Guys, as mentioned in the vlog, the aviary will be going ON THE FARM LOT, not our backyard where the structures were just being assembled. We could not assemble on the farm lot yet because of on going work. Also, the aviary will be taller. Basically, flipped on its side instead of tall so the birds can fly straight. Thanks for watching!!! ❤️
Cheers, Mikey. Your vlogs are always the topic of discussion here at home. It's like we're also involved in all the mabuhay farm activities. Anyway, we can't wait for the farm (and the new aviary) to get set up ❤
Mikey, also, for the new aviary in the entrance space add plastic slats for an extra barrier! in your house, the house is the barrier if a bird got out it still has to go a while to get outside with this setup a smart quick bird can and will pass you by to the outside (Murphy's law!) heavy plastic slats will prevent this ever from happening because even if a bird gets out it will be halted by the slats and not fly out when you exit because you didn't notice it was missing or you left a door open (that happened more than once to you in other scenarios, no critique it's just the human condition we all do it) so have that extra safeguard and build it in there.
Some fish that I'd suggest for the pond are: 1. Giant Gourami- they're mostly omnivorous but leaning towards herbivory so it could help control aquatic plants should they grow rampant. 2. Oscar- the climate is perfect for them and they're one if the more relatively peaceful large cichlids. A small group would look great in the pond, especially if they pair up and each pair would stake out territories in different areas of the pond. Easy to find in pet stores as well and are quite affordable. They're also omnivores so they are easy to feed. 3. Tinfoil Barb(or alternatively, Bala Sharks)- both species are great schooling fish of considerable size. 4. Pacu- A small group would look great in a pond. Beware of their bite though as they have strong jaws that are adapted to crush nuts in their native habitat. Relatively easy to find in pet stores, especially juveniles, and are affordable. 5. Common Pleco( Sailfin Leopard Pleco as an alternative)- for algae control. Very easy to find in pet stores, especially juveniles, and very affordable. 6.Iridescent Shark Catfish(they are usually sold in stores under the name of Hammerhead)- a small group would be perfect for the pond as it is the perfect size for them as they grow to a considerable size. They're also the ones that are used in Cream Dory. Redtail Catfish might be possible, but the other fish they'd be sharing the pond must be big enough that they cannot fit them inside their massive mouths. Tiger Shovelnose Catfish could also work but they need a relatively fast current. Bichir might work, but their mostly bottom-dwellers so you won't see them that often, and they are carnivores as well. They can also leave to water for long periods at a time, provided that they stay moist. Snakeheads are a no-go as they can leave the pond to look for other bodies of water. Arapaima can be pretty dangerous as a threatened fish might leap out of the water and can cause injury with their hard bony heads. Jeremy Wade of River Monsters fame got injured by one when it barreled towards him and hit him hard on the chest. They will also ambush any small terrestrial animals by the water's age. Alligator gar can also cause injury if it accidentally bites someone and can also ambush terrestrial prey by the water's edge. Tigerfish are also a no-go as they can leap out to snatch birds flying low to the water's surface and they can cause injury with their teeth.
This is a very cool vlog! I love the progress on the pond, when it’s all done, it’ll be epic! It almost seems that ya’ll should tile the pond for the final step, with some really cool colored tile (LOL, leave it to me to complicate things). This is a really interesting method of constructing the new Aviary. My Engineer DNA was triggered as you described this. I can think of a couple ways to achieve some height with these constructs if you wanted it, and I think it would be solid enough to easily withstand elements. It wouldn’t be as high as the current aviary but another eight to ten feet should be “do-able”. I wonder if some additional width would be good too, with the constructs it would be easy enough. It’s funny, as you started to describe the double door entry to the aviary, I was thinking the exact same thing. It’s really awesome to see Raquel!! Happy Birthday to Chloe! I love the idea of dinner at the pool. This gave me a great idea that I may try in the future… ;). I totally understand and respect RJ’s with to be more off camera than on but, I feel compelled to mention… I would have loved to watch RJ cook his recipes for this dinner. I feel in my heart that RJ has so much talent, I wish he felt more comfortable sharing in this format (I think he’d be surprised how much love there is for him out here “in the wild”) but, it has to be his decision. I think it may be time for a new music parody featuring Billy as a grown up… :). This comes from seeing you bring back your Filipino Tutorials. I really hope you make this a “thing”. Brining this back with a new, adult perspective through the lens of all the life experience you have now I think would be a total hit!! I hope you don’t mind me saying this, you’re like a fine (with alcohol) wine, you’ve gotten so much better with age. That OFW skit is total fire!! As you know, I made a ton of Filipino friends when I worked on the Cruise Ships and, my Dentist is Filipina, the nurse at my doc is filipino, I’m working with a realtor (for a new long-term thing) who is a Filipino… I love Filipino people! Thanks for sharing your days! It’s great to hang out when we can. Ya’ll be safe! I’ll see ‘ya next time.
