Hi Mel and Gary, thats correct what you heard about Canada. Things need to change and manufacture more things in our Countries. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

❤ Good luck today with ORGANIZING the clothes and making space for the new ones. You're kids are growing so fast.

Good afternoon Mel and Gary I hope that your back is much better Gary

Hi Mel & Gary! I remember the party line & I was 8 at the time. You guy’s rest. ❤🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s

The industrial era of our country was pretty must decimated by the '70s because of our lousy inept gov't and their regulations/policies. I miss my childhood years as well when things were wayyyy more personal and better. Growing up in the '90s was great. We still do not have cell phones and will never get them. We don't use any wifi. We stopped using a microwave about 15 years ago. We don't eat any GMO foods..GMOs are very easy to avoid.

I'm quite interested in that relish you were talking about in one of the last 1 or 2 videos. I think you said it had carrots, radish, and ummm I can't recall. . . It sounded really good when you were talking about it.

Thanks for sharing✌️🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My mother lived thru the depression and made clothes from flour sacks. I made a few things back in the 50's from flour sacks still at that time.

Enjoyed watching even though it's late. Never to be forgotten. Love y'all

Hi Mel & Gary - I would love to see how you prepare and cook your rabbit meat!! 😊

MEL IM SO HAPPY YOUR MOM GOT HER NEW BABY. SO SWEET LOVE YOU ANNAMAY

Good morning Coffee… have a great day…

Hi Mel and Gary

Batch cooking is great. Loved it with my 3 boys. Crock pot is a best friends.

Hi Mel and Gary, thanks for sharing!

I can't wait for your escabeche. I love how it is so changeable.

I might have brought this up before so sorry if this is a repeat. You have so many eggs you should make homemade egg noodles. Another chance to home make something so it’s higher quality. You can try a small batch, then go big as dried noodles last a very long time. I’m not sure if this would work but I’m thinking of trying to use the bread maker to knead the noodle dough so the gluten is very springy. This summer I’m going to challenge my 15 year old to help me make home made ramen noodles. (We don’t have eggs like you do for egg noodles) He’d live on ramen if I’d let him. I’m always looking for things where I can control the ingredients. I feel like it’s healthier that way. Always love watching your homestead grow. Have fun in the kitchen, no matter what you decide to make! ❤

Hey Mel want to hear something funny . It’s funny that you brought up the Party line. I used to listen in on the old ladies talk about the party that they went to the night before. It was so funny to listen in on there conversations . They were talking about how the old men was talking about their new love for old women lol ❤love you guys

Look into American Bress for dual purpose birds that are sustainable. Texas Deb

Hello Mel and Gary. Mel did you see my message yesterday regarding the donuts? Share your recipe and I will see if I can work some magic on the moisture. 😂

did U hear what Mel said? "it's awesome hanging out with Gary. He's so much fun." (digital 7:0 to 7:10) THAT is the sweetness of Mel. Luv these two love-birds.

Good Morning guys! I'm thinking you have to take the things from one era and things from the new era and balance your life as best you can.

A lot of my mothers clothes were made from flour sacks and they had to wear them or do without because they were poor

My dad use to own a feed store I remember as kid and teen he alway got the baby chick's from hoover hatchery

Hey Mel.. I’d love to learn some of the easiest meals your family loves!

I love watching you and Gary too Mel I enjoy listening to your videos if I’m not actually watching any time you talk about the different experiences with living in Arkansas it’s interesting because here in Mississippi it’s pretty dull to me

You can put your chicken meat in jars if you have a canning container I’ve seen people put their meats in jars and put it according to your meal so you don’t waste any and process your meats I saw where someone processed turkey meat the same way by putting it into jars

I HAVE ALWAYS COOKED IN BIG BATCHES AND PACKAGED MEALS AND LABELED AND FREEZE BEFOR YOU KNOW IT THE WHOLE FREEZER IS FULL OF A LARGE VARIETY OF MEALS AND I KEEP DOING IT AND ROTATE MEALS IN THE FREEZER ANNAMAY

Good Morning! Have a great day and Weekend coming up.

Meat birds and layers are different, layers will be tougher.

Good afternoon 🌞 have a great weekend 🙏🇺🇲💖

Mel, I have been wanting a bread machine, can't find one here. What brand is yours, where did you get it and do you like it? Do you recommend it?

I had a few Cornish that would break their legs because of their weight

Back in the day, we would raise cornish cross for meat, 100 chicks at a time starting in May . Another 100 chicks in June, and 100 in July. In part of our barn hay mow, we had 3 grow out sections on concrete floor covered with fluffed up hay. Small room for heat lamps, 1/3 of big room for the 4 to 8 week group, and finish them out in the big birds' side. We culled the rusters for freezer camp ourselves. Hens went to freezer camp at 10 to 12 pounds, or until their legs start to go out! We also had our feedmill mix our own chicken feed recipe. I miss those days.😢

Good Morning 🌞 recipe for radish and carrots please share

👋👋 Hi guys!

Good afternoon

Did you and country road cure ever butcher the roosters you wanted to? I would love to see how you pickle all your garden stuff.

Pickled Eggs, please please! Ms. Mel, I will bend the knee.

Reach out to Cassie Walker , the crazy chicken lady, at Walker Farm Fam for information about chicken breeds.

Kids here these days get into too much trouble and they are constantly on Tik Tok and it’s not good for some kids because they get into too much trouble with the negative talking

I wonder why the Cornish Hen's life span is so short. Do you know Gary and Mel?

Be careful of your back Gary carrying g heavy bags of feed!!!

Gary the meat birds I was telling you about at the meet up is called Rudd Rangers from Hoovers hatchery I paid 143.00 for 40 unsexed birds and you do have to feed them 4-6 weeks longer but the also don’t eat as much as the Cornish cross birds I got 40 birds on April 11th it is May 22 and I still have all 40 birds and they are growing very good. The website says they will be between 8-11 pounds in 12-14 weeks

Skeptical

🙋‍♂️👍❤️

Apologies Gary, but CC chickens are not GMO. They are hybrids. Plenty of available info on this if y'all are interested. More likely that the feed y'all are buying is GMO. Anyways...keep up the good work.

hi! i saw on another youtube channel were a guy made his own chicken feeder, he grab a pvc pipe and then placed a bend on that pvc pipe and on that bend then he placed a obstacle in form off a small wood thingy so only half off the hole on the bend was exposed then he screw the whole pvc pipe on the wall and then he pour the chicken food in the pvc pipe and when the chickens was hungry then they could go to the pvc pipe and eat from that bend on the pvc pipe. basically take 1 pvc pipe then in the end of that then put a i think 40 or 60 bend then put a 90 bend pvc pipe, on the end off the 90 bend pvc pipe then put a wooden obstacle so the food dont go everywere and then you have the automatic feeder i saw. you can make your own form off that automatic chicken feeder but i do hope you understand what i mean?

First

Mel, Have you thought about doing a cookbook with all your wonderful recipes and things you make, I think it would be a best seller

HI MEL and GARY!!

Sorry, but there must be a better way for two people to engage in conversation and giving the other person a chance to say something without talking over them!!! I just left this video because my system will just not take it, by "it" I mean the continual talking over each other and not being able to understand either one. Come on guys, I like to listen to you talk and love your videos, but can't u fix this????

Making your own clothes is a great skill but takes a lot of time. ❤😊💪❤️👍🐓🐓🌺🌸🌷🪻🍀🌼☘️😁

Good afternoon
