on the wall there that's cool. doing well that off a big rock or mountain wall either way that's awesome. I'll be weighting on next video. god bless take care and sending many prayers and hugs. god bless.
invaluable information brotha. as always. dont sweat trying to make new videos. just heal yourself first. we will all be here when you get back.
Excellent as always! Still here for you brother wishing you a speedy recovery and very best wishes friend
You need to go on that show Alone on the History Channel...
Hope for your speedy recovery, this is my favorite TH-cam channel
Bob you are a inspiration to all of us!!! I seen this video and my heart jumped!!! I can't wait for your eyes to come back to you brother!!!!!! Praying for your Health and healing
Mr Bob more story time sir you are awesome great info in all your videos you are very knowledgeable and I hope you are able to continue the videos due to your eye issues god bless and thank you again
Bob, Great video. Looking forward to when you're back.
I always thought that stuff was bad as in for the pond. Never even imagined it was that good for you.
This is why I like this channel so much. You dont just say you can eat it, how to havest it, and then cook it.
You explain why its so good for you.
Thanks as always. To both of you.
Well done!
hey there bob, its great to see u upload mate!!, i really hope ur doing well with the medical setbacks life has thrown ur way!!!. take care mate... j
Great job Bob. Usually there's some wild onions, wild lettuce, cat briar tips and roots, wapato, box elder tips and plantain close by those swampy areas to add some flavor and additional nutrients. I'd love to come with you sometime and make a mighty fine stew for you.
I always learn something I've yet to know about from you & I appreciate it so much. You've helped me as i heal this time as far as knowledge and distraction. I can't thank you enough
This is good information. I have no doubt I could survive in a swamp since that's where I've spent most of my life in the outdoors but I never knew this stuff was edible. It would really buy you some time to find other food sources like fish or snakes. Also glad to see I'm not the only one who still carries a bowie in the outdoors
well done..keeping you and your family in my prayers...from an old East Tex woodsman
You're the next Steve Irwin! By that I mean you're entertaining, inspiring, thought provoking, caring and wish I could say more. You're just plain awesome, your wife and dog too. Thank you so very much for teaching me so much about primitive survival. Looking forward to your next video! Glad to hear recovery is on track.
Bob you are an absolute wealth of knowledge. Thanks so much for sharing. God Bless ~Lisa
That is classic, Bob stuff info dense on nutrition dense survival food. Thanks, Mrs. H. God bless you.
Glad to see some 'new' material from Bob! Hang in there my friend! Prayers still rolling in!
Thank you for the information🌻
Never know if might be needed
Oh, and COOL DOG!
Huck: So... we're just gonna stand here knee deep in the swamp? All right, then. Lemme know when we're done.
Oi, i love to see u out there being active ,doing what u love. hopefully you can get that tv show deal back that you mentioned some months back. my prayers are with you always.
Thank you I've watched some of you're other videos and I hope all is well and that you're eye is doing better god bless you
Enjoy all the videos very educational , I've done a lot of this stuff for years and still learn lots from you on most videos , thank you & get well soon
Never heard of duck weed until now. I was curious about the green covering on that pond. Sounds like a good food source for wild camping. Thank you Bob and get well and stay strong.
I had no idea. We have a lot of edible snails in the brackish waters here, along with a ton of duck weed. Perfect combo for a survival snack.
Hey man I am a new subscriber and i love your videos. I am Sorry to hear about your eyes. I hope your eyes are getting better so you can continue to do what you love.
- cheers from canada
Hello again brother. Another awesome communication about what you can actually find for food. They taught us how to truly forage for food in Socom 1...and I am SOOO glad that you are bringing this similar knowledge out so that people can know what's truly around them. I don't know what kind of training you personally have had...but speaking from experience you are first rate man...seriously. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge with the world...it's more important than even YOU might realize. I am truly impressed. As always, peace be with you and yours...and give your Pup a big hug for me!😁
Love what we do out here. Reading comments such as your own gives perspective that we lose at times from day to day. Thank you.
I truly appreciate what you do brother. Never lose faith, stay the course...adapt and overcome...and never ever forget to love. ...and my Pup says woof to your Pup!🐕😁...Hoorah!
Plant lotsbof moringer trees. All year round leaves for green food and nutrient dense leaves for cooking. Can stir fried with eggs, make soup.
I learned something for sure ! Thank you
After watching Bob’s videos for a while I came to the conclusion that Bob sure does eat some ,”nasty” stuff!! Lol! But if I’m ever stuck on a deserted island I want to be with Bob so I can stay alive!!!! He’s awesome!!!
We have a ton of duckweed where I’m located. Very interesting and thank you for sharing bro
lol you can even give the dish a name to occupy your time im thinking swamp porridge would be a good name
Good job, keep up the faith! Prayers for you!
God bless you and keep you, Bob! When I saw the thumbnail for this one it immediately grabbed me. We see a lot of duckweed around where I live here in Arkansas, and I had always wondered about it's edibility.
Interesting. I had this show up in my little corner pond after Harvey. Definitely prolific 😜. Thanks for the information. Hope y’all are doing well
My ad was 5 mins long... But I'll watch it for support. Get better soon bob!
with that "prolific reproduction" i wonder if it could be actually farmed. as kind of a salad
Yup, yes you can
I love the dog its the cutest dog ive ever seen😩
First time here. Wow! I'm a fan. Learning a ton. Well done
the ptofessot is finally bac great to see yall
Good video we will still be waiting for your new videos bob when you get healed up
another great video Mr.Hansler
Hang in there Bob, I just discovered your channel and I am hooked! prayers coming your way from Rosenberg, TX.