Hi Mikey and RJ. Love your videos. I’m so happy you took your mom’s advice and modified the step. When is your mom and dad coming I can’t wait to see them again. I miss your dad s joke of the day😂🫶🏽
Wondering, will you still bring them plants for enrichment? I know it is costly, but it also so good for them too? Or will you attempt a more "catio" style full of things they can hide in and hang onto for enrichment, but won't be destructible? Or perhaps a mixture of the two?
It looks like a great plan for the parrots to be outside. People do something similar here but it's not usually for 24/7 or all year... but of course you have better, more constant outdoor conditions. I'd still feel like I needed to bring them in during a typhoon. Where I live, we frequently have hurricanes. I would have to bring the birds inside or be nervous the whole time... but I think that is because, like Ligya did... our parrots often share our living spaces and just use the outdoor aviaries as extra living space. ❤
If your basing the height of the aviary from the steel structure he put then its short but he said that its much higher than that but not as tall as a 3 storey building which is their current one
agree + eye sore yung plano nilang pwesto ng aviary sa area. icocover nya yung pool and scenery ng nature. obviously yung orig plan nila didn’t work. sayang lang but i guessed its my damn business its their money and space 😂😂😂
Wow. I can’t wait to finish fish pond, aviary birds, farming yards! That’s gonna be so beautiful and so cool! Great job, what a great choice to R.j.! Thank you to both of you’s to Mikey and R.j.!
In recent weeks we are spoiled to have so many videos. Seeing all these well-kept animals warms my heart. I can’t wait to see Donatello in the pond again. Thanks Miley and RJ 🍀🙏🏼
Amazing plan, love to be nosy😅, but if you'd like to hear more for your aviary, I think you can extend ur pre fab frame upward but in a shape of a dome, possible to be made of a mesh wire, you can refer/google, e.g. philippine eagle' dome cage, or bird sanctuary in typical zoo. Anyways, just a suggestion... Nice going and Kudos 👍💯
You can also plant trees instead of placing them in pots for the aviary. The birds poo can fertilize them into health. That's why, is it okay to use concrete flooring? You guys will figure it out. You always do. Koi or fish with bright color might be a good addition. Koi are hardy and live a really looooooog time. 😅
I love the idea of the outdoors for the parrots. I worry about typhoons, under a tree might be a thing to worry about in case of falling branches. Will you keep the cages in the new aviary, it seems at times to be their safe haven., but being outdoors, feeling the breeze and having more horizontal space is going to be awesome.
I love your videos, Mikee. You sharing your life with us is such a gift. Not everyone is blessed to experience the beauty of nature that you get to experience every morning. I’m a morning person and I just love it when you take us with you through your mornings. You have a beautiful home and everything you’ve built in and around it. ❤️ God bless you and RJ. Keep spreading good vibes 🫶
That aviary is going to be nice!🥰 Maybe since the pond is being redone, have a basking area with a ramp from the water built in… for your red-eared slider.☀️🐢💕
Your life has truly come 360, God can see you and RJ giving back into the world buy considering mother nature in your builds & in your protection of wildlife. You 2 are amazing, Hubby & were watching some old vlogs and you manfiested and then worked hard to make this all happen!!! Hi Raquel❤
AVIARY COMMENT - Why not set-up the new horizontal aviary on the rooftop, and connect one side to also one side of the top part of the vertical house-aviary? So it becomes one big interconnected aviary. That way, the birds can fly both vertically and horizontally in one cage. The birds will also be able to see a lot of sky and tree tops, as opposed to seeing only ground level vegetation if put in the garden. Cheers, Mikey. We love you.
