In my opinion this channel is not about us, it is about you and what your family does. Stay the course. What you are doing is perfect. Love the videos.
Don't apologize for living your life to the fullest. For those that don't enjoy it they don't have to watch it it's a choice. But you do not have to apologize to us that understand respect and love the lifestyle
Daniel, thanks for all the wonderful videos. I want to comment on the small tag line at the end of each video (Remember to try to make someone smile today, it might just change the world) I try to do that each day and today (it might not change the world) I made a 91 year-old sweet lady smile. I'm 75 and work for a community transportation company two days/week (Mondays and Tuesdays). We primarily pick up and deliver people for medical appointment and then pick them up again to take them home. Not necessarily do the same drivers get to do both, but this morning I picked her up and took her home from a doctor's office. She commented about having been raised in Pennsylvania, spoke of meeting her husband (from Vermont) and eventually moving here. Then I was assigned to pick her up again from another doctor's office to take her home. It was necessary for me to go inside to locate her and there she sat preoccupied rumaging through her purse (pocketbook) and becoming frantic looking for a phone number. I sat down a couple of chairs from her and she never looked up. I asked, "Do you anyone from Pennsylvania?" She never looked up and replied, "Yes, I'm from Pennsylvania!" I replied with, "Yes, I know! You told me that this morning." Now I'm wearing the safety green shirt and cap when she finally looked up at me. I said i was there to take her home as she kept digging in her purse with my comment not registering. I asked her what she was looking for and she said the number to the company that brought her to the doctor. "They're late and I'm worried I can't get home. I've called my son to let him know to come and get me." I repeated, "My name is Bruce and that's exactly why I'm here, to pick you up and take you home." She continued to dig in her purse. I asked her what she was looking for and it was her phone so she could call her son and let him know someone was there to pick her up. She was nearly in tears and I asked if I could help her look and she opened her purse to me and I retrieved her phone. She dialed her son, I spoke to him to let him know who I was and that she was a bit frustrated and confused. He thanked me and called me an angel for being there for her. I smiled and assured him that I was no angel and happy to take care of her. On the way home she wept, thanking me for my kindness, handing me too much money for the ride. I told her such and she said that was for me. Mrs. Reach, I've been paid more than enough by meeting you and for your expressions of gratitude. And you've allowed me to change your misery into a grateful heart expressed by the smile on your face. I escorted her to her door, but before I bid her goodbye, I asked her if I could give her a hug which she allowed. It not only made her day, but she also made mine. Thanks for allowing me to share this with you and to all your followers. Keep it coming and congrats on your new property.
I do just about the same thing. I live in a small rural town. Since the larger town is 30 mile we take and bring back. It feels good helping people. I enjoy what I do.
Please Daniel don't feel like you need to apologize for your content. For those that complain, they can go watch something else. We are here cause we enjoy what you do! wether it is looking after all the critters, working on the pond, fishing, hunting, we happen to enjoy whatever you decide to post. I enjoy your journey. Keep on keeping on Daniel and DeJay and Houston. We are AFH all the way🤗🤗💞💞💙💙
I am a 72 year old woman who was raised in south Texas in the country and I totally agree with the control of predator wild life in order to preserve the wild life used for human food. There have been a few times when money was short and that wild life came in handy to put food on the table. You do you. You have a beautiful family and you are teaching them to be respectful of nature. God bless you and family.
You can never make 100% of the crowd happy, I watch all of your content, regardless of what you post. People that complain about hunting and trapping can choose not to watch it. Please keep doing what you are doing the majority of us love and appreciate all you do.
I just kinda get bugged when MY youtube friends feel they have to apologize for their choices on THEIR channel. I think you content is great, except for all the apologies. LOL It's good Daniel, it's REAL good. Thank all of you for being there and being real. Keep it real, I vote for what we have now. Thank you.
