Weeping willow trees are good for wet areas. I live in PA and have some planted in low areas on my ground. Plus once you get one started, all you need to do is cut a branch off and stick it right in the ground and it will grow. You can get a lot of trees from just one.
I love how sometimes you mix up your words, or even use words that don’t exist it makes you so human to me also making you one of my favorite TH-camrs. Keep growing brother it’s no surprise you’re doing as great as you are .
Man Blake you've had bad luck with flooding. I'd say put tile drainage pipe in under the ground and let it run out somewhere. Hopefully things get better soon. Here in ohio our farmers use tile which is like drainage pipe under the ground and water runs through the pipes and out to the ditches. It keeps the fields from flooding.
@@cliffordkennelscollection6883 dude you can’t say nothing your subscribed to finatic he literally buys animals for videos than dumps them after everyone on TH-cam knows finatic only buys these animals for views , Blake actually looks after his animals and he does a fantastic job unlike some 🤷🏼♂️
@@bartek1998148 I follow a lot of different people for different reasons! I dont know if purposely allowing your land to flood at the expense of your animals to make videos is fantastic but....
Willow trees work great up north here but not sure if they will in Florida. You should kill out those fire ants while you can. You have a great Sister!
Great job! Thanks for sharing. When my Mom passed the buyers of her house had to have the neighbors to did out their grounds because for years it flooded her back yard and under the house too. Hopefully the neighbors will compromize to help you out.
Damn Florida and this rain man. I know y’all can turn a bad situation into a good one but if you need some help lmk gotta help a Floridian brother out!
I actually like these type of videos better, they are more raw and not planned and it really feels like we’re apart of something 😊 I do hope all animals are okay
The goats are still fighting, despite the rain. Because, they are just special. 😂 thank you for avoiding doom and gloom in such a terrible flood. I wish you well.
The drainage is a woww problem for sure. If everything from the far side of property slops towards the water logged area, youll have to put some of that dirty in the other areas to, because if you put to much drit behind the goat shed the natural flow of the yard will build up and flood the other area. Can dig and put those big black drainage lines along the back fence al the way to the road into drainage. can put one down the path of the capibara (cant spell that) pathway to the back of the property line and hook it to the other one. Just alot of digging. Id say bring the dirt to the far other opposite end and raise and slop just a bit to the back of the property and do your drainage like you said.. it will definitely help.. the turtle area can raise it so the water slops to the front of their enclosures so it can then follow>>>> and keep draining.
The rain in the south is warm rain -- but here in Los Angeles it is COLD - I would never go out in the rain here without a shirt....the rain is VERY cold (it only rains from October - April - and rarely at that).
Thoughts are with you an family and your animals atm , wish I lived closer I'd be over in a heart beat to help you out , you doing an amazing job , your animals are so lucky they have a caring guy like you an your family to watch over them ! Hope weather starts to improve fast for you , take care xxx
White birch trees are like sponges to water you should plant a bunch of those on your property, I pruned one of mine on my land in the spring after the thaw one year (I am from Canada) and water was practically pissing out of the branch I cut lol
Damn thats a scary situation,i now some plants that can help with all the water.For Trees i would say Oriental Arborvitae is the best option cause they can stand the heat and possible droughts and suck water like a straw,now if you want something pretty Daylilys are the best opt. and some Blue elderberry bushes also!Have a nice day...
Aww So Sorry Blake feel sorry for the animals .. pray that it stop raining wow your sister is brave to walk barefoot in the water .. she amazing thanks for the awesome camera work you do for us..
This happened to me and it was the same thing you said. The neighbors did something in their backyard and when it rained I had water up to my back door. My whole yard was flooded. So I feel you. So sorry. You just went through this. Praying for you.
When Blake fell with the goat my first reaction was i put my hand up to my screen to grab him🤣Lol. I got to see my BIG baby girl Moore's again🐂💖... Have A Good One!💖🐂🐐🐢
How about a pump when it stops raining u can pump it out? That’s what we do in our ranch well use too because we level everything and n made a cannel system so the water can go to a man made lake
Baobab trees suck up a TON of water and produce edible fruits that could be useful. Retention pond with added dirt to elevate parts of the yard would be highly recommended as well. Mangrove trees could help but they are better at covert salt water than retaining or sucking up fresh water.
Omg I feel so bad your having to deal with this. I could help laughing when you went down with the first goat. I thought well he will be swimming with the poor goat
Hey blake i wish i could help u but i am in kansas i cant miss work but i do plumbing u need some french drains thats what we call them here its drains that goes around ur goat shed u run your pipe first then you could spread the dirt on top of the pipe that water will drain to what ever you take to ur goat shed whould nice in dry keep ur head up love your ranch
He explained it near the beginning. One of the neighbors decided they want 'dry land all the time' so they brought in dirt and have made the previous natural flow disrupted and three neighboring properties flood. Having a good draining system won't combat arrogance and selfishness.
@@dadzawa_actual how will not combat anythink? 🤦♂️ it will drain his property and surrounding water that comes on to his property.... it’s not up to Blake about other people properties got think about your own.
@@dadzawa_actual thsts what anyone would do! He likes the videos! He can chrck the weathdr and move them before but that wouldn't make as good as a sympathetic video!
Pine trees, lots of pine, pine trees are water seekers they will burst thru your wall to get to water. roots will crawl to water and i don't think they will crawl far there, plus i use to live in Fla. and every year we had to truck in soil and sand to build the ground up i would say you got a costly job coming to stop the floods, may even have to pump some out because some time in the future your looking at majore flood damage to your house, good luck
Its been almost six months since this flood. I really hope you have done something to help alleviate this from happening again. I've lived in Florida. It floods up in the panhandle too, not just in the south. Not fair to the poor animals. I'll keep checking in on ya!
I’m so sorry that flood #2 causing this for you. You can’t catch a break! Of all people, you don’t deserve this! I wanted to watch you bring Captain around...LoL should of tried the BEAR wheel cart to take home around.? Hope the rain stop 🛑 soon!
😲 OMG that look just as bad as it did when the hurricane came through I hope you, your family & all the animals do better I also think it would be a very good idea to dig a mote on the property line at least 3'-4' deep & same with so it doesn't happen as bad next time maybe even make 2 of the sides really wide like 10'
Damn that area floods bad. It's a wonder the county can't help with a drainage system . At least ideas or something. You don't want this to be a yearly thing. Multiple times in a year. I'm so glad you care about your animals. Some people would let them figure it out on their own.
Sorry about the hardship from mother nature Blake did you ever think of making a stilt or raised style of coop for the birds Gucci gang chickens etc... and maybe looking into a form of divert flow irrigation for heavy rains . Keep up the great job and stay up and blessed bud you're freaking awesome 💚
My heart dropped when you fell to the water while having dude in your arms lysm Blake

