Good luck with the new venture. Sounds like the iron is hot!

Pete I think you have a good idea. That is what a farmer is. Always thinking ahead.

LOVE IT!!!!! I’m 1000% excited for the feeder stock idea!! And the three breeds you said are amazing breeds! Only other breeds I’d look for besides the three are Hampshire and old spot! I’m super excited to see where you take this Pete you seriously made my day!

If it lies within you to do, stepping up the pig game is a beautiful contribution to both your community and the long term sustainability of the independent pig keepers. It's a lot of work, it's a lot more land to commit, but it's something you could do, and do well. Whatever way you decide, do what is best for you, farm & family, and remember to have fun!

Congratulations on your new venture Pete. It is a terrific idea and I look forward to hearing about your progress. I'm not a farmer, just an old, retired analyst. Seems to me that you are extraordinarily successful in maintaining the lineage of your Dexters, and seem to think with high quality genetics, a couple of hogs, like your two bulls, you can grow out several generations, and based upon your 5-year service life, may be able to avoid AI. Sorry for poking my nose in your venture but it is very exciting. Good luck! Thanks for your videos!

Piglet blowing bubbles in slop! 🙂

Good morning. Stay warm.

I can tell Hillary appreciates the simple farm life. It's good to see you share a dream. Hard work but definitely satisfying.

Mornin Pete, keep smilin

Piggys blowing bubbles in their slop.....too funny...great video, really enjoyed it. Thanks Pete..!!

I am looking forward to your new project.

Pete my kids and I love the show!

Hello all from Siesta Key Florida

“A Cut Above Purebred Piglets” I like the sound of that Pete!

Bottoms up…I’m going for ☕️🥩myself‼️ Your site is a great start for anyones day.

Started shivering watching this! Funny my late sister use to say We wait to eat like one pig waits for another!" teehee

I can't wait to see the new pig barn build!!

Sounds like a great idea with the new pig venture. I wish you much success with it! Will be fun to watch you develop it.

The cattle must love winter. No flies!

Happy Thanksgiving Pete, Hillary, and family!

Good thinking Pete, flow with the market demands!👍

Oh Pete - it's a great idea to start the feeder pig business. I kind of knew you were in awe of that enclosed barn where you went to get the piglets. I'm not surprised, it was a nice set-up. I'm a business advisor and say - GO FOR IT!!! You and Hillary and the family have a wonderful Thanksgiving and we'll see you back soon!

Pete! Sorry to hear about Oreo! 😕 I really liked her markings. Happy Thanksgiving to the Larsons!!

great content thanks

Even with your freezing face I can see the joy in your eyes! I'm excited for you. New Pig Venture - woot woot woot! :)

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours

I'm so glad I get to experience your morning chores. I am moving from OR back to WI to start my life goal of running a regenerative agriculture farm. I aspire to be as cheerful and do the same hard work as you. Thank you Pete!

Build it. Do it. Choose breeds that do well in your region. Maybe even a couple boutique/ specialized breeds for the restaurant industry. Good money there.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving EVERYONE!

Hey man after my own heart I too think Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday . Like you idea of upping the ante when I was on farm in Pa. as a boy we raised registered yorkshires and iots been a long time ago but from what I remember we did qite well. Good luck on your adventure

Sounds like a good opportunity

Love the idea of the feeder pigs. One more thing that will help your local community with quality stock. Can’t wait to see the new building for them.

Is it so! I can't believe it. FIRST to comment. Next to be first for thumbs up. GREAT JOB! ,

I really like the chore videos around the farm. Sounds like a good idea on the good quality heritage pig breeding too. It’s definitely an untapped market!

I'm excited for your new venture. Can't wait to see how it goes

This is architectural farming! I can't wait to see this.

OMGOSH!!! The piglet nose bubbles were too cute!!! 😂❤

Watching for years. You are a fine and decent man. Built the farm the correct way. Best of luck in new venture and waiting for updates and future successes.

Yes Pete, build a Coverall and sell feeder pigs! You’ll have boars and sows to supply plenty of piglets to raise out or to sell. I think you’ll make money on this!

I look forward to seeing what you end up doing regardless, thanks for sharing.

Hey Pete, I really enjoy your videos... Just recently they've started popping up in my KZfaq feed, I had never heard of you nor did I know where you are located. The first video I saw was the one where your neighbor (Adam Buck) helped you go pick up a tractor, I thought to myself "I used to have a neighbor named Adam Buck" then I saw the NY tag on the vehicle and the landscape looked right. So I had to look you up and sure enough. I grew up 8 miles dew east of you, on Salt Road. (Romasoda Farm) it's now owned by the Kelly's Small world. Needless to say, your regional phrases and foods are not lost on me. 😂

So excited about the new farm venture!!!! Can't wait to see the process come to life.

Hi Pete, the new pig venture sounds like a great idea, good luck. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and be safe.

Im excited to see where the new venture takes you. Good luck. Thanks to you and a handful of other channels on youtube this year I raised 3 hogs myself and am already looking to expand further in the future.

Ps.. I love the chore videos. When I come home stressed and even sad from work... (healthcare) I hear your voice and feel peaceful and safe again. Thank you.

What an awesome idea Pete and Hilary. Good luck on the new venture.