Daniel I just want to say I really commend you for staying true to yourself over the years. You don’t let any of the comments get to you. You are who you are and you’re completely unapologetic about it! People change over the years which is totally normal. Like you said you’re just documenting your journey an if you want to watch it then you welcome them. Those that don’t can move along! I just love and appreciate people that stay true to who they are. Genuine people that don’t change their content for the people in the comments! You have thick skin an don’t argue with viewers over comments and you never let them change your mood! I LOVE IT, I really do and I just felt like telling you 😁❤️
Daniel I really don't care what people think I love watching your TH-cam Videos please keep making them because as viewer I will continue to watch them some of those people don't understand Country Life may God continue to bless you and your Family
I don't enjoy the hunting and trapping part of this channel but the rest of it is wonderful. I simply skip past the parts I don't care for and continue on without complaining about it. You people that complain all the time end up missing out on the best stuff. Daniel and his family are really good people and we should all love them for who they are.
A lot of people just don't know the reason for wildlife management. At least you are teaching the kids good ethical hunting guide lines. To catch a bobcat, use one of your pecan boxes. They are a cat after all. Just might work. Keep up the great videos you're putting out.
I totally agree - I just skip on through until I see the hunting stuff stop in a video & then start watching again. It’s just not my thing but I love most of Daniel’s content, so I stick around for that.
It is so nice to see you and Houston spend time with each other. He has learned so much from you. I just love all your animals. Love and blessings to you and all your family. ❤
What really counts is your living your dream with your family , Its your homestead your pond. , your land to hunt , fish enjoy the life style that you have chosen to live and sharing all of this to us on your TH-cam channel.....😊😊😊 God Bless.....
There is a movie "The Blind" fantastic movie about duck hunting and the life of the guy that created the duck call implement. I think you all would love it, it encompasses his struggles and coming to Jesus as well as heaps of hunting. Really worth watching
Daniel I remember when Huston was just getting ready for head start complaing his heart was hurting and you picked him up early and went fishing.now he has growed up and a very handsome young man.
My sister and I love your channel and the variety. She used to fish and hunt years ago. Love the animals. Love to see a family that works and plays together. We get a big kick out of Houston when he accomplishes something he has set his mind to. The time you are sharing now is so special. Believe me he will never forget these experiences. Just be true to yourself. You are doing fine!
Congratulations on the win Emma! Daniel you do you and ignore the haters. You are making great memories with your children and such great bonding with Houston.
My nephew took his bobcat to a taxidermy and it is beautiful. I would love to have one to display in my house. There aren’t as many young men these days interested in hunting,fishing, trapping and so on as there use to be. It’s nice to see a young man show interest and more importantly to see a dad take the time to show him how to do it correctly. God Bless you and your family.
I am glad you found a good taxidermist. In my experience, the mounted bobcats and cougars that Inhave seen and not that good. They look like scared kittenns, rabid beasts,, or scared, rabid beasts. I have seen a few that were really well done, but most around here... not so much.
Daniel, I so enjoy your videos . Your family is just so amazing and you are a wonderful husband and Father. I love how you talk to your animals. It puts a big smile on my face. I am 71 years old, and your videos just warm my heart. You are a good man, and you have a beautiful wife. Thank you for all you share. Loves from Alberta,🇨🇦♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
The fishing & hunting videos are my favorite. My Dad is in his forever home. My Mom joined him 6 years later. My Dad hunted to provide for his family, including relatives,friends, and people in need without judgment. I'm so thankful for the gift of giving & receiving. 🙏
Whether or not you get any ducks - or anything else, for that matter - will mean nothing two decades from now as Houston recalls the "time with Dad". So appreciative of you and all you do.
We are a trapping family. My brothers were the ones who made money has young men having trap lines. I would go with them at times but as I got into High school not so much. They trapped muskrat,, mink, raccoons, and occasionally a fox. Pelt prices were good but like you said things have changed and now it's about protecting livestock and managing predators. Best of luck on the season
I am so glad you are teaching Huston all of these valuable things. Nothing sad about it. Keeping your life stock safe and the deer / turkeys you hunt for in the future safe is keeping things in balance. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing.
It takes a lot of management to do a homestead and part of that management is controlling livestock, game, and fowl. So trapping and hunting are just part of it. Everything has to work together to have harmony. Goodluck!