That yellow background in Canada!!! My goodness, that has been a long time ago!! I loved those....THESE!!!! Keep them coming!!! We all need some smart humour!!@! Ok, that;s it Pancit! Luv Ya!!!!
Happy viewing here in lebanon.... just having fun getting a dose of positive vibes especially nowadays that we are in trouble with the war against Israel and Palestine since we are at the border .help us pray Mabuhay Squad family, pray that things will be better soooooo soon!!!!!
Hi mikey, i would suggest, isnt it better if make use of your tree and have it enclosed and come up with a humongous cage and good esthetics on your garden. 😊
I suggest consulting with a structural engineer to see if those store bought pergolas can withstand a strong typhoon to see if any modifications have to be made in order to ensure the safety of your birds in case of a really strong typhoon.
Consider building the aviary foundation as a continuous 18" high x 8" wide curb and provide embedded metal plates with 5/8" studs to attach the posts into for a sturdier structure. I'm sure you will consult an engineer for hurricane forces. You will probably need to place additional bracing.
Your place looks like heaven. So so happy for you guys! 😊. When I retire, I’m going home to the P.I and build a place that that (if I hit the lotto, haha). God bless.
Hello Mikey and RJ, I'm happy to watch your daily vlog I really amazed to v the bts of your tutorial videos and I love RJ is always ready to assist you in everything you do.I cant wait to see the progress of your farm and both of you were planting on it, I'm happy to see Raq and her daughter to celebrate her birthday at your house.Enjoy the days ahead of you.Godbless all of you ❤️❤️❤️
I think It's better to transfer your aviary outside your home,to evade the odors of their poops and also the noise they create so you could relax well in your beautiful house👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Will the outdoor aviary have a way to protect from typhoons or bad weather? - I can't wait to see the pond all fixed up with the turtles (turtle island?) and sealed again holding fish.
W O W ❤ congratulations Mikey RJ for your new farming adventure - good luck and waiting for your produce - YEY 🌻 take care you both, all your Team and both of your families. God loves you all 🙏💐🌻😊
I always love your vlogs and all your pets. The parrots fly high also. Maybe the present aviary is a bit narrow for them that’s why they spiral first before going to the top. Just a thought. Your concern for your pets is amazing. Sana all gaya ninyo.
It would be interesting to put Archer Fish in that pond. It would try spitting water at random bugs who hang around the Pond or the Sunken Garden, mix it with Giant Gourami and Oscars.
I love your music videos. Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury being my favorite ones that you did, played them several times. Just amazing videos, but a lot of work I'm sure.
Remember not to overstock the pond! Ideally only 1-3 extra large fish in that pond. Yes, a lot of people often put way more than that and would put like 10 in there. That’s not enough space for each of the fish to be happy and comfortable, though. My guess is like 3 in there.
Be cool to connect to the house in case of typhoon, they’ll be able to go inside. Food looks epic. I get up at 1:15am (yes, just after midnight) to get ready for work at 3am. On days off I wake between 6am & 8:30am.
I believe African cichlids 🐠 are really good mosquito control in ponds and also add some colour to the pond However if you wanted to farm fish for food as well you could possibly go for other forms of cichlids like tilapia another addition if you wanted to farm fish for food is various types of carp
Ever thought of making a biotope/habitat pond with local native species? It significantly lessens the risk of invasive species escaping and the pond acts as a population refugium. Not as flashy as koi or arowanas, but more fun as you'll be working with species rarely or never kept in captivity. And the Philippines has quite a lot of weird native freshwater fish, from needle gars to glass-like perchlets, archerfish,, barbs, mullets, bass, the super-tiny dwarf gobies, even the uniquely cut off formerly marine species in Laguna de Bay and Taal Lake.
I mean. Not dissing anyone, but koi, arowanas, oscars, etc. are so overdone. Everyone has them. Who knows maybe you could find a species that ends up becoming a pond staple here in the future, which could help with their conservation.
Been watching since u did videos like shopping with a filipino mom OMG I laughed so hard LOVED it ❤ thanks for sharing ur life with us blessings from North Texas ❤
I have an enclosure like yours, where I keep monkeys! I suggest you to paint the your white mesh BLACK! It will look amazing!! It showcases whatever is inside way more... (look for videos of before and after)
You know keeping monkeys in a cage is not right! It is heartbreaking to know some monkeys are being tortured in a small cage by people who should be protecting them! I hope one day they will pluck out your eyes and you know what that means.
