Major farm update with pond build, crawfish catch & cook, and more! I go night fishing for crawfish at a mountain lake after picking up my very first goats and bringing them back to the farm. I'll be out Trout fishing again soon and will be sure to catch more crayfish / crawdads.

Thank you, you’ve gotten our whole family into fishing which is great because we live in the heart of the Rockies in CO where there is gold metal fishing! She doesn’t 100% understand that you’re not our friend and asked often if we can go fishing with you 😂 thanks again for the educational aspect of your channel!

@redeyestones3738 10 ай бұрын

If that were my spot, I'd paint that basketball court pavement white, cover with shade cloth, and build a bunch of raised garden beds. Have it screened in, and have roll up/down clear plastic, so you could use it as a green house in the winter. Raising goats is epic! Never a dull moment. You need to build a good trimming station. A bench like structure for the goat to stand on while you sit, and trim their hooves. You build a little harness that you can clip their collar to, and put a bowl of treats like fresh snipped tree growth or fruit, to distract them from the trimming of the hooves. This also desensitizes the females, if you plan to milk them for cheese in the future.

I visited my sister in march. She had 20 Battery hens (ones deemed useless by the egg production farms). She buys them and locates them in her farm, they still laid eggs, just not as often, but from her work as a Nurse in a hospital, she takes all the leftover food that will be thrown out and the neighbours she gives them buckets for their waste scraps. As soon as I would walk out to give them the scraps, two of the chickens would fly up on my shoulder to try to get the best pickings. I had to brush them off, but Chickens / chooks are good value. You never need to worry about getting rid of food scraps. Her dogs would run in and grab the bones etc. Nothing was wasted.