My youngest son is a avid duck hunter. This year he got his first banded duck. He also cooks his wrapped in bacon and every Christmas he has his Grandmother make duck dressing and it is good.
Very nicely presented info regarding the purpose of ethical trapping and removal of predators as an integral part of the stewardship of your land. I know it’s difficult for folks who have not lived a country life to understand, but the fact remains that it is necessary to maintain balance between man, his domestic animals and the natural environment. Well done, folks. PS. I’m with DeeJay..I never liked duck either. Quail are a different story!
Danny you could always say this I don't give sermons but if I would do it this way !!! I remember You Danny as a Young Man on Easter Sunday with the animals giving to us a little bit of a sermon in shorts !!! Something that made me stay with you a long long time now !!! Loved that speech that you gave to us in 2020 !!! Have followed you ever since and helped out in the live chats !!! Think of you as family down there by Jimmy Houston Him & Chris also !!!
I have no issues with hunting, fishing, or trapping. It’s necessary and the game commission decides on the number of animals you can get per person on a regular basis! As for coyotes being way too close to farmland it is necessary to protect your animals and in some instances way of income!
I don't know why, but I am okay with trapping pests. So is fishing as well. Deer and ducks still don't like seeing them shot but I understand that's your way toi live. I can also see that it's needed at times. Take care and stay safe my friends. 😊❤😊
Don't feed the hater trolls, you just be you. If you get a bobcat, you should get it taxidermied and mounted. I enjoy all your videos even if I don't hunt, trap or fish myself.
A lot of people are going to make comments about what you do how you hunt and so on, but just smile and keep doing what makes you happy. Am a woman who grew upon a farm and my dad thought us how to trap, smear and shoot good game and shoot predators. We loved every minute of it. So all the haters, those of you who never lived on a farm or in the country you are missing a great part of nature and this guy Daniel is a great hunter, pig trapping a great care taker of his domestic animals and a great father and husband. Daniel you are training Huston real good. Love you guys❤️❤️❤️❤️
We’ve been having coyotes walking up folks driveways in the 1st tier suburbs from the city. About 15 minutes from downtown Minneapolis! This area is unusual as at Christmastime I was driving home from a relatives and dang near hit 2 bucks just strolling down the middle of the street. Last summer at a stoplight I had a huge bald eagle fly right in front of my vehicle to eat something on the street! It’s been crazy seeing unusual wildlife so close to a major metropolitan area!!
Seasons change, as homesteaders/ farmer/ ranchers are connected with the change of seasons, so should the content of the videos. Seems to me to be what makes this channel so good; connected with nature and the seasons.
Something most people don’t know about coyotes is they can breed twice a year if conditions are right. If they get very overpopulated nature fixes the problem. Distemper and parvovirus will spread through the bunch of them. If you’ve ever seen that in pet dogs it’s an awful way to die. So hunting them to keep the numbers down is a fair answer. No it’s not pleasant but the other way is horrible!
I love all the different things on your channel. I like animals but usually just watching new babies so I love all the different stuff on your channel. Trapping is necessary and I see nothing wrong with keeping up with your property and keeping your baby animals safe. Good luck on your new adventure with the B&B.
Growing up on the family farm , we had issues with coyotes trying to get our calves, also actually lost some pigs to a large cat"panther" i could take two strides between the paw prints. Now I live st the edge of town and yesterday morning there two coyotes trying to get our dogs to go to them. You can get rid of all the predators you want.
Daniel, Watched your channel for years! I think that rebuilding your greenhouse..new and improved after the flood/tornado would be great content to see! Rebuilding what you lost and loved, you know… just saying don’t forget your roots. I’m sure you haven’t forgotten because you always remember and mention it of course. Greenhouse 2.0 would be cool to watch also. Just a suggestion @armsfamilyhomestead #armsfamilyhomestead.
Here in the Chicago suburbs (I'm in a rural suburb, Crystal Lake, IL) trapping is not allowed. At least around here, coyotes can freely raid human garbage, and don't have to eat farm poultry and animals.
Trapping has been around a looooonnnnggggg time. Now if Houston learns proper skinning he could sell them furs for fun and profit. Thx Arms family for the enjoyment you give.
