You are right that 504 is purring like a kitten.

Your farm chores never get old. Thanks for sharing.

Besides getting a big laugh out of the pigs zooming around, my biggest laugh was at myself for taking so long to get your joke about “open mike”. 🤣😂😝. I must have had a perplexed look on my face for a few seconds..then I got it and had a good laugh. 😂. Enjoyed the visit. I agree with your ending thoughts...I don’t know where we are going with this. Stay safe and well Pete. 👍❤️

little cute baby piglet’s are the best! Good morning from Alaska!!

Pete, we just experienced a rare windy storm here at 7500 feet southern Rockies. Took out our county's electricity grid for 3 days. We were prepared with just enough solar marine batteries to power our deep freezers and two refrigerators full of our harvest. My wife tells me that your video about solar was the first she has seen that explained it in useful terms for the lay person. Thank you, Pete. Best Holidays and Solstice to you and your lovely family.

Pete, l could watch your vids all day...so so entertaining...so professional...great job..Merry Christmas to you and your family.

The Spanish Flu never left and we survived.

Out on the ranch baling wire was the number one necessity. One of the cowboys was complaining that they were going to the plastic twine. Then Papa in his great wisdom. Said sonny your not thinking it through. all this new stuff is made out of plastic so you need that plastic twine to fix it. Makes perfect sense to me anyhow!

thanks for showing the piglets. love watching them.

love the references to Hobbit/LOTR "Last year the pigs were like the dwarves in Moria and dug too much". GREAT!

I Love Your Tractors 🚜!! I Pray everyday for peace for Family and the World!! God Bless!! 🙏⚘❤

I had a Rhode Island Red named Izzy, took her everywhere in an old round hat box that I cut a hole in the top of for her to stick her head up out of. She was as well known as any other animal or bird in the county. I named her Izzy because when she was little a friend asked, ‘Izzy a hen or Izzy a rooster?’ I love that. The piglets are so cute!

Thanks Pete, It's a shame to have to wear a mask. There's no sign of expression or communication at all! I live in Tn. and a local bank was robbed a few days ago by some dude with a paper mask. The funny part is the guy took off on foot and deposited what he stole into the banks ATM. 🤣

Pete doesn't have a change a thing about the format of his videos and we'll all probably continue watching them until the end of time. So relaxing. We've seen it all and yet like an Alzheimer's patient each new episode is like rediscovering the joy, peace, serenity all over again. Stressful city life sucks. Thanks for the therapeutic videos.

I honestly think todays joke is my favorite and It’s a perfect, dry response when asked “what have you been up to?” - btw I stupidly asked my 83 yr old Mom that and she said “about 5’7” “. 🙄 I stepped right in it 💩🤓 bless her ❤️

Feel good moment over for another day. I recall the sound of our bullocks all chewing the cud happily on cold winter days, very rewarding fkor the few minutes you had time to notice.

I got 2 huge things to say 1. I’m in NJ and myself kids and a bunch of my friends got covid this past week. All vaxed, some had boosters. It’s a cold now, sinus issue and low fever for a few days. Most of us are over 55 and all fine. Seriously, my wife is a dr and vp for a big pharma company, she totally agrees and most of her colleagues agree it’s over. 2. Saw an ad while watching your video bashing small farms. It was how Bayer, the big phama/chemical company are developing fake beef to save planet from climate change. They say small farms are biggest contributor to green house gases. Now that is so irresponsible by them and total bullshit. Natural grass fed meat is one of the best things humans can possibly eat. Fake meat is actually some of the worst things anyone can eat.

Pete many moons ago knew an old, long time pig farmer, He's been gone long time. one thing he always did was starting two weeks before sows littered he gave em charcoal all they wanted, the natural stuff they eat. Not Brickett's . He rairly lost any piglets. realizing now been many 50 years. so call it old wise tails. he raised some mighty fine hogs in his day. Really enjoy the farm side of your Videos.

"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal" May you and your family and friends enjoy a good Christmas and we hope for all a much more favourable 2022 in every regard!

Merry Christmas to you and your family 👪 I really love your channel ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ it rocks!! I love seeing you and Hillary work really hard to provide for your community!! You've inspired us to be more local and SMALL FARMERS!! Blessings to you and your family Pete!

Pete and Hillary, MERRY CHRISTMAS! To you and your children. GOD BLESS YOU!

Life goes on! Make it a great there!

I thank your tractor’s sexy!!! Lol you know that song!!! It sounds nice bc you my friend are a master mechanic! Piglets are the cutest babies on the farm.

Oh lordy! Open mike night!!! Laughed my butt off.