I was thinking the same thing weeping willows suck up a lot of water!
Nay that's not cold when there's no snow yet 😂🤣 plus it's been snowing for 2 days sucks, but as always what an awesome farm
I love your Ranch Blake your living my dream life especially your fish building. Hope the water drops soon for all your animals
Put those native mangrove trees in the ditch to suck up water!!!
Or swamp cedar
Good idea
True
How you rescue your animals and care for them is amazing your a true inspiration blake
you're
@@jpgriff3 yeah
I like how someone was laughing and Blake's just having trouble carrying the goat
My family 😭
Yeah I was laughing, when he said, because they're just special like that. I could not stop laughing. He so frustrated.

The amount of time blake says 'you ready?' is crazy😂
Sending prayers and hope rain slows down for you and yes the neighbors have to do something that's just crazy they know u have animals
Blake you need a small boat to transport the animals on
Wish I lived local would of come and helped you out

We use that for cattle yards here in Iowa.

Wow thats scary having everything flood like that.
It happens every rain fall!

Blake, the most distracted youtuber there is!! I try to watch these videos but man bro stay on track
You should dig a big drainage ditch over on that side. That’s a lot of extra work for you and stressful for the animals. Great job, Blake!
You guys do a great job with the farm and the newest TH-cam video it was a blast

Where’s all the youtubers now scared of the rain get over an help my man Blake if I wasn’t other side of world I would be there 😉👍
Blake The best trees for drying water are eucalyptus trees
Baobab trees suck up a TON of water and produce edible fruits that could be useful. Retention pond with added dirt to elevate parts of the yard would be highly recommended as well. Mangrove trees could help but they are better at covert salt water than retaining or sucking up fresh water.
And you inspire me to love animals THANK YOU and my dad said that I can get a budgie and all because of you thanks .......☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
Omg I feel so bad your having to deal with this.
I could help laughing when you went down with the first goat. I thought well he will be swimming with the poor goat

The best videos on TH-cam! rain is just trying to stop you but i know you can get through it keep up the good work blake!
A WAP of a Ranch Blake! This is insane
In the intro are you jumping in to your back yard or into the Aqua scape pond
That's alot of work. Hope your animals are okay
Paul was giving away dirt when he was making his pond. You should ask him if he's gonna have more to fill your land.
Yep
Maybe when you dig your other pond you can make some high ground around the barn
Rofl. Wouldn't make as good of content
It might be a pain but as my son would say. Your doing it like a pro. Best of luck to you and the ranch.
Blake put proper drain system in don’t bog it as your have same problems in the Future..

Only if you want it to!
The rain do be pouring in LA too ! Guess its rainy cold weather now
68 comment what up blake you are the best 👍💯💪
Question, why don’t you build enclosures off the ground? And wood platforms? This will keep everyone off the floor so you don’t have to get them.
That flooding is bad,you can send some to San Diego we could use it,good luck with the ranch. :)
Blake need to hire a civil engineer
I hope the flood goes down pray for you and your family that lives with you . And you are a great person and you have amazing animals
I like all of your animals I love animals your are so kind and cearing
How come you haven’t done anything with the land that isn’t leveled and the emus went on?
O Blake not again!! if i lived close i'd be their helping you hope the rain stops NOW! love ya praying for you all
You need some prop soak aways built in to your property. Under ground tubes that run out to the road to carry the water away
Your the man bro. Sorry it keeps happening but you make it work.