Daniel, I admire you for taking and teaching your Children the correct way to hunt. I think that's wonderful. I used to hunt and have taught my Children the same way. I enjoy all of your and DJ's videos
Thanks for taking us along on your hunts. It's fun watching y'all do what you do. Who cares if you're doing it all "right" or not? Just enjoy yourselves. Those skewers look really good. Never had duck, but I'd sure give that stuff a try. I enjoy the trapping videos. I'm impressed with how much more knowledgeable and skilled Houston is with the trapping this year. I enjoy you talking us along on your journeys, and I like that the journey changes up a bit from time to time.
I didn't even know you did gardening videos! I guess I came too late... Don't change because of us, just do what you love and show it to the world! Now I'm going to have to start digging through your old vids. Thanks XD
I was never in the position to Hunt. I did some fishing off the bank..with my Grandpa. My 2 Grandsons are growing up in the country on 20 acres. The youngest will be learning the basics . It’s a good skill to have. Also learning to cook it
I remember the old vidio where you caught some baby pigs 🐖 and 1 escaped from the cage and Bear chased it down caught it and hung on to it till you could get there...had me yelling get it Bear..😊😊
I love every part of this family! My father hunted small game rabbits, squirrels, doves, and quail. As a kid my sisters and I would help him clean the things that he bought home, we thought nothing of it. Dad never shot a deer in his life. Dad fished and crabbed in the summer. Today’s kids haven’t a clue what it is like to have to supplement the weekly groceries with what you grow or kill yourself. My kids know grandpa’s stories but they never hunted in their life.
I love your channel, no matter what u show I enjoy your content and your family. Keep doing what you do, it makes alot of people happy ❤ God bless your family
Hey Daniel and Houston, congrats and 🤣😂🤣 l’m on the floor laughing. Daniel called Houston a ( WATER SWATTER ) and he keeps us in stitches. Thanks for sharing! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯
You guys work so hard on your channel and it shows. Its sad when folks get cranky with your content. Its your families interests and ways of doing that brought us all here. Have they never considered fast forwarding over the bits they dont go for?? If everyone had the same interests wouldnt life be boring as watching paint dry? The groaners might just see something that gets them interested enough to give it a try themselves! Always look to learn something new and every day will be an adventure! 😊 God bless! 🙏🙏🙏
In my opinion this channel is not about us, it is about you and what your family does. Stay the course. What you are doing is perfect. Love the videos.
I agree 💯👍
Don't apologize for living your life to the fullest. For those that don't enjoy it they don't have to watch it it's a choice. But you do not have to apologize to us that understand respect and love the lifestyle
Daniel, thanks for all the wonderful videos. I want to comment on the small tag line at the end of each video (Remember to try to make someone smile today, it might just change the world) I try to do that each day and today (it might not change the world) I made a 91 year-old sweet lady smile. I'm 75 and work for a community transportation company two days/week (Mondays and Tuesdays). We primarily pick up and deliver people for medical appointment and then pick them up again to take them home. Not necessarily do the same drivers get to do both, but this morning I picked her up and took her home from a doctor's office. She commented about having been raised in Pennsylvania, spoke of meeting her husband (from Vermont) and eventually moving here. Then I was assigned to pick her up again from another doctor's office to take her home. It was necessary for me to go inside to locate her and there she sat preoccupied rumaging through her purse (pocketbook) and becoming frantic looking for a phone number. I sat down a couple of chairs from her and she never looked up. I asked, "Do you anyone from Pennsylvania?" She never looked up and replied, "Yes, I'm from Pennsylvania!" I replied with, "Yes, I know! You told me that this morning." Now I'm wearing the safety green shirt and cap when she finally looked up at me.

Awww 🥰 you’re a good man Bruce and you certainly have made many people smile today. Keep doing what you do, and you will change these world. Xx
@@brucejeralds5493 The world, especially the world of us elders def. need more good folks like you. Thank you.
Thank you for being kind. We older folks need to be reminded that we still matter to the world and you did that. ❤
I do just about the same thing. I live in a small rural town. Since the larger town is 30 mile we take and bring back. It feels good helping people. I enjoy what I do.