Hi Mikey. Question: Why don't you build your pond like your pool? I was wondering because your pool doesn't have any chemicals. Also, if you make it like your pool, you'd have more visibility. You'd be able to film the fish, tadpoles and turtles. It was just a thought I had. Would that be a possibility? Love your channels. And yes, you are my daily dose of positive vibes. Sometimes, it cloudy here and I get my vitamin d from your sunshine. 😊😊😊
Mikey, cheers to your farm project, etc. What about your Iloilo property? How about growing Moroccan Olives there (sunny, windswift, hilly)? 30x higher on polyphenols and all the other good stuff than Mediterranean varieties per Dr. Gundry. Bet Philippines can support olive industry too.
Love your channel from what has become your Fil-Am-Canadian fan watching from Houston, also started following you on Ig, saw you wore a CrossFit shirt not the previous vlog, luv it!
I think a carabao or two, and a wagon for you and guests to ride in would be so much fun for the farm; and they can pull a plow to till the fields. Most of all, carabao are just awesome (can you tell they are one of my favorite animals?).🐂
Happy belated birthday to Chloe! Cheers to more Filipino tutorials and parodies! Great job Mikey! Will the side lot be done before you and RJ leave for the US or Canada?
Sayang yung landscape ng garden. Lalo na concrete pa i flooring. Later on, ma realize niyo na sayang yung landscape. Consider moving the new aviary sa baba ng pool sa tapat ng Kubo near sa cage ng iguanas.
Thank you for explaining the new Avery it makes a lot of sense and sometime you have to make a mistake to learn and try again! Sorry probably broke in English My first language is Quebecois French 👍🏻😷👍🏿🇨🇦🇵🇭🇺🇲

But if you're putting a roof on it how does that allow them more sun?
Idol hingi nmn ako regalo na gouldian finches...
Mikey, also, for the new aviary in the entrance space add plastic slats for an extra barrier!
in your house, the house is the barrier if a bird got out it still has to go a while to get outside with this setup a smart quick bird can and will pass you by to the outside (Murphy's law!) heavy plastic slats will prevent this ever from happening because even if a bird gets out it will be halted by the slats and not fly out when you exit because you didn't notice it was missing or you left a door open (that happened more than once to you in other scenarios, no critique it's just the human condition we all do it) so have that extra safeguard and build it in there.
Seems like a small detail, but That Step is the beginning of the Grand Entrance.
Glad that you improved it. 💕

A custom built aviary would be A LOT better. This is probably the shortest outdoor aviary. Birds also need to practice their vertical flying.
Agree. Also, they should do it on the farm side to keep architecture of the house better.
If your basing the height of the aviary from the steel structure he put then its short but he said that its much higher than that but not as tall as a 3 storey building which is their current one
@@novoiperkeleI believe he said that aviary will be moved on the farm side directly in front of the adjoining gate.

Hi mikey, i would suggest, isnt it better if make use of your tree and have it enclosed and come up with a humongous cage and good esthetics on your garden. 😊
Awesome! You should’ve open the window and sing live for them :)
I suggest consulting with a structural engineer to see if those store bought pergolas can withstand a strong typhoon to see if any modifications have to be made in order to ensure the safety of your birds in case of a really strong typhoon.
Consider building the aviary foundation as a continuous 18" high x 8" wide curb and provide embedded metal plates with 5/8" studs to attach the posts into for a sturdier structure. I'm sure you will consult an engineer for hurricane forces. You will probably need to place additional bracing.
Your care for your animals is huge like your heart❤
You are my positive Dose!😍🥰🙏❤️ Thank you.Mikey and Arjay❤🙏👏
You & Ari deserve everything you have ❤ you worked hard for it. I watch you everyday 😍
glad to see ms raquel again.. should have more airtime tho like the old ways.. you both are baliwag 80s
The idea for the Aviary seems good. Just make sure you don’t put too many obstacles in their way so they can actually fly the full distance
This is true! Great point!
Your place looks like heaven. So so happy for you guys! 😊.
