One way everyone can help Zion is go back and do a marathon watch of the videos. Also let the commercials run. This does two things. Help with how much they get paid from You Tube and pushes the channel out to more viewers 💜💜💜🐐🐐🐐
Remember beinga younggirl in northern Iowa and them taking for ever to grade the co.roads.Love the snow but not the extreme temps it brings 😂❤guess that is age never thought of it when a kid.❤Hope this solar works out for you all.❤
Hi Shawn, dogs enjoying snow. Bunnies are cute. , chickens are doing well. Milk and cake, either way is yummy❤️🥰. Dot and Madame President will be going😔. Mr Snow and Mr MarMar are so nice and fluffy.❤️. Good luck with. The light situation. Have a safe day and enjoy being inside also and see you next time❤️❤️🥰👍
Let us know when you’re gonna go ahead and order thesolar panels . You know we’re behind you 100% and we will help you buy it. We have wanted to see you get electricity in the goat barn for a long time so hopefully you will be doing it this spring.or summer .😊 ❤
Was nice to see the bunnies and the chickens! It's always wonderful to see the goats! Im going to miss all the babies once they go to their new homes. Madame Snow will make an awesome show goat. I just hope she doesn't go to the sales pen once they're done showing her. I was in 4 H when I was in junior high. I showed horses. It was so much fun! I sure hope the solar option works out for you! It's definitely a lot cheaper than running the electricity! Stay blessed Shawn and H!!! I love you guys so very, very much!!! Stay safe out there on the snow and ice!!! 💖🥰❤️🤗🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Chester gave you the side eye, Shawn, when you said you didn’t remember his name 😅😂😂 Tic-tac would be a great pet for Harry Potter. She’s got that awesome lightning mark on her side 😊
Hi Shawn, I don't know if this may be of help for you, but I watch a channel called.....white house on the hill. And they have a video about the solar network he got for his cow barn that was very far away from the main farmhouse. And I think he had a box. Great video. Love the babies, you will be running out of stalls soon when the new babies arrive 😊x
Concerning the snow on radar... it's called virga. Basically it's snowing high up but due to dry air in the middle it evaporates before actually snowing on the ground. But on radar it shows up as snowing.
So glad that Gingie is doing much better! Tapioca is a pretty little thing for sure. Hope you will find that solar will work out for you all. Have a great weekend.
I've seen a lot of videos of happy husky's and other furry dogs lately. The rest - definitely not happy! So crazy watching your video. It was 74° here today in So Cal but the wind was horrendous and still is. Everything's on fire! Lol @ lifted hoopty! Haven't heard that in awhile. I know lots of people with solar and all of them love it. I hope it all works out for you.🤞 Stay safe and warm!❤🙏
Hi Shawn. Did you notice that Sparkles wasn't letting Muffin eat? 4-H. If I remember right, don't they usually get rid of their animals after it's over? I'm so glad to see all the animals are doing great. Pyshka looks great. Happy bunnies and chickens. As happy as they can be in the freezing weather. And of course, all the goats are fluffy and happy. I hope you start thawing out soon. Thanks for the video. Loved it. Hopefully everything works out with the solar setup. I like my cake in a bowl with milk too. Ya'll take care and hugs to everyone.
I have solar on my house and I also feed the grid. So if I don't produce enough energy I get it from the utility. Winter months are tough is what I am finding. Cloudy days don't produce a lot of electricity. Just information for you
Hi Shawn. I love to eat my cake/breads with a cup of coffee ☕️ or milk🥛 and with ice-cream 🍦. Its great the bunnies 🐇 are doing good. The goat🐐 🐐 are looking good and eating hay . Just keep y'all warm, safe and healthy
With all that wind, a wind turbine connected to your batteries might supplement whatever you need that solar couldn’t provide. Didn’t Al from Lumnah Acres build his whole house with solar? I bet he has insight. Also Wild Wonderful Off Grid built their whole home with solar too and he did it all himself.
@@zioncreekfarm I’ve been mentally preparing to build my own off grid homestead with solar, two water sources, goats, chickens and a garden for years. TH-cam has been my free university and I’ve learned so much about all of it- from you as well!
I'm a little curious though, where I live. The cows that are involved in 4-H usually get shipped to slaughter when they're done, just wondering where do the goats go?
I worked in banking back in the day and watched it come online. I have my thoughts on security about that, but there is no going back. I can say I saw more marriages go haywire when things started clearing faster. Those debit cards got a lot of people in trouble 😂
If 200 people donated only $20 that would add up to $4000, enough to get the solar done The more people that donate the lower the amounts of the donation needs to be to reach the goal. . I definitely would donate. It would be such a help for the goats delivering babies at night, or needing medical treatment at night.
I like my cake with ice cream. I’ve never had it in milk. Sure hope the solar plan works out for you. It sounds like a great solution! Really enjoyed the video. Thanks ❣️
Shawn if you can reach out to Andrew Kelley from Kelley’s Country Life he can tell you how to hook up solar to use it in the barn. He had several solar units at his house! He’s got his shop and the pool pump running on solar power. He has quite a few videos on how he’s hooked up his solar panels. Hopefully he can help you out, tell you what is good and what to stay away from! He is on TH-cam.
AI scares the crap out of me, but you are right. I can see the movies Terminator and Maximum Overdrive coming true. Cool about the solar, though. You are so smart.
Given the video, I thought it was appropriate to put that question into ChatGPT. Here’s the response! What happens to 4-H goats after the show season depends on the goals of the owner and the type of project the goat was part of. Here are the common outcomes: 1. Breeding Stock • Many goats are kept for breeding if they are high-quality animals with good genetics. These goats are used to produce kids for future 4-H projects or to improve the herd. 2. Milk Production (Dairy Goats) • Dairy goats may return to being part of the milking herd, providing milk for the farm or for sale. 3. Market Goats • Market goats, raised specifically for meat, are typically sold at auction after the show season. These goats are then processed for meat. 4. Retirement or Pets • Some goats become pets or retire if they are no longer suitable for breeding, showing, or production. Families may keep them as companions. 5. Sale to Other Farms • Show goats may be sold to other farms for breeding, showing, or production, especially if they have proven to be high-quality animals. 6. Youth Projects • Younger 4-H participants may take over caring for goats from previous show seasons as part of their own projects. The specific outcome often depends on the goat’s role (dairy, market, or breeding), its quality, and the owner’s plans.
I hate to research things i might wanna buy because there is so much choice. I need to know the difference with all the different types of products im buying. With so much choice, it makes it so confusing for me. Amazon makes it worse, as before buying, i have to figure out why one is better than the other. Then, figure out price wise if the more expensive one is actually worth the extra pounds. So much time I waste on researching this stuff. Sometimes, i just put off buying. My birthday is tomorrow 9th jan. I have many years of birthday money in an account not being spent, probably because of this. I know its nutz.
I think if you're going to have power of one sort or another, you might want to buy the panel box and outlets, etc first. It'll take some of the financial burden off the final total. The equipment needed on the inside doesn't change that often. My husband is an electrician.