Their are a lot of channels out there but i watch this one all the time love hearing what you have to say

Good to see you Pete. Go inside and warm up!!! Happy Thanksgiving!

I like the idea of the breeder pigs. It will be fun to see you design and work out the workflow for the care of the breeder pigs.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope your holiday is stuffed with love.

I think that would be an amazing venture. Definitely bridges the gap for your community. Thanks for sharing.

Happy turkey day Pete and family!

third! OK, the edit after... We used to sling the barn hose over the main beam, then after disconnecting we would pull it out and back, then leave it up there. never froze. Easy as pie. Still gotta do the field ones the old way, though. (Or use a tree limb if one is close.) What is with always at least one pig blowing bubbles? Mine named Bacon loves blowing bubbles.

You and your family have a great Thanksgiving. God bless

Great idea for the pigs.

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, his mercy endures forever. Amen.

Happy Thanksgiving 😊.. God bless you and your family 👪 ❤️..

Go for it!!

Yay! Loving the new expanded feeder pig venture.

Diversify is the game to keep being successful on your farm. Good luck with your new adventure (you know your going to do it). I hope you and yours have a great turkey day!

Great video and I'm glad to see you dodged the snow storm. I'm looking forward to the new pig venture.

Glad you ain’t having to deal with that lake affect snow I couldn’t imagine having 6 ft of snow lol if they called for that in my area I’d have to leave before it came with my health I’d not be able to make it praying for everyone in the area affected

I commented a couple weeks ago that breeding pigs to sell as feeders would be a good idea. You paid $100 a pig for low quality stock. Now imagin what a quality pure breed or hybrid pig would go for...money to be made for sure! I no doubt think this will be a fun and fulfilling venture for you. Please keep us updated and document as much as possible. Thank you for all that you do and share with the world!

I’m sorry to hear about Oreo. 😞 For me, it’s hard, even though they aren’t pets, they still weigh on my mind. I’m quite excited to hear about your future pigventure! That will be fun (for us viewers) and hopefully bring some profitability to the pork side of the business.

Love the new venture idea. Will make the next couple years really interesting on the channel. Good call for the channel too!

that is a great idea, go for it

The best of luck with the pigs. It will be exciting to see how it goes.

Thanks for sharing you morning with us Pete. Nothing better to sit in the warmth of my office and watch you guys struggle with the cold. Your videos make the coffee even better. Keep up the great work. Your philosophy is always right on.

Man I love your videos. You two are such a good caregiver of livestock. I have a neighbor like you on my farm. Little farms are the best

I think that’s a great idea. I think you have a discerning clientele that is willing to pay more for a quality product. Heritage breeds in livestock are all the rage today. Best wishes!

I Thankful for this channel and all you stand for and do!! God Bless you and your lovely family!! HAPPY Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving from Ontario Canada Pete and Hiliary 🇨🇦 🇱🇷

Can't wait to see the new pig building up and running.

I think it's a Great Idea!! Good Luck!! Have a Great Evening!! 😊❤🌹

happy thanks giving pete and hillary and god bless your family.

Good idea Pete, look forward to the new pig facility videos.

Catching up with what we've missed....all sounds great...anxious to watch the transitioning

Good evening and good health, Peter, to you and your household and the animals you take care of, may God protect you and take care of you 🌹

A Very Happy Thanksgiving to you Pete and your family....

You answered my question before I asked it ! Sounds like a viable venture, looking forward to seeing how it develops.

I think your just the family to do this right. Thanks for another great video.

Hope u have a great THANKGIVING

❤🎉Congratulations 🎊 and continued Blessings to you and your families and farm. You all ate great.

I know you don't have the room but my neighbor raises hogs and cattle and all the manure goes into a giant tank. In the tank methane builds up and is stored and powers a generator that feeds all his barns. The liquid out of the tank is sprayed on his fields and the solids are processed into pellets and bagged and sold as fertilizer. It took his a couple of years to get the parts and build everything but his farm is almost completely off-grid now.

Please expand your pig operation! Not only will it be fun for us to watch but you are right people are starting to raise their own food.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you

We have to deal with the extreme hot weather here in Texas during the Summer. I am glad we don't have to deal with the cold weather you have Pete.

One of my favorite channels!

Love the new plans! :) Good luck and I'm really looking forward to seeing your idea being realized in a new building.

Love your pig dreams. Can't wait to watch you bring it together!

I hope you do that mate it sounds a good idea go for it good luck with and all the best mate got the future ahead.

…what a great plan Pete ! and the piggies will like it too !

always good to see the morning chores over and over again and your indomitable spirit always shines.

I'll enjoy watching you improve to be more productive for the pig community. You're channel is one of my favorites to watch, you are very calming for me.

The home renovation videos were fun. Will await the potential changes on the farm with anticipation. Thanks for the entertaining content.

Always enjoy your feeding chores. I agree that thinking about raising feeder pigs could be a great idea and you know it will be quality! 🇨🇦

Sure is nice to see Peanut! Good luck with your new venture!

When you were picking up your feeders, I was impressed by how it was set up. It looked really nice and easier to maintain for sure. You have done what needs to happen, recognize a need, come up with a solution to fill that need, and you WILL be successful. GO FOR IT!!!

Best of luck with your proposed new adventure!! Great video as always !

Happy Thanksgiving enjoy your day