When I retire, I’m going home to the P.I and build a place that that (if I hit the lotto, haha). God bless.
Hello Mikey and RJ, I'm happy to watch your daily vlog I really amazed to v the bts of your tutorial videos and I love RJ is always ready to assist you in everything you do.I cant wait to see the progress of your farm and both of you were planting on it, I'm happy to see Raq and her daughter to celebrate her birthday at your house.Enjoy the days ahead of you.Godbless all of you ❤️❤️❤️
I think It's better to transfer your aviary outside your home,to evade the odors of their poops and also the noise they create so you could relax well in your beautiful house👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please plant lemongrass all around you to ward-off snakes. Suggestion lang naman.
Will the outdoor aviary have a way to protect from typhoons or bad weather? - I can't wait to see the pond all fixed up with the turtles (turtle island?) and sealed again holding fish.
Hand rails next to the step might be handy too.
Good endorsement 👏👏👏👏nice location, very well acted!
Oh no!!! I love that open grassy space… can’t you move that aviary somewhere else? It’ll look so crowded.
That's not where the aviary will be. The aviary will be on the farming lot.
Kudos for getting that step fixed!
I’ve watched your comedy skit already and i must say i miss pinoy boy very much!😘
W O W ❤ congratulations Mikey RJ for your new farming adventure - good luck and waiting for your produce - YEY 🌻 take care you both, all your Team and both of your families. God loves you all 🙏💐🌻😊
Canaries sing. German rollers, red factor canary, border Canaries, American rollers. Nightingale, gouldian finches are beautifully colored.
I like birds, will the new aviary blocked the beautiful view of the pool from the house??
Mikey: "...don't tell RJ..."
RJ: watches Mikey's video
Hahaha!
always looking forward to see Suga , Magnus & everyone , til next time
I think monster fish would be dope in that pond. arapaima is awesome
I'm scared for wildlife visiting the pond and my little dogs!
I always love your vlogs and all your pets. The parrots fly high also. Maybe the present aviary is a bit narrow for them that’s why they spiral first before going to the top. Just a thought. Your concern for your pets is amazing. Sana all gaya ninyo.
It would be interesting to put Archer Fish in that pond. It would try spitting water at random bugs who hang around the Pond or the Sunken Garden, mix it with Giant Gourami and Oscars.
you can try gouldian finches for the rain forest
My condos for Lagaia, I didn't know she passed two tears ago with me being out of the loop Ifor a while I, congrats on the new house
I love your music videos. Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury being my favorite ones that you did, played them several times. Just amazing videos, but a lot of work I'm sure.
Happy birthday blessings Chloe!🎂🥳
So just catching up on some vids I missed while on vacation and I see ur turning ur home into call of the wild so congrats 🇨🇦👍
Beautiful plan mickey you are amazing ❤
With all that space in the pond I'm sure there are plenty of people that have fish that have outgrown tanks that you could rescue.
I was waiting for your 5 stars lol. I pray everything works out for both you and RJ. Have a nice day.
Remember not to overstock the pond! Ideally only 1-3 extra large fish in that pond. Yes, a lot of people often put way more than that and would put like 10 in there. That’s not enough space for each of the fish to be happy and comfortable, though. My guess is like 3 in there.
Be cool to connect to the house in case of typhoon, they’ll be able to go inside.
Food looks epic.
I get up at 1:15am (yes, just after midnight) to get ready for work at 3am. On days off I wake between 6am & 8:30am.
The Koi will be great in the pond.
What a paradise!! ❤
I would move the outside Avery towards the house a little bit that way you have more room on the other side
Will you please get a saltwater aquarium. Would love to see you taking care of one
Loved your new parody ❤❤ can't wait to see the new bird digs!
Ps I LOVE these long blogs! Love from Minnesota
I believe African cichlids 🐠 are really good mosquito control in ponds and also add some colour to the pond
However if you wanted to farm fish for food as well you could possibly go for other forms of cichlids like tilapia another addition if you wanted to farm fish for food is various types of carp
nice title. clicked it cuz I saw parrot & Aviary
Ever thought of making a biotope/habitat pond with local native species? It significantly lessens the risk of invasive species escaping and the pond acts as a population refugium. Not as flashy as koi or arowanas, but more fun as you'll be working with species rarely or never kept in captivity. And the Philippines has quite a lot of weird native freshwater fish, from needle gars to glass-like perchlets, archerfish,, barbs, mullets, bass, the super-tiny dwarf gobies, even the uniquely cut off formerly marine species in Laguna de Bay and Taal Lake.