Madame Snow is going to be a show goat!? 😍 She already has the beauty pagent attitude starting, definitely makes her presence known lol! 😂
I love when you talk about the colors and markings. I think it's so neat how they come out. Gingie♥️
It's nice seeing everyone looking healthy and well. Stay warm in the cold winter weather. I do hope someday that you can get power to the barn. 💖🙏💖
Chester gave you the side eye, Shawn, when you said you didn’t remember his name 😅😂😂 Tic-tac would be a great pet for Harry Potter. She’s got that awesome lightning mark on her side 😊
I noticed that, too! 😂
He did 🤣
I just smile when you pan the hay ring and the girls are standing on back legs just reaching high. So cute.

As someone who lives in tropical Queensland and who's adult children have never seen snow, I cant even conceive of how cold that must be,🥶🥶
Good luck with solar power. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼😊👍🏼❤take your time to learn 😊

Feels like 9 is a swear word in some places 😂. Good to see Pyshka out moving about!
Pyshka was looking so good! Snow is husky heaven
@jenniferthomas2441 it really is! 😂
So glad that Gingie is doing much better! Tapioca is a pretty little thing for sure. Hope you will find that solar will work out for you all. Have a great weekend.
solar set ups run some houses so you should be able to use solar for your barns :)
BTW keep updated on Herc he was and still is my favorite 😍 love ❤️ Herc. Sure do miss 😢😢him.
You have a winter wonderland!
We have solar at my Boyfriends cabin and we are thinking of adding a wind turbine for backup and assist.
I've seen a lot of videos of happy husky's and other furry dogs lately. The rest - definitely not happy!

Where I work you still have a few us old folks who will break out the check book and but most folks use cards.

You’re always a wealth of information. I will give them a look ☺️

Extension cord method is Lester’s barndominium method, isn’t it?
I'm a little curious though, where I live. The cows that are involved in 4-H usually get shipped to slaughter when they're done, just wondering where do the goats go?
Try some tres leche cake it is so good. I think most stores sell it now
❤️ seeing the bae baes!!!!!
I'm with H on the cake! And yes goats love their cake (grain), mine almost knock me over trying to get to the feed trough.
Depends on if the cake is dry or not i like both its cake lmfao

The PayPal is on the description in every TH-cam vidro
I work at Walmart and we still take personal checks we just run them through a machine now
Time for a Streusel Shirt to raise solar funds.
I like my cake with ice cream. I’ve never had it in milk.
Sure hope the solar plan works out for you. It sounds like a great solution!
Really enjoyed the video. Thanks ❣️

I do about five checks a year now.

Going to miss Madam President 😢
Sounds like solar might be a good answer for you. Fingers crossed!
❤❤❤❤😊
My dad taught us to eat in bowl with lots of milk. But I can eat with cup of milk also...lol cake is cake
I do remember that about the credit cards. Boy am I old!
Yep you guys definitely got a lot of snow your direction here in the northwest corner of Ohio we got absolutely nothing
❤❤❤
I eat cake in a bowl mixed with milk 🥛 it is yummy 😋
Yeeeeeesssss!!! 1 for me, 0 for H 🤣
@zioncreekfarm 🤣😂🤣😂
what happens to the goats after they are shown? I know the cows are sold at auction so most of them go to slaughter.

Cake is cake, no milk in any form. Occasionally with ice cream or custard.
I actually use checks to pay my rent too he doesn't like credit cards and he doesn't like cash it's got to be either a check for a money order
No milk at all for me
Bunnies. Puppies chicks and goats. Oh my. It is pretty but no fun digging out
I hope we don’t get that much when it gets here, now they’re saying Thursday!
Talk to Dutch at keeping it Dutch. He does a lot solar