Thank you, Daniel. My scroll-on-by-finger works terrific.
Your pond will look immaculate when it is finished and I appreciate everything you do for the environment

Daniel I really don't care what people think I love watching your TH-cam Videos please keep making them because as viewer I will continue to watch them some of those people don't understand Country Life may God continue to bless you and your Family
It's YOUR channel. It's about YOU and YOUR family. Not about the Karens who watch.
Your journey is YOUR journey. Thanks for taking us along. ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Pepper has such a relaxing retirement. Thank you for giving her a soft place to land and live out her life

i feel exactly the same way
A lot of people just don't know the reason for wildlife management. At least you are teaching the kids good ethical hunting guide lines.

Who’s complaining???
It is so nice to see you and Houston spend time with each other. He has learned so much from you. I just love all your animals. Love and blessings to you and all your family. ❤
What really counts is your living your dream with your family , Its your homestead your pond. , your land to hunt , fish enjoy the life style that you have chosen to live and sharing all of this to us on your TH-cam channel.....😊😊😊 God Bless.....
Maggie Moo was so adorable to see. 🥰
All of your Father / Son videos are great Daniel... keep 'em coming. Houston will look back at them years from now and cry!!!
Happy Tears, I Hope ❤
I remember that look of excitement on my daughter's face. Never gets old
Houston, I really enjoy your hunting and trapping. So glad you enjoy it. When you enjoy something you will get better and better as time goes on. 🤠
Awe Maggie looks like she wants a friend to play with. Congrats Emma on the win.
Nice pair of ducks, very pretty and would make a nice mount.
There are some of us that are really looking forward to the trapping season.
Congratulations Houston! You saved the lives of many fawns, turkey's etc. Keep on after them
There is a movie "The Blind" fantastic movie about duck hunting and the life of the guy that created the duck call implement. I think you all would love it, it encompasses his struggles and coming to Jesus as well as heaps of hunting. Really worth watching
Daniel I remember when Huston was just getting ready for head start complaing his heart was hurting and you picked him up early and went fishing.now he has growed up and a very handsome young man.
My sister and I love your channel and the variety. She used to fish and hunt years ago. Love the animals. Love to see a family that works and plays together. We get a big kick out of Houston when he accomplishes something he has set his mind to. The time you are sharing now is so special. Believe me he will never forget these experiences. Just be true to yourself. You are doing fine!
Congratulations on the win Emma!
Daniel you do you and ignore the haters.
You are making great memories with your children and such great bonding with Houston.
Do what you want to. It's your channel. I enjoy all of them, so far. :)
Love your humility, and the content is just fantastic!
My nephew took his bobcat to a taxidermy and it is beautiful. I would love to have one to display in my house. There aren’t as many young men these days interested in hunting,fishing, trapping and so on as there use to be. It’s nice to see a young man show interest and more importantly to see a dad take the time to show him how to do it correctly. God Bless you and your family.

I love your videos. I enjoy all that you do. Everyone loves your animals. God bless you.
Just awesome! You stay humble despite the reason to be proud.
Best advice. With all the attention and compliments it’s hard to stay humble. Pride isn’t pretty on anyone.
The fishing & hunting videos are my favorite. My Dad is in his forever home. My Mom joined him 6 years later. My Dad hunted to provide for his family, including relatives,friends, and people in need without judgment. I'm so thankful for the gift of giving & receiving. 🙏
Whether or not you get any ducks - or anything else, for that matter - will mean nothing two decades from now as Houston recalls the "time with Dad". So appreciative of you and all you do.
Just remember it’s nobody’s business but your own. Do what makes you happy.
I admit i’m not into either fishing or hunting BUT i still enjoy your channel … Keep doing your thing 😊
Here in Florida we have so many coyotes. They are bold and have even tried to grab small dogs as people walk in their own neighborhoods
We are a trapping family. My brothers were the ones who made money has young men having trap lines. I would go with them at times but as I got into High school not so much. They trapped muskrat,, mink, raccoons, and occasionally a fox. Pelt prices were good but like you said things have changed and now it's about protecting livestock and managing predators. Best of luck on the season
Thank you for sharing your family values with us. Much appreciated from this grandma. ❤
Just don't quit like Demo Matt! We will watch you do anything, it's much like actually having a family to many of us.