I just found this channel a few weeks ago. It's cathartic. I'm from New Jersey and my sister lives in Upstate NY. I've lived in rural NE Thailand for the past 18 years and agree completely with your final sentiments. I'm glad that I'm surrounded by nature rather than people.

The new bedding piglet happy dance is great!

My wife and I have just stopped using the "C" word. We are both retired healthcare workers and have independently researched how to survive this and survive we have. Hope you and Hillary are doing the same. Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you and yours from Saskatchewan. Covid is forever and we have to live with it and get back to normal.

Our favorite chicken is the oldest one and only survivor of the original 12 eggs we ordered. ‘Lucky’ is the tamest and friendliest of the coop.

I hand raised chickens as a boy. All our chickens would allow us to pick them up. I had a bared rock rooster, Speckle, who was turkey sized...10 pounds or so. He loved when I would carry him around the yard. I always liked how chickens move the heads when you walk while holding them...like they were walking.

Love the little piggers🐖

Many a true word we are so lucky to be living free. Unlike so many others that are under the cosh. .

Great video checking on all the critters.

Great video Pete, seeing the pigs reminded me of when I took of the pigs & bedded them with straw. You could put a half bale of straw in the pen and the pigs would level it out.

The older (little) pigs reminds me of little baby goats running and playing around. Nice video and great ending to it. I keep to myself, as much as possible and try not to let all the crap that's thrown at us change or affect me. I lead a simple life alone.

All is well here. Have a good day Pete,Hillary family.

WE have a B tractor and I drove that when I was 8 years old on the farm. Since is was a small engine, I could crank start it real easy and I learned how to hold the crank in case it would kick back so I would not get hurt.

I'll keep praying for the New York and the other blue states. I'm grateful that I live and teach in Florida where we have our freedoms and choices. God Bless America!!!

Wish I was young enough to start farming. But I am 83 years young. Can't do that kind of work anymore without being laid up for a few days. Wish I could. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. If I get the chance to get up to visit my relatives in NY, I hope to slide over to the Farm Market to see you guys and have a chat.

Hope your sell out at the market😁 love the animals and your messages are always good! Stay warm and healthy.

We have a saying at work “things never get better, they always get worse”

Watching a fence get installed was an very interesting experience. Your experiments with fly control is a hoot. Garlicky beef of the hoof! PreSeasoned beef. Love it.

Great Day Pete! I love your take on life. Bring on the MD videos, and the run run run ….. I Can’t wait. Good luck at market today!

Run, run, run, run! I can't believe this is going to be the 3 generation of piglets since I've been watching. Run, run, run, run!

Happy Holidays Pete! Thanks so much for your channel.. I’m a big fan on 5 acres in Eastern Kansas! 🐖🐄🐓♥️

I totally understand the sentiment from the end of the video. Here in WA we have had a never ending mask order since the beginning, with one 2 week break in July. It sure irks me to see the same dribble being pushed that obviously hasn't worked so far. I'm all for voluntary sacrifice for the greater good, but it has to be backed up with common sense and best practice, security theatre doesn't solve anything. Thanks for the video, I enjoyed it.

OPEN MIKE ! You are a sick puppy , love your sense of humor. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family .❤️🇨🇦

Great Day Pete! I love your take on life. Bring on the MD videos and the run run run. I can’t wait.

You are truly blessed with the farm life for multiple reasons! Those piglets are hilarious:)))

Thank you thank you thank you for sharing your life.

Ezra is my kind of cat and it looks like you're his kind of human.

I always wanted to live on a farm (for a while, anyway) and your videos are the next best thing. Thanks. Pete!

Pete the problem I have with watching your videos is , they make me wish I could be a farmer! I love the way you treat your animals. I remember something my dad used to say, “You can tell a lot about the character of a man by the way he treats the animals “. You and Hillary are good people.Those little pigs are so cute! Merry Christmas!

I love watching the piglets too Pete, and I can’t forget your puppy cows 🐮! stay safe

Hie Pete sad we have Omicron in southern Africa, can't sell much this festive season yet had a thousand broiler chickens

Regarding the piglet, I guess it’s similar to most things. We raise sheep and , generally, if the ewe rejects her lamb, it’s because she knows there’s something wrong with it . Often, we can save them, but often we can’t and when we do, they don’t amount to much and you surely don’t want them in your breeding pool.

I agree and Someday I'm hoping my family will be the same way! May God bless you and yours from me and mine

Oooh its almost that time of year again! RUN RUN RUN!

Solid, Pete.... solid.