Greetings from northwestern Arkansas. Raised in Houston, I remember the Richmond/Rosenburg Czech culture, and polka music on KFRD radio.
Ah, another Great video from you, Thanks for it and all the information bout Duck Weed I've never tried this. But, I bet I would like it because I like all the other Green's from the floor. Thanks for putting up and Editing another Great video too. Remember Friend I'm Still Praying for you Both. Bless you Both also. The Lord does Love You two...........
I have a pond full of fish, trapdoor snails, frogs, duckweed, horse tail, dandelions, and cattails. The fish eat tadpoles and duckweed. The snails eat decaying matter and fish poop, the frogs eat insects and larvae. In the event of a catastrophe I would have a modest sustainable reserve of sustenance including several thousand gallons of reasonably clear water that could be adequately filtered. Duck weed, cattail, horse tail, and dandelions don't sound particularly appetizing but starvation makes a lot of things taste better, particularly with fish, frog legs, and escargo.
I don't think there is anything edible about horsetail reeds, but the stems have a high content of silicon, making them excellent for scouring pots and pans.
Awesome video
Love this info. I like to try to grow native food sources and I was wondering what exactly do theses need in the way of substrate.
Thank you for this very informative video.
Haven't seen or heard anything from you in a while. Hope you're doing better bob. Miss your videos. Praying for you.
Bob u rock!! Pls get well soon :)
Grows so fast get what is good and make a little pond 10 x 10 and grow a good source
love the video ty ... get better soon !!
that is awesome...I had no idea you can eat duck weed and I've seen it far back as I can remember... I love wild edibles like that briar vine y'all mentioned in another video, I call it cat claw vine and i regularly use it in place of lettuce
Great video....thank you.....by the way you have a new sub.....great videos bro
God I hope everthing goes well with his eyes.
Please let him know people are thinking of him and hoping for the best.
Hmmm duck weed. Two of my favorite things.
Try some duckfoot weed, not kidding you, looks very weird for a MJ plant ;)
Outdoors with Ben agree it is tryout a weird looking Cannabis Plant. Good for growing in your front yard lol
Wonderful, thank you
Thanks for this info bc Im planning on doing a 24 hour challenge in the swamps of Louisiana in the future : )
When we're in the Bayou, we collect this stuff by the bucket full!
Super cool stuff!
..got a good tip from an old timer...older than me even...camp in a grove of cedar trees...bugs hate cedar.
Great videos man.... Makes me want to move to south Texas. The more I watch the more the mid-west doesn't do it for me anymore.
God bless you brother❤
Great video. Hope to see more. I wonder if it can be dried after cook and eaten later?
This good sir knows what he's talking about.
Tons of duck weed around here. The is awesome
I'm astonished but accept your advice. Thanks, Brian 76
Hope you're doing better!
Duck Weed is great animal feed for rabbits and chickens... probably others but my city doesn't let me have much more than small animals so I can only testify to feeding rabbits and chickens, BTW its so EASY to farm duckweed in a small stock tank. harvest almost all of it and leave a little behind and it will rebound fast.
Another excellent video. Would love to take a course from you some day. Sincere best wishes with your health.
I hope your doing really good right now u can push through it and u will be alright I'm praying for u 🙂
Good to see duckweed being featured. The FAO has a good article on duckweed too that deals with fish and animal feeding that is worth knowing. Even if you don't live in a place with large areas of water you can grow duckweed very easily. Yes people do need to be cautious with if they are prone to kidney issues when faced with foods containing oxalate's. On the other hand all that is really needed in a days mixed diet is 100 to 200 grams of mixed vegetation (1/4th to 1/2 pound) per day so you really don't need to consume a lot to benefit from it as vegetation (same applies to other vegetation) and if you are mixed foraging through the day then your total consumption may be far less than is worth worrying about. Oxalic acid in all its forms are toxic to humans but that is a 'spectrum' where calcium oxalate is the most toxic while the acid alone is the least. Phytic acids found in seeds/nuts/beans tend to strip calcium (and other metals) from foods and a good food to strip calcium from is ones with calcium oxalate in them.
Doesn't cooking destroy most of the oxalate?
Quite the toothpick there Bob.
So, based on the last clip regarding oxalic acid:
if you cook wood sorrel (Oxalis acetosella), you neutralise the oxalic acid in it? If so that would be neat! I eat that stuff raw every now and then (tastes like green apple skin!), but never too much -- because I'm one of those weird people who doesn't want kidney stones or organ failure.
Those glass look funny on you BIG Thks
Great video
Pond were i camp it is so thick that i scoop it up with a leaf rake and use it to mulch around my plants
dope video
Hey Shauna, can you tell me what kind of shirt it is that Bob is always wearing in these videos? It always looks great on him and we look a lot alike so I figured I should pick a few up myself. Best wishes.
Yech! All the duckweed I've ever dealt with was in an open waste pond. Basically all the toilets ran out to the open pond and was eaten up by the plants and fish. Wouldn't touch that stuff.
My question is why you don't have a strap to secure your knife in the sheath? I have lost a knife or two when the strap came unfastened. Probably why I really like the deep pouch type of knife sheath now.