Take care, have a wonderful evening and God Bless you all!!!🙏❤😊
Thank you for the variety of ALL that you do at your farm. It makes us feel like we're there!
Daniel I love who you all are.
I am so glad you are teaching Huston all of these valuable things. Nothing sad about it. Keeping your life stock safe and the deer / turkeys you hunt for in the future safe is keeping things in balance. Keep up the great work. Thanks for sharing.
It takes a lot of management to do a homestead and part of that management is controlling livestock, game, and fowl. So trapping and hunting are just part of it. Everything has to work together to have harmony. Goodluck!
Daniel, you keep on keeping on brother. I love your videos and my wife loves seeing all the babies. Thanks
Good job Houston
My youngest son is a avid duck hunter. This year he got his first banded duck. He also cooks his wrapped in bacon and every Christmas he has his Grandmother make duck dressing and it is good.
My grandmother always made duck dressing and it was my favorite!!
I glad y'all can get rid of the coyotes.
Why would anyone care if you bought an Airbnb? It harms nothing! Except someone’s feelings that think they get you with it!!
Very nicely presented info regarding the purpose of ethical trapping and removal of predators as an integral part of the stewardship of your land.

Who cares what people think about your Duck calling abilities Daniel best part is your out there bonding with your son having great time
Great video most enjoyable thanks. Chris from England
Daniel , you looked Sad in the beginning of this Video ? WHY ?? From Judy Frey , On the Westside of Cleveland Ohio 🫢🫣🤫
Great Job Daniel and Houston!
Love watching you do what you love to do! Keep doing and taking us along on the journey!

Daniel it was 60 today in Lincoln NE!!!! It was so nice ran around town with just a sweater on! It was beautiful!! Enjoy your nice weather!
A lot of people are going to make comments about what you do how you hunt and so on, but just smile and keep doing what makes you happy. Am a woman who grew upon a farm and my dad thought us how to trap, smear and shoot good game and shoot predators. We loved every minute of it. So all the haters, those of you who never lived on a farm or in the country you are missing a great part of nature and this guy Daniel is a great hunter, pig trapping a great care taker of his domestic animals and a great father and husband. Daniel you are training Huston real good. Love you guys❤️❤️❤️❤️
We’ve been having coyotes walking up folks driveways in the 1st tier suburbs from the city. About 15 minutes from downtown Minneapolis! This area is unusual as at Christmastime I was driving home from a relatives and dang near hit 2 bucks just strolling down the middle of the street. Last summer at a stoplight I had a huge bald eagle fly right in front of my vehicle to eat something on the street! It’s been crazy seeing unusual wildlife so close to a major metropolitan area!!
Seasons change, as homesteaders/ farmer/ ranchers are connected with the change of seasons, so should the content of the videos. Seems to me to be what makes this channel so good; connected with nature and the seasons.
We love every thing you and the wife post on your channels. Keep doing you. We’re here and will always be.
Something most people don’t know about coyotes is they can breed twice a year if conditions are right. If they get very overpopulated nature fixes the problem. Distemper and parvovirus will spread through the bunch of them. If you’ve ever seen that in pet dogs it’s an awful way to die. So hunting them to keep the numbers down is a fair answer. No it’s not pleasant but the other way is horrible!
I love your videos no matter your content! Been watching for years! God bless you all! 😍😍😍😍
I love all the different things on your channel. I like animals but usually just watching new babies so I love all the different stuff on your channel. Trapping is necessary and I see nothing wrong with keeping up with your property and keeping your baby animals safe. Good luck on your new adventure with the B&B.
Congratulation on getting a duck that you wanted. Also congratulations on getting a coyote 👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Growing up on the family farm , we had issues with coyotes trying to get our calves, also actually lost some pigs to a large cat"panther" i could take two strides between the paw prints. Now I live st the edge of town and yesterday morning there two coyotes trying to get our dogs to go to them. You can get rid of all the predators you want.