I really like how you care and love the animals you have on the farm. Verne Johnson Farmall kid 63

I really like your channel a lot

good morning pete it took me a few secons to get your open mike night joke ha ha sorry to hear about the little piglet i guess that nature have a great day at the markets tomorrow keep up the great videos aussie geoff

Yes your right, it's better than watcing the TV, still I'm watcing them on TV. Hehe

Looks like a nice day.

What about a dry erase board attached to top of each freezer? Can list contents, wont have to remember each freezer

I was thinking at some point getting an electric tailgate for your truck so you don't have to keep lifting those freezers. Maybe someday, Maybe?? I love Miss Buck, she looks like my daughter's rooster Bartholomew. He is about that old too. 💕

Ezra-such a good looking kitty!!

Thank you, Pete for your beautiful videos. The pigs are so much fun. So sorry about the little runt..he was so tiny. Your animals are like friends to you..they sense your calmness and love for all creatures. God bless. Have a wonderful Christmas with your family.

You're right, great TV

Nice video Pete. I love watching the little pigs kick around. Lol I love watching all the animals.

Just loved watching the piglets. Hilarious. My wife and I were cracking up, and wishing we were there in person. So cute and entertaining. Loved your 'autopsy' joke also. Merry Christmas.

Sad about that runt, but it is how things usually go for the runt. I agree with your final sentiments... They have no end game. There is too much for certain ones to gain from the continuing saga of fear from every new variant and more shots for everyone. I don't see it ending anytime soon. Back in 1018-1920 with the Spanish flu, people got it, some died, those who survived moved on with "normal" life after that. It is still around but we all became resistant so we don't die anymore. As always, you, sir, are living the dream. Keep it up.

Great joke Pete! Haha, ye got me on that one. And yes self sufficiency should now be a priority for everyone.

Keep up the good work!!!

There is no better friend on the farm to sit and relax with once and awhile than an outside cat.

A little thought on you feeding the cows cracked corn, we feed our steers boiled corn cooked in a crock pot and it does really good. The steers don’t really like eating corn in its natural form because it is hard for the rumen to digest and when it gets bad enough, they bloat.

Those piglets are a hit! Love them. And the cat, just getting in there for pets!

Open mike night!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Best joke ever!!

I have a friend who has a hen that's nine or ten years old and named One Wing. The name is literal because she survived an attack from a dog but lost a wing in the process when she was about six months old.

Hope Open Mike Night is fun!!!!!!!! Thanks for your Humor !

You got yourself a heat hog there. You got yourself a heat hog there. Merry Christmas Pete and family.

👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🙏🏻 Enjoyed! Your animals sure do "love" U guys! Stay safe and well!

I really enjoy listening to you,,,,you have a calmness and tell your story well,,,love your joke also,,,🇺🇸😍

Tractor 🚜 looks really nice!! Your farm is really DOPE!!!

You’re a joy to listen too Pete.

Pete, old boy! Your theory about one door opening and one door closing. Works pretty good with adults. But when you're talking about children? The old adage was were you born in a barn. My children would say no but we were born on a farm yeehaw. Sad to say I've grown children that still have a hard time remembering to close the door. Would be nice if they'd have it the other way and walk into a closed door a couple of times. LOL

Pete Iwatch your video as soon as I see them uploaded. Always enjoy watching. Now does anybody else find the blue loader on the red tractor a little aesthetically jarring? Lol I'm surprised that hasn't made it on the honorable mentions portion of your chore list.

Usually protein puts the lbs on both cow and pigs when I want to slow them down I lower the protein

Pete, can you hang some sheets of clear plastic, visqueen, up to block the wind for the piglet area in the barn? They would get light and it would take away the wind-chill.

Pete THANKS for sharing your life with us I hope you and the family are doing well… Until next video keep up the good work…

Cheers from down under Mate. Here's to you and your family!

I drove by the farmers market today but there was a line of cars waiting to go in so I skipped it. Someday I’ll stop in and say hi 🙂

Such a happy film....Merry Christmas Pete and Family. God Bless.

It's very soothing to watch the animals eat. I use to do that all the time

My son and I were in kotzebue Alaska the night before 911 when I was at Coffee the next morning that's exactly what I said to the guys our lives are forever changed just like now

Thanks for sharing

Pete, think of it like this: "When one door closes, walk down the hall, another will be open."

"'open Mike night'' .. :) took me a while to figure out, I was thinking mic, but great Dad joke, one of your best Dad jokes actually, love these videos

No it is bad….ha ha ha good for a chuckle

i appreciate your channel very much..and the messages you send..ty, and keep'em coming Sir!