I mean. Not dissing anyone, but koi, arowanas, oscars, etc. are so overdone. Everyone has them. Who knows maybe you could find a species that ends up becoming a pond staple here in the future, which could help with their conservation.
What a beautiful home❤
Painting the enclosure mesh black would allow you to see in way easier. Not sure if it would be pet safe though.
Leigh and toon Porpeang farm put there goat manure right on their gardens and they look amazing. So I think the aging thing maybe Incorrect
🙌🙌🙌
Arapaima and Alligator Gar! hehe idol @Mikey Bustos. 👌🏻😁
Really love the birds. Have a nice day.
Been watching since u did videos like shopping with a filipino mom OMG I laughed so hard LOVED it ❤ thanks for sharing ur life with us blessings from North Texas ❤
I have an enclosure like yours, where I keep monkeys! I suggest you to paint the your white mesh BLACK! It will look amazing!! It showcases whatever is inside way more... (look for videos of before and after)
You know keeping monkeys in a cage is not right! It is heartbreaking to know some monkeys are being tortured in a small cage by people who should be protecting them!
I hope one day they will pluck out your eyes and you know what that means.
He already did that for the iguana enclosure, I'm sure he knows that
Hi Mikey. Question: Why don't you build your pond like your pool? I was wondering because your pool doesn't have any chemicals. Also, if you make it like your pool, you'd have more visibility. You'd be able to film the fish, tadpoles and turtles. It was just a thought I had. Would that be a possibility? Love your channels. And yes, you are my daily dose of positive vibes. Sometimes, it cloudy here and I get my vitamin d from your sunshine. 😊😊😊
Loved the new comedy video!
Mikey, cheers to your farm project, etc. What about your Iloilo property? How about growing Moroccan Olives there (sunny, windswift, hilly)? 30x higher on polyphenols and all the other good stuff than Mediterranean varieties per Dr. Gundry. Bet Philippines can support olive industry too.
Love your channel from what has become your Fil-Am-Canadian fan watching from Houston, also started following you on Ig, saw you wore a CrossFit shirt not the previous vlog, luv it!
When I kept Budgerigars they loved their outdoor avairy!! 🐦
Have A Prosperous Rejuvenating Awesome and Yielding Week Ahead Mabuhay Squad!🙏😍💙💛❤️
I think a carabao or two, and a wagon for you and guests to ride in would be so much fun for the farm; and they can pull a plow to till the fields. Most of all, carabao are just awesome (can you tell they are one of my favorite animals?).🐂
Mikey,the great zoologist😍
I suggest colorful cichlids also for bigger fishes, you may try Red Belly Pacu's, Oscars and Big Kois, they can all be kept together :)
also hammer head sharks. you can start with all them small and they can grow big as you go along :)
I am so grateful for your wonderful blogs!❤ Watching from New York U.S.A❤🙏
Happy belated birthday to Chloe!
Cheers to more Filipino tutorials and parodies! Great job Mikey!
Will the side lot be done before you and RJ leave for the US or Canada?
i think you can paint the enclosure mesh black on the outside to be able to view the inside better
So many projects! I can't tell which is my favorite, I just love them all! :P
Wow so amazing beautiful house 😀
Your neighbors know it's your music! 🤣
You give I’m so much inspiration. Thanks you.
the walls of the pond look like okay 85% patchwork sealing with the roofing material
Sayang yung landscape ng garden. Lalo na concrete pa i flooring. Later on, ma realize niyo na sayang yung landscape. Consider moving the new aviary sa baba ng pool sa tapat ng Kubo near sa cage ng iguanas.
Thank you for explaining the new Avery it makes a lot of sense and sometime you have to make a mistake to learn and try again! Sorry probably broke in English My first language is Quebecois French 👍🏻😷👍🏿🇨🇦🇵🇭🇺🇲
Double stack one piece of new aviary for a little height. On one end.
Are the fish or turtle going to swim into that orange pipe in the pond?
Malawi would fit great in the pond!