Daniel,
Watched your channel for years! I think that rebuilding your greenhouse..new and improved after the flood/tornado would be great content to see! Rebuilding what you lost and loved, you know… just saying don’t forget your roots. I’m sure you haven’t forgotten because you always remember and mention it of course. Greenhouse 2.0 would be cool to watch also. Just a suggestion

Keep doing what you do, we along for the journey.
Here in the Chicago suburbs (I'm in a rural suburb, Crystal Lake, IL) trapping is not allowed. At least around here, coyotes can freely raid human garbage, and don't have to eat farm poultry and animals.
I love watching you guys trap. It is so satisfying watching you protecting your babies.
Trapping has been around a looooonnnnggggg time. Now if Houston learns proper skinning he could sell them furs for fun and profit. Thx Arms family for the enjoyment you give.
Daniel, I admire you for taking and teaching your Children the correct way to hunt. I think that's wonderful. I used to hunt and have taught my Children the same way. I enjoy all of your and DJ's videos
lol Emily’s look when she came into the room .
Congratulations, Houston and Daniel, on your ducks.
Congratulations guys 👍👋
Always love it when a video comes out❤
Me too❤
Thanks for taking us along on your hunts. It's fun watching y'all do what you do. Who cares if you're doing it all "right" or not? Just enjoy yourselves. Those skewers look really good. Never had duck, but I'd sure give that stuff a try. I enjoy the trapping videos. I'm impressed with how much more knowledgeable and skilled Houston is with the trapping this year. I enjoy you talking us along on your journeys, and I like that the journey changes up a bit from time to time.
lets see a million subs!! lets go!
I am glad you show us so many different things as it keeps it interesting. I like learning about new things.
I didn't even know you did gardening videos! I guess I came too late... Don't change because of us, just do what you love and show it to the world! Now I'm going to have to start digging through your old vids. Thanks XD
Awesome video man. I like all your videos no matter what your family is doing. I enjoy them
Well you must have heard me. lol That looks good. ❤
Glad Huston is hunting deer. He looks like he likes fishing and hunting ducks. I understand the goodness of trapping as well.
Thank you for sharing your lives with us ❤
I was never in the position to Hunt. I did some fishing off the bank..with my Grandpa. My 2 Grandsons are growing up in the country on 20 acres. The youngest will be learning the basics . It’s a good skill to have. Also learning to cook it
I remember the old vidio where you caught some baby pigs 🐖 and 1 escaped from the cage and Bear chased it down caught it and hung on to it till you could get there...had me yelling get it Bear..😊😊
I love every part of this family! My father hunted small game rabbits, squirrels, doves, and quail. As a kid my sisters and I would help him clean the things that he bought home, we thought nothing of it. Dad never shot a deer in his life. Dad fished and crabbed in the summer. Today’s kids haven’t a clue what it is like to have to supplement the weekly groceries with what you grow or kill yourself. My kids know grandpa’s stories but they never hunted in their life.
I love your channel, no matter what u show I enjoy your content and your family. Keep doing what you do, it makes alot of people happy ❤ God bless your family
Daniel , thanks for the very interesting video. I watch all your videos. Take care😊🇺🇲
Hey Daniel and Houston, congrats and 🤣😂🤣 l’m on the floor laughing. Daniel called Houston a ( WATER SWATTER ) and he keeps us in stitches. Thanks for sharing! 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯
You guys work so hard on your channel and it shows.
Its sad when folks get cranky with your content. Its your families interests and ways of doing that brought us all here.
Have they never considered fast forwarding over the bits they dont go for??
If everyone had the same interests wouldnt life be boring as watching paint dry?
The groaners might just see something that gets them interested enough to give it a try themselves!
Always look to learn something new and every day will be an adventure! 😊 God bless! 🙏🙏🙏
Congratulations Houston! Love y'all's videos, no matter the content.
I love seeing your baby goats. My son doesn’t trap he just hunts coyotes that get after the livestock.
